Blood Supply
Author: Marcia G. Crosse
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 0788176366
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Widespread concern about the safety of the blood supply has led to many changes in the way blood is collected, processed, and transfused. Consequently, the risks of contracting certain diseases, such as AIDS and hepatitis, are lower today than they were in the mid-1980s. This report addresses the risks of contracting AIDS and hepatitis from blood as well as other known risks of blood transfusion. It addresses disparate estimates of transfusion-associated AIDS and hepatitis cases and determines the current risks, evaluating the content and quality of data collected to assess these risks. Graphs. Extensive bibliography.

Book Description
Many people naturally assume that the claims made for foods and nutritional supplements have the same degree of scientific grounding as those for medication, but that is not always the case. The IOM recommends that the FDA adopt a consistent scientific framework for biomarker evaluation in order to achieve a rigorous and transparent process.

Enhancing the Regulatory Decision-Making Approval Process for Direct Food Ingredient Technologies
Author: Institute of Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309184134
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
The Institute of Medicine's (IOM's) Food Forum was established in 1993 to allow science and technology leaders in the food industry, top administrators in the federal government, representatives from consumer interest groups, and academicians to discuss and debate food and food safety issues openly and in a neutral setting. The Forum provides a mechanism for these diverse groups to identify possible approaches for addressing food and food safety problems and issues surrounding the often complex interactions among industry, academia, regulatory agencies, and consumers. On May 6-7, 1997, the Forum convened a workshop titled Enhancing the Regulatory Decision-Making Process for Direct Food Ingredient Technologies. Workshop speakers and participants discussed legal aspects of the direct food additive approval process, changes in science and technology, and opportunities for reform. Two background papers, which can be found in Appendix A and B, were shared with the participants prior to the workshop. The first paper provided a description and history of the legal framework of the food ingredient approval process and the second paper focused on changes in science and technology practices with emphasis placed on lessons learned from case studies. This document presents a summary of the workshop.

Book Description
Though overall cancer incidence and mortality have continued to decline in recent years, cancer continues to devastate the lives of far too many Americans. In 2009 alone, 1.5 million American men, women, and children were diagnosed with cancer, and 562,000 died from the disease. There is a growing body of evidence linking environmental exposures to cancer. The Pres. Cancer Panel dedicated its 2008¿2009 activities to examining the impact of environmental factors on cancer risk. The Panel considered industrial, occupational, and agricultural exposures as well as exposures related to medical practice, military activities, modern lifestyles, and natural sources. This report presents the Panel¿s recommend. to mitigate or eliminate these barriers. Illus.
