  • 1 Potassium Levels in a Range of Foods and Drinks Consumed in Mauritius
    Potassium levels in a range of foods and drinks consumed in Mauritius Sudaxshina Murdan1*, Anshu Prakash Murdan2, Premawuttee Murdan3 1UCL School of Pharmacy, University College London, 29-39 Brunswick Square, London, WC1N 1AX, UK 2Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Mauritius, Reduit, Mauritius 3Quatre Bords Road, Bon Accueil, Mauritius * Corresponding author email: [email protected] Introduction Potassium is an essential mineral nutrient, and high potassium intake is associated with lower mortality risk [1]. Thus people are advised to increase their consumption of fruits and vegetables which are natural sources of potassium. Since potassium is readily excreted by people with normal kidney function, and based on estimates of the generally low potassium intakes in European and North American populations, no Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) has been set [2, 3]. However, certain groups of people, such as those with renal failure, are at risk of hyperkalemia [4] and people with chronic kidney disease, and on dialysis are advised to restrict their intake of potassium [5]. To help patients, a number of websites, such as [5-7] and publications, such as [8-10] provide the potassium levels in different foods. While these sources are very useful and much of the information is freely available on the web, there is a dearth of information about foods that are eaten in certain parts of the world, such as in the Republic of Mauritius. The aim of this pilot study was therefore to measure the potassium levels in a sample of drinks and plant foods that are commonly consumed in the island Republic of Mauritius.

    The Coca-Cola Company One Coca-Cola Plaza Atlanta, Georgia 30313 1-800-788-5047 Subject: DASANI® Bottled Water Report as required by California SB 220 Thank you for requesting information about the source and product quality of DASANI purified water. As the owner of the DASANI brand, The Coca Cola Company is pleased to provide this information to you. Most facilities that purify and bottle DASANI procure water from municipal water systems. At a few plants, however, water is obtained from protected groundwater sources managed by the bottling plant, with approvals from local authorities. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has established standards of identity for various types of bottled water, including spring water, mineral water, artesian water and purified water. DASANI is made using purified water, which the FDA defines as: “Water that is produced by distillation, deionization, reverse osmosis or other suitable processes and that meets the definition of “purified water” in the U.S. Pharmacopeia, 23d Revision, Jan. 1, 1995.” The DASANI purification process includes these steps, in approximately this order: • Volatile organic compounds and chlorine are absorbed as source water passes through granular activated carbon filtration, a form of crushed and hardened charcoal. • Minerals and additional impurities are removed as water is forced at high pressure through a semi-permeable molecular-level membrane. This step is called reverse osmosis. • Interim ultraviolet light disinfection destroys micro-organisms and ensures water safety and purity before re-mineralization. • Water is re-mineralized by the addition of small amounts of magnesium sulfate, potassium chloride and salt (which adds a negligible amount of sodium) to assure consistent taste.

  • Laszewicki, Alex Subsidios Y Acumulación Privada En El Trasporte
    IX Jornadas de Sociología de la UNLP Laszewicki, Alex Subsidios y acumulación privada en el trasporte ferroviario metropolitano de Buenos Aires, 2003-2010 Introducción: contexto, pertinencia y objeto de la investigación. El período contenido entre los años 2002-2010 presentó una recuperación de la actividad económica tras la crisis de la convertibilidad que detonó la rebelión popular de diciembre de 2001, y que acabó en el fin de la paridad cambiaria en el año 2002. Así como esta crisis, en la posconvertibilidad las explicaciones acerca de las principales tendencias macroeconómicas tuvieron como uno de sus ejes centrales el análisis de las políticas del Estado nacional argentino. Con el avance del período se multiplicaron los análisis acerca de los cambios, pero también las continuidades en términos de política estatal en comparación al período anterior. La cuestión de las privatizadas y los subsidios fue problematizada al inicio del período, en el que recibieron ingentes sumas de dinero en un contexto de crisis económica y social para mantener niveles tarifarios bajos (Azpiazu y Schorr, 2003), pero más aún a partir de los años 2008/2009 con la llegada de los efectos de la crisis internacional y los resultados del denominado “conflicto del campo”. Caída de las reservas, aparición de resultados totales deficitarios en las cuentas públicas y deterioro del tipo de cambio alto fueron diferentes indicadores de la aparición de límites al tipo de desarrollo económico ocurrido en los años de crecimiento, cuestionando el “ciclo virtuoso” que parecía desprenderse del sostenimiento del triángulo superávit comercial-superávit fiscal-tipo de cambio “alto” (Eskenazi, 2009).

  • Departmental Guidelines for Purchasing Coca-Cola Products
    Departmental Guidelines for Purchasing Coca-Cola Products The following guidelines are intended to provide assistance for individuals purchasing Coca-Cola products for departmental use using any Texas Tech University funds. The Procurement Department has made every effort to ensure that the guidelines are in compliance with University operating policies and the exclusive contract the University has with Coca-Cola. 1. Departmental purchases of Coca-Cola products are not subject to university bidding requirements as the university has an exclusive contract with Coca-Cola. a. Distribution, sale or purchase of non-Coke products by the university is prohibited as this violates the generous sponsorship agreement Texas Tech University has with Coca-Cola. b. This rule also applies to single bottled water (32 ounces or less) or other beverages that are donated and includes off-campus events as long as the University is associated with the event. c.
