Rabadi fermentation of barley flour-buttermilk mixture (fresh and autoclaved) at 30, 35 and 40 degrees C for 6, 12, 18, 24 and 48 h lowered pH, enhanced titratable acidity and did not change fat and total mineral (Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn and P) content. Protein content of fermented fresh as well as autoclaved barley flour-buttermilk mixture either decreased or remained unchanges. Rabadi prepared from both types of barley flour at different temperatures and time periods was acceptable; but that which was fermented at 40 degrees C for 48 h was less acceptable in terms of taste.
This report describes a patient in whom a severe vitamin E deficiency developed secondary to an intestinal malabsorptive disorder. In vivo and in vitro impairment of T-cell function, as well as a polyneuropathy, were observed in conjunction with this vitamin deficiency. Repletion of the vitamin deficiency was associated with marked improvement in the T-cell functions and modest improvement in the neuropathy. Observations in this patient suggest that severe vitamin E deficiency in humans may impair T-cell activity and that correction of the deficient state may reverse these T-cell abnormalities. Further studies will need to be performed to confirm these findings.
This review examines current knowledge regarding the metabolic responses to trauma and sepsis. The factors which may mediate the responses are discussed and the potential value of pharmacological or nutritional manipulation is reviewed.
