The objectives of this study were to determine the
peritoneal clearance of vitamin B-6 and to evaluate the
vitamin B-6 and vitamin A status of children with chronic
renal failure undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal
dialysis (CAPD). Eight children aged 2 to 18 years
(mean 12) were included in the study....
During physiological ageing of seed potatoes, the stored tuber
undergoes certain biochemical changes which cause the breaking of
dormancy and the initiation of bud growth. The ageing process can
be manipulated through storage temperature and duration. Higher
temperatures usually accelerate seed tuber ageing. In order to
define the process of...
Maintaining the structural integrity of cell walls
largely determines the texture of fruit products during
freezing processes. Strawberries undergo major textural
changes when frozen, and varietal differences in quality
after thawing are not readily predicted from mechanical
and sensory testing of the fresh fruit. The objectives of
this study were...
