Clonogenic survival assays were used to characterize effects of the phytochemicals on cultured colonic epithelial cells (HCT116 p53 ) in direct irradiation or upon receipt of irradiated-cell conditioned media (for bystander effects). In direct irradiation, feeding regimen experiments included compound administration pre- and post-irradiation, which was used as a basis to define effects as radioprotective and radiomitigative, respectively. In the bystander effect experiments, either donor or recipient cell cultures were fed with the phytochemicals and bystander-induced clonogenic cell death was quantitatively evaluated. Dose challenge was in the range of 0.5 - 5 Gy using the gamma source (Cs-137). Curcumin, andrographolide, and d-limonene appeared to not exhibit radiells are tumourigenic in nature, this finding implies that these three dietary compounds would not reduce the killing efficacy of radiation in gastrointestinal tumorigenesis. The post-irradiation radiosensitizing effect of d-limonene was an intriguing observation worth further investigation.The purpose of this study was to determine if staff perceive a mealtime management video to be a beneficial and useful training tool in long-term care (LTC) homes. An email invitation was sent to the Dietitians of Canada Gerontology Network inviting dietitians working in LTC homes to participate. A previously used and reliable 25-item questionnaire was used to assess sustained attention/mental effort, learner satisfaction, clinical experience/relevance, and information processing of the video. Dietitians were asked to show the video to LTC staff and distribute the questionnaire to staff after viewing the video. A total o
