Significant 25(OH)D variations were recorded according to the season in which blood samples were drawn, but even during summer only 32.6% of analyzed children had sufficient 25(OH)D levels. More than 80% of our population had 25(OH)D less than sufficiency cutoff levels. Results highlight a high prevalence of 25(OH)D deficiency in our area, even during summer. It is important to establish screening, supplementation guidelines, and pediatric cutoff levels to optimize vitamin D status in children, taking into account age, nutritional status, and seasonality.

The results showed that the total sulfhydryl, reactive sulfhydryl, free amino group, α-helix and β-sheet contents, fluorescence intensity (FI), and protein thermal stability (Tmax, ∆Htotal) of samples with the same fat content were significantly decreased, while the β-turn and random-coil content and the maximum fluorescence emission wavelength (λmax) were significantly increased with increasing F-T cycles (P less then 0.05). These changes in samples with 20% fat at the 5th F-T cycle were obvious and were verified by the decreases in ∆Htotal (26.1%), reactive sulfhydryl (16.1%), and FI (16.8%) compared with the patties without fat. Therefore, repeated F-T cycles could decline the thermal stability of protein, destroy the protein structure of patty, and the changes were positively correlated with fat co
