This method for the determination of vitamin C by HPLC allows for the separation and quantitation of L-ascorbic acid in infant, pediatric, and adult nutritional products. Liquids, semisolids, and powders ranging from 2 to 1000 mg/kg in their consumable forms were analyzed during the method validation. The method met the standard method performance requirements and was approved by an AOAC Expert Review Panel on Infant Formula and Adult Nutritionals on October 2, 2012. During validation, the overall intermediate precision was 2.1% RSD (triplicate determinations on 7-10 days); the within-day precision, or repeatability, was 1.54% RSD (triplicate determinations). Accuracy, as spike recovery, ranged from 97.0 to 100.9%. The method detection and quantitation limits were determined experimentally to be 0.02 and 0.06 mg/L, respectively, in prepared samples.

Background: Effective interventions to reduce drowning incidents require accurate and reliable data for scientific analysis. However, the lack of high-quality evidence and the variability in drowning terminology, definitions, and outcomes present significant challenges in assessing studies to inform drowning guidelines. Many drowning reports use inappropriate classifications for drowning incidents, which significantly contributes to the underreporting of drowning.

Invasive non-Typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) is one of the leading causes of blood stream infections in Sub-Saharan Africa, especially among children. iNTS can be difficult to diagnose, particularly in areas where malaria is endemic, and difficult to treat, partly because of the emergence of antibiotic resistance. We developed a mathematical model to evaluate the impact of a vaccine for iNTS in 49 countries of sub-Saharan Africa.

Whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) can be used to develop hypoallergenic foods. However, the stabilization mechanism of WPH-stabilized emulsion is not fully understood. Here, a real-time quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) was used in conjunction with a rheometer to investigate the interfacial properties of WPH.

Unlabelled: In very preterm-born infants, nutritional intake is important to reduce the risk of severe metabolic bone disease including the risk of a lower bone mineral density (BMD). The aim of this study was to evaluate bone mineral content (BMC) and BMD (measured as BMC per bone area (BA)) at six years of age in very preterm-born infants fed different diets post-discharge. Data on this topic so far is insufficient, and with this study we aim to supply more useful data.
