The high performance liquid chromatographic method proposed by Carnegie for determining the species of origin of meats in cooked products has been evaluated. The dipeptides anserine, balenine (ophidine) and carnosine have been extracted from the skeletal muscle of animuls in New Zealand am' compared with results obtained in Australia. The presence of significant quantities of halenine in red deer meat is reported for the first time. Limitations of the method are discussed.
This paper reports on an online guided reading program designed and developed by the authors, and implemented in class conditions. The program allows students to read a short story from a computer screen and obtain immediate support, in the form of suggested problem-solving strategies designed to help them overcome the lexical and grammatical difficulties commonly encountered by intermediate language students, at local text level, during the reading process. Based on the analysis of case studies of readers, the chief objective of this study is to gauge the pedagogical relevance of the guided reading program and suggest that it facilitates intermediate language students’ first encounters with literary texts.
