ABSTRACT SELECTION OF SWEET CASSAVA ELITE-CLONES FOR AGRONOMICAL,TECHNOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is one of the most important crops for human nutrition in thetropics, especially for low-income populations. This study aimed at to evaluate and select elite clones ofsweet cassava regarding to chemical, agronomic and technological aspects, twelve clones of InstitutoAgronomico breeding program were compared to control variety IAC 576-70 as to yield of roots, cooking,time, cyanogen compounds, total carotenoids, β -carotene, vitamin A and mineral components. Ten clonesshowed high yields. Average cooking time was high, 43.8 minutes. Among clones, only 66/99 showed ( 1 ) Recebido para publicacao em 2 de abril de 2007 e aceito em 18 de fevereiro de 2009.( 2 ) Mestre em Agricultura Tropical e Subtropical pelo Instituto Agronomico (IAC), Campinas (SP).E-mail:thiagomezette@yahoo.com.br; joaogalera@gmail.com( 3 ) Instituto Agronomico (IAC), 13012-970 Campinas (SP).

CONFLICT OF INTEREST: NONE DECLARED

CONFLICT OF INTEREST: NONE DECLARED PAPERAIM SUMMARY. The development of the digital Information Communication Technology (ICT) has definitely changed healthcare system in all its areas. The development of standardized electronic medical record (EMR) make possible other forms of E-Health like transmural care, telemedicine etc. In this paper was described Health Information System (HIS) of Tuzla Canton and Brčko DC (whose citizens gravitate toward Tuzla Clinical Center). Tuzla Clinical Center is the only Clinic for tertiary healthcare in this region. To estimate level and types of the HIS, telecommunications and information management we have designed questionnaire. Based on this research we have presented current state of E-Health in Canton and the most important problems in this area. Also, based on this research and our experiences, we have identified the main directions of the HIS development, its standardization and integration as the base for E-Heath in Bosnia.
