Hasta el momento los alimentos industrializados que se consumen en nuestro medio aún no han sido estudiados por su contenido de nutrientes minerales. Se presenta los contenidos de fósforo, calcio, hierro, sodio, potasio, cobre y magnesio en 33 alimentos de procedencia nacional e importados. El 70% de estos alimentos son preferentemente consumidos por niños. Se ha empleado métodos oficiales de A.O.A.C.: para fósforo el método colorimétrico, los otros minerales mediante Absorción Atómica, Espectrofotómetro de P.E. Mod. 305. Las gráficas de respuestas a diferentes concentraciones de minerales presentan valores de r = 0,97, p>0,001.En productos dietéticos deshidratados (n = 7), el hierro se encontró entre 2,9 a 11 mg %; calcio 378 a 550 mg %. Los derivados de cereales (n = 8): sodio de 14 a 948 mg %; potasio, 83 a 345 mg %; magnesio 4,9 a 453 mg % y fósforo 43 a 243 mg %. En...

The squid (Dosidicus gigas) is a cephalopod mollusk, a source of high quality proteins that is currently underexploited. The objective was to develop the methodology for the elaboration of a pre-cooked pota product, to evaluate the digestibility of the proteins and the shelf life of the product. Methodology: In a descriptive and experimental design, the nutritional technological study was carried out. Two samples of squid each consisting of 5 kg of the mantle, acquired at the Callao Fishing Terminal, were processed and analyzed independently. The process flow included: disinfection, cutting, washing, stabilization, cutting into strips, cooking by immersion in vegetable oil, packaging and storage. The physical and chemical analysis, using AOAC techniques; minerals using GBC Avanta atomic absorption spectrophotometer with graphite furnace. The digestibility by enzymatic method. The sensory...

La pota (Dosidicus gigas), es un molusco cefalópodo, fuente de proteínas de alta calidad que al presente está subexplotado1. El objetivo fue desarrollar la metodología para la elaboración de un producto pre-cocido de pota, evaluar la digestibilidad de las proteínas y la vida útil de producto. Metodología: En un diseño es de tipo descriptivo y experimental se realizò el estudio tecnológico nutricional. Dos muestras de pota cada una constituida por 5 kg del manto, adquiridas en el Terminal Pesquero del Callao, fueron procesadas y analizadas independientemente. El flujo del proceso comprendió: desinfección, trozado, lavado, estabilización, cortado en tiras, cocción por inmersión en aceite vegetal, envasado y almacenado. El análisis físico químico, mediante técnicas de la AOAC; los minerales empleando espectrofotómetro de absorción atómica GBC Avanta con horno de grafi...

Two parameters not considered as paradigms for quality control of natural fruit juice in the Peruvian Technical Norms are studied here. These parameters a) free amino acid index (FAI) and b) ceIlular structures (CE), would contribute with quantitative and qualitative data to evidence genuinely and quality. In 11 juices prepared at lab level according to pH, acidity and soluble solids specifications and of high consume (peach, strawberry, mandarin orange, mango, apple, maracuya, orange, melon, pear, pineapple and grape) it has been determined: A) the microscopic cellular characteristics (WaIlis metbod) and b) free amino acid index, by means of the formalin index (an A.O.A.c. official method). The same parameters were analyzed in 18 rmnufactured tradermrk juices that are commercialized in the country. This result is reported graphically in photographs taken at tbe moment of CE microscopic ...

To apply the PBl method oriented to PH C to measure the efficiency of this form of training in the learning of the critical stages of pharmacotherapy follow-up, such as the determinaban of DRPs and the formulation c>f the therapeutic plan. In the control group (n = 32 Ph Ch) only 5 participants (16%) correctly identify health problems, 26 (81%) correctly identifies the DRP, in the intervention group (n = 14 Ph Ch) all do it properly. On the literature review, 47% of participants believe that this is important to determine DRP of the group control, whereas 64% does it en the group with intervention. Regarding the formulation of the therapeutic drug plan, 50% of the control group and 71% of the group with intervcntion, identify like important the exposition of aims. Evaluating the resulted averages obtained like puntaje or total qualification on a maximum of 20 points obtained a value t...

Aplicar el método ABP orientado a la AF para medir la eficacia de esta modalidad de capacitación en el aprendizaje de etapas críticas del seguimiento farmacoterapéutico, tales como la determinación de PRM y la formulación del plan terapéutico. En el grupo control (n=32 QF) 5 participantes (16%) identifican los problemas de salud y 26 (81%) identifica los PRM, en el grupo con intervención (n=14 QF) todos los participantes realizan correctamente ambos aspectos. Acerca de la revisión bibliográfica el 47% del grupo control considera que esta es importante para determinar Jos PRM mientras que el 64% lo hace en el grupo con intervención. En cuanto la formulación del plan fármaco terapéutico, 50% de participantes del grupo control frente a un 71% del grupo con intervención, identifican como importantes el planteamiento de objetivos. Evaluando los resultados promedios, de los punt...

The current study is an evaluation of Vitamin A supplement diet in female white mice Balb C53 inoculated with Sarcoma 180. The oral administration of a dose of 200 IU per day of Vitamin A in mice inoculated with sarcoma and divided in two groups, obtained a greater group B (vitamin A supplemented diet) mice survival curve than group A (normal diet) mice survival curve; however more studies are necessary to get a statistical significance. Liver concentration of catalasa was also quantified in three groups of mice: (1) healthy mice with normal diet; (2) sarcoma inoculated mice with normal diet; an (3) sarcoma inoculated mice with vitamin A supplement díet. It showed a significant difference of concentration of catalasa in group 2 in relation to group 1, unlike group 3 in relation to group 1. AH it indicates to us vitamin A anti-oxidant action, avoiding that the enzyme levels decreases. To...

It is a of drugs utilization, descriptive, transversal, observational, multicentric study that follows a transversal design, prescription type -indication- with the aim to determine the prevalence use of reserve antimicrobials in hospitalized patients, of all age groups, men and women in services of internal medicine. We applied two sheets of data collection: ATMR-S (for services) and ATMR-P (for patients) to obtain prevalence of reserve antimicrobials (ATMR) and the ATMR prescribed. The sheets were implemented on August 21, 2006 to 845 patients thatwerc hospitalized that day. Wereport an overall prevalence of ATMR prescribing by hospitals is 28%, with extreme values rangingfrom 18% to 38%; theprevalence of use by services is 32.3% with values ranging from 16.4% in obstetrics-gynecology, and 57.1 % in the intensive care unit. ATMR are the most prescribed according to hospital are vancomy...
