Scientifi c Journal of Food Science & Nutrition

In this study seven essential minerals copper, zinc, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium and potassium were measured in buffalo’s milk collected from the urban area of District Jamshoro in order to determine their Daily Intake (DI) and Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) values for 1-12 years children. All the milk samples were prepared for mineral analysis as per reported methods and their concentrations were obtained by using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). Mean concentrations of essential minerals in buffaloes milk were found in the order of K>Ca>P>Na>Mg>Zn> Cu. All the analysed minerals were in range with literature data. Based on the milk consumption data highest daily intake of minerals were determined for 1-3 years children followed by 4-8 and 9-12 years. Daily intake of minerals was found in the order of K>Ca>P>Na>Mg>Zn>Cu in children. Daily intake values of these minerals in children were below the respective ranges recommenced by Institute of Medicine (IOM). In RDA contribution it was observed that milk had good contribution for Ca followed by P, Cu, Mg, Zn, K and Na for all age group children.

Proteomic Biomarkers as Indicator of Aquatic Pollution in Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus from Two Polluted Lagoons

Studying the expression of proteins in Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus muscle, is essential to understand the biological, physiological and ecological aspects that may be of advantage in ecotoxicology as a tool for biomonitoring the effects of environmental pollution, as well as food safety. This study was aimed to accomplish a systematic characterization of the muscle proteome as well as to identify a putative set of protein biomarkers in C. nigrodigitatus to environmental pollution in Ologe and Badagry lagoons. Fifteen fi sh samples were used as representative of the population for proteomics analysis. 116 proteins was expressed with 70 up-regulated, 25 down-regulated from Ologe Lagoon and 30 up-regulated, 17 down-regulated proteins from Badagry Lagoon expressed in the muscle of C. nigrodigitatus in response to environmental stressors using iTRAQ, while 8 protein spots from 2-D gels, representing 8 proteins with 2 up-regulated and 6 down-regulated, have been identifi ed using MALDI TOF/TOF MS. Pearson correlation revealed signifi cant correlation (p < 0.05) between environmental variables and protein markers. The investigation revealed that the expressed proteins in the muscle of C. nigrodigitatus served as a prognostic tool to assess the fi sh health and pollution status, which was observed that the fi sh were physiologically perturbed by environmental stressors in Ologe and Badagry lagoons.
Ologe and Badagry Lagoons are situated within the Lagos lagoon complex in Lagos State of Southwestern region of Nigeria. Ologe Lagoon is a freshwater body which opens into the Atlantic Ocean via the Badagry creeks and the Lagos harbour. Th ese Lagoons meet several socio-economic needs such as aquaculture, fishing, sand dredging and drainage across various towns and villages borderingit. By virtue of their position, (with several industries and other anthropogenic activities around it), have been impacted by partially treated and untreated industrial effluents.

American Journal of Urology Research

American Journal of Urology Research (AJUR) is an Open access quick-refereeing peer reviewed, online publishing journal which intends to publish scholarly and quality papers in all aspects of urology.

Aims and Scope

Urology is the branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary tract system and the male reproductive organs. The organs under the domain of urology include the kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and the male reproductive organs. Our aim is to provide a platform for researchers, professors and students with up-to-date research in a wide range of areas, and to aid the global exchange and review of research, ideas and expertise in the scientific community.
The scope of the journal highlights on all areas of Urology that includes Acute and chronic renal diseases caused by diabetes mellitus, poisons, infections and hereditary illness, diagnosis and management, hypertension, stone disease. We also focused upon the latest advancements in urologic diseases like Kidney Stones, Urinary Retention, Hematuria (Blood in the Urine), Erectile Dysfunction and Prostate Enlargement (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia).
