Background Neglected tropical diseases, such as soil-transmitted helminths and schistosomiasis, are prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in Nigeria. Mass drug administration is the primary control intervention, but the coverage and utilization of these programs are often inadequate. This study aimed to investigate community perceptions of school-based mass drug administration programs for these infections in Nigeria and to identify the barriers to their utilization and coverage. Methodology/Principal Findings The study used a qualitative research approach, involving focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with stakeholders involved in neglected tropical disease control programs in Ogun State, Nigeria. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to guide the exploration of ideas, and the data were analyzed using the QRS Nvivo 12 software package. The study found several barriers such as poor drug acceptability, accessibility, and effectiveness, low knowledge and awareness of the diseases and control interventions, inadequate community engagement and involvement, and weak health system and partner support to the utilization and coverage of control interventions for soil-transmitted helminths and schistosomiasis. The study also identified recommendations for addressing these barriers, including community sensitization and engagement, improving drug distribution and effectiveness, strengthening health system support, and enhancing partner collaboration and coordination. Conclusions/Significance The study revealed correct perceptions of transmission but some misconceptions about disease causation, transmission, and drug safety. Participants expressed a desire for better sensitization campaigns and more assurances of their safety. To improve mass drug administration programs, the study recommends strengthening health education messages and increasing the visibility of on-site medical personnel. The findings have implications for improving the effectiveness of these programs and reducing the burden of intestinal parasitic infections in the community. The study highlights the need for community engagement and education, health system support, and partner collaboration to ensure the successful implementation of mass drug administration programs.

“…Malonaldehyde is a breakdown product of the lipid hydroperoxides and peroxides that are formed during lipid oxidation and is measured in terms of TBARS content 59 (Figure 4). The findings showed that the TBARS values for C-S (20th day), SK-S (24th day), and LS-S (24th day) steadily increased from an initial value of 0.26 ± 0.03 to 0.63 ± 0.05 mg MDA kg −1 , 0.32 ± 0.01 to 0.64 ± 0.02 mg MDA kg −1 , and 0.27 ± 0.01 to 0.61 ± 0.04 mg MDA kg −1 , respectively.…”

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of the kiln (SK-S) and liquid smoking (LS-S) processes on the quality of inulin-fortified emulsion-type Pangasius mince sausages. The moisture content during the storage significantly ( p < 0.05) decreased in C-S (control) sausages and increased ( p < 0.05) in SK-S and LS-S sausages. The protein content decreased ( p < 0.05) in C-S, SK-S, and LS-S throughout the storage period. Initially, among the three processed sausages, LS-S showed a lower pH value, and as the days of storage progressed, all the treatments exhibited a declining trend ( p < 0.05). A significant ( p < 0.05) increase in the PV was observed in all the sausages during the storage days at 5 ± 1 °C, but the intensity of the increase was lower in SK-S and LS-S. The total viable count of C-S and SK-S sausages reached the limit of acceptability (6 log 10 cfu g –1 ) on the 20th day and on the 24th day of storage. The electrophoretic protein pattern of LS-S samples exhibited retention of all bands, indicating the lower proteolysis of MHC, actin, and troponin T in comparison with other treatments. The hardness ( p < 0.05) and cohesiveness ( p > 0.05) values of both SK-S and LS-S reduced as the storage days progressed. The present study indicates that the emulsion-type Pangasius sausages incorporated with inulin powder (2%) exposed to kiln smoking and commercial liquid smoking retained good-to-better sensory attributes up to day 16 (C-S) and day 20 (SK-S and LS-S) under refrigerated storage at 5 ± 1 °C in low-density vacuum polyethylene (LDPE) pouches.

“…Lipid Oxidation of Minced Pork Wrapped with PLA/TEC and PLA/TEC/10CV@NZ Films 2-Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) is an important quality index for pork meat preservation [56]. TBARS value reflects the content of malonaldehyde, one of the degradation products of lipid hydro peroxides and peroxides formed during the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and thus TBARS value is widely used as an indicator of the degree of lipid oxidation during the deterioration of pork meat [57].The obtained mean TBARS values as a function of the kind of film used and the storage time are listed in Table S7. The independent-sample Median Test and pairwise comparisons of all the obtained films according to the mean values of TBARS are listed in Figure S9 and Table S8.…”

Today, enhancing food preservation and safety in the spirit of the bioeconomy suggests the use of biodegradable polymers such as poly-L-lactic acid (PLA) in food packaging and the replacement of chemical additives with natural antioxidant/antibacterial agents such as essential oils and their derivatives. Herein a novel carvacrol (CV) @ natural zeolite (NZ) nanohybrid was developed by employing a new vacuum adsorption desorption method which results in the adsorption of a high CV amount on NZ equal to 61.7 %wt. This CV@NZ nanohybrid was successfully dispersed in a PLA/triethyl citrate (TEC) matrix via a melt-extrusion process to obtain PLA/TEC/xCV@NZ nanocomposite films with 5, 10 and 15 CV@NZ %wt. content. PLA/TEC/xNZ films were also de-veloped for comparison. The overall study resulted in a biodegradable active film with the fol-lowing properties: 10%wt. CV@NZ content (PLA/TEC/10CV@NZ), self-healable properties, 22% higher tensile strength and 40% higher elongation at break, 45% higher water barrier and 40% higher oxygen barrier than pure PLA/TEC matrix. This film also provides high CV release content, high CV control release rate as well as significant antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity against the food pathogens Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica spp. enterica serovar Typhimurium. This film not only succeeds in extending the shelf-life of fresh pork minced, as shown by total variable count measurements in four days, but also prevents lipid oxidation of fresh minced pork and maintains the minced meat in higher nutritional conditions, as revealed by the heme iron content determination, and in a much better and acceptable sensory condition than the commercial packaging paper.
