Camellia sinensis L. leaves composed of different concentrations of mineral contents play a vital role in human nutrition and health. In this study, locally processed three different green tea varieties i.e. P3, P5 and P9 were used for mineral content determination at National Tea and High Value Crops Research Institute (NTHRI), Shinkiari, Mansehra, Pakistan. Atomic absorption spectrophotometer, flame photometer and Kjehldal apparatus were used for the determination of mineral concentration in all the collected tea samples. Mineral composition of tea samples were identified in the following quantity order: high level of nitrogen (37300 to 41380 mg/L), calcium (515.6 to 522.1 mg/L) and phosphorus (742 to 1220 mg/L) were observed in all tea samples compared to other minerals. Cobalt (Co), molybdenum (Mo), sodium (Na), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu) were highest in P3, while least amount was identified in P5, variety. On the contrary, calcium (Ca), potassium (K) and lead (Pb) contents were maximum in P5, while minimum were in P3. This study revealed that the levels of mineral elements in different varieties of green tea vary from the permissible level but the monitoring of their levels in tea plant is obligatory for future risk measurements.
Fat Embolism and the associated Fat Embolism Syndrome is a serious and potentially life threatening condition. It tends tooccur usually after fractures or intramedullary instrumentation of long bones. Non-traumatic conditions such as Diabetes Mellitus severe Burns,SLE, sickle cell disease and Pancreatitis can also lead to Fat Embolic syndrome. Young adults are commonly affected. Presentation consistsof an asymptomatic interval followed by pulmonary and neurological manifestations combined with petechial haemorrhages. The diagnosislargely depends on high index of suspicion and exclusion of other conditions. Treatment of this condition remains supportive. Mortalityassociated with this condition is significant, ranging from 10-20% .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
