A rapid and simple multiresidue method has been established for determination of pesticide residues in processed foods by GC/MS. The pesticides were extracted with ethyl acetate in the presence of anhydrous MgSO(4) in a disposable tube, using a homogenizer. The extract was concentrated and reconstituted in hexane, followed by acetonitrile-hexane partition to remove lipids. The acetonitrile layer was cleaned up with a double-layered SPE cartridge column (graphite carbon black/PSA silica gel). After removal of the solvent, the residue was dissolved in acetone. The test solution was subjected to GC/MS in the EI mode. Recovery tests of 222 pesticides from five kinds of processed foods (dumpling, curry, French fries, fried chicken, fried fish) were performed at two different fortification levels of 0.02 and 0.1 microg/g, and 100 pesticides showed acceptable recovery (70-120%) with low relative standard deviation (

Unlabelled: A huge amount of fruits and vegetables is being produced and processed in India and therefore the waste is also generated in high quantities. These wastes are good sources of vitamins, enzymes, cellulose, and many other essential compounds. The non-utilization of these bio-wastes leads to economic loss and also environmental problems.

Background: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption has been linked with higher risk of mortality. This multi-centre study investigated associations between food intake by degree of processing, using the Nova classification, and all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
Methods: This study analyzed data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition.

Ivermectin (IVM) is one of the most widely used antiparasitic drugs worldwide and has become the drug of choice for anthelmintic and tick treatment in beef cattle production. Drugs used in production animals requires a withdrawal period after treatment to avoid residual concentrations above the defined maximun residue level (MRL). The aims of this study were to quantify the residue level of IVM in different muscles of cattle at several different time periods following 1% or 3.

Unlabelled: The effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) (400-650 MPa) and holding temperature (25-50 °C) in thermally assisted HHP processing on multi-scale structure of starch (granule, crystalline and molecular), techno-functional properties, and digestibility of sorghum starch (SS) were evaluated. Response surface methodology has verified that the process impact on the modification of SS was dependent primarily on the pressure level. As HHP increased, processed SS progressively lost their granular structure and Maltese cross, indicating gradual structural disorder within the granules.
