The effect of dietary calcium inclusion on broiler gastrointestinal pH: quantification and method optimization [PDF]

, 2014
There is little consensus as to the most appropriate methodology for the measurement of gastrointestinal pH in chickens. An experiment was conducted to establish the optimum sampling method for the determination of broiler digesta pH in birds fed ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Association of dietary calcium intake with risk of falls in community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults

The Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging
Objectives: Although calcium supplementation is reported to play a role in preventing falls, few studies have examined the relationship between dietary intake of calcium and falls. Therefore, this study investigated the association of calcium intake with

Dietary calcium intake and Renin Angiotensin System polymorphisms alter the blood pressure response to aerobic exercise: a randomized control design

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2007
Background Dietary calcium intake and the renin angiotensin system (RAS) regulate blood pressure (BP) by modulating calcium homeostasis. Despite similar BP regulatory effects, the influence of dietary calcium intake alone and combined with RAS ...
