Petit Gateau com recheio de doce de banana com e sem casca
No full textA busca por alimentos alternativos, visando o reaproveitamento de resíduos que seriam descartados, bem como a agregação de valor ao produto final com redução de custos e, a melhoria na qualidade nutricional do alimento possibilitou o desenvolvimento desse estudo para elaboração e posterior análise microbiológica, sensorial e físico-química de Petit Gateau com recheio de doce de banana com e sem casca. Nas análises microbiológicas, apenas o produto com casca apresentou contaminação, 0.3 NMP/g, para Coliformes a 30°C. Para os demais parâmetros, Coliformes a 45°C e Salmonela sp/25g, ambas as formulações apresentaram-se ausentes a contaminação. Sensorialmente, frente aos atributos analisados, não foram observadas diferenças significativas entre as formulações. Quanto as características físico-químicos, os valores médios encontrados para o produto sem casca foram 62.84% para umidade, 6.98% para cinzas, 7.77 para o pH, 9.9 para o °Brix, 0.55% para acidez, 17.94% para lipídeos e 2,6 N para textura. Para produtos com casca, os valores encontrados nas respectivas análises foram 65.55%, 7.53%, 7.66, 14.5, 0.55%, 16.01% e 1.5 N. Assim, Petit Gateau preparado com recheio de doce de banana com casca pode ser utilizado na indústria de alimentos como forma de minimizar desperdícios, reduzir custos e propiciar melhor qualidade nutricional do alimento
Le processus d’évolution vers l’incapacité dans la démence
No full textThe disablement process model (Verbrugge and Jette [ 1994]) can help to better understand and manage dementia. The disease is expressed by impairments in global cognitive processes (e. g. memory) which are responsible of functional limitations in generic cognitive tasks (e. g. to recall a list of words). These functional limitations are expressed by disability in instrumental, and then basic, activities of daily living. Genetic or environmental (e. g. education, nutrition) risk factors are predisposing characteristics which increase the risk of disease but they can also modulate its expression. Extra-and intra-individual factors are introduced factors which can speed up or slow down the disablement process. Intra-individual factors are positive (adaptation of activities) or negative (depression) strategies developed by the individuals in reaction to disease. Extra-individual factors are interventions by the health care system, informal or professional caregivers and society.Le modèle du processus d’évolution vers l’incapacité (Verbrugge et Jette [ 1994]) peut aider à une meilleure compréhension et prise en charge de la démence. La maladie s’exprime sous forme de déficiences des processus cognitifs globaux (ex: mémoire) qui entraînent des limitations fonctionnelles pour les tâches cognitives génériques (ex.: rappeler une liste de mots). Ces limitations fonctionnelles se traduisent par une incapacité dans les activités instrumentales, puis de base, de la vie quotidienne. Les facteurs de risque, génétiques ou environnementaux (niveau d’études, nutrition), sont des caractéristiques pré-existantes qui augmentent le risque de développer la maladie mais peuvent aussi en moduler l’expression. Des facteurs extra et intra-individuels agissent une fois la maladie exprimée pour accélérer ou ralentir le processus d’évolution vers l’incapacité. Les facteurs intra-individuels sont les stratégies positives (adaptation des activités) ou négatives (dépression) développées par les individus en réaction à la maladie. Les facteurs extra-individuels sont les interventions du système de soins, des aidants naturels ou professionnels et de la société en général.Barberger-Gateau Pascale, Fabrigoule Colette, Dartigues Jean-François.

No full textDetection of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods sampled from a catering service in Apulia, Italy
No full textOBJECTIVE:
Listeria monocytogenes is currently considered a relevant emerging food-borne pathogen. In particular, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) illustrates its widespread presence in different foods. In the present article, L. monocytogenes prevalence was estimated in cooked ready-to-eat foods sampled from a catering service in a Apulia city, southern Italy.
METHODS:
The study was carried out from January to June 2014 in according to Regulation (EC) No. 852/2004, and ISO 11290-1:1996/Amd.1:2004 methods.
RESULTS:
Listeria spp. was isolated in 8.3% of the samples: L. monocytogenes was identified with the highest prevalence in potato gateau (66.6%), followed by rice dishes (11.1%), Listeria innocua was isolated from potato purea (11.1%) and cooked vegetables (11.1%).
CONCLUSIONS:
These preliminary results confirm the diffusion of the microorganism in ready-to-eat products; therefore, strategies aimed at protecting the consumers should be adopted. First of all, correct hygiene procedures should be followed and then microbiological tests should be implemented in order to early detect Listeria spp. (not only LM) contamination in cooked foods
A randomised controlled trial investigating the effect of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on cognitive and retinal function in cognitively healthy older people: the Older People And n-3 Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (OPAL) study protocol [ISRCTN72331636].
No full textThe number of individuals with age-related cognitive impairment is rising dramatically in the UK and globally. There is considerable interest in the general hypothesis that improving the diet of older people may slow the progression of cognitive decline. To date, there has been little attention given to the possible protective role of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPs) most commonly found in oily fish, in age-related loss of cognitive function. The main research hypothesis of this study is that an increased dietary intake of n-3 LCPs will have a positive effect on cognitive performance in older people in the UK. To test this hypothesis, a double-blind randomised placebo-controlled trial will be carried out among adults aged 70-79 years in which the intervention arm will receive daily capsules containing n-3 LCP (0.5 g/day docosahexaenoic acid and 0.2 g/day eicosapentaenoic acid) while the placebo arm will receive daily capsules containing olive oil. The main outcome variable assessed at 24 months will be cognitive performance and a second major outcome variable will be retinal function. Retinal function tests are included as the retina is a specifically differentiated neural tissue and therefore represents an accessible window into the functioning of the brain. The overall purpose of this public-health research is to help define a simple and effective dietary intervention aimed at maintaining cognitive and retinal function in later life. This will be the first trial of its kind aiming to slow the decline of cognitive and retinal function in older people by increasing daily dietary intake of n-3 LCPs. The link between cognitive ability, visual function and quality of life among older people suggests that this novel line of research may have considerable public health importance
Semantic web-based knowledge acquisition using key events from news
No full textHermes is an ontology-based framework for building news personalization services, which focuses on news classification and knowledge base updating. The framework also allows for news querying and result presentation. In this paper, we focus on the techniques involved in keeping Hermes’ internal knowledge base up-to-date. Essentially, our semi-automatic approach to knowledge acquisition from news is based on ontologies and lexico-semantic patterns
