In the light of high capital expenditure for manufacturing facilites in food and process industry, an increasing number of variants and frequentliy changing sales developments, simulation models are becoming more and more important for the support of capacity and production planning. In the following, the use of a simulation toolset for the support of tactical capacity planning and operative pr...

Background: Currently, frozen embryo transfers contribute an increasing rate of births from assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, very few studies evaluated the neonatal outcomes from frozen embryo transfer. This study aimed to investigate and compare the neonatal outcomes from frozen embryo transfer versus fresh embryo transfers. Materials and Method...

Background and Objectives: Thyroid gland because of its superficial location is amenable to direct physical examination. Clinical assessment of thyroid lesions by means of physical examination, thyroid scans and ultrasonography is not completely reliable. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is the most cost-effective, safe and an initial diagnostic test in the pre-operative evaluation of thy...

Production of high quality embryos in vitro needs an efficient in vitro fertilization (IVF). Seminal origin is one of the important factors that affects the success of in vitro embryo production. So our goal was to determine the effect of using fresh and frozen semen in fertilization on developmental competence and cryo-survival of buffalo embryos. Buffalo oocytes wer...

The leaves of Arum conophalloides (Araceae) were used in some west areas of Iran as a dessert. The aerial parts of the herb were collected from Sahneh Mountains, Kermanshah Province, west of Iran and was hydrodistilled by Clevenger-type apparatus. Composition of the essential oil was determined by GC and GC/MS. Totally, 18 components (92% of total essential oil) were identified. The oil contain...

The air fluorescence detectors (FDs) of the Telescope Array (TA) experiment have been constructed in a dessert of Utah, USA. We can measure the longitudinal developments of EASs directly with the FDs by detecting air fluorescence lights and determine the primary energies of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. In order for accurate observation and measurements of EASs, elaborate detector calibrations...

Background: Food waste occurs in all stages of the food supply chain, namely service sector. Understanding how much and why is wasted whether consumers are aware it essential to design effective interventions this setting. This case study aims compare perception by measure plate a Portuguese workplace canteen order recognize if trained can estimate his/her waste. Methods: Data were collected fr...

background: we performed this study to evaluate use of fresh and frozen sperm samples in non-obstructive azoospermia microdissection testicular sperm extraction (micro-tese-icsi) treatment. methods: we performed a total of 82 consecutive in vitro fertilization (ivf) cycles at fertijin ivf center in istanbul, turkey from january 2010 to march 2012. in 43 participants we used fresh sperm and froz...

Aims: Mellorine is a type of frozen dessert such as ice cream in which part or all the milk fat replaced with vegetable low-fat content. The purpose this study was to determine effect adding alginate, agar, guar gum, carrageenan, gelatin and casein an emulsifier mellorine
 Study Design: This research prepared using completely randomized design method several factors, namely addition gelati...
