Various formulations of petroleum fractions in the light lubricating oil range provide efficient general insecticides for control of insect pests of citrus and have been used for this purpose for many years. The relatively low cost and high insecticidal efficiency of these materials make it probable that their widespread use in citrus culture will continue for some time. Many types of injury to...

The drying behavior of green peas is investigated in a pilot scaled Fluidized Bed Dryer (FBD) with inert particles assisted by an Infra Red (IR) heat source. The variation of shrinkage and moisture diffusivity with temperature and moisture content were investigated. The experimental drying curves were adjusted to the diffusion model of Fick’s law for spherical particles. The result was that...

in this research, a mixture of mpc, wpc, smp, soy milk, margarine, butter and water was used for production of uf-feta cheese analogue.variables were mpc (8%, 9%, 10%), wpc (0%, 1.5%, 3%), soy milk (5%, 10%, 15%) and margarine (0%, 5%, 10%). chemical (total solids, protein, acidity) and sensory (color and appearance, aroma, texture, flavor, total acceptance) properties of samples were analyzed ...
