“…The same could be said for the field of nutritional genomics. There is strong public resistance to this work and funding remains scarce; however, health problems remain that can be effectively treated by dietary therapies [70]. This is, however, a great opportunity for community outreach; the direct involvement of interested or concerned communities in the science that is needed to show the safety and efficacy of biofortified foods.…”

By identifying the relationship between calcium location in the plant cell and nutrient bioavailability, the plant characteristics leading to maximal calcium absorption by humans can be identified. Knowledge of plant cellular and molecular targets controlling calcium location in plants is emerging. These insights should allow for better strategies for increasing the nutritional content of foods. In particular, the use of preparation-free elemental imaging technologies such as synchrotron X-ray fluorescence (SXRF) microscopy in plant biology may allow researchers to understand the relationship between subcellular location and nutrient bioavailability. These approaches may lead to better strategies for altering the location of calcium within the plant to maximize its absorption from fruits and vegetables. These modified foods could be part of a diet for children and adults identified as at-risk for low calcium intake or absorption with the ultimate goal of decreasing the incidence and severity of inadequate bone mineralization.

Bioavailability is a pharmacokinetic term which refers the extent and speed of absorption of the chemicals content in it. After the absorption the drug plays the important role in which the body react i.e. the pharmacodynamics process. Oral drugs, Transdermal drugs, Lipophilic drugs and combined oral drugs all plays the different role after being absorbed and the mode of absorption is also different through various research. The pharmacokinetic parameters (AUC), (C max) and dynamic models express the process of drug ADME reports. Various sample analysis is also being done through various instrumentation and databases. Researches and reports reveal the various side effects of few drugs which are taken orally as well as transdermally and the combine effects are being taken into consideration. The main aim is to analyze the process of drug absorption through various parameters, different instruments and mention the side effects after absorptions.

Biotechnologically-modified Carrots: Calcium Absorption Relative to Milk

Abstract: Background: Biotechnology to increase the nutrient content of fruits and vegetables is an innovative strategy to address insufficient mineral intakes. A novel biotechnologically modified carrot which has higher levels of calcium than control carrots has been developed.
