among the different classes of physical properties of foods, color is considered the most important visual attribute in quality perception. consumers tend to associate color with quality due to its good correlation with physical, chemical and sensorial evaluations of food quality. this study used an inexpensive method to predict sweet cherries color parameters by combining image processing and ...

Changes in soil physical and chemical properties were evaluated in several on-farm studies located in rainfed, hardsetting red Al®sols (Ferric Luvisols) and in irrigated, self-mulching Vertisols (Chromic Vertisols) of eastern Australia. The objective of the studies was to evaluate changes in soil physical and chemical properties with time under commercial farming situations where changes had be...

 Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the physical and chemical quality of groundwater in the villages of Qom province during summer 2014, and to compare the results with Iran’s Standard No. 1053. Methods: This research is a descriptive sectional study. During the investigation, one step sampling with the necessary repetitions (if necessary) was performed of each ...

the wide availability of data on air pollutant emissions, the knowledge already achieved on theset of chemical and photochemical reactions in the troposphere, the ability to access real time weatherconditions at the local scale that determine the transport and transformation of gases and aerosol, now make it possible to obtain credible and reliable predictions, retrospective analyses and/or fut...

Introduction: Unsustainable natural resources utilization is on the increase in the developing countries thus the ability of many local communities to meet their basic needs including food, water and shelter is jeopardized. Uncontrolled gold-mining in Sikasso region is one such an anthropogenic activity that is of great environmental concern to the local and national governments of Mali owing t...

the aim of this study was to compare mental health, quality of life and emotional intelligence in physical education teachers and non-physical education teachers in kermanshah. this study was carried out by a causal-comparative and field method. the statistical population of this study comprised all the teachers of kermanshah (972 physical education teachers and 2854 non-physical education teac...

assessing the quality of groundwater is important to ensure the sustainablesafe use of these resources. however, describing the overall water quality condition isdifficult due to the spatial variability of multiple contaminants and the wide range ofindicators (chemical, physical and biological) that could be measured. therefore, in thiscase study, some water quality parameters including na, mg,...
