oxidative stability of walnut (juglansregia l.) was evaluated over a period of 1 year storage in various conditions. the whole walnuts, walnut kernels, walnut chopped kernels, walnut kernels packaged in polyethylene (pet) under vacuum and poly propylene (pp) contain of co2 were kept in a normal condition (temperature, 19-30˚с and relative humidity (rh), 35-45%). the whole walnuts and walnut ker...

polyvinyl ester green composites were synthesized with walnut shell powder (wsp) by in-situ polymerization technique. the green composites have been evaluated for mechanical properties such as tensile strength, tensile modulus and hardness. sliding wear loss, specific wear rate and coefficient of friction were investigated by using computerized pin-on–disc machine at normal applied loads of 20,...

The presented article analyses structures of kinematic chains in industrial robots, i.e. their positioning and orientation mechanisms with respect to positioning of end effectors within the workspace of parallel kinematic machine and in its vicinity with the aim to facilitate a selection of appropriate industrial robot for automatic in – between operational manipulation in the periphery of such...

In this paper, a survey of recent progress made in machine vision systems is presented. T h e main focus of the paper is on industrial inspection problems. Several important contributions recently reported in automated visual inspection of integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, packaging, diskheads, metal surfaces, a n d other products are revisited.

A sensitive qualitative detection method for walnut (Juglans regia) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed. For detection of walnuts with high specificity, the primer pair WAL-F/WAL-R was designed based on walnut matK genes. Trace amounts of walnuts in commercial food products can be qualitatively detected using this method.

Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 1 strain 186 was isolated from a walnut tree expressing crown gall symptoms. The draft genome sequence of this strain harbored genes for crown gall formation and will be useful for understanding its virulence on Paradox, the predominant hybrid rootstock used for the cultivation of English walnut in California.

Research has shown that imagining food consumption leads to food-specific habituation effects. In the present research, we replicated these effects and further examined whether the depletion of self-regulatory resources would reduce the habituation effects of imagined food consumption. Since self-regulatory resources have been shown to reduce habituation effects during the perception of emotion...
