regarding many disadvantages of traditional method to produce concentrated yoghurt, several attempts have been done for mechanization of process in industrial scale. using membrane systems especially ultra filtration is one of these methods. in this survey, method to produce direct concentrated yoghurt, fresh milk was concentrated to 19% snf by ultra filtration method then diluted to 13 and 16 ...

the effect of hot water treatments [45°c for five minutes, 55°c for 25 seconds and non-treated(control)], salicylic acid in three levels (0, 1 and 2 mm) and calcium chloride in two levels (2% and 4%) on quantitative and qualitative parameters and storage life of pomegranate cv. meykhosh were investigated. experiment was conducted as a factorial based on completely randomized design with three r...

Rotational isomeric state theory has been used to calculate mean-square unperturbed dimensions (r2>0 and dipole moments (/~> of ethylene-vinyl chloride copolymers as a function of chemical composition, chemical sequence distribution, and stereochemical composition of the vinyl chloride sequences. As was previously found for several other copolymeric chains, (/z2> is much more sensitive to chemi...

Recently, it was demonstrated that liver injury and TNF-alpha production as a result of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) were attenuated by feeding animals a diet enriched with glycine. This phenomenon was shown to be a result of, at least in part, activation of a chloride channel in Kupffer cells by glycine, which hyperpolarizes the cell membrane and blunts increases in intracellular calciu...

Peach is a highly corrosive fruit with a short shelf life (less than 7 days at room temperature)susceptible to diseases, pathogens and physical damage. The storage or marketable life ofhorticultural crops can be extended by various treatments applied to them after and/or beforeharvesting. Fruits are usually treated with a range of materials [(e.g. salicylic acid (SA)] to...

A good design of the ice rink floor could save a great deal capital and operational costs for hockey arenas. This focuses on cost-effective tube arrangement an optimal concrete coverage over tubes that provide sufficient heat transfer rate between coolant freezing ice. paper reports theoretical model to simulate characteristic different diameter, spacing distance, thickness rink. In addition, c...

Ethylene is an important plant hormone that regulates developmental processes in plants. The ethylene biosynthesis pathway is a highly regulated process at both the transcriptional and post-translational level. The transcriptional regulation of these ethylene biosynthesis genes is well known. However, post-translational modifications of the key ethylene biosynthesis enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1...

this investigation aimed to examine the protective function of vitamin e on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) treated with cadmium chloride. rat bone marrow mscs were extracted using flashing-out and cultured in dmem containing 10% fbs and 100 u/ml pen/strep. at the end of the third passage, cells were divided into 4 groups including control, cadmium chloride, cadmium chloride + vit...

We report the simple preparation of ultra-thin self-assembled nanoperforated titanium calcium oxide films and their use as reactive nanomasks for selective dry etching of silicon. This novel reactive nanomask is composed of TiO(2) in which up to 50% of Ti was replaced by Ca (Ca(x)Ti(1-x)O(2-x)). The system was prepared by evaporation induced self-assembly of dip-coated solution of CaCl(2), TiCl...
