...Vitamin Supplement æ Increase of vitamin D2 by UV-B exposure during the growth phase of white button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) Hanne L. Kristensen1*, Eva Rosenqvist2 and Jette Jakobsen3 1 Department of Food Science, Aarhus University, Aarslev, Denmark; 2Department of Agriculture and Ecology, Copenhagen University, Copenhagen, Denmark; 3National Food Institute, Technical University of Denmark, Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract Background: Mushrooms are the only non-animal food source of vitamin D. Wild mushrooms have naturally high vitamin D2 content, and cultivated mushrooms produce vitamin D2 from ergosterol when exposed to supplementary UV-B during the post-harvest phase. Objectives: This study investigated the effects of providing supplementary UV-B during the growth phase on vitamin D2 formation and the interactions with growth of mushrooms, as compared to supplementary UV-B during the post-harvest phase or exposure to sunlight for both cultivated and wild mushrooms. Methods: Experiments were carried out with exposure to supplementary UV-B just prior to harvest in the range of 0Á2,400 mJ cm (2. Mushrooms grew for 2 days with or without repeated UV-B exposure each day. Vitamin D2 and growth rate were determined. Some mushrooms were post-harvest treated by exposure at 200 mJ cm (2 supplementary UV-B or natural sunlight, prior to vitamin D2 determination. Results: The content of vitamin D2 was 0.2Á164 mg 100 g (1 fresh weight (FW), and there was a linear relationship between...

...EEP1 Summer 2016 Problem Set 1 For full credit be sure to turn in your calculations. The demand schedule (or demand function) for a good shows the total quantities (q) that buyers are willing to buy at various alternative prices (p) in some period of time. For example, here is a demand function illustrating the very special but convenient case of a linear demand (with q measured in some physical unit of quantity such as bushels or tons and with p measured in dollars per unit): q = 2,100 -50p. Sometimes it is convenient to express this in the inverse form showing the prices that buyers are willing to pay for various quantities. This is called a demand-price function. 1. State the demand-price function corresponding to the given demand function. 2. Plot the corresponding demand schedule on graph paper with q on the horizontal axis (up to 3,000 units) and p on the vertical axis (up to $60 per unit). Label this demand schedule D1. I. The Case of Fixed Supply A supply schedule (or function or curve), defined analogously, shows the total quantities (q) that sellers are willing to sell at various alternative prices (p) in the given period of time. One very special case is that of a "fixed supply" where the quantity supplied is a constant, independent of the price, such as: q = 1,200. (This type of supply may apply, for example, in the short period when a given quantity of a perishable commodity is brought to market and must be sold at any price or go to waste. In...
