    There are increasing incidences of obesity, cardiovascular and other dietary related diseases as a result of the crave for ready-to-eat and processed foods. These foods lack adequate dietary fiber which contributes to these diseases. This study investigated the effects of “niri” chaffs (raw and roasted) as an extender on the nutritional, physiochemical, sensory and economics of beef sausages. All treatments were randomly assigned to minced beef by a completely randomized design. Raw and roasted “niri” chaffs were incorporated at 0, 5, 15 and 25% to minced beef. The Association of Official Analytical Chemist and the British Standard Institutes procedures were used to determine the proximate and sensory characteristics of the beef sausages, respectively. The results revealed significant (p<0.05) differences in some of the parameters determined. Raw and roasted “niri” chaffs extended beef sausages (extended products) generally had an improved (p<0.05) effect on fat (1.5-3.28%), ash (1.31-2.19%) and carbohydrate (2.06-20.81%) contents as compared to control. A decline (p<0.05) was observed in moisture content of beef sausages (62.34-21.52%) by the treatment of raw and roasted “niri” chaffs as compared to control. The protein contents of RaC 5% and RaC 15% (5% and 15% raw “niri” chaff beef sausages, respectively) were better (p<0.05) than the rests of the products. Extended products exhibited significantly (p<0.05) high calcium, iron and magnesium than control products; while potassium and zinc contents of beef sausages were improved by the treatment of 5% raw “niri” chaff than the control. pH values of products were in the range of 5.76-6.00. Raw chaffs extended products had higher grilling loss (5.4-25%) than roasted products (4-13.95%). Lipid peroxidation values showed that all “niri” chaffs extended products had exceedingly high (p<0.05) values than the control within the storage period with raw products being the most affected. The formulation cost saw an average cost reduction of Ghȼ (Ghanaian Cedi) 2.25 using raw and roasted “niri” chaffs for the sausages. This study reveals that raw and roasted “niri” chaffs have the potential for use as an extender in beef sausages

    Whittier House scrapbooks document Whittier House programs, events, and anniversary celebrations through newspaper clippings, lecture fliers, newsletters, event programs, and ticket stubs. Newspaper clippings are primarily from the Jersey Journal. There is also Whittier House fundraising materials, including pamphlets, appeal letters, brochures, and postcards. The Whittier House Social Settlement, the first settlement house in New Jersey, was established in Jersey City, N.J. (Hudson County) in 1894. Founded by Cornelia Foster Bradford, who would remain with the organization as headworker until 1926, Whittier House was based on the settlement house, Toynbee Hall, in England. Whittier House provided various recreational and educational programs, along with much needed social services, for the immigrant populations of Jersey City. Many of these successful services were used as models for large-scale social reform movements through the state. In 1935, the Whittier House was taken over by the Boys' Club of Jersey City

    A comparison between hippurate hydrolysis and multiplex PCR for differentiating Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni

    Species identification is important for epidemiological, clinical and treatment purposes. The aim of this study was to find out whether hippurate hydrolysis is a reliable test for differentiating between Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni. To achieve this, hippurate hydrolysis test was compared with multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction (mPCR) for their ability to speciate C. coli and C. jejuni. Eighteen Campylobacter strains from poultry samples were used for this study. The results from 17 of the 18 strains were in agreement with both methods. Thus, the hippurate hydrolysis test can be used for distinguishing C. jejuni from C. coli although occasionally some strains of C. jejuni may be mis-identified as C. coli

    The pages of this manuscript fragment are numbered 39 and 40 [a note on the recto states that these correspond to 296 in the printed text]; a pencil note at the top of the recto attributes the work to Captain Frederick Marryat [the novel alluded to may have been Marryat\u27s _Snarleyyow, or, The Dog Fiend_ (1837)].A popular novelist and author of children\u27s adventure fiction like _Masterman Ready_ (1841), a castaway tale, Marryat entered the navy as a teenager and by 1815 had risen to the rank of commander. He was active in the Anglo-Burmese war in 1823, after which he was made a CB and awarded the gold medal of the Royal Humane Society; Marryat was made a fellow of the Royal Society for his innovations in signaling
