Fervid interests on nanoparticles are increasing within the scientific and non-scientific communities, as they are utilised in food and non-food applications. The versatility of emerging applications of nanoparticles makes them potentially harmful to the food, healthcare and environment sectors, and thus necessitates the development of nanonutraceuticals from nutritional substances such as antioxidants, vitamins, fatty acids, fibres, probiotics and prebiotics. This review excavated state of the art on nanotechnology applications such as gold and selenium particles, nanolayers, nanobeads, nanoemulsions and nanofibers to probiotics and prebiotics for the synthesis of anticancer, antimicrobial, antioxidant and photo-reactive products among others, and finally delved into other noteworthy considerations like safety. It is concluded that available literature on the current status of nanoprobiotics and prebiotics are exhaustive, despite their huge potentials and applications. 相似文献

This paper is a rider to the reported high gamma radiation fields around certain ordinary waste sites in Lagos, Nigeria. Exposure groups in the vicinity of these sites are susceptible to radiation risks, among other possibilities of health and environmental hazards, as a result of the waste volumes. Urbanisation requires environment-conscious waste management, especially e-wastes. This study relates Nigeria’s sub-standard waste management to the wider world. There is need for an integrated solid waste management approach. 相似文献

The early detection of diabetic nephropathy (DN) in mice is necessary for the development of drugs and functional foods. The purpose of this study was to identify genes that are significantly upregulated in the early stage of DN progression and develop a novel model to non-invasively monitor disease progression within living animals using in vivo imaging technology. Streptozotocin (STZ) treatment has been widely used as a DN model; however, it also exhibits direct cytotoxicity to the kidneys. As it is important to distinguish between DN-related and STZ-induced nephropathy, in this study, we compared renal responses induced by the diabetic milieu with two types of STZ models: multiple low-dose STZ injections with a high-fat diet and two moderate-dose STZ injections to induce DN. We found 221 genes whose expression was significantly altered during DN development in both models and identified serum amyloid A3 (Saa3) as a candidate gene. Next, we applied the Saa3 promoter-driven luciferase reporter (Saa3-promoter luc mice) to these two STZ models and performed in vivo bioluminescent imaging to monitor the progression of renal pathology. In this study, to further exclude the possibility that the in vivo bioluminescence signal is related to renal cytotoxicity by STZ treatment, we injected insulin into Saa3-promoter luc mice and showed that insulin treatment could downregulate renal inflammatory responses with a decreased signal intensity of in vivo bioluminescence imaging. These results strongly suggest that Saa3 promoter activity is a potent non-invasive indicator that can be used to monitor DN progression and explore therapeutic agents and functional foods. 相似文献

The art and science of software release planning 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Incremental development provides customers with parts of a system early, so they receive both a sense of value and an opportunity to provide feedback early in the process. Each system release is thus a collection of features that the customer values. Furthermore, each release serves to fix defects detected in former product variants. Release planning (RP) addresses decisions related to selecting and assigning features to create a sequence of consecutive product releases that satisfies important technical, resource, budget, and risk constraints. 相似文献

The corrosion behaviour of 6082 aluminium alloy was studied by measuring the electrochemical impedance spectra and electrode polarization curves. After the electrochemical tests, a microstructural analysis of the samples was conducted by using optical microscopy and electron scanning microscopy techniques to determine the corrosion mechanism. The results show that the Nyquist plot of the electrochemical impedance data in the NaCl solution consists of high- and low-frequency capacitive impedance loops. When ions are added to the NaCl etchant, the Nyquist plots of the electrochemical impedance data are composed of two different curves: a high-frequency capacitive impedance loop and a low-frequency inductive impedance loop. The corrosion current density increases with increasing concentration, and as a result, the corrosion resistance of the aluminium alloy decreases. The microstructures of 6082 aluminium alloy consist of Mg2Si secondary particles in a large α-Al matrix. Pitting corrosion initially occurs at the boundary between the matrix and secondary particles because the electrode potentials of the matrix and secondary particles are different. Then, corrosion paths develop along the network-like grain boundaries, and finally, massive network-like corrosion occurs throughout the entire alloy. 相似文献

The synthesis of monodispersed, starch-capped ZnSe nanoparticles via a facile, “green” and environmentally benign route at room temperature is being reported. The nanoparticles exhibited strong quantum confinement effect with respect to the bulk ZnSe. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image indicated that the particles were well dispersed and spherical in shape. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the ZnSe nanoparticles were of the wurtzite structure, with average particle diameter of about 3.50 nm. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum confirmed the presence of starch as passivating agent. 相似文献

Radioactive waste handling and disposal are a major topic in radiation protection. The comparative survey of gamma radiation exposure in the vicinity of some ordinary, general waste dumpsites in this study indicates that they could also pose radiation health hazards. The mean Absorbed Dose Rate (ADR) from all the dumpsites was 309 ± 2.12 nGy h?1. The ADR near the landfills was higher than those of e-waste, metal scraps and municipal solid waste dumpsites. The results also show that the waste dumps contribute to the gamma ADR in their vicinity. ANOVA revealed that ADR at different distances from each of the dumpsites had a statistical variation at the 0.05 significance level. The scavengers and occupants of shanties near the dumpsites receive annual effective doses above the value accepted worldwide average of 0.07 mSv. 相似文献
