NIH Advisory Group Recommends Changes for Biomedical Research Workforce :: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) should make changes to workforce policies in order to promote the long-term sustainability of the biomedical research workforce, according to a new report by a government advisory group. NIH must address the increasing completion time for graduate degrees, low postdoctoral pay, and declining proportion of young researchers who obtain tenure-track positions.
The report by a working group of the NIH Advisory Committee to the Director considered the future of the nation’s biomedical research workforce. The goal of the study was to ensure “future US competitiveness and innovation in biomedical research by creating pathways through undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral training” that attract and retain the best scientists and prepare...

With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years. But nobody thinks about the economics of the issue. How many people are we going to save by spending this $1.4 billion, even assuming it works?To answer that question, let's look at the food illness fatality figures offered by the CDC:• Out of the 5,000 food-borne illness deaths each year in the United States, only 1,809 are "attributable to foodborne transmission" according to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol5no5/mead.htm#Table%203).• E.coli, which is often quoted in the big scare stories about food safety, only kills 78 people a year through food-borne transmission (52 plus 26, fro...

Enzymatic preparation of L‐alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine in an aqueous medium :: AbstractL‐alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine (L‐α‐GPC) was successfully prepared from phosphatidylcholine (PC) of food‐grade soy lecithin powder by a novel enzymatic reaction in an aqueous medium. A 94.5% yield of L‐α‐GPC was obtained under the optimal conditions of 55 °C, 6.67 mg · mL‐1 substrate, 2 mM CaCl2, and 33.4 U · mL‐1 phospholipase A1 (Lecitase Ultra). L‐α‐GPC at 98% purity, 73.4% (wt‐%) recovery, and specific rotation () of ‐2.5° was achieved by silica gel column chromatography. Owing to its excellent catalytic efficiency, low cost, and ready availability, phospholipase A1 (Lecitase Ultra) provides a very satisfactory option for converting PC to L‐α‐GPC.Practical applications: L‐alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine (L‐α‐GPC) has been st...
