Epidemiological studies have identified increased colorectal cancer (CRC) risk with high red meat (HRM) intakes, whereas dietary fibre intake appears to be protective. In the present study, we examined whether a HRM diet increased rectal O6-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine (O6MeG) adduct levels in healthy human subjects, and whether butyrylated high-amylose maize starch (HAMSB) was protective. A group of twenty-three individuals consumed 300 g/d of cooked red meat without (HRM diet) or with 40 g/d of HAMSB (HRM+HAMSB diet) over 4-week periods separated by a 4-week washout in a randomised cross-over design. Stool and rectal biopsy samples were collected for biochemical, microbial and immunohistochemical analyses at baseline and at the end of each 4-week intervention period. The HRM diet increased rectal O6MeG adducts relative to its baseline by 21 % (P< 0·01), whereas the addition of HAMSB to the HRM diet prevented this increase. Epithelial proliferation increased with both the HRM (P< 0·001) and HRM+HAMSB (P< 0·05) diets when compared with their respective baseline levels, but was lower following the HRM+HAMSB diet compared with the HRM diet (P< 0·05). Relative to its baseline, the HRM+HAMSB diet increased the excretion of SCFA by over 20 % (P< 0·05) and increased the absolute abundances of the Clostridium coccoides group (P< 0·05), the Clostridiumleptum group (P< 0·05), Lactobacillus spp. (P< 0·01), Parabacteroides distasonis (P< 0·001) and Ruminococcus bromii (P< 0·05), but lowered Ruminococcus torques (P< 0·05) and the proportions of Ruminococcus gnavus, Ruminococcus torques and Escherichia coli (P< 0·01). HRM consumption could increase the risk of CRC through increased formation of colorectal epithelial O6MeG adducts. HAMSB consumption prevented red meat-induced adduct formation, which may be associated with increased stool SCFA levels and/or changes in the microbiota composition.

Extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) from Klebsiella oxytoca was chemically modified to increase net negative charge in order to expand the efficiency of metal binding. Chlorosulfonic acid (CSA) or a complex of dimethylformamide and sulfur trioxide (DMF–SO3) was used to introduce sulfate substituents onto the native polymer. Additionally, sequential treatment with divinylsulfone (DVS) and glycine or DVS and iminodiacetic acid (IDA) was used to introduce carboxyl residues. Native EPS exhibited a molecular mass distribution of 1500–1700 kDa and removed 38% and 19%, respectively, of lead and cadmium ions. Modification with CSA resulted in a reduction of molecular mass to 450–600 kDa and a removal from solution of lead and cadmium of 75% and 66%, respectively. Modification of EPS with the DMF–SO3 complex, while it did not affect the molecular mass of the polymer, resulted in decreased levels of lead and cadmium removal. Covalent substitution of EPS with DVS–glycine resulted in an increase of molecular mass to 3000 kDa and lead and cadmium removals of 46% and 47%, respectively. Modification of EPS with DVS–IDA increased molecular mass to 2200 kDa and demonstrated lead and cadmium removals of 57% each. Immobilization of native EPS and of the CSA and DVS–IDA modifications to oxirane–acrylic beads resulted in significant increases in metal binding per gram of bound polymer. This suggests a method for metal ion recovery using chelate desorption.

The syntheses of the first single-source precursors to gold-colored titanium nitride films are reported. The precursors have the empirical formula [TiCl2(NHR)2(NH2R)0–2] and [TiCl4(NH3)2] and are obtained upon treatment of titanium tetrachloride with alkylamines or ammonia in nonpolar organic solvents. Both precursors sublime without decomposition between 80–120 °C and 0.01–0.1 mmHg. Deposition of titanium nitride films on glass and silicon substrates was achieved using either precursor at substrate temperatures of 475–600 °C. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, resistivity measurements, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In particular, low levels of carbon and chlorine contaminants were observed in the films.

Factors affecting survival to first and second calving and successful completion of a > 168-day first lactation were assessed in 3075 purebred and crossbred dairy heifer calves. Growth, disease, frequency, reproduction, calving, udder and lactation traits were examined in females of a breeding project conducted jointly at five research stations (herds) of Agriculture Canada. Losses included mortalities and non-discretionary culling. About 0·23 of potential heifers were culled or died before first calving, and 0·25 of those calving once did not calve a second time. Results from retrospective selection index and stepwise linear logistic analyses showed that predictability of culling prior to 308 days post partum was poor. With few exceptions, survival rates from birth to 82 weeks varied among herds (P < 0·001) and among lines (P < 0·05). Heterosis for the probability of completing a lactation and of survival to second calving was significant (P < 0·05) and positive (0·05 to 0·09). Heavier heifers were more likely to survive to first calving. Sire's estimated breeding values (SEBV) for milk yield and fat, protein and lactose concentration were not important in predicting survival to first calving. SEBV lactose was negatively associated with survival after first calving as predicted from data available at most preceding stages of life. An age greater than 82 weeks at last insemination was associated with a lower probability of survival to first and second calving (P < 0·001). Cows which conceived for a second gestation and subsequently aborted had a lower probability of survival to second calving than cows which did not abort (0·57 v. 0·76, P < 0·01). The only continuous traits with large effects on survival or the probability of completing a first lactation were days to last insemination (a measure of fertility) and milk yield. It was concluded that (1) there is considerable scope for improved management to increase survival in early life by prevention of calfhood diseases; (2) losses in early life do not bias sire evaluation on first lactation records; (3) improved reproductive success would greatly enhance overall survival rates; and (4) crossbreeding could have a large impact on overall herd profitability through increased survival.
