foaming conditions of the red beet (beta vulgaris l) puree were optimized using response surface methodology (rsm) with respect to arabic gum concentrations (0.01 – 0.4% w/w), red beet puree (40 _ 60% w/w),egg white concentration( 5 _ 15% w/w) and whipping time (3 – 9 min) for minimum foam density and foam drainage volume as response variables. foams were prepared from various pulp concentratio...

the direct conversion of methane to c2 hydrocarbons, in a quartz tube reactor enforced by a dc corona discharge, was investigated at atmospheric pressure. the process was carried out in the presence of metal oxide catalysts of mn/w/sio2, mn/w/sio2 (tetraethyl orthosilicate, teos), and mn/w/cnt (supported on carbon nanotubes). the total yield to c2 hydrocarbons in the presence of metal oxide cat...

b ac k gr o und: w o lbachia pipientis is maternally inherited endoparasitic bacterium belonging to the α-proteobacteria, infecting 20–75% of all insect species including sand flies. the wolbachia surface protein ( wsp ) was employed as an appropriate marker for strain typing. the objective of our research was to find the possibility of detection of w. p ipientis in phlebotomus perfiliewi trans...

CoTiO3-clay nano-composites were synthesized via a conventional sol-gel method; the gel was calcinated at 500 - 800°C for 2 hours. The presence of rhombohedra phase of CoTiO3 in clay matrix was confirmed by XRD, FTIR, SEM. Cobalt titanate-clay nano-composites were prepared with 5-20%(w/w) by sol-gel method. The spectra results were investigated at 20% (w/w) concentration .The optimum condition ...

The microenvironment hosting a tumor actively participates in regulating tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Among the extracellular matrix proteins enriched in the stroma of carcinomas are the tenascin family members tenascin-C and tenascin-W. Whereas tenascin-C overexpression in gliomas is known to correlate with poor prognosis, the status of tenascin-W in brain tumors has not ...

today special attention has been paid to the microbial quality of medicinal plants.one of the operations in order to maintain the quality of plants is drying which may also affect the quantity and quality of the essential oil. in order to evaluate drying process effect in peppermint,the experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with 4 treatments and 3 replications. the treatm...
