When starches/proteins are added to the ceramic matrix, they originate pores whose morphology and sizes are varied. However, ceramic final properties are influenced by the interaction kinetics amongst particulate materials. This work was designed to analyze the interactions between proteins and disaccharides and their influence on the properties of...

Facing the worldwide increasing demand for edible oil and protein and their production deficit in many developing countries, we investigated the nutritional value of chuta (edible Jatropha curcas L.). Chuta is a perennial tropical and subtropical plant that survives in unfavorable environments. Lower inputs are required for chuta cultivation than f...

This study aimed to measure associations between gallbladder disease and protein intake patterns, separated by quantity and type (vegetable vs. animal), among postmenopausal women. Analyses were based on 130,859 postmenopausal women enrolled from 1993 to 1998 at 40 U.S. clinical centers in the Women's Health Initiative clinical trials and observati...

Background: Higher dietary acid load can result in metabolic acidosis and is associated with faster kidney disease progression in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the relationship between dietary acid load and incident CKD has not been evaluated. Methods: We conducted prospective analyses of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communiti...
The paper deals with the evaluation of the efficacy of both ammonium polyphosphate, APP, and alkaline lignin, AL, as suitable additives for the development of innovative and sustainable composites based on thermo-plasticized zein, TPZ. The chemical and physical interactions which occur between AL and APP and the secondary structure of thermo-plasti...

This study investigated the effects of protein sources for milk replacers on growth performance and serum biochemical indexes of suckling calves. Fifty Chinese Holstein bull calves with similar BW and age were randomly allocated to 5 groups (1 control and 4 treatments) of 10 calves in each group. Five types of milk replacers were designed to have t...
As folhas de mandioca podem ser consideradas fonte nutricional importante quando comparadas as outras hortaliças habitualmente consumidas. A composição química das folhas de mandioca mostra altos teores de proteínas, fibras e minerais. As folhas de mandioca ainda são pouco exploradas devido à falta de informações quanto ao aproveitamento como produ...

With aging, kidney function declines, as evidenced by reduced glomerular filtration rate. It is controversial whether or not high protein intake accelerates this decline. The aim of this study was to determine whether high protein intake was associated with declines in kidney function among older patients. We examined whether dietary protein is ass...
