Vitamins are divided into fat soluble and water soluble groups. Fat soluble vitamins include A, D, E and K. Water soluble vitamins include the B complex vitamins and vitamin C. Vitamins serve essential roles like visual processes, immune function, bone health and acting as antioxidants. They are obtained through the diet or synthesized in the body and deficiencies can cause diseases like rickets, scurvy or neurological issues depending on the vitamin. Requirements vary based on species, life stage, environment and health status.
Vitamins are substances that our body needs for proper grow and development.It is an essential nutrient that body cannot produce enough of and that's why it needs to get from food.
Vitamins are of 13 types and can be classified as Fat soluble vitamins (A,D,E & K ) and Water Soluble Vitamin (Vitamin-C & B-complex).

Small amounts of vitamins are required in the diet to promote growth, reproduction, and health. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are called the fat-soluble vitamins, because they are soluble in organic solvents and are absorbed and transported in a manner similar to that of fats.
Introduction
Vitamin K is a group of lipophilic, hydrophobic vitamins that are needed for the posttranslational modification of certain proteins, mostly required for blood coagulation but also involved in metabolism pathways in bone and other tissue. They are 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives. The naturally occurring forms of vitamin K are all fat soluble.
chemistry:
The naturally occurring forms of vitamin K are all fat soluble. They are stored in the liver, though not to any great extent. Stable to heat and reducing agents, they are destroyed by light, acid, alkali, oxidizing agents, and alcohol. Most supplemental forms of chlorophyll, as a vitamin K source, are water soluble. K1: phytonadione or phylloquinone (Aquamephyton): is a natural derivative from fish or plants. K2: menaquinone: fat-soluble form made by intestinal bacteria. K3: menadione: the synthetic water-soluble form tends to have a greater degree of toxicity.
Figure 1: Chemical structures of vitamin K1 (phylloquinone, left structure) and vitamin K2 (menaquinones, right structure).
History
1929 A series of experiments by Dam results in the discovery of vitamin K.
1931 A clotting defect is observed by McFarlane and coworkers.
1935 Dam proposes that the antihaemorrhagic vitamin in chicks is a new fat-soluble vitamin, which he calls vitamin K.
1936 Dam and associates succeed in preparing a crude plasma prothrombin fraction, and demonstrate that its activity is decreased when it is obtained from vitamin K-deficient chick plasma.
1939 Vitamin K1 is synthesised by Doisy and associates.
1940 Brikhous observes haemorrhagic conditions resulting from malabsorption syndromes or starvation, and finds that haemorrhagic disease of the newborn responds to vitamin K.
1943 Dam receives half of the Nobel prize for his discovery of vitamin K, the blood coagulation factor.
1943 Doisy receives half of the Nobel prize for his discovery of the chemical nature of vitamin K.
Absorption, transport, storage and excreation of vitamin k
It appears that up to 80% of dietary vitamin k as phylloquinine and menaquinone is taken up by cells that line the small intestine and is incorporated into chylomicrons. The process requires bile and pancreatic enzymes. The menaquinones synthesized by bacteria in the colon are absorbed, but the amount absorbed is likely provides only 10% of the vitamin k we need. Some vitamins k is stored in the liver and some is incorporated in the lipoproteins VLDL, LDL, and HDL for tranport throughtout the body. Mineral oil and other nonabsorbale lipids interfere with vitamin k absorption. Most vitamink excreation occurs via the bile with a small amount of excreation via the urine.
Functions
1. Vitamin K acts as a cofactor in the final synthesis of proteins with a modified amino acid residue.
This modified glutamic acid residue is found in bone proteins and can bind onto calcium ions to cause calcification.
2. It is also found in the blood and along ve

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. General Concepts
• Divided into two major groups: fat soluble and
water soluble (B series, C, Folic acid e.t.c)
• fat soluble: A, D, E, K
• most of the 15 shown as essential for man
• requirements vary with species, size, growth rate,
environment (temperature, presence of toxins,
etc.) and metabolic function (growth, stress
response, disease resistance)
7. Vitamin A
• Vitamin A is a thermally stable in oxygen-free
environment and can withstand the heat of
60, 100 do 120°C. But, at the air at higher
temperatures (about 60°C) it decomposes
rapidly, especially under acidic conditions.
Sunlight also promotes vitamin A
decomposition.
9. Characteristics
• The compounds are polyenes. -
polyunsaturated organic compounds that
contain alternating double and single bonds.
• Vitamin A functions include the visual process,
immune function, gene transcription, and skin
health.
• Retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid are members
of the Vitamin A group. Provitamin A
carotenoids are also members of this group. β-
carotene, the orange pigment found in carrots
10. .• β-carotene is responsible for the orange
colouration of many different fruits and
vegetables. E.g. mangoes, carrots, cantaloupes,
apricots
• β-carotene is generally absorbed by passive
diffusion in the body. The compound is cleaved
symmetrically at a central carbon-carbon double
bond. This reaction requires molecular oxygen
and is catalysed by the enzyme β-carotene 15,15
β-monooxygenase to give two retinal molecules.
• Retinoids is the term used to describe a class of
compounds that are related to Vitamin A.
12. .• Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) andergocalciferol (Vitamin D2)
• Vitamin D is colloquially referred to as the ‘sunshine
vitamin’.
• Humans are also able to biosynthesise cholecalciferol
through the photolysis of 7-dehydrocholesterol by UV light
in the skin.
• Cholecalciferol is hydroxylated in the liver to form calcidiol
and then in the kidneys, to calcitriol. As the name suggests,
calcitriol has three hydroxyl groups.
• Calcitriol is the hormonally active form of the vitamin.
• This compound interacts with the vitamin D receptor (VDR)
which is a nuclear receptor.
• This ligand-receptor complex acts as a transcription factor.
Calcitriol is involved in the regulation of the levels of Ca2+
and PO3- ions in the bloodstream.
• This hormone also induces the synthesis of proteins that
are involved in calcification and bone remodelling.
13. .
• Sources: Fish liver oil, cow's milk, butter, egg yolk
• Hypovitaminosis D is a deficiency of vitamin D
often resulting from low vitamin D in the diet
inadequate exposure to sunlight, impaired ability
to absorb vitamin D because of a certain disorder,
or combinations thereof. Vitamin D deficiency
results in poor mineralisation of the bone and as
a consequence, bone-softening diseases such as
osteomalacia in adults and rickets in children.
• Both cholecalciferol and ergocalciferol are used to
treat known or suspected vitamin D deficiency. In
some cases, calcitriol is used instead.
• Interestingly, hypervitaminosis D does not appear
to arise from excessive exposure to sunlight.
15. .
• The Vitamin E group consists of eight vitamers. These
are the α-, β-, γ-, and δ- tocopherols and tocotrienols.
• Germ oils of cereals are good sources of the vitamin.
• These fat-soluble compounds serve primarily as
antioxidants. Due to their ability to dissolve in fats,
they are often incorporated into cell membranes.
• These compounds serve as scavengers of reactive
oxygen species which protect cell membranes from
oxidative damage.
• α-tocopherol protects cellular lipids by reacting with
radicals, forming α-tocoquinone.
• Deficiencies are also known thought to lead to
neurological dysfunction.
16. Vitamin K: menadione
• Phylloquinone (Vitamin K1) and menaquinones
(vitamin K2) are natural Vitamin K vitamers.
• Vitamin K is involved in the post-translational
modifications of proteins involved in blood
coagulation.
• The post-translational modifications of these proteins
allow the binding of calcium ions.
• Vitamin K deficiencies cause bleeding problems.
Vegetables such as kale, broccoli, and spinach are good
sources of Vitamin K1. Intestinal flora, particularly
gram-positive bacteria are known sources of vitamin K.
19. Niacin
• Function: transport of hydrogen ions as NADP,
NADPH; electron transport, fatty acid, cholestrol
synthesis
• forms: niacin, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide
• sources: rice polishings, yeast, rice bran

skin lesions (fish), sunburning (fish)
• Can fish convert tryptophan to niacin?
• requirements: 14-28 mg/kg (carp, catfish)
• requirements: 400 mg/kg (shrimp)
20. Folic Acid
• Recently shown as very important for
pregnant females to avoid birth defects

nucleic acids
• sources: yeast, alfalfa meal, full-fat
soybeans
• deficiencies: anemia, large erythrocytes,
pale gills (fish)

22. Ascorbic Acid: C
• Both finfish/shellfish very sensitive to this
vitamin, especially as juveniles
• function: antioxidant, stress reducer, bone
calcification, iron metab, tyrosine metab, blood
clotting
• deficiency: scoliosis (lateral), lordosis (vertical),
fin erosion, black death (shrimp)
• toxicity: toxic at over 150-200 mg/kg (shrimp)
• sources: synthesized from glucose, usually added
as chemical form
• requirement: 100 mg/kg varies w/age,
metabolism
