999, 95% CI = 0.999-0.999), fruit (OR = 0.998, 95% CI = 0.997-0.999), and green tea (OR = 0.997, 95% CI = 0.994-0.999) were significantly associated with a lower risk of breast cancer. For luminal breast cancer patients, beans (OR = 0.997, 95% CI = 0.994-0.999), white meat (OR = 0.992, 95% CI = 0.987-0.997), green tea (OR = 0.995, 95% CI = 0.991-0.999), and milk (OR = 0.998, 95% CI = 0.996-0.999) were protective factors. While for nonluminal breast cancer, red meat was not included in the equation, and beans (OR = 0.989, 95% CI = 0.981-0.997), white meat (OR = 0.989, 95% CI = 0.981-0.998), vegetables (OR = 0.998, 95% CI = 0.997-0.999), and milk (OR = 0.994, 95% CI = 0.989-0.999) still showed a significantly reduced risk of nonluminal breast cancer. Different dietary factors revealed different effects on the etiology of breast cancer. Red meat may be a specific risk factor for luminal-type breast cancer.Anchote (Coccinia abyssinica (Lam.) Cogn.) is an indigenous underutilized but valuable root crop solely consumed in Ethiopia. It is commonly used as occasional food during holidays and as therapeutic food to treat fractured bone or develop strong bone. So far, different studies conducted related to its variety development, nutrition, and anti-nutrition contents. In this study, attempts were made to investigate the effect of predrying treatments and drying temperature on nutritional composition and thermophysical properties of its flour. A general full factorial experiment with two factors each at three levels used to run the experiment. The proximate compositions, thermophysical properties, and mineral contents were determined using AOAC standard methods; well-developed model equations; and atomic absorption spectrophotometry, respectively. The ranges of nutrients in mg/100 g DB were as follows moisture content (MC) 7.37-10.10; protein 3.26-4.80; total fiber (TF) 7.24- 10.76; ether extract (EE) 0.49-0.70, ash 2.96-4.74, total carbohydrate (TC) 80.01-83.66; calcium (Ca) 357.07-482.89; magnesium (Mg) 138.87-222.38; iron (Fe) 10.87-16.00; zinc(Zn) 2.07-2.80; and copper(Cu) 1.90-2.25. The bulk density, specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and thermal diffusivity of the flours ranged in 0.72-0.82 (g/cm3), 1.710-1.780 KJ/kg°C, 0.263-0.273 W/m2°C, and 1.88 x 10-4- 2.12 × 10-4 m2/s, respectively. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Gefitinib.html The predrying treatment and drying temperature significantly affected (p less then .05) MC, protein, TF, EE, ash, TC, Ca, Fe, and Zn contents. The thermophysical properties were also affected by the same factors. The flour made from raw anchote dried at 100°C was better in preserving the nutrients and improving its cooking property.For the first time, the potential of orange and banana peels as fruit wastes was evaluated in contrast with Euphorbia condylocarpa as a widely distributed medicinal plant of Kurdistan, Iran, for biosynthesis of Fe3O4, CuO, ZnO, and TiO2 NPs. The extracts of the green sources were assessed to monitor the bioreducing phytochemicals inside them using the UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Moreover, the obtained green nanoparticles were identified using the micrograph and diffractogram techniques to show their size, shape, and morphology. Also, the antibacterial activities of the green NPs were investigated against common pathogenic bacteria of Pseudomonas aureus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.Compound Fu Brick Tea (CFBT), which is from Duyun city in China, is a traditional Chinese dark tea, Fu Brick Tea, mixed with six herbal medicine. It is consumed by local people for reducing weight, but the mechanism is not clear. The disorder of intestinal microbiome caused by long-term high-fat diet (HFD) is one of the inducements of obesity and related metabolic syndrome. In this study, mice were fed with HFD to establish a high-fat model. Fifty mice were randomly divided into six groups normal control (CK), HFD model control (NK), positive control with medicine (YK), CFBT groups with low, middle, and high dose (FL, FM, FH). The V3-V4 DNA region of fecal microbiome from mouse intestine was sequenced. The results showed that the diversity of intestinal microflora was highest in CK and lowest in NK. Compared with CK, the dominant bacterium Firmicutes was increased and Bacteroidetes decreased at phylum level in NK. Compared with NK, the abundance of microbiome in CFBT groups was significantly higher and the composition was changed Muribaculaceae, Bacteroidaceae, and Prevotellaceae increased and Lachnospiraceae decreased in CFBT groups at family level, while at the genus level, Bacteroides increased and Lactobacillus decreased. These results conclude that CFBT can increase the abundance of intestinal microbiome in mice, promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria, and restore the imbalance of intestinal microbiome caused by poor diet.Chicken sausages included with three different quantities of banana (Musa balbisiana) peel powder. The technological properties (cooking yield, texture, water-holding capacity, color, rheology, and texture), composition, and sensory acceptability were assessed. In storage study, lipid oxidation of the best formulation from the sensory score was evaluated. The inclusion of banana peel powder (BPP) raises the nutritional value with regard to an increase in dietary fiber and a reduction in the sausage fat content. The addition of BPP also causes a significant increase in the cooking yield and water-holding capacity. Additionally, storage modulus values increase with the increase in the BPP's concentration. However, with BPP incorporation, a hard texture and darkening of the sausage were observed. Interestingly, our findings exhibit the compromise in microstructural of chicken sausage with high percentage of BPP manifested by the high storage modulus and hardness but with low resistance toward stress, short linear viscoelastic region. This aspect also caused a significant change in the sensory score. The TBA value in the sausage containing 2% BPP exhibited a delay in lipid oxidation up to 55%, prompting its antioxidant potential. Generally, the incorporation of BPP to chicken sausage changes its properties. BPP has been a potential candidate as a value-adding ingredient that may be used during meat preparation since it positively influences the nutritional value and specific technological properties of the food.
