Six types of vitamin K3 (VK3); two sources (menadione sodium bisulfite, MSB; menadione nicotinamide bisulfite, MNB), and three different forms (crystal, micro-capsule, and micro-sphere) were used to determine the retention of VK3 in vitamin premixes (Experiment 1) or vitamin trace mineral (VTM) premixes (Experiment 2) after 1, 2, 3, and 6 months of storage. The retention of VK3 in vitamin premixes was evaluated at 25 °C/60% relative humidity or 40 °C/75% relative humidity in an incubator in Experiment 1 and in VTM premixes (choline chloride: 0 vs. 16,000 mg/kg) stored at room temperature in Experiment 2. The VK3 retention in vitamin premix or VTM premix decreased significantly with the extension of storage time (p < 0.05). In Experiment 1, the VK3 retention was higher in the 25 °C/60% incubator (56%) than in the 40 °C/75% incubator (28%). The MNB retention (52%) was higher than MSB retention (32%). The retention of VK3 in micro-capsules (43%) or micro-spheres (48%) was higher than the crystal form (35%) after six months of storage. In Experiment 2, there was no difference between the retention of MSB (49%) or MNB (47%). The retention of VK3 of micro-capsule (51%) or micro-sphere (54%) was higher than that of crystal form (40%). The VK3 retention was higher in the choline-free group (51%) than in the choline group (47%) after six months of storage. Finally, the predicted equations of VK3 retention with storage time in vitamin premixes or VTM premixes were established. The R2 of the prediction equations was ≥0.9005, indicating that time is an important factor in predicting VK3 retention. In conclusion, the higher temperature-relative humidity, choline had negative effects on VK3 retention during premix storage. MNB retention was higher than MSB during storage of vitamin premix. The encapsulated forms of VK3, micro-capsules and micro-spheres, could improve VK3 storage stability in vitamin premix and VTM premix.

Objectives The aim of this study was to analyze iron, copper and zinc concentrations in commercial foods and compare among food formats (dry, canned, raw), foods marketed by age category (adult 1+ years and senior 7+ years) and foods intended for adult maintenance vs all life stages. Methods In total, 112 commercial non-therapeutic food products marketed for healthy adult and senior cats were purchased in the USA. Foods were analyzed for their proximate composition. Trace mineral concentrations were measured using inductively coupled argon plasma–optical emission spectroscopy and described on a calculated metabolizable energy basis using standard modified Atwater values. Results Measured iron (median 58.4 mg/1000 kcal [range 15.7–379.0]), copper (median 5.6 mg/1000 kcal [range 0.8–13.3]) and zinc (median 47.6 mg/1000 kcal [range 7.6–128.1]) concentrations were highly variable among cat foods. When all food products – regardless of their nutritional adequacy substantiation method – were compared with the Association of American Feed Control Officials regulatory minimums, 13/112 food products had a mineral deficiency, of which a majority (n = 11/13) were raw food products. Raw foods had significantly lower trace mineral concentrations compared with dry food products and, except for copper, canned food products. Cat foods marketed for senior cats had higher iron ( P = 0.019) and zinc ( P <0.0001) concentrations than foods marketed for adult cats. Foods intended for adult maintenance had higher iron ( P = 0.003) and zinc concentrations than foods intended for all life stages ( P <0.0001). Conclusions and relevance Iron, copper and zinc concentrations in commercial non-therapeutic foods for adult and senior cats are highly variable. A minority of foods – mainly raw food products – were deficient in these minerals. It is unknown if some foods with high trace mineral concentrations could have adverse effects as studies are needed to establish safe upper limits for dietary intake of trace minerals in healthy cats.

Multiple Micronutrient Powder

Latar belakang: Kesehatan anak tergantung interaksi antara genetika danfaktor eksogenous seperti kecukupan gizi, kesehatan lingkungan, interaksi sosial dan stimulasi. Hampir dua pertiga kematian anak di dunia secara langsung dan tidak langsung berhubungan  dengan  defisiensi gizi. Kurang energi protein dan defisiensi mikronutrien meningkatkan risiko kematian karena penyakit seperti anemia, gastroenteritis, pneumonia dan campak. Vitamin dan trace mineral dibutuhkan untuk produksi berbagai macam enzim, hormon, dan mediator biokimiawi untuk mengatur proses biologi. Mikronutrien juga dibutuhkan untuk meningkatkan pertumbuhan fisik, kematangan seksual dan perkembangan syaraf.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh MultipleMicronutrient Powder Terhadap Pertumbuhan Anak Dengan Anemia Usia 6-59 Bulan.Metode: Metode penelitian adalah Randomized Control Trial yang dilakukan pada bulan Maret – Mei 2013 di Kecamatan Polanharjo Kabupaten Klaten. Anak dengan anemia usia 6-59 bulan dipilih secara random , dikelompokkan menjadi dua kelompok yaitu kelompok yang diberi Multiple Micronutrient Powder dan kelompok lain diberi plasebo. Keduanya diberi perlakuan selama 12 minggu. Berat Badan dan tinggi badan   diukur sebelum dan sesudah perlakuan. Hasil dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis t-test.Hasil: Anak dengan anemia yang diberi Multiple Micronutrient Powder terjadipeningkatan rata-rata z-score pada indeks TB/U (p=0.829), BB/U (p=0.906), dan BB/TB (p=0.996) walaupun secara statistik tidak signifikan.
