CDC: Eat Cucumbers in 2014 and Get Salmonella? In August 2014, PulseNet, the national molecular subtyping network for foodborne disease surveillance, detected a multistate cluster of Salmonella entericaserotype Newport infections with an indistinguishable pulse-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) pattern (XbaI PFGE pattern JJPX01.0061).* Outbreaks of illnesses associated with this PFGE pattern have previously been linked to consumption of tomatoes harvested from Virginia’s Eastern Shore in the Delmarva region and have not been linked to cucumbers or other produce items (1). To identify the contaminated food and find the source of the contamination, CDC, state and local health and agriculture departments and laboratories, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted epidemiologic, traceback, and laboratory investigations.
A total of 275 patients in 29 states and the District of Columbia were identified, with illness onsets occurring during May 20–September 30, 2014. Epidemiologic Investigation Traceback investigation Discussion.
NCHFP Publications. Brian A. Nummer, Ph.D. National Center for Home Food Preservation May 2002 Introduction The astonishing fact about food preservation is that it permeated every culture at nearly every moment in time. To survive ancient man had to harness nature. In frozen climates he froze seal meat on the ice. In tropical climates he dried foods in the sun. Food by its nature begins to spoil the moment it is harvested. Drying In ancient times the sun and wind would have naturally dried foods. Vegetables and fruits were also dried from the earliest times. Freezing Freezing was an obvious preservation method to the appropriate climates. In America estates had icehouses built to store ice and food on ice. Fermenting Fermentation was not invented, but rather discovered.
Fermentation was a valuable food preservation method. Pickling Pickling is preserving foods in vinegar (or other acid). Pickling may have originated when food was placed in wine or beer to preserve it, since both have a low pH. Curing Canning C. Argon. Solid argon at its melting point -189.3 oC. Only a few elements are not solids at this low temperature; these are hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon. Image Ref (8).

Discovery of Argon Dr. Argon was the first noble gas to be discovered. The first hint of its existence came from English scientist Sir Henry Cavendish as far back as 1785. He knew the nitrogen in air could be reacted with oxygen to form, ultimately, nitrous acid. Cavendish used an electric spark in air to react the oxygen and nitrogen to form nitrogen oxides. Nitrogen oxides are acidic. A small bubble of gas remained [mostly argon]. Interesting Facts about Argon An argon laser (blue) forming images.

Blood Pressure. Mold Info. Serious Mold Health Problems. Calendula Honey. Cholesterol. Advanced Search Help. AskaPatient's new "Advanced Search Form" can help you quickly find exactly the kinds of reviews you are looking for. Here are some examples: Narrowing the results for drugs with hundreds of ratings: Sometimes there are large record sets (resulting in 10 or more pages of results) for popular drugs. Instead of paging through all of the results, try using the "Filter Search" feature or doing an advanced search to zero in on exactly the ratings you are interested in for your particular drug ("Drugname"). Drugs might be prescribed for a myriad of reasons, and are even sometimes prescribed "off-label"; you can zero in on just the people who report taking it for a particular reason. For example, use the Advanced form (or "Filter Search" is even faster if you are just searching for reviews about one drug--the link is near the top of the ratings page) for searches like these: Find the ratings for "DrugName" for patients in a particular age range, say from age 45-55.
Simply type in the reason.
