Due to conditions observed during the inspection, the establishment agreed to discontinue food operations and voluntarily close until it is approved by the Department to resume operations. Inspected Jan 2.

There was a fruit fly infestation on donuts, on walls in food preparation areas and on the wall outside of the toilet rooms; milk was not held at a proper temperature; a funnel that was on the ground was placed back on the shelf without prior cleaning by the person in charge; there was a plunger, fly swatter and a container of bleach in the handwash sink; food employees were donning single use gloves without a prior hand wash; employee jackets and other personal items were stored with retail food.

Clinical trials are understandably a critical and well-known part of the drug discovery, development and approval process, with results often featured in the media. Given the importance of drug safety, it is not surprising that there are a number of additional testing processes for the assessment of drug safety and efficacy. Although these tests are not as publicised as clinical trials, they are still very important. Stability testing is one such example. 

Figure 7A and fig. S10 illustrate additional functionality of the device for potential long-term monitoring of sweat glucose and lactate levels over multiple days. The irreversible nature of the colorimetric assays limits them to a single-use mode, as the reagents cannot be recovered after reacting with sweat chloride and hydronium ion. The concentration range of sweat glucose varies among individuals and fluctuates depending on the blood glucose level. The blood glucose and, subsequently, sweat glucose concentration increases after consumption of food and then gradually stabilizes. Similarly, a previous report suggests correlation between sweat lactate and corresponding blood levels (22). The human trails aim to study these concentration fluctuations in blood and sweat and to explore possible correlations between the two. In the first set of studies, the subjects wear the device for two consecutive days and, on each day, execute a cycling exercise (15 to 20 min) in the morning in fasting state, followed by another cycling bout 20 min after consuming 150 g of sweetened drink and then again 2 hours after lunch in the evening. Separate measurements using commercial blood lactate (Lactate Plus; Nova Biomedical, MA) and blood glucose (Accu-Chek Nano Blood Glucose Meter, Roche Diabetes Care Inc.) meters capture blood lactate and glucose levels before and after each cycling bout, as points of comparison.

Outsourcing stability studies is the best option for pharmaceutical firms. Handing these routine, but vital studies over to experts with established capacity reduces costs and lets in-house staff focus on drug R&D.

Everything in the list above can be mixed and matched to keep you cool and comfortable in warmer climates, and warm in all but the most frigid regions. Remember the old adage that “cotton kills.” All the clothing in your bug out bag should consist of quick-drying fibers designed to keep you warm even when wet. Merino wool is a great all-around choice.
