Potato has contributed to human diet for thousands of years, first in the Andes of South America and then in the rest of the world. Its contribution to the human diet is affected by cooking, potato intake levels, and the bioavailability of potato nutrients. Generally, the key nutrients found in potatoes including minerals, proteins, and dietary fib...
Iron deficiency is a major public health problem worldwide, with the highest burden among children. The objective of this randomized efficacy feeding trial was to determine the effects of consuming iron-biofortified beans (Fe-Beans) on the iron status in children, compared to control beans (Control-Beans). A cluster-randomized trial of biofortified...
3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a widespread organic pollutant with persistent, mobile and high antimicrobial effects. Here, nanoFe(3)O(4) was firstly introduced into the anoxic biodegradation of TCP. It was found that nanoFe(3)O(4) significantly accelerated TCP biodegradation. The removal rate of TCP (100 mg L-1) increased from 83.03% to 98...

Low alloy steel was pack-borided at different processing temperatures (at 850, 950, and 1050°C) and times (2, 4, and 6 h). The microstructural characterisation of boronized steel showed the presence of three zones, namely boronized region containing finer grains and columnar geometry of (Fe, M)2B (where M = Cr, Mn, Mo, and Ni), transition zone, and...
Vanadium slag contains several critical elements like V, Ti, Cr, Fe and Mn. In our previous work, V and Cr have been enriched by selective chlorination, increasing from 10.05% to 14.95% and 5.84%-8.69% separately. V and Cr still maintain the trivalence state in molten salt. In the current work, the electrodeposition behaviors of V3+ and Cr3+ in NaC...

Highly toxic and flammable H2S gas has become an environmental threat. Because of its ability to efficiently remove H2S by oxidation, Thioalkalivibrio versutus is gaining more attention. Haloalkaliphilic autotrophs, like the bio-desulfurizing T. versutus, grow weakly. Weak growth makes any trial for developing potent genetic tools required for gene...
