Effects of Cucumis Metuliferus (Cucurbitaceae) Fruits on Enzymes and Haematological Parameters in Albino Rats
African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 6 (22) pp. 2515-2518, 19 November, 2007 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB ISSN 1684–5315 © 2007 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Effects of Cucumis metuliferus (Cucurbitaceae) fruits on enzymes and haematological parameters in albino rats Noel N. Wannang*, Nanloh S. Jimam, Simeon Omale, Maxwell L. P. Dapar, Steven S. Gyang and John C. Aguiyi Department of Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Jos, Nigeria. Accepted 24 October, 2007 The effects of the powdered fruits of Cucumis metuliferus on enzymes and haematological indices were evaluated in adult albino rats. The study revealed a significant (P<0.05) dose-dependent decrease in white blood cells (WBC) count. 500 mg/kg body weight of the powdered fruit produced a significant (P<0.05) decrease in red blood cells (RBC), and an increase in platelet and haemoglobin (Hb), while there was an insignificant (P>0.05) decrease in clotting and bleeding time. 1000 mg/kg produced significant (P<0.05) increase in RBC, platelets, Hb and packed cell volume (PCV) values, and an insignificant (P>0.05) decrease in clotting and bleeding time. The biochemical parameters evaluation showed that 500 - 1000 mg/kg of the powdered fruit of the plant produced a dose-dependent significant (P<0.05) increase in the levels of serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and Total protein. This result showed that Cucumis metuliferus produced alterations in the haematological and biochemical indices evaluated. Keywords: Cucumis metuliferus, serum, enzymes, haematological. -

I starched and ironed the tablecloth and napkins, polished each glass, and set the table at least a day before the big event. I slavishly followed menus, trekking from store to store to find the exact ingredients. No recipe was too long, no meal too elaborate. In fact, I thrived on multistep dishes that required days of attention and care: puff pastry, layered pates and vegetable terrines, miniature sweet and savory tarts. I still love to have friends over, but something happened along the way. First one daughter was born, then a second. Part-time work evolved into a full-time job. Casual hobbies became passionate avocations. With all these activities fighting for my time, I had to change the way I cooked. My menus are simple and flexible now, and my parties mostly spur-of-the- moment. I love potlucks and shared suppers, and kids are always welcome. The food's fun, the atmosphere's casual, and family and friends always gravitate to the kitchen. -

Silverman and Purnell: Barefoot (Contessa) in the Kitchen Teaching Media Quarterly Volume 2, Edition 2 (Winter 2014): Teaching about Food and Media Barefoot (Contessa) in the Kitchen Overview and Rationale It is well known that popular culture represents and perpetuates the gender inequities that exist in our culture. Food media are no exception (Swenson, 2013). In fact, food media use gendered cultural norms to sell audiences their products (the shows, the cookbooks, the advertisements during the shows, etc.). In other words, food media commodify gender by selling audiences what they already understand to be true about gender as a way to increase profit (Forbes, 2013). Food media, and food television in particular, offer sites to examine the cultural struggles of gender. Both food and gender are intensely personal, social, and culturally specific phenomena (Barthes, 2013/1961). Further, television shapes the way we understand culture (Fiske, 2010). According to Cramer (2011): As a manifestation of culture, food is one of the most potent media for conveying meanings related to identity, ethnicity, nationhood, gender, class, sexuality and religion – in short, all those aspects of social, political and relational life that convey who and what we are and what matters to us. -
Refining of the Egusi Locus in Watermelon Using KASP Assays

CAGT, Athens, GA, 30602, USA c Department of Horticulture and Institute for Plant Breeding, Genetics & Genomics, University of Georgia, 1111 Plant Sciences Bldg., Athens, GA, 30602, USA ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Egusi watermelon (Citrullus mucosospermus), a close relative of sweet watermelon, is an economically important Citrullus lanatus crop grown in many West African countries for its protein and lipid rich edible seeds. Egusi watermelon seeds Citrullus mucosospermus have a thick, fleshy mucilaginous seed coat layer surrounding the seed coat which is unique to egusi watermelon. Egusi watermelon The egusi seed trait is controlled by a single recessive Mendelian locus, eg, located on chromosome 6 from Seed coat type 6.75 Mb to 11.03 Mb. This region is 4.28 Mb wide and contains 241 candidate genes. The region lacks adequate QTL-seq markers for fine mapping and for marker-assisted selection (MAS) of the egusi trait. In this study, we used QTL- KASP assays seq to validate the position of the eg locus and to identify SNP markers to refine the locus. A genomic region associated with the egusi trait was confirmed on chromosome 6 from 5.25 Mb to 7.85 Mb partially overlapping the previously mapped eg locus. -
Iran Has the Second Largest Economy (After Saudi Arabia) and Population (After Egypt)
COUNTRY FACT SHEET ON FOOD AND AGRICULTURE POLICY TRENDS | September 2014 Socio-economic context and role of agriculture In the Near East and North Africa region, Iran has the second largest economy (after Saudi Arabia) and population (after Egypt). Iran ranks second in the world in natural gas reserves and third in oil reserves.1 The agriculture and rural sector share in the GDP has declined in the last twenty years and yet is the source of income for more than 15 million people in rural areas.2 One quarter of the rural population is landless and of those who own land, one third are smallholders. Those within this segment of the population often fall below or just within the poverty line and face high underemployment rates. IRAN Some of the main development challenges at the national level are the harsh conditions of the physical environment and low productivity of small-holder farmers. Food security challenges include lack of self-sufficiency in major staple crops and inadequate access to food in terms of quantity of daily energy intake. The Iranian Government has adopted a comprehensive strategy envisioning market-based reforms as reflected in the 20-year Vision document and Iran’s fifth Five-Year Development Plan (FYDP 2011–15). The Government envisioned a large privatization programme in its 2010-2015 five-year plan, aiming to privatize 20 percent of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) each year. Moreover, Iran’s 2012 Doing Business ranking is in the bottom tiers of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, at 144th overall. Only Algeria, Iraq, and Djibouti rank lower among MENA countries.
