Fishes in the family Salmonidae (trout and salmon) are in high demand, with the interest in salmon being greatest in developed nations. Salmon, mostiy Atiantic salmon, are produced in Canada, Chile, Norway, New Zealand, Scotiand, and the United States. Fishes in the family Cichhdae which includes several cultured species of tilapia, are reared primarily in the tropics, but have been widely introduced throughout both the developed and developing world.

Every developed nation has experienced product tampering incidents. The principal difference between domestic and foreign incidents is the motive of the tamperers. In the United States, typically random tampering without prior threat occurs whereas outside the United States, extortion prior to injury occurs, with money appearing to be the primary motive. Most developed nations are either implementing or modifying their rules on the use of tamper-evident packaging. Some features as they are used in the United States would have to be modified or the use of a secondary feature required to meet the standards of various other countries. 

Competent testing laboratories which can provide tests according to the ASTM D1469, ISTA, DOT, UN, and other protocols are located strategically throughout the United States and in most of the developed nations. The yellow pages of the telephone direc tory are useful to find such laboratories. 

The way in which materials are used in a developed nation is fairly standard. All consume steel, concrete and wood in construction steel and aluminium in general engineering copper in electrical conductors polymers in appliances, and so forth and roughly in the same proportions. Among metals, steel is used in the greatest quantities by far 90% of all the metal produced in the world is steel. But the non-metals wood and concrete beat steel - they are used in even greater volume. 

Prior to the publication of ISO 9000, several nations had developed national quality system standards, with many used only in the procurement of military equipment. With the emergence of the NATO Quality Control System standards in 1973, the Quality Panel of the UK Society of Motor Manufacturers set out to develop an equivalent standard for non-military applications. The result was BS 4891, which was published in 1972. In 1974 this was followed by BS 5179 with the title Operation and Evaluation of Quality Assurance Systems. However, BS 5179 was intended only as a guide and it was not until 1979, with the publication of BS 5750, that major purchasers in the UK had a standard that could be invoked in contracts. A certification scheme was eventually established in 1983, following the UK government s white paper on competitiveness ... 

Some of the fatty acids found in the diets of developed nations (often 1 to 10 g of daily fatty acid intake) are trans fatty acids— fatty acids with one or more double bonds in the trans configuration. Some of these derive from dairy fat and ruminant meats, but the bulk are provided by partially hydrogenated vegetable or fish...

Genomic and molecular tools have made great impacts on plant biotechnology and offer potential for manipulation of carotenoids as natural colorants and also for applications in human and animal health. While microbial and other non-plant systems have been successfully used, plant modification eliminates need for expensive bioreactors and offers economically feasible opportunities for less developed nations for production of nutraceuticals and other chemical products.

The selection of blood pressure cuff size based on a patient s arm circumference is crucial for the accurate measurement of blood pressure. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure tend to increase when the cuff size is too small relative to the patient s arm circumference. This circumstance is important due to the increasing prevalence of obesity in developed nations. Currently, the guidelines of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) Blood Pressure Measurement in Humans recommends cuff sizes for small, standard, and large adults with an optimal 2 1 ratio of cuff length/width based on arm circumference.18... 

O Tuberculosis (TB) is the most prevalent communicable infectious disease on earth and remains out of control in many developing nations. These nations require medical and financial assistance from developed nations in order to control the spread of tuberculosis globally.
