Fatty Acid Composition of Oil from Adapted Elite Corn Breeding Materials Abstract The fatty acid composition of corn oil can be altered to meet consumer demands for “healthful” fats (i.e., lower saturates and higher monounsaturates). To this end, a survey of 418 corn hybrids and 98 corn inbreds grown in Iowa was done to determine the fatty acid composition of readily-available, adapted, elite corn breeding materials. These materials are those used in commercial hybrid production. Eighty-seven hybrids grown in France (18 of which also were grown in lowa) were analyzed to determine environmental influence on fatty acid content. -

Relationship Between Dietary Intake of Fatty Acids and Disease Activity in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
Relationship between Dietary Intake of Fatty Acids and Disease Activity in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Department of Nutrition of the College of Allied Health Sciences by Michael R. Ciresi B.S. The Ohio State University June 2008 Committee Chair: Grace Falciglia, Ph.D. Abstract Background. Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are chronic illnesses that affect predominately the gastrointestinal tract. The pathogenesis and etiology remain unclear but the importance of environmental factors, in particular diet, is evidenced by the increased incidence rates of the recent decades that genetic inheritance cannot account for. In particular, the quantity of fatty acid consumption has been consistently linked with IBD risk. While several studies have investigated the connections between diet, etiology, signs and symptoms associated with IBD, very few have explored the relationship between disease state and specific fatty acid intake in the pediatric IBD population. Methods. In this cross-sectional study, 100 pediatric patients from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto with diagnosed IBD (73 with Crohn’s disease (CD) and 27 with ulcerative colitis (UC)) were included. Three-day diet records were collected from the patients for the assessment of their dietary intake. The abbreviated Pediatric Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (PCDAI), the abbreviated Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI), and markers of inflammation (lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) and S100A12) were used to assess disease severity. -

Mitchell, Chair Erik J. Sanchez Shankar B. Rananavare Portland State University 2018 Abstract Cell membranes, or plasma membranes, play an essential role in the structure and the function of living cells. In 1972, the fluid mosaic membrane model was the first unifying paradigm of membrane structure. It is no longer considered adequate because evidence of many non-homogeneous lipid structures in both natural and model membranes have been discovered over the past thirty years. The field of membrane biophysics now uses updated versions of the mosaic model, which consists of the complex mixture of different lipid species. -
The History of Plastics
THE VEOLIA INSTITUTE REVIEW - FACTS REPORTS Few industries like plastic have experienced similar THE HISTORY growth in the space of 60 years, both in terms of production tonnage and use in virtually every moment OF PLASTICS: FROM of our daily lives. However, plastic is now victim of its own success. Waste THE CAPITOL TO is piling up, collection struggles to keep up, recycling is costly… With everyone pointing a finger at it, plastic is THE TARPEIAN ROCK more than ever at the center of society’s debates. While people in the most developed countries are Philippe Chalmin now clearly aware of the problem, in emerging and Professor, Paris-Dauphine University developing economies this awareness is hampered by problems of urban governance attributable to the rampant population growth in the megacities. Plastic has unwittingly become a symbol of the crisis of our postmodern society and one of the major challenges of the 21st century - albeit far from the only one. These problems need to be addressed pragmatically, with our eyes wide open, and without any illusion that we can achieve a plastic-free world. A graduate of the HEC business school, holder of the agrégation in history, and a Doctor of Literature, Philippe Chalmin is Professor of Economic History at Paris-Dauphine University where he directs the Masters in International Affairs. He is the founding chairman of Cyclope, the main European institute for research into raw material markets, which publishes the annual Cyclope Yearbook on the economy and global markets. INTRODUCTION “Product invented in the early 20th century, reached its peak some 100 years later and whose eradication will be one of the major challenges of the 21st century.” Crossword lovers will no doubt recognize this seven-letter clue to a family of KEY WORDS products that will go down in history as one of the symbols of the second half of the 20th century. -

DE GRUYTER Physical Sciences Reviews. 2016; 20160048 Nathalie Berezina Production and application of chitin DOI: 10.1515/psr-2016-0048 1 Introduction For some years now, biopolymers have attracted great interest from both academia and industry. Some of them have been investigated for a long time, such as rubbers [1], the interest in others, such as starch, cellulose [2] or PHA [3], is mainly being driven by ecology concerns. Chitin is somehow apart from this mainstreaming interest in biopolymers. Indeed, as the second major biopolymer worldwide after cellulose, it is mainly produced as a byproduct in shellfish industry. Therefore its production was less a concern for its valorization through different applications and subsequent purifications and derivatizations [4, [5]. Chitin is a polysaccharide, more precisely an aminoglucopyranan, composed of N-acetylated glucosamine (GlcNAc) and glucosamine (GlcN) units (Figure 1), linked by β(1,4) covalent bonds [6]. Due to this specific link- age, chitin exhibits an extremely robust structure towards chemical and biological aggression, indeed the β(1,4) chitin bond is similar to the one found in cellulose, contrary to starch, that is much more easily digested by en- zymes of several (micro)organisms than cellulose and presents an α(1,4) covalent bond between its monomeric units. Figure 1: Chemical structure of chitin. Moreover, the N-acetyl group attached to the major part of the glucosamine monomeric units of chitin con- fers to it extremely poor solubility properties, making chitin difficult to process and thus limiting its potential applications [4]. To circumvent this issue, the hydrolysis of the acetyl group, also called deacetylation, can be applied (Figure 2).
