The industrialized application of a technique of scale control by ultrasound was investigated in this paper. The results indicated that not only the viscosity of sugar solution was reduced, but also the heat transfer coefficient and evaporation intensity of the evaporation system were improved by 42.4% and 15.2% respectively, and the scale was removed remarkably with no significant effects on w...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between added sugar and dietary diversity, micronutrient intakes and anthropometric status in a nationally representative study of children, 1-8.9 years of age in South Africa. METHODS Secondary analysis of a national survey of children (weighted n = 2,200; non weighted n = 2818) was undertaken. Validated 24-hour recalls ...

experiments were conducted in 1998 and 1999 to study the effects of different levels of potassium and irrigation intervals on yield and water use efficiency of two genotypes of sugar beet (a37.1 and 12681) in khorasan agricultural research center (torogh, iran). potassium levels were; no potassium application, increasing potassium to 5% of soil cation exchange capacity (cec) and second treatmen...

In June 1999, a 29-year-old man came to the emergency department with right-sided flank pain, conjunctivitis, anorexia, fever, chills, increased thirst, and vomiting. He had lost 5 kg in weight, and was in acute renal failure. He was treated with steroids and discharged. In October, 1999, his 63-year-old father came to the emergency department with similar complaints. He was also in acute renal...

In a four-year experiment, five nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg N ha-1) were tested over irrigated sugar beets grown on clays, underMediterranean conditions, in centralGreece. There, sugar beets are commonly grown under water shortages, high temperatures and high soil Na concentrations. Contrary to previous reports, N rates did not affect significantly population density (as asse...

Background and Objectives: Recognizing the impurities of sugar beet and also comparing different methods of juice purification have shown that the chemical purification based on lime and carbon dioxide is really efficient and economic in the sugar industry. Factories have to control and improve purification stages to achieve clear juice with high chemical purity, low color, minimum hardness, su...

The aim of this research was to develop technique produce alcohol from Thai white rice (TWR) using Saccharomyces cerevisiae TISTR 5339. TWR sugar produced with Amylomyces rouxii 3182. Response surface methodology (RSM) applied for investigating the experimental design production alcohol. There were 20 experiments involving three investigated variables 5339 amount ratio, concentration (% Brix) a...

chocolate milk is a popular tasteful dairy product and sugar is one of the main participants inits formulation. massecuit iii is a type of brown sugar consisting of phenolic compounds and other componentsthat might exhibit antioxidant activity and could improve and affect the nutritional properties of the food. theaim of the present study is to replace some or all of the white sugar used in the...

This article investigates the effects of commercially available artificial (aspartame, saccharin, sucralose) and natural sweeteners (brown sugar, white sugar, molasses) on the immune system. Human whole blood cultures were incubated with various sweeteners and stimulated in vitro with either phytohemagglutinin or endotoxin. Harvested supernatants were screened for cytotoxicity and cytokine rele...
