Use of modified Richards model to predict isothermal and non-isothermal microbial growth.
Mathematical models are often used to predict microbial growth in food products. An important class of these models involves the adaptation of classical sigmoid functions, such as the Gompertz and logistic functions. This study aimed to validate the use of the modified Richards model in various situations, which have not previously been tested. The model was obtained through solving a system of...
متن کاملNon-isothermal model for nematic spherulite growth.
A computational study of the growth of two-dimensional nematic spherulites in an isotropic phase was performed using a Landau-de Gennes-type quadrupolar tensor order parameter model for the first-order isotropic/nematic transition of 5CB (pentylcyanobiphenyl). An energy balance, taking anisotropy into account, was derived and incorporated into the time-dependent model. Growth laws were determin...
متن کاملIsothermal and Non-isothermal Methods
a comparison was made between the experimental non-isothermal a vs. t curves and those calculated on the basis of a previous isothermal study. It was observed that for low heating rates, when the "thermal lag" is negligible, the dynamic measurements are in good agreement with the isothermal ones. Furthermore, for process (I), two mathematical methods proposed for the interpretation of the non-i...
متن کاملModel-Fitting Approach to Kinetic Analysis of Non-Isothermal Oxidation of Molybdenite
The kinetics of molybdenite oxidation was studied by non-isothermal TGA-DTA with heating rate 5 ºC.min-1.The model-fitting kinetic approach applied to TGA data .The Coats-Redfern method used for model fitting. The popular model-fitting gives excellent fit for non-isothermal data in chemically controlled regime. The apparent activation energy was determined to be about 34.2 kcalmo...
متن کاملBiomedical Use of Isothermal Microcalorimeters
Isothermal microcalorimetry is becoming widely used for monitoring biological activities in vitro. Microcalorimeters are now able to measure heat production rates of less than a microwatt. As a result, metabolism and growth of relatively small numbers of cultured bacteria, protozoans, human cells and even small animals can be monitored continuously and extremely accurately at any chosen tempera...
