Specific vegetable strains or varieties may exhibit significant differences in their tendency to bolt.
Ambient MS of foods is usually performed in a targeted manner for rapid analysis of, e.g., pesticide residues on fruit and vegetables [ 25, 26] or for profiling of specific vegetable oils [ 31].
Despite many studies on diet and bladder cancer, there are areas that remain unexplored including meat mutagens, specific vegetable groups, and vitamins from diet.
These in turn have been combined with the proportions of PUFA in specific vegetable oil types and the relative food utilisation of different vegetable oils based on oil trade statistics to estimate intakes of different vegetable oils and fats by European consumers on a country-by-country basis.
There is also a lack of consistent epidemiologic data that demonstrate one particular fruit or vegetable group is protective against bladder cancer, despite the fact that clinical studies that have shown specific vegetable groups, such as brassica and allium, activate glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), which act to minimise oxidative stress (Lampe et al, 2000; Asaduzzaman Khan et al, 2010).
We also examined data from the Sri Lankan Department of Census and Statistics to examine the yields of 13 specific vegetable crops and rice for 1990 2003, along with the costs of rice production.
Specific vegetable and animal oils and fat were incorporated into each diet to attenuate differences in the amounts of SFAs and unsaturated fatty acids between treatments (see Supplemental Table 1 under "Supplemental data" in the online issue).
Match your herbicide to your type of weed, and check that it does not have any harmful effects on your specific vegetable crops.
Frequent watering is often necessary, depending on the specific vegetable you choose to grow, and you may need to supplement natural light with artificial grow lights if the gray winter skies do not let much light in through your windows.
Always research a herbicide's effect on your specific vegetables and nearby plants before using, and select one that targets your type of weed (such as grass or broad-leaf weeds).
It seems unlikely that high intakes of fruit and vegetables in general have a significant protective effect, but it is still possible that specific vegetables rich in isoflavones, especially soyabeans, might have a protective effect by reducing the oestrogenic stimulation of the breast cells (Michels et al, 2007).
