Food safety risk communication is part of the analysis methodology and plays an important role in increasingly complex food system. Besides shaping consumer awareness, perception behaviour, also affects reputation authorities, being especially for securing operational stability budget concerned organisations. A recent European study highlighted a high variance preparedness official institutions EU member countries. This paper presents benchmarking instrument, Self-evaluation Tool Risk...
The prevalence of college students' tobacco use is widely recognized, but successful cessation and relapse-prevention programs for these smokers have drawn little attention. authors, who explored the feasibility training peers to lead undergraduates, found a quit rate 88.2%, suggesting that were effective facilitators. Relapse-prevention interventions, which began immediately after participants smoking, included 6 monthly group individual meetings. Each session provided education in stress...
Weathered, hydrocarbon-contaminated soil containing 17,000 ppm mineral oil and grease (MOG) of which 40 percent (wt/wt) was aliphatic, 32 polar 28 aromatic cocomposted with maple leaves alfalfa in a laboratory-scale reactor. The cocompost pH acidic initially (6.4) but rapidly increased, reaching 8.5 by day 19. During this period the temperature had risen from ambient to 53°C (day 2) subsequently, gradually returned room temperature. rates carbon dioxide generation oxygen consumption were...
This study evaluates the effect of length stay and baseline health status on readmission rates 3 months after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Baseline showed a trend toward worse scores for patients who were read mitted. Read mitted had longer lengths stay, 3-month scores, women with heart failure higher rates. It may be possible to identify at risk using clinical variables, status. If predictive model can developed, then interventions developed tested decrease rate unplanned missions.
Abstract A variation on Peterson's modification of the Lowry method for microbial protein determination was developed in which 10% (w/v) oxalic acid used to remove jarosite. This allowed quantification Thiobacillus ferrooxidans entrapped solid jarosite or aqueous suspensions containing The quantity measured not affected by amount culture, concentration acid, time exposure (up 72 h) sample acid. An application this demonstrated biomass immobilized surface polystyrene beads an inverse...
Homeland Security (HS) is a growing field of study in the U.S. today, generally covering risk management, terrorism studies, policy development, and other topics related to broad field. Information security threats both public private sectors are intensity, frequency, severity, very real threat nation. While there many models for information education at all levels higher education, these programs invariably offered as technical course study, curricula not well suited HS students. As result,...
This study distinguishes between organizational char acteristics, regarded as exogenous structural indicators of quality, and those identified endogenous indica tors care (SC), investigates the degree to which measures SC vary by ownership mode (defined four combinations chain affiliation profit status) for 142 certified licensed nursing facilities (NFs) in a southern state. Structural mea sures include: unlicensed staffing, therapists, case mix-adjusted direct expendi tures. In addition,...
While the structure, process, and outcome taxonomy has long been used in field of health care quality measurement evaluation, it not a true causal model which assesses facility level quality. Total management continuous improvement call for routinely assessing resident framework. This paper presents modeling methodology as more appropriate method understanding inter-relatedness among each dimensions Nursing Facility care, how such directly relates to notion improvement. The consists five...
Abstract The worsening effects of human-caused climate change, as well issues most American view “homeland security” (HS) can be seen in the news almost every day. Yet general public and even many security-related fields do not connect two arenas, though interrelated resource competition conflicts that together make up growing field environmental security (ES), are increasingly important risk response variables for homeland emergency management. Current change already destructive volatile,...
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) receives hundreds of requests for scientific risk assessments each year and publishes on average over 500 outputs annually. To optimise the planning its communications, authors developed a two-phase approach assessing incoming that follows first two stages IRGC's Risk Governance Framework―Pre-Assessment (Screening) Appraisal (Risk Perceptions Social Concerns Assessment)―and is driven by use social insights, analytics, professional knowledge. During...
Abstract Colleges and universities that educate aspiring homeland security professionals are duty-bound to supply a national workforce is capable adequately prepared meet the National Preparedness Goal. It perhaps not an exaggeration suggest developing qualified (HLS) could be considered matter of security. Indeed, appropriately educated only (at least implicit) part current FEMA Goal, it was identified as imperative early 2001 by US Senate Committee on Homeland Security Government Affairs....
