AB  - Phthalates are a family of synthetic chemicals commonly used as plasticizers for polyvinyl chloride-based polymers. They are used in a variety of commercial consumer products, including children's toys. Exposure to phthalates is associated with various adverse health effects, such as developmental and reproductive disorders, liver and kidney toxicity, etc. In the European Union, but also in the Republic of Serbia, restrictions have been imposed on the presence of seven phthalates in toys. In addition, the European Union has established the Rapid Alert System for Dangerous Non-Food Products (RAPEX) to protect consumers across borders by preventing or restricting the sale and use of non-food articles, including children's toys, that pose a significant health and safety risk. In this work, 118 samples of children's toys from the market of the Republic of Serbia were analysed for the presence of all seven restricted phthalates using the HPLC-DAD method. We also comprehensively analysed the RAPEX notifications of toys posing a chemical risk due to the presence of phthalates from 2012 to 2022. In total, 23.7% of the tested toy samples contained one or more phthalates above 0.1% w/w, which corresponds to the legal limit. DEHP was found above the limit in all non-compliant toy samples, followed by DBP, DINP, BBP and DIDP. DIBP and DNOP were not found in any of the samples. In general, phthalates were present in the tested samples in concentrations ranging from <LOQ to 36.6% (w/w), depending on the type of phthalate detected, with DINP detected in the highest concentration. In the period 2012–2022, 1192 alerts related to non-compliant toys were registered due to the illegal presence of phthalates. Among them, DEHP was present in 94.79% of toy samples, while it was the only phthalate in 58.4% of toy samples. Furthermore, DEHP was present in the highest concentration of about 18.5% (w/w), with a maximum detected concentration of up to 55% (w/w). The results presented in this article show that even more than a decade after the introduction of the ban and restrictions on phthalates in toys, toys are still a significant source of children's exposure to phthalates.

AB  - To examine the butyrate- and beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB)-modulated effects of pre- and probiotic interventions, fasting, and caloric restriction interventions, a systematic literature review was carried out with a subsequent meta-analysis. Three pre-and probiotic intervention randomized control trials (RCTs) were included in the meta-analysis. A significant increase in butyrate (standardized mean difference (SMD) [confidence interval (CI)] 0.34; [0.02–0.67]) and an improvement in depression scores (SMD [CI] 0.15, [−0.35–0.70]) through pre- and probiotic interventions were shown in the meta-analysis. The intervention duration of the included studies ranged from three days to four weeks, with the examined population being healthy adults. Butyrate was measured in either plasma or feces, and the depression score was obtained under the Swedish core affect scale, the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), or the depression, anxiety, and stress scale—21 items (DASS-21). In addition to butyrate, the total SCFA concentration also seems to be positively associated with pre- and probiotic administration (SMD [CI] 0.55 [0.15–0.95]). Despite the significant short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) and butyrate concentration changes, no significant correlation between butyrate and depression or between SCFAs and depression could be shown through linear regression models. Nevertheless, the regression coefficient b1 = 1.57 (p = 0.17) for butyrate suggests a strong, positive connection between butyrate and depression. Additionally, three studies were qualitatively analyzed, examining fasting as an intervention and revealing a connection between fasting, BHB, and depression. The association between fasting, BHB, and depression or mood elevation appeared to be related to BHB concentrations, which may be due to the similar biochemical properties of BHB and butyrate. Furthermore, caloric restrictions as alternatives to fasting were proposed as potential long-term interventions.

AB  - Obesity is considered to be a chronic complex disease that increases the risk of diabetes,
heart diseases and certain cancers. According to the literature, in obese people the gastrointestinal
microbiota is disturbed, which could be the cause of the onset of obesity and related diseases.
Moreover, there are small non-coding RNAs (microRNAs) that are disturbed in obesity, which
are also considered to be a possible mechanism of probiotics’ action. Certain microRNAs are
involved in the development and metabolism of adipose tissue cells, as well as the secretion and
action of insulin, showing that changed expression of certain miRNAs could have a significant
impact on the onset and development of obesity and obesity-related diseases. Thus, miRNAs are
considered to be possible markers for the diagnosis and prognosis of various metabolic diseases,
and possible therapeutic targets for the treatment of obesity and related diseases. Considering the
growing need of the healthcare system for nutraceuticals and dietary supplements that present
effective and safe medical nutritive therapy in obese individuals, this work aimed to assess the
beneficial effects of probiotics on obesity-related microRNAs. In this review, we described the
role of microRNAs and probiotics in obesity and the association between probiotics and obesity-
related microRNAs. Circulating miRNAs’ profile in obese individuals significantly differs from
that of normal-weight individuals. miRNAs such as miR-155, miR-221, miR-24-3p, and miR-
181a are over-expressed, while miR-26b and 125a are under-expressed in obese patients
compared to non-obese individuals. It has been found that supplementation with Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus could downregulate the expression of miR-155 and miR-
221, and upregulate the expression of miR-26b. Supplementation with a probiotic formulation
containing S. boulardii, L. plantarum 299v, and octacosanol led to the downregulation of miR-
155 and miR-24-3p expression. miR-125a and miR-181a were upregulated and downregulated,
respectively, after the intervention with L. delbrueckii and L. rhamnosus. After reviewing the
available literature, we can conclude that probiotics have beneficial effects on microRNAs altered
in obesity, which could provide an effective strategy for the management of obesity.
AB  - Gojaznost se smatra hroničnom, kompleksnom bolešću koja povećava rizik od nastanka drugih oboljenja poput dijabetesa, kardiovaskularnih oboljenja i određenih karcinoma.

Dodatno, postoje male nekodirajuće RNK (mikroRNK) čije su koncentracije promenjene kod gojaznih osoba u poređenju sa osobama normalne telesne mase. Takođe, mikroRNK se smatraju mogućim mehanizmom delovanja probiotika. Određene mikroRNK se smatraju ključnim u procesima razvoja i metabolizma masnog tkiva, kao i u procesima sinteze i delovanja hormona insulina, time ukazujući na to da bi promene u ekspresiji određenih miRNK mogle imati značajan uticaj na nastanak i razvoj gojaznosti i bolesti povezanih sa gojaznošću. Zbog navedenog, miRNK se smatraju mogućim markerima za dijagnozu i praćenje metaboličkih bolesti, ali se razmatraju i kao moguća terapija u tretmanu gojaznosti i oboljenja povezanih sa gojaznošću. U svetlu rastućih potreba sistema zdravstvene zaštite u pogledu dodataka ishrani i nutraceutika koji pružaju efikasnu i bezbednu podršku medicinskoj nutritivnoj terapiji kod gojaznosti, cilj ovog rada bio je da se istraže korisni efekti probiotika na mikroRNK povezane sa gojaznošću. U ovom narativnom pregledu opisali smo ulogu probiotika i mikroRNK u gojaznosti, kao i moguću povezanost probiotika sa mikroRNK koje su izmenjene kod gojaznih ljudi. Profil cirkulišućih miRNK se značajno razlikuje kod gojaznih osoba u poređenju sa osobama normalne telesne mase. Ekspresija miRNK poput miR-155, miR-221, miR-24-3p i miR-181a je značajno povišena, dok je ekspresija miR-26b i miR-125a snižena kod gojaznih osoba u poređenju sa osobama normalne telesne mase. Suplementacija sa Bifidobacterium bifidum i Lactobacillus acidophilus probiotskim sojevima snižava ekspresiju miR-155 i miR-221, dok je ekspresija miR-26b povišena nakon suplementacije ovim sojevima. Probiotska formulacija koja sadrži kombinaciju S. boulardii, L. plantarum 299v i oktakozanola dovela je do smanjenja ekspresije miR-155 i miR-24-3p. Ekspresija miR-125a je bila povećana, dok je ekspresija miR-181a bila snižena nakon suplementacije sojevima L. delbrueckii and L. rhamnosus. Nakon pregleda dostupne literature, možemo zaključiti da probiotici imaju pozitivno dejstvo na mikroRNK izmenjene kod gojaznih osoba, te da bi primena probiotika mogla biti efikasna strategija u tretmanu gojaznosti.

AB  - The World Health Organization highlights that in 2022 around 890 million adults and 160
million children and adolescents globally were obese, indicating a significant public health
concern. Obesity results from an energy imbalance, where calorie intake exceeds calorie
expenditure, leading to an increase in the size of fat cells and subsequently to metabolic
dysfunction and inflammation. Management of obesity involves lifestyle adjustments, including
dietary modifications and increased physical activity, with calorie-restricted diets and meal
replacements often recommended to achieve weight loss and lower overall energy intake. Weight
loss programs include a low-carbohydrate, low-fat, or high-protein diet. In addition, the influence
of the Mediterranean diet and dietary fiber on regulating body weight has been increasingly
studied in recent years. Dietary products for weight control, including meal replacements, are
regulated and offer options for people who want to lose weight. More personalized nutrition
approaches are emerging that focus on individual needs, genetic factors and gut microbiota
composition to optimize health outcomes. Although personalized nutrition promises to explain
how nutrition-related health problems may be solved, further research should investigate health
outcomes in individuals living with obesity.
AB  - Prema podacima Svetske zdravstvene organizacije, 2022. godine je oko 890 miliona odraslih i 160 miliona dece i adolescenata širom sveta bilo gojazno, što daje povoda za značajnu zabrinutost za javno zdravlje. Gojaznost nastaje usled prekomernog unosa i smanjene potrošnje kalorija tokom dužeg vremenskog perioda, a manifestuje se uvećanjem masnog tkiva, telesne težine i pojavom metaboličkih poremećaja. Tretman gojaznosti podrazumeva promene u načinu ishrane i stilu života. Dijete sa ograničenim unosom kalorija i zamene za obroke se često preporučuju za postizanje gubitka telesne težine i smanjenje ukupnog unosa energije. Dijete obuhvataju ishranu sa niskim sadržajem ugljenih hidrata, dijetu sa niskim sadržajem masti ili visokoproteinsku dijetu. Pored toga, poslednjih godina se sve više ispituje uticaj mediteranske ishrane i dijetetskih vlakana u regulaciji telesne težine. Dijetetski proizvodi namenjeni regulaciji telesne težine dizajnirani su da zamene obroke i nude opcije za pojedince koji žele da redukuju telesnu masu. Pojavljuju se personalizovani pristupi ishrani koji se fokusiraju na individualne potrebe, genetske faktore i sastav crevne mikrobiote kako bi se optimizovali zdravstveni ishodi. Iako personalizovana ishrana ima sve veću primenu u nutritivnoj terapiji, potrebna su dalja istraživanja kako bi se bolje razumela njena efikasnost kod pacijenata sa gojaznošću.

Gojaznost nastaje usled prekomernog unosa i smanjene potrošnje kalorija tokom dužeg vremenskog perioda, a manifestuje se uvećanjem masnog tkiva, telesne težine i pojavom metaboličkih poremećaja. Tretman gojaznosti podrazumeva promene u načinu ishrane i stilu života. Dijete sa ograničenim unosom kalorija i zamene za obroke se često preporučuju za postizanje gubitka telesne težine i smanjenje ukupnog unosa energije. Dijete obuhvataju ishranu sa niskim sadržajem ugljenih hidrata, dijetu sa niskim sadržajem masti ili visokoproteinsku dijetu. Pored toga, poslednjih godina se sve više ispituje uticaj mediteranske ishrane i dijetetskih vlakana u regulaciji telesne težine. Dijetetski proizvodi namenjeni regulaciji telesne težine dizajnirani su da zamene obroke i nude opcije za pojedince koji žele da redukuju telesnu masu. Pojavljuju se personalizovani pristupi ishrani koji se fokusiraju na individualne potrebe, genetske faktore i sastav crevne mikrobiote kako bi se optimizovali zdravstveni ishodi. Iako personalizovana ishrana ima sve veću primenu u nutritivnoj terapiji, potrebna su dalja istraživanja kako bi se bolje razumela njena efikasnost kod pacijenata sa gojaznošću.",

AB  - Obesity is often accompanied by low-grade chronic inflammation and metabolic syndrome. It has been established that microbiota influences many physiological processes, including the development of obesity, and dysbiosis has been observed in obese individuals. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of a new probiotic formulation, containing two probiotic strains and the bioactive compound octacosanol, on body weight, metabolic parameters, and concentrations of certain adipocytokines and appetite-regulating hormones in obese women. This double blind placebo-controlled supplementary intervention study included twenty-five women in the intervention group and twenty-three in the placebo group, and it lasted 12 weeks. Daily oral supplementation included 7 × 1010 CFU of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (DSM9843), 5 × 109 CFU of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii (DBVPG6763), and 40 mg of octacosanol or placebo. Body weight, metabolic parameters, adipocytokines, and appetite-regulating hormones were assessed before (T0) and after the intervention (T1). After the intervention, significantly lower median concentrations of CRP (p = 0.005) and IL-6 (p = 0.012) were measured in the intervention group than the baseline, while the median concentrations of ghrelin (p = 0.026) and HDL-cholesterol (p = 0.03) were significantly increased. The intervention group had lower CRP levels (p = 0.023) and higher ghrelin levels (p = 0.006) than the placebo group. Significant changes in BMI between groups were not observed. In summary, although the new probiotic formulation showed beneficial effects on IL-6, CRP, HDL, and ghrelin levels, its potential effects on regulating triglyceride, insulin, and glucose levels require further studies before the novel dietary intervention could be considered a useful adjuvant therapy and an effective strategy for the management of obesity and obesity-associated comorbidities. © 2024 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

AB  - Walnut (Juglans regia L., Juglandaceae) is a deciduous tree mainly known for its delicious and
nutritious nuts, a source for dermatocosmetic and phytoterapeutic products as well as a raw material
in wood industry. It grows wild or semi-wild from the Southeast Europe to the Japan, but is also an
important plantation-grown species. Walnut leaves are also used in folk medicine as an astringent,
antiseptic or to stimulate the secretion of bile and for preparation of traditional herbal medicines for
wound treatment. Unripe walnut fruits are used to prepare liqueur, which is also attributed with
medicinal properties.
In this study, six samples of unripe walnut fruits were randomly collected from different region of
Serbia in period May-June 2022. The samples were extracted with 70% ethanol following
traditional procedure for liqueur preparation: maceration for 40 days on direct sunlight. After this
period, extracts were filtered in dark bottles and kept at 4 °C. The content of total phenolics,
flavonoids and juglon, as well as their anti-DPPH• activity, were determined
spectrophotometrically. The content of total phenolics and flavonoids in investigated samples was
ranged 0.78-2.08 mg gallic acid equivalents/ml and 1.10-1.62 mg catechin equivalents/ml,
respectively. Both parameters showed clear decrease with fruit maturity: the highest values were in
samples of unripe fruits collected in May. In all samples juglon was determined in very low
quantities (up to 18.45 μg/ml). Antioxidant activity of analysed samples was also very pronounced
(over 80% of DPPH• inhibition).
Obtained results pointed out ethanolic extracts of unripe walnut fruits as a rich and valuable sources
of phenolics, with high antioxidative and thus potentially high biological activity.

AB  - Digital transformation in education and relevant calls for action are recognised global priorities aimed to support education and training in the digital age. The experiences from the emergency remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic and recent research findings reveal relevant advantages, challenges, as well as different students and teaching staff perspectives which should be carefully considered and integrated into institutional strategies and policies to improve and enrich students’ learning experience. The present study aimed to explore health sciences students' perspectives on online teaching and learning (T&L) in four domains—Satisfaction, Motivation, Interaction and Challenges, and to identify the preferred T&L models or tools. A total of 1,041 responses were collected, including 476 dental medicine (45.7%), 399 pharmacy (38.3%), and 166 medical students (15.9%). Overall Satisfaction was quite high (4.0 ± 1.2; out of 5), followed by satisfactory Interaction (3.4 ± 1.4), whereas Motivation was quite low on average (3.0 ± 1.5). Challenges in online T&L were not markedly expressed (3.0 ± 1.6). The majority of students (46.6%) opted for the blended model as the preferred T&L model. Moodle lessons were perceived as the most useful online T&L tool (45.5% of students), followed by video materials (32.2%). Other T&L tools which require more active student's role, such as short test/quiz, and group or team assignment were declared as less favourable. The findings from the current study may contribute to raising the awareness of academic staff and higher institutions management about the student attitudes and needs related to online T&L and inform institutional planning, decision-making and policy development.

AB  - Objectives: Edible seeds are usually consumed as common food ingredients. They are
considered to have a rich nutrient profile, containing different macro and micronutrients, as well
as some biologically active compounds with positive health effects, such as different phenolics.
The aim of this work was to determine total phenolics (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC)
in selected commercial seeds samples from the Serbian market. Methods: Samples of nine seeds
were investigated (sesame and black sesame, raw and roasted sunflower, raw and roasted pumpkin,
hemp, chia and linseed). The samples of native seeds and those defatted using dichloromethane
(maceration and Soxhlet extraction) were extracted with 80% methanol. Obtained hydro-methanol
extracts were dried and further analysed using spectrophotometric methods: TPC was determined
using Folin–Ciocalteu (FC) reagent and expressed as gallic acid equivalents (GAE), while TFC was
measured based on the reaction between flavonoids and aluminium chloride and expressed as
catechin equivalents (KE). Results: In general, hydro-methanol extracts of seed samples defatted
using Soxhlet extraction had the highest TPC and TFC contents. TPC values ranged from 9.47 g
GAE/mg (raw pumpkin seed) to over 170 g GAE/mg (raw sunflower seeds). As for TFC, the
highest amount was measured in extracts of defatted raw sunflower seeds (over 150 g KE/mg),
while roasted pumpkin and hemp seeds’ extracts were practically devoid of flavonoids. Conclusion:
Our results confirmed the fact that certain defatted seeds, which are usually considered as waste
products in oil production, could be considered as valuable sources of certain secondary plant
metabolites, implicating further investigations on their composition and potential in the development
of functional foods.

AB  - Objectives: A healthy diet includes the intake of sugar (up to 5%) from natural sources,
because added sugars increase energy but not nutritional value, and are associated with an increased
risk of developing obesity, cardiovascular diseases and hypertension. Sugars present in fresh fruit,
fruit juices and nectars, refreshing soft drinks and alcoholic drinks usually represent half of the
total sugar intake. The aim of this study was to analyze, through surveys, the habits of the student
population regarding the consumption of food from the sources mentioned and to determine the
amount of sugar consumed. Methods: 123 students (male: 36, female: 87), aged 19 to 32, participated
in this research. Data collection was voluntary and anonymous, and the survey was conducted
using an electronic questionnaire during February 2023. The data on the sugar content of the foods
mentioned were taken from the declarations of the products that are available for free sale. Results:
Based on the processed results from the completed questionnaires, it was concluded that from the
sources mentioned, sugar is represented by 3.7% in relation to the total energy intake, and added
sugar by 2.4% if 2000 kcal/day is consumed. In relation to the representation of carbohydrates of
60% in relation to the total energy intake, the sugar content from the tested sources accounted for
6.3%, and added sugar accounted for 4.0%. Students reported that they most often do not consume
hard liquor (88% of respondents), and that they eat a teaspoon of honey/sugar once a day (14% of
respondents). Conclusion: Although the obtained results are very acceptable and encouraging, it
is necessary to act additionally in terms of increasing awareness of the reduced intake of products
with added sugars and their replacement with those that contain biologically active compounds in

abstract = "Objectives: A healthy diet includes the intake of sugar (up to 5%) from natural sources,
because added sugars increase energy but not nutritional value, and are associated with an increased
risk of developing obesity, cardiovascular diseases and hypertension. Sugars present in fresh fruit,
fruit juices and nectars, refreshing soft drinks and alcoholic drinks usually represent half of the
total sugar intake. The aim of this study was to analyze, through surveys, the habits of the student
population regarding the consumption of food from the sources mentioned and to determine the
amount of sugar consumed. Methods: 123 students (male: 36, female: 87), aged 19 to 32, participated
in this research. Data collection was voluntary and anonymous, and the survey was conducted
using an electronic questionnaire during February 2023. The data on the sugar content of the foods
mentioned were taken from the declarations of the products that are available for free sale. Results:
Based on the processed results from the completed questionnaires, it was concluded that from the
sources mentioned, sugar is represented by 3.7% in relation to the total energy intake, and added
sugar by 2.4% if 2000 kcal/day is consumed. In relation to the representation of carbohydrates of
60% in relation to the total energy intake, the sugar content from the tested sources accounted for
6.3%, and added sugar accounted for 4.0%. Students reported that they most often do not consume
hard liquor (88% of respondents), and that they eat a teaspoon of honey/sugar once a day (14% of
respondents). Conclusion: Although the obtained results are very acceptable and encouraging, it
is necessary to act additionally in terms of increasing awareness of the reduced intake of products
with added sugars and their replacement with those that contain biologically active compounds in
addition to natural sugar composition.",

AB  - The disposal of waste generated in the agri-food industry is one of the greatest challenges
in achieving sustainable development. Although agri-food residues are a potential source of
bioactive compounds with proven health benefits, they are largely unused and disposed of as
organic waste. The recovery of bioactive compounds from agri-food waste to obtain products
with high biological value, such as functional foods and nutraceuticals, is an idea that stems from
the concept of bioeconomy and combines environmental issues with economically viable
production. Some of the main agri-food wastes in Serbia that have the potential to be recycled
into value-added products are apple, plum, grape, tomato, and beet pomace, and oilseed cakes.
Bioactive compounds isolated from these wastes include polyphenols, fibers, essential fatty acids,
minerals, various volatiles and pigments. This article focuses on the most common food wastes
and the potential reuse of these undervalued material to produce value-added products such as
functional foods, nutraceuticals or food additives.

AB  - Several studies report the important role of an altered gut microbiota in the development of obesity, highlighting the potential use of probiotics in the treatment of obesity. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a novel probiotic approach on the expression of specific miRNAs and mRNAs associated with obesity in combination with the hypocholesterolemic octacosanol. Twenty overweight/obese women participated in a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study and were randomly divided into two groups: the intervention group (daily one capsule containing Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (DSM9843), Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii, and 40 mg octacosanol; N = 12) and the placebo group (N = 8). Changes in lipid parameters and expression of miRNAs and mRNAs were assessed before (T0) and after the 12-week intervention (T1). After the intervention, the expression of miR-155-5p (9.38 ± 0.85 vs. 8.38 ± 1.06, p = 0.05) and miR-24-3p (3.42 ± 0.38 vs. 2.71 ± 0.97, p = 0.031) showed significant decreases in the intervention group when compared to the control group. At T1, the expression of miR-155-5p (8.69 ± 1.31 vs. 9.3 ± 0.85, p = 0.04), miR-125b-5p (5.41 ± 1.18 vs. 5.99 ± 1.36, p = 0.049), and TNF-α (10.24 ± 1.66 vs. 11.36 ± 1.12, p = 0.009) were significantly decreased in the intervention group. No changes in lipids and anthropometric parameters were observed. The novel probiotic approach had a positive effect on regulating the expression of certain miRNAs and mRNAs important for regulating inflammation and adipogenesis, which are essential for obesity onset and control.

AB  - Infant formula and follow-on formula, baby food and food supplements are important sources of essential nutrients for infants and young children. It is therefore important to monitor the nutrient content of these products. The content of vitamins A, D, E, C and B group was determined in 121 samples (44 samples of infant and follow-on formulas, baby foods, foods for special medical purposes and 77 of food supplements for children. High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Fluorescence and Diode Array Detector (HPLC-FLD-DAD) methods, were used for analysis. Among these samples, almost every third sample was outside of the defined tolerance range. The biggest deviations were found for vitamins A and E. The obtained values in foods for infants and young children for vitamins A and E was 17–147 % and 24–140 % of the declared value, respectively, whereas for food supplements, they were 5–150 % and 52–205 %, respectively. The highest values for vitamin E were in instant drinks (80–203 % of the declared value). The content of vitamins D and B2 in food supplements in liquid form was 10–127 % and 11–110 % of the declared value, respectively. Considering that these foods are often the only source of essential nutrients for infants and children, these results show the need for regular monitoring of the composition of these products.

AB  - Fruits of Lycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae), known as wolfberries or goji berries, have
been long used in traditional medicine and nutrition in Asian countries. However, in recent
years, they have become popular in Europe, including Serbia. However, there are limited
data on the chemical composition of goji berries cultivated in our country. This study aimed
to estimate and perform a comparative analysis of the mineral content of goji berries from
six locations in Serbia. After microwave digestion, macro- (K, Na, P, S, Mg, Ca) and
microelement (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr, Mn, Mo) contents in analyzed samples were determined by the
optical emission spectrometry with induced coupled plasma (ICP-OES). As expected, mineral
concentrations varied significantly among goji berry samples from different locations (p <
0.05). In general, the decreasing orders of minerals in goji berries were: K > P > S > Na > Mg >
Ca > Zn > Fe > Cu > Mn > Cr > Mo. According to the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA)
values, dried goji berries (30 g) provide a rich source of Cr and Cu, while their contribution
to the daily intake of other minerals was below 15% RDA.
AB  - Plodovi Lycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae), poznatiji kao vučje bobice ili godži, imaju
dugu istoriju upotrebe u tradicionalnoj medicini i ishrani stanovnika azijskih zemalja, a
poslednjih godina su sve popularniji u Evropi, uključujući i Srbiju. Međutim, nema mnogo
podataka o hemijskom sastavu plodova godži gajenih u našoj zemlji. Cilj ovog rada je bio da
se izvrši komparativna analiza mineralnog sastava plodova godži prikupljenih sa šest
različitih lokacija u Srbiji. Nakon prethodne mikrotalasne digestije, sadržaj makro- (K, Na, P,
S, Mg, Ca) i mikroelemenata (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr, Mn, Mo) u ispitivanim uzorcima suvih plodova
godži, određen je primenom optičke emisione spektrometrije sa indukovano spregnutom
plazmom (ICP-OES). Kao što je i očekivano, dobijeni rezultati ukazuju na statistički značajne
razlike u sadržaju mineralnih materija u plodovima godži prikupljenih sa različitih lokacija
(p < 0,05). Generalno, mineralne materije su zastupljene po sledećem opadajućem redosledu
koncentracija: K > P > S > Na > Mg > Ca > Zn > Fe > Cu > Mn > Cr > Mo. Utvrđeni sadržaj
makro- i mikroelemenata u jednoj porciji (30 g suvih plodova godži), u odnosu na nutritivne
referentne vrednosti (NRV), ukazuje da su plodovi godži bogat izvor Cr i Cu, dok je doprinos
jedne porcije plodova godži dnevnom unosu ostalih mineralnih materija ispod 15% NRV.

abstract = "Fruits of Lycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae), known as wolfberries or goji berries, have
been long used in traditional medicine and nutrition in Asian countries. However, in recent
years, they have become popular in Europe, including Serbia. However, there are limited
data on the chemical composition of goji berries cultivated in our country. This study aimed
to estimate and perform a comparative analysis of the mineral content of goji berries from
six locations in Serbia. After microwave digestion, macro- (K, Na, P, S, Mg, Ca) and
microelement (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr, Mn, Mo) contents in analyzed samples were determined by the
optical emission spectrometry with induced coupled plasma (ICP-OES). As expected, mineral
concentrations varied significantly among goji berry samples from different locations (p <
0.05). In general, the decreasing orders of minerals in goji berries were: K > P > S > Na > Mg >
Ca > Zn > Fe > Cu > Mn > Cr > Mo. According to the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA)
values, dried goji berries (30 g) provide a rich source of Cr and Cu, while their contribution
to the daily intake of other minerals was below 15% RDA., Plodovi Lycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae), poznatiji kao vučje bobice ili godži, imaju
dugu istoriju upotrebe u tradicionalnoj medicini i ishrani stanovnika azijskih zemalja, a
poslednjih godina su sve popularniji u Evropi, uključujući i Srbiju. Međutim, nema mnogo
podataka o hemijskom sastavu plodova godži gajenih u našoj zemlji. Cilj ovog rada je bio da
se izvrši komparativna analiza mineralnog sastava plodova godži prikupljenih sa šest
različitih lokacija u Srbiji. Nakon prethodne mikrotalasne digestije, sadržaj makro- (K, Na, P,
S, Mg, Ca) i mikroelemenata (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr, Mn, Mo) u ispitivanim uzorcima suvih plodova
godži, određen je primenom optičke emisione spektrometrije sa indukovano spregnutom
plazmom (ICP-OES). Kao što je i očekivano, dobijeni rezultati ukazuju na statistički značajne
razlike u sadržaju mineralnih materija u plodovima godži prikupljenih sa različitih lokacija
(p < 0,05). Generalno, mineralne materije su zastupljene po sledećem opadajućem redosledu
koncentracija: K > P > S > Na > Mg > Ca > Zn > Fe > Cu > Mn > Cr > Mo. Utvrđeni sadržaj
makro- i mikroelemenata u jednoj porciji (30 g suvih plodova godži), u odnosu na nutritivne
referentne vrednosti (NRV), ukazuje da su plodovi godži bogat izvor Cr i Cu, dok je doprinos
jedne porcije plodova godži dnevnom unosu ostalih mineralnih materija ispod 15% NRV.",

AB  - Obesity could be associated with enhanced platelet (PL) function and thrombosis.
Also, changes in gut microbiota composition were observed in obese patients, and probiotics
supplementation has been shown to improve some of the obesity-associated metabolic
parameters. This study aimed to determine the possible effects of probiotic supplementation
on platelet morphology in overweight/obese premenopausal women.Twenty overweight
(BMI = 25.0-29.9 kg/m2) and obese (BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m2) women participated in double-
blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study. They were randomly assigned to receive one
capsule daily of probiotics (7x1010 CFU Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (DSM9843), 5x109
CFU Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii and 40mg octacosanol; N=10) or placebo
(N=10) for 3 months. To determine changes in the parameters of platelet activation - the
platelet count (PC), platelet distribution width (PDW), Feret diameter, and hypogranular
appearance, blood samples were obtained for an automated hematology analyser and
peripheral smears staining. Although difference in PC was not found between groups,
supplementation with probiotics decreased PDW compared to the placebo group (p<0.05).
Regarding platelets diameter, there is an decrease in group supplemented with probiotics
compared to placebo, however, a statistical difference has not been reached. Further, the
proportion of hypogranular PL was increased in a probiotic-supplemented group compared
to the placebo group (p<0.01). In conclusion, probiotic supplementation achieved
improvements in platelets morphology and hematological indices in overweight/obese
premenopausal women.
AB  - Gojaznost je često povezana sa povećanom funkcijom krvnih pločica i trombozom.
Takođe, istraživanja ukazuju na promenjen sastav mikrobioma creva kod gojaznih osoba,
kao i da suplementacija određenim probioticima može imati pozitivan uticaj na telesnu
masu. Cilj rada je bio da se ispita uticaj suplementacije probiotskog preparata na morfološke
karakteristike krvnih pločica u randomizovanoj, dvostruko-slepoj, placebo-kontrolisanoj
studiji. U tu svrhu, regrutovano je 20 žena sa prekomernom težinom (BMI ≥ 25,0 kg/m2) koje
su podeljene u dve grupe. Prva grupa je pila dnevno jednu kapsulu probiotskog preparata
tokom tri meseca (kombinaciju soja Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (DSM9843),
Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii i 40 mg oktakozanola; N = 10), dok je druga grupa
bila placebo grupa. Određen je broj krvnih pločica, i njihova raspodela po volumenu (eng.
platelet distribution width, PDW), a zatim je posmatrana morfologija krvnih pločica i
izmeren njihov dijametar iz krvnih razmaza. Analiza je pokazala da su krvne pločice kod
gojaznih/žena sa prekomernom težinom uglavnom krupne, što je jedan od pokazatelja
njihove aktivnosti. U interventoj grupi nije zapažena promena u broju krvnih pločica, ali je
značajno smanjen PDW u poređenju sa placebo grupom (p < 0,05). Dalje, pokazano je da je
udeo hipogranularnih krvnih pločica bio povećan u poređenju sa placebo grupom (p < 0,01).
Ovi rezultati ukazuju na pozitivan efekat probiotika na morfološke karakteristike krvnih
pločica i mogućnost primene probiotika u regulaciji njihove aktivnosti u patološkim
stanjima.

AB  - Besides iodine deficiency, autoimmune Hashimoto thyroiditis is the leading cause of
hypothyroidism globally, characterized by the increased titer of thyroid autoantibodies and
destruction of thyroid cells. Graves' disease is the most common etiology of hyperthyroidism
worldwide. Patients with thyroid dysfunction often require dietary modifications. Popular
interventions include supplementation with certain vitamins and minerals, as well as trace
elements such as iodine and selenium. The intake of food containing goitrogens should be limited.
Goitrogens are substances of plant origin that interfere with the production of thyroid hormones,
increasing the risk for goiter and hypothyroidism. The primary dietary sources of goitrogens are
cruciferous vegetables, soy products, starchy plants, and some fruits. Beyond essential nutrients,
there has been an increasing interest in using specific nutraceuticals, including myoinositol, L-
carnitine, melatonin, and resveratrol, as potential preventive and therapeutic agents in thyroid
diseases. Even though current evidence promotes some beneficial outcomes of these
nutraceuticals, further investigations are needed to clarify dose-dependent effects, duration of
supplementation, combination in different clinical settings, and the exact mechanism of their
action in thyroid disorders.
AB  - Pored nedostatka joda, najčešća etiologija hipotireoze u razvijenim zemljama je Hašimoto tireoiditis, koji karakteriše povišen nivo serum autoantitela i limfocitna infiltracija štitaste žlezde. Grejvsova bolest je vodeći uzrok hipertireoza na globalnom nivou. Pacijenti sa oboljenjem štitaste žlezde često zahtevaju modifikaciju dijetarnog režima. Popularne intervencije uključuju suplementaciju određenim vitaminima, mineralima i mikroelementima kao što su jod i selen. Preporučuje se ograničen unos namirnica koje sadrže goitrogene supstance jer ometaju normalnu sintezu tiroidnih hormona, povećavajući rizik za nastanak strume i hipotireoze. Primarni izvori goitrogena u ishrani su kruciferno povrće, proizvodi od soje, skrobne biljke i pojedine vrste voća. Osim esencijalnih nutrijenata, postoji sve veće interesovanje za primenu specifičnih nutraceutika u prevenciji i koterapiji bolesti štitaste žlezde, kao što su mioinozitol, L-karnitin, melatonin i rezveratrol. Trenutni dokazi ukazuju na moguće promotivne efekte ovih jedinjenja u oboljenjima štitaste žlezde. Potrebna su dalja ispitivanja koja bi pratila uticaj doze i dužine suplementacije nutraceutika i potvrdila tačne mehanizme njihovog delovanja u poremećajima funkcije štitaste žlezde.

AB  - Nuts and seeds are an indispensable part of the plant-based diet, which is becoming increasingly popular due to the evidence of their health benefits and contribution to sustainability and planetary health. Since the health effects of consuming nuts and seeds directly depend on their nutritional composition and consumed amount, it is essential to know the exact chemical composition of each nut and seed so that appropriate dietary interventions can be adequately planned. The present study aimed to examine the chemical composition of nuts and seeds obtained from the Serbian market and to highlight the similarities and differences in their nutritional composition. In twenty-four samples of nuts and seeds, the content of total lipids, including fatty acid profile, total proteins, including amino acid profile, total carbohydrates (sugars and fibers), phytosterols, and minerals were determined. Content of selected nutrients in grams (g) or milligrams (mg) of nuts and seeds was expressed in one portion (28 g) and as a percentage of contribution of Reference Intakes (% RI) and Dietary Reference Value (% DRV) for macronutrients and minerals, respectively. Some of the seed representatives appeared to be rich sources of essential omega-3 fatty acid, α-linolenic acid (ALA) (flax seed vs. walnut, 6.50 vs. 0.56 g per portion, respectively), dietary fibers (chia seed vs. raw almond, 10.6 vs. 3.4 g per portion, respectively), calcium (black sesame seed vs. almond roasted, 32.4% NRV vs. 8.1% NRV per portion, respectively), magnesium (hemp seed vs. Brazil nut, 38.3% NRV vs. 27.8% NRV per portion, respectively), and zinc (hemp seed vs. pine nut, 21.4% NRV vs. 17.6% NRV per portion, respectively). Our results highlighted the crucial role of seeds in the diet, especially as a better source of nutrients compared to nuts. Furthermore, it was seen that nuts and seeds are different and complementary in their composition. Thus, in order to meet the needs for certain nutrients for which nuts and seeds are used as dietary sources (essential fatty acids, minerals, dietary fibers), it would be beneficial to combine both nuts and seeds as a part of a healthy dietary pattern.

AB  - This study aimed to investigate the short-term effects of three magnesium (Mg) dietary supplements containing mineral immediately available for absorption on Mg biochemical status indices (ionized and total Mg), as well as their effects on electrolytes levels in healthy female young adults (n = 61). After a 10-days intervention period supplementation with powder/granulate containing Mg oxide led to an increase in both ionized Mg concentration and % in total Mg in comparison with the baseline. Supplementation with Mg citrate was associated with the significant increase in % of ionized fraction and decrease in serum total Mg concentration. By contrast, among participants consuming Mg carbonate in the form of effervescent tablets ionized Mg concentration and % in total Mg decreased, without detectable changes in serum total Mg. In conclusion, after the short-term supplementation period, Mg oxide demonstrated superior bioavailability compared to the other examined Mg supplements without affecting other minerals’ levels.

AB  - Many types of vegetable oils produce around the world. They are useful in nutrition,
prevention and treatment of diseases. Some oils traditionally have been well known for a long
time and have been shown many potential health benefits, such as, cardioprotective effect,
effect on digestion, risk of some cancer and it is also used in the treatment of skin infections.
This work was conducted to study some quality criteria of oil extracted from seven different
raw seeds purchased in the Serbian market, namely: sunflowers, sesame seeds, black sesame
seeds, tickles seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds and hemp seeds. Oils are essentially regarded in
terms of quality based on their free fatty acid, iodine value and peroxides value. Oils were
extracted from the seeds by cold extraction with petroleum ether. Quality characteristics,
such as refractive index, acid value, peroxide value, iodine value and saponification value and
unsaponifiable matter were determined. For the determination of these parameters, official
methods (ISO 6320; ISO660; ISO 3960; ISO 3961; ISO 3657 and ISO 18609, respectively) were
used. The contents of investigated parameters in seed samples were determined in the range
of 1.467 to 1.485 nD for refractive index; 1.62 to 4.95 mg KOH/g for acid value; 5.21 to 7.45
for peroxide value; 118 to 197 for iodine value; 180 to 193 for saponification value and 3.14
to 7.26 g/kg for the unsaponifiable matter.
Data obtained in this investigation indicate that all quality parameters of the seed samples,
except peroxide value , comply with the national and Codex standards.

AB  - Introduction: Synchronous lectures tend to be used as the
prevalent method of online instruction, irrespective of
notable differences and obvious limitations when compared
to their in-person delivery. Study aim was to assess students’
perspective on online lectures held during the emergency
remote teaching (ERT) shift due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Method: Students were invited to take part in online survey
related to their experience with ERT. Survey included 25 items
related to: satisfaction (14 items), motivation (three items),
interaction with peers and lecturers (four items), and
perceived challenges (four items). A 5-point Likert scale was
employed. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS
software.
Results: A total of 387 students participated in the survey.
The majority of respondents (79.3%) were junior students.
Among the respondents, 72.6% reported no previous
experience with online learning. Although a relatively high
level of satisfaction was reported (mean score 3.91 ± 0.75),
challenges were also scored relatively high (3.05 ± 0.99),
while interaction was scored somewhat lower (2.98 ± 0.73),
and the lowest mean score was observed for motivation (2.73
± 0.58). Students reported having trouble maintaining
motivation, concentration and focus during online lectures,
which usually took many hours per day. Interaction with
peers was reported as unsatisfactory (2.48 ± 1.46), whereas it
was more feasible with lecturers (3.24 ± 1.42). Students were
quite satisfied with the ability to organise their time flexibly
(71.4%), and with the workload (54.5%), while they were less
convinced that online sessions provided enough
opportunities to reflect on what was learnt (50.1% agree,
25.1% neither agree nor disagree).
Conclusions: The results obtained indicate that students are
somewhat hesitant with respect to online lectures as the
main mode of instruction. Lectures, generally, place students
in a passive role, which is further increased in online delivery.
In order to support students’ engagement and success, online
lectures should be combined with more active instructional
strategies.

examine the effect of short-term Mg supplementation on
iron status in healthy female participants.
Methods: One hundred healthy female students of the
University of Belgrade - Faculty of Pharmacy participated the
study during eleven intervention days. Students ingested Mg
preparations with the same dose of the active substance. The
analysis included the measurement of serum iron, unsaturat-
ed iron binding capacity (UIBC), total iron binding capacity
(TIBC), total Mg (tMg), ionized Mg (iMg), complete blood
count, met-, carboxy- and oxy-haemoglobin (metHgb,
COHgb, O2Hgb). Transferrin concentrations and percentage
of transferrin saturation (SAT) were calculated manually. The
association among the analyzed biochemical parameters was
examined using polynomial regression. A principal compo-
nent analysis (PCA) was used for the evaluation of interde-
pendence between the analyzed parameters.
Results: A statistically significant trend for change in O2Hgb
(%) by tertiles of iMg concentrations was found (P = 0.029).
Serum tMg reached significant positive correlation with the
SAT at concentration levels greater than 0.9 mmol/L, after
11 days of intervention (R2=0.116). Ionized Mg in a con-
centration higher than 0.6 mmol/L is positively correlated
with SAT and serum Fe (R2=0.214; 0.199, respectively).
PCA revealed variability of 64.7% for two axes after 11 days.
Conclusions: Mg supplementation leads to an improvement
in the certain iron status parameters even in individuals with
optimal levels of these indices. However, caution should be
exercised when supplementing Mg, and laboratory monitor-
ing of the interaction is required.

AB  - Although it is considered that optimal nutrition could provide all essential nutrients
and active compounds, various dietary regimes are often not following the relevant
recommendations. On the contrary, nutritional status is closely related to the immune
system. Namely, insufficient caloric intake or a lack of a nutrient can primarily weaken the
immune response. The gastrointestinal tract plays an essential role in the function of the
immune system, which is both the place of absorption of nutrients and the body's immune
defence. Globally, the most prominent cause of immunodeficiencies is undernutrition and
starvation, up to 50 % of undeveloped countries' populations. Undernutrition negatively
affects both innate and adaptive immunity; considering these facts, it is clear that a
prolonged low caloric intake could affect immunity adversely. Since the sixties, World Health
Organisation has considered relations between nutrition and immunity, and nutritional
immunology is a newer scientific discipline. Later, the precise relationship between low
protein intake and lymphoid tissue involution was defined. Generally, the deficiencies of
energy, proteins, iron, iodine, vitamin A, zinc and calcium are the most common. It is
estimated that every third person is being affected globally. Prolonged hypercaloric intake
and resulting obesity could also exhibit immunocompromising effects through inflammation
and hyperactivation of the immune system. The negative impact on the immune system
could also be provoked by intense physical activity, infective agents, and emotional stress.
AB  - Iako se stručna javnost slaže da se odgovarajući unos nutrijenata može obezbediti
dobro izbalansiranom ishranom, u opštoj populaciji su zastupljeni različiti režimi ishrane
koji u potpunosti ne slede preporuke relevantnih tela. Sa druge strane, nutritivni status je u
bliskoj vezi sa imunskim sistemom. Naime, nedovoljan kalorijski unos ili nedostatak nekog
nutrijenta prvenstveno može dovesti do slabljenja imunskog odgovora. Važnu ulogu u
funkciji imunskog sistema ima i gastrointestinalni trakt koji predstavlja mesto apsopcije
nutrijenata, ali i imunološke odbrane organizma. Najčešć i uzrok imunodeficijencije u svetu je
pothranjenost. i to kod čak 50% stanovništva u zemljama trećeg sveta. Pothranjenost dovodi
do poremećaja i urođenog i stečenog imunskog odgovora. Imajući u vidu ove činjenice, jasno
se nameće zaključak da dugotrajni režimi smanjenog kalorijskog unosa mogu ispoljiti sličan
efekat. Nutritivna imunologija je relativno mlada naučna disciplina koja se bavi ovom
problematikom, a šezdesetih godina izlazi monografija Svetske zdravstvene organizacije na
ovu temu. Sedamdesetih je uspostavljena jasna veza izmedju proteinske malnutricije i
involucije limfoidnog tkiva, pa i timusa. Globalno, među najzastupljenijijim deficitima su
deficit energetskog unosa, proteina, gvožđa, joda, vitamina A, D, cinka i kalcijuma, a procena
je da je svaka treća osoba u svetu pogođena nekim od nutritivnih deficita. Dugotrajan
prekomeran kalorijski unos kao i posledična gojaznost, takođe mogu ispoljiti
imunokompromitujući efekat i to kroz inflamaciju, kao i hiperaktivaciju imunskog odgovora.
Negativan efekat na imunski sistem mogu imati i veoma intenzivan fizički napor, kao i
psihički stress, i različiti infektivni agensi.
