The Expert Witness Forensic Science and the Criminal Justice Systems of the UK

The Expert Witness Forensic Science and the Criminal Justice Systems of the UK

The global nature of crime often requires expert witnesses to work and present their conclusions in courts outside their home jurisdiction with the corresponding need for them to have an understanding of the different structures and systems operating in other jurisdictions. This book will be a resource for UK professionals as well as those from overseas testifying internationally as to the workings of all UK jurisdictions. It also will help researchers and students to better understand the UK legal system. | The Expert Witness Forensic Science and the Criminal Justice Systems of the UK

Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels The Experience of Japanese and UK Research

Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels The Experience of Japanese and UK Research

This monograph provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art description of the work carried out in the UK and Japan on Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels. It therefore describes research which has been conducted primarily over the last two decades and which has yielded a fairly detailed picture of the important behaviours of compound channels and produced a number of engineering prediction methods which ought to be widely adopted in practice. The text will inevitably highlight areas where our knowledge is sparse and it will spur others on in the task of filling in such gaps. The concept of bi-national groups of researchers meeting together intermittently over period of some years though not new has drawn both inspiration and experience and the interaction has produced tangible outcomes in the form of this useful publication. | Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels The Experience of Japanese and UK Research

The Building Blocks of Life A Nutrition Foundation for Healthcare Professionals

The Building Blocks of Life A Nutrition Foundation for Healthcare Professionals

Within the United Kingdom (UK) most mainstream healthcare practitioners receive little or no nutrition education during their years of training. As a consequence the understanding of nutrition amongst primary care practitioners such as general practitioners pharmacists midwives and practice nurses is limited and is largely focused on energy consumption and obesity. There is little knowledge of the wealth of micronutrients that underpin health nor of the ticking timebomb of insufficient intakes of those micronutrients amongst a significant proportion of the population in the UK. The Building Blocks of Life: A Nutrition Foundation for Healthcare Professionals is a step towards redressing that balance. It sets out an informative and engaging narrative on how and why nutrition is the basis for good health. It discusses UK-specific issues with regards to diet and intakes of vitamins minerals essential fatty acids and other micronutrients. It also raises concerns about the potential negative health implications of the generally poor UK diet and suggests ways that healthcare practitioners can support patients in improving their long-term health outlook. Nutrition policy in the UK needs to be dragged into the 21st century and this book sets out evidence-based arguments which challenge current public health myths such as the idea that 10 micrograms of vitamin D is all anyone needs or the messaging around the consumption of saturated fat vs highly processed seed oils or that everyone can get all the nutrients they need from a varied and balanced diet. Although The Building Blocks of Life: A Nutrition Foundation for Healthcare Professionals focuses on concerns around poor diet and the consequent micronutrient inadequacies in the UK the nutritional detail is relevant no matter where you are in the world. Everyone eats all the time. It is time that mainstream medicine looked towards food as both a cause and a solution to many of the chronic degenerative conditions that plague modern life. | The Building Blocks of Life A Nutrition Foundation for Healthcare Professionals

Fermented Foods Part I Biochemistry and Biotechnology

Fermented Foods Part I Biochemistry and Biotechnology

Traditional fermented foods are not only the staple food for most of developing countries but also the key healthy food for developed countries. As the healthy functions of these foods are gradually discovered more high throughput biotechnologies are being used to promote the fermented food industries. As a result the microorganisms process biochemistry manufacturing and down-streaming processing as well as the bioactive metabolites released by the fermenting organisms and above all the healthy functions of these foods were extensively researched. The application and progress of biotechnology and biochemistry of traditional fermented food systems are different from each other as the microorganisms and the food matrices vary widely. Part I (Biochemistry and Biotechnology) of this book (Fermented Foods) discusses the general aspects of biochemistry and biotechnological application of fermented foods involving acetic acid bacteria lactic acid bacteria ethanolic yeasts and fungi in accelerating the many and variable functional factors in the fermented foods as well as metagenomics of fermented foods. The detailed technological interventions involved in different categories of fermented foods such as fermented cereals (bread and sourdough) fermented milk products (yogurt cheese) fermented sausages fermented vegetables (kimchi sauerkraut) fermented legumes (tempeh natto) and coffee and cocoa fermentations and fermented beverages (animal- and plant-based) with their potential and actual health benefits are discussed in Part II (Fermented Foods: Technological Interventions). | Fermented Foods Part I Biochemistry and Biotechnology
