[Introduction]

Konjac is a plant that is found in China, Japan and Indonesia. The plant is part of the genus Amorphophallus. Typically, it thrives in the warmer regions of Asia.

The extract of the Konjac root is referred to as Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a fiber-like substance traditionally used in food recipes, but now it is utilized as an alternative means of weight loss. Along with this benefit, konjac extract contains other benefits for the rest of the body as well.

The main material of the natural konjac gum is fresh konjac, which grow in virgin forest in Hubei area. We use advanced method to distill the KGM, aminophenol, Ca, Fe, Se which are good for health. Konjac is known as“ the seventh nutriment for human”.

Konjac Gum with its special water holiding capacity, stability, emulsibility, thickening property,suspension property and gel propery can especially adopted in food industry.

[Main Function]

1.It could reduce postprandial glycemia, blood cholesterol and blood pressure.

2.It could control appetite and reduce body weight.

3.It could increase insulin sensitivity.
4.It could control insulin resistant syndrome and diabetesII development.
5.It could reduce heart disease.

[Application]

1) Gelatinizer(jelly, pudding, Cheese, soft candy, jam );

2) Stabilizer(meat, beer);

3) Film Former(capsule, preservative)

4) Water-keeping agent( Baked Foodstuff );

5) Thickener (Konjac Noodles, Konjac Stick, Konjac Slice, Konjac Imitating Food stuff);

6) Adherence agent( Surimi );

7) Foam Stabilizer (ice cream, cream, beer)

1.unripe mangoes completely dry (wash well wash well dry with a cotton cloth.) peel the skin,then peel the mangoes into thin strips.
2.spread the thin peeled mango strips on a tray or a large plate and and place under the sun to dry for 3days. Make sure you cover the tray with a net or a thin cloth to prevent insects and dust from getting into contact with the peels.
3.keep under sun light for6 to 8 days.
4.grind well,store amchur powder in a jar.store at room temperature.

Abstract
Pneumococci are major contributors to morbidity and mortality worldwide. They are the major cause of milder respiratory tract infections such as otitis and sinusitis, but also to more severe invasive infections such as community-acquired pneumonia with associated septicemia and meningitis. Even though being a devastating pathogen, pneumococci are also common colonizers of the upper respiratory tract of healthy children where from they may spread to cause disease. Risk groups for acquiring an invasive pneumococcal infection (IPD) include preschool children and the elderly, as well as immunocompromised individuals, splenectomised, and patients with a previous influenza virus infection. Several bacterial virulence factors have been described for pneumococci of which a major one is the capsular polysaccharide. Depending on differences in these capsular structures so far more than 90 different serotypes have been distinguished. Recently so called conjugated vaccines (PCV) have been introduced into the child hood vaccination program in many countries. These vaccines are based on a limited amount (7, 10 or 13) of the capsular serotypes. In Sweden PCVs were introduced in the whole of Sweden year 2009. Vaccine introduction has led to a reduction in the incidence of IPD in vaccinated children but also to serotype replacementand an increase of non-vaccine type disease.

Birgitta Henriques Normark is professor and head physician in Clinical microbiology at Karolinska Institute and Karolinska University hospital, as well as head physician at the Public Health Agency of Sweden. She is also vice dean for recruitment at Karolinska Institutet and a board member of the Swedish Research Council, Medicine and Health.Her research focuses on epidemiology, antibiotic resistance and host-microbe interactions in bacterial infections with special focus on pneumococcal epidemicity, molecular epidemiology, and mechanisms of invasive disease, innate immunity and host-microbe interactions determining disease outcome. The research has been published in 136 publications of which 107 are original peer reviewed articles.
