Application of Vegetable Oil Based Machining Fluids in Green Manufacturing Processes, A Review
Cutting fluids are an inherent part of the modern manufacturing system. In the vegetable oil based cutting fluids, the
base fluids should be some vegetable oil. In general, vegetable oil is highly attractive substitutes for petroleum based oils
because they are environmentally friendly, renewable, less toxic and readily biodegradable. In this review paper, the author
investigates some of the published research papers on the application of vegetable oil based machining fluids (including
Nano-fluids) in the different machining processes like turning, milling, grinding and drilling. Besides that, this study also
summarize the effect of the different biodegradable oil based machining fluids on the performance factors such as surface
integrity, machining force, tool wear, power consumption, and temperature produced during the machining process. It
has been reported in various literature that using vegetable oil based Nano machining fluid results high surface features,
reduced tool wear, cutting force, power consumption and lower temperature rise in the machining process due to better
lubrication and cooling properties.
Hierarchical Analysis of The Factors Associated with the Consumption of Fruits and Vegetables: Cohort of Universities of Minas Gerais, Brazil (Cume Project)
The objective of this study was to assess which factors, at hierarchical levels, are associated with adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables (FV) in undergraduate and graduate students. This is a cross-sectional analysis of the baseline of the Cohort of Universities of Minas Gerais (CUME Project), with alumni from Universities of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the years 2016 and 2018. The outcome variable was adequate consumption of FV (≥400 g/day). The exposure variables were divided into: block 1, socioeconomic (marital status, education, professional status, individual and family income); block 2, behavioral (physical activity, alcohol consumption, tobacco use, and consumption of legumes, natural juices, ultra-processed foods, soft drinks and industrialized juices, and fast foods); block 3, individual (gender, age, skin color, self-perception of health and presence of obesity, systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and depression). To verify the associations, hierarchical multiple logistic regression was used. The sample consisted of 4,124 individuals with a median age of 34 years and Interquartile Range (IQ) of 12 years, 68.1% women, with a high frequency (62.2%) of adequate consumption of FV. This adequate consumption of FV was associated with being a woman (OR=1.41; 95%CI 1.21-1.64; p<0.001), advancing in age and being physically active (OR=2.10; 95%CI 1.78-2.47; p<0.001), having regular consumption of natural fruit juice (OR=2.00; 95%CI 1.70-2.34, p<0.001), or consumption of ultra-processed foods (OR=0.96; 95%CI 0.95-0.97; p<0.001). In conclusion, individual and behavioral factors are associated with adequate consumption of FV in highly educated individuals.
Physico-Chemical, Nutritional Evaluation, Haematology of Water and Amaranth Vegetable Leaves
Vegetables are important protective food and highly benefi¬cial for the maintenance of human health and prevention of disease. The
purpose of the research was to determine the Physico- chemical, nutritional evaluation, haematology of water and amaranth vegetable
leaves. The composition of the Diets were as follows: Basal 50 %, Casein 30 %, Amaranth Vegetable 10 % (1).
Cognitive Enhancers Derived from Edible Crops
The concept of an effective cognitive boosting nootropic supplement is gaining traction with consumers, neuroscientists and regulators
alike and it is therefore unsurprising that scientifically validated Nootropics are highly prized. New research demonstrates edible crops
could be useful sources to mine for new nootropics; plant extracts enriched with an array of cognitive enhancing metabolites. There is merit
in investigating these plant species. Metadata has identifies consuming specific fruit and vegetables positively affects cognitive function;
therefore these same edible crop plants present as opportunities for developing nootropic formulations. This hypothesis is supported
by positive data obtained through clinical testing [e.g. extracts of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), herbs from the Genus Salvia, cocoa
(Theobroma), tea (Camellia sinensisor) and coffee (Coffea Arabica). This review will discuss clinically tested cognitive enhancers derived
from edible crop species and discuss their use alongside other classes of nootropics.
Consumption Pattern of Fruits and Vegetables among Solar Market Garden Women’s Groups from Kalalé District of Northern Benin, West Africa
Anemia and iron (ID) and vitamin A (VAD) deficiency continue to be significant public health issues in northern Benin, despite the installation of solar market gardens (SMGs), suggesting an urgent need of implementing nutrition programs to benefit the full impact of SMG.
Nematodes in Horticulture: An Overview
Most important studies about plant-parasitic nematode have been performed especially for major crops, such as soybean, rice, corn, and wheat. However, the damage caused by these pathogens in general horticulture should have more attention. Nowadays, horticulture yield results have been relevant, allowing to show its worldwide power in economies and food. In addition, human hunger and diets changes have highlighted the current horticulture scenario and increased efforts towards solutions in diseases and losses caused by
phytopathogens. Nematode infection has been the cause of important yield losses in horticulture and the genus Meloidogyne and Pratylenchus are reported to be the most important threats. In addition, as horticulture is associated with a wide number of products, the compilation of information regarding damages, symptoms, resistance, novel solutions and other concepts for phynematode management allows for the better comprehension of the whole situation. Herein, we integrated information about the damage and losses caused by these pathogens in horticulture. Resistant genotypes seem to be the best alternative and, due to wide horticulture aspect, the focus is especially for life sustaining horticultural, such as banana, cassava, potato, and sugar beet. In addition, it was also provided evidence regarding how studies have been conducted on new strategies for resistance and control, such as the elucidation of effector’s functions. Nematode effectors studies, focus on the development of new resistant plant genotypes, is an auspicious strategy against this parasites.
Impacts of Double Up SNAP Farmers’ Market Incentive Program on Fruit and Vegetable Access, Purchase and Consumption
Background and Objective: In response to low consumption levels of fruits and vegetables (F&V) by Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participants, the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona created the Double Up SNAP (DUSP) farmers’ market (FM) incentive program to examine its impact on awareness of and access to FM, and F&V purchase and consumption in Pima County, AZ.
Farmers’ Market Use is Associated with Fruit and Vegetable Consumption Among Low-Income Populations: A Cross-Sectional Study from Southern Arizona
Fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption is an important dietary component of disease prevention. Adults who consume more F&V are less likely to develop heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer and are more likely to sustain a healthy weight. In the United States, substantial socioeconomic disparities exist in the prevalence of chronic diseases and the higher prevalence of unhealthy behaviors in lower socioeconomic groups help drive these disparities.
Ethnic Variation in Plate Waste at Congregate Meal Sites
To determine how plate waste varies among African American, Jewish, and Hispanic congregate meal participants, the visual plate waste method was applied to a convenience sample of 343 trays among seven South Florida congregate meal sites.
Dietary Intake of Children Participating in the USDA Summer Food Service Program
The USDA summer food service program (SFSP) provides free lunches during the summer. This study examined the foods selected and consumed by participating children. Three hundred and two children were observed in 14 schools during a 4-week period in June, 2011; 50% were male; 75% were in elementary school.
