The Museum felt this research was necessary because it wants to enhance its reach and relevance to people of the African diaspora (beyond those who identify themselves as African American): The main purpose of this audience research project is to illuminate the perceptions of diverse African diasporic audiences in order to meaningfully engage with them and offer them a fulfilling visitor experience at the Smithsonian’s newest museum…1 Therefore, audience research was warranted because little is known about the likely perceptions of diverse black audiences in relation to a museum experience about African American history and culture.

  • Lime (Citrus Aurantifolia L.) Juice a Potent Treatment for the Virulent Hepatocarcinogen Aflatoxin B1 in Peanut Paste
    Journal of Molecular Pathophysiology www.scopemed.org 10.5455/jmp.20160413111838 Original Research DOI: Lime (Citrus aurantifolia L.) Juice a potent treatment for the virulent hepatocarcinogen aflatoxin B1 in peanut paste Esameldin Bashir Mohamed Kabbashi1 , Salah Eldeen Abbas Ali2 , Nawal Abdelgayoum Abdelrahman1 ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed at providing a method for elimination of aflatoxin B1 in peanut paste using a natural product. This is of importance given that the occurrence of aflatoxins is generally unavoidable in spite of the use of protective methods, including use of natural products, during storage. Background: Aflatoxins are fungal toxins and products of Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus and other less important aspergilli. They include B aflatoxins (B1, being the most potent hepatocarcinogen known, and B2) which are produced by both species and aflatoxins G (G1 and G2) that are produced by A. parasiticus and aflatoxin M1 and Q1 metabolites of B1 and aflatoxin M2 metabolite of Aflatoxin B2. Since the discovery of aflatoxins in 1960, after an outbreak of a disease of unknown etiology of turkey in England, the scientific 1The National Food Research Center, approach towards these toxins concentrated on the protective measures and control of the incidence of these carcinogens.
