The milk of human kindness: the story of the Mothers Milk Bank at Austin

International Breastfeeding Journal, 2006
Increased scientific study of human milk and awareness of the special nutritional needs of the premature infant have stimulated interest in human donor milk banking. Yet only three donor human milk banks existed in the United States in 1998.

Radiostrontium activity concentrations in milk in the Republic of Croatia for 1961 - 2001 and dose assessment [PDF]

Health Physics. 87(2):160-65, 2004. Aug, 2004
Results of systematic measurements of Sr-90 activity concentrations in milk for the period 1961 - 2001 are summarized. An exponential decline of radioactivity followed the moratorium on atmospheric nuclear testing. The highest activity of Sr-90 deposited by fallout, being 1060 Bq/m2, was recorded in 1963, while the peak Sr-90 activity concentration in ...

Preference for meat is not innate in dogs [PDF]

, 2013
Indian free ranging dogs live in a carbohydrate rich environment as scavengers in and around human settlements. They rarely hunt and consequently do not encounter rich sources of protein. Instead they have adapted to a diet of primarily carbohydrates. As descendants of the exclusively carnivorous wolves, they are subjected to the evolutionary load of a

Lycium‐Barbarum Polysaccharide‐Loaded Dual‐Crosslinked Rigid Hydrogel Enhances Bone Healing in Diabetic Bone Defects by Scavenging Reactive Oxygen Species

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel hydrogel (HLBP) incorporating natural polysaccharides from goji berries is developed to enhance diabetic bone defect healing. The hydrogel efficiently scavenges ROS, improves osteogenic differentiation, and promotes in vivo bone regeneration. This strategy offers a biocompatible and localized approach, overcoming the challenges of traditional ...

A Hedonic Metric Approach to Estimating the Demand for Differentiated Products: An Application to Retail Milk Demand [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
This article introduces the Hedonic Metric (HM) approach as an original method to model the demand for differentiated products. Using this approach, initially, we create an n-dimensional hedonic space based on the characteristic information available to consumers. Next, we allocate products into this space and estimate the elasticities using distances.

TPMS‐Gyroid Scaffold‐Mediated Up‐Regulation of ITGB1 for Enhanced Cell Adhesion and Immune‐Modulatory Osteogenesis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A) SLM generates biomimetic bone scaffolds with consistent porosity but varying TPMS‐Gyroid unit cell designs (TG15, TG20, TG25, TG30). B) By enhancing the expression of ITGB1, TPMS‐Gyroid scaffolds can facilitate osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs and promote M2 polarization in macrophages.

Evaluation of the Tempo® System: Improving the Microbiological Quality Monitoring of Human Milk

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Background: Bacteriological testing of donor human milk is mostly done both before and after pasteurization to control contamination in the end-product and meet the microbiological standards.

Pushing Radiative Cooling Technology to Real Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling controls surface optical properties for solar and thermal radiation, offering solutions for global warming and energy savings. Despite significant advances, key challenges remain: optimizing optical efficiency, maintaining aesthetics, preventing overcooling, enhancing durability, and enabling scalable production.

Does opening a milk bank in a neonatal unit change infant feeding practices? A before and after study

International Breastfeeding Journal, 2010
Background Donor human milk banks are much more than simple centers for collection, storage, processing, and distribution of donor human milk, as they cover other aspects and represent a real opportunity to promote and support breastfeeding.
