Early High Sugar Intake in Infants and Later Sugar Intake, BMI, and Body Fat Percentage at 2 and 3 Years of Age
… health issue is increasing. Consumption of high sugar diet that lack healthy nutrients is considered one the main causes of this problem. Childhood obesity is associated with many health problems. Objective: to investigate the association between sugar intake during the first year of life and the …

Characteristics of Nectar Production and Standing Crop in <em>Campsis radicans</em> (Bignoniaceae).
… and concentration of flowers were measured and total sugar was calculated. Flowers do not produce additional nectar unless nectar is removed, and it is not resorbed. Volume of standing crop and total sugar fluctuates throughout the day, whereas concentration remains constant. Age and time of day …

Validity and Reliability of the BEVQ-15 in Children and Adolescents
… strokes, and different types of cancers. Added sugar intake (AS), in the form of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB), may contribute to weight gain and obesity development in children and adolescents. Due to the negative health implications of SSB consumption, a valid and reliable brief beverage …

Sweet corn respiration and carbohydrate metabolism under controlled atmosphere storage
Kernel sugar retention during storage was affected by genotype, storage duration, storage atmosphere and temperature. 'Super Sweet 7210' showed both higher sugar content at the fresh corn stage and better sugar retention during storage. The total sugar content of both genotypes declined during …

A study of kernel composition affecting the quality ofshrunken2 sweet corn
… for the characteristic ""corny"" aroma, and sugars (i.e. fructose, glucose, sucrose and total sugar), which are the principal kernel flavor constituents in sweet corn. Other kernel chemical components evaluated in this research included S-methylmethionine (MMS), methionine (MET), and …

Influence of metabolic syndrome information on macronutrient consumption decisions
… (calories, protein, carbohydrate, fat and total sugar) intake were regressed on knowledge of MetS components presence and demographic characteristics using Ordinary Least Square model. The results show that having information that one has diabetes was associated with a reduced intake of …

High pressure processing (HPP) of kelulut honey (Sarawak): enhancement on the quality and alteration of prebiotic potential on lactobacillu
… to colour, HPP demonstrated good retention of total acidity, reducing sugar, total sugar and diastase activity. Astoundingly, HPP at 600 MPa/10 minutes managed to increase the antioxidant activity and total phenolic content (TPC) by 3.0% and 47.2% respectively. Furthermore, HPP-treated at 600 …

Inheritance of Soluble Oligosaccharides in Soybean Seeds
… were observed in F2:3 populations. All three sugars were extracted by an aqueous procedure and quantified by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a NH2 column and refractive index (RI) detector. Segregation of seeds from F2:3 plants indicated a single, partially recessive gene …

Facultative butterfly-ant interactions - the role of variation in composition of nectar secretions
… analyses (HPLC) revealed sucrose as main sugar component in nectar of all three species. In P. coridon it was accompanied by glucose and rarely by further sugars, but never by melezitose. In P. icarus and Z. knysna melezitose was the second most-important component, followed by fructose …

Quantification of sugars and organic acids in 210 cucumber (cucurbis sativus) varieties for genome-wide association studies (GWAS)
There is limited information on the sugar and acid contents in Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) cucumbers. This study aimed to measure total soluble solid content (ºBrix), three main sugars via high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), pH, titratable acidity (TA), and three main organic …
