Article Synopsis
- - Elephantiasis, also known as lymphatic filariasis (LF), affects around 120 million people globally and leads to severe physical deformities, impacting quality of life and socio-economic status, particularly in Southern Africa.
- - LF is endemic in four Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries, with some regions facing challenges in mass drug administration (MDA) efforts, while Malawi has successfully eliminated LF as a public health problem.
- - Gaps in knowledge about LF prevalence in the SADC region highlight the need for ongoing research, improved data collection, and effective policies to combat the disease and enhance healthcare infrastructure.
Application of cooking oil during thermal processing can influence the nutritional qualities of meat products during consumption. This study determined the effect of frying with sunflower and olive oil on the fatty acid profile of sausage fortified with edible meat waste (EMW) as a fat replacer was evaluated. Fresh beef sausages were formulated in ratios of 30% lean meat (LM) and 70% EMW, 50% LM and 50% EMW, and 90% LM and 10% fat (control) and designated as T1, T2, and T3, respectively.
