Whitehead  aNew Techniques in Nutritional Research contains the proceedings of the Ninth Annual Bristol-Myers Squibb/Mead Johnson Symposium on Nutrition Research held on September 11-13, 1989 in Cambridge, England. The papers highlight a number of novel techniques that are currently used in nutritional research, including the doubly labeled water method; the labeled bicarbonate method; X-ray computed tomography; neutron activation analysis; magnetic resonance imaging; and the application of stable isotope tracers. Divided into four sections encompassing 20 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of stable isotopes and their applications in nutrition science, including vitamin research, and in the investigation of mineral metabolism. It then discusses modern approaches for measuring energy expenditure and body composition, classical and modern methods of anthropometry, measurement of bone mineral content in vivo, and imaging techniques in the analysis of bone status. Nutritional scientists will find this book a useful source of information related to the field. -- Provided by Publisher.  aHND - Department of Human Nutrition and Dietetics (HND)  aIn English. 0aNutritionxResearch.9134833 0aNutritional assessment.9134834 0aNutritionxMethodology.91348351 aWhitehead, Roger G.,eeditor.91348311 aPrentice, Ann9134837  aBristol-Myers Squibb/Mead Johnson Symposium on Nutrition Researchc(9th Volume :  Robinson College)d1989 :9134908  2ddccBK  c617669d617669  00102ddc407-2aNSHSbNSHScGENd2026-06-10eGolden Booksg25255.30o612.3 NEWpNSHS-2230r2026-06-10tv.9v50510.60w2026-06-10yBK
