Even so, extensive research has been carried out on potential eco-toxic effects of particulate and extensively degraded oxo-biodegradable plastics when mixed with soil. Tests included seed germination and plant growth rates, compared with the same soil without degraded plastics [3,4], the effects on macro-organisms (worms, daphnia, etc.) in the soil [4] and on the accumulation of transition met...

Cereal Chem. 90(3):204–210 A new class of zein additives was investigated, thiocyanate salts. Ammonium, potassium, guanidine (GTC), and magnesium thiocyanate salts were added to solutions of zein in with various amounts of tri(ethylene glycol) (TEG), cast as films, and then tested to determine the impact that each salt had on properties. The presence of these salts affected solution rheology an...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of diets supplemented with anionic salts on bone metabolism of dairy goats and sheep. Twelve Saanen goats and 12 Ostfrisean milk sheep (fourth lactation) were divided into 2 groups each [sheep control (SC), goat control (GC); sheep anionic salts (SA), goat anionic salts (GA)]. Each group was fed a different diet in the last 10 d ...

The four ingredients of ORS (glucose, sodium chloride, potassium chloride and trisodium citrate) in the concentrations described in the document entitled “Oral Rehydration Salts: a new reduced osmolarity formulation” yield an effective solution for rehydration and for the prevention of dehydration. The addition of other ingredients, such as other minerals (especially zinc) or vitamins, has not ...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of emulsifiers such as lecithin and bile salts onbroilers performances fed diet containing vegetable fats. 192 male ross broiler chickens were randomlyallocated in a factorial experiment design of 3 × 2, consisting two sources of fat (four percent fatty acidsor soy bean oil) and three emulsifiers (none, one percent lecithin and 0.05 percent b...

The ability of bile salts to inhibit the precipitation of either calcium hydroxyapatite or its precursor, amorphous calcium phosphate, by reducing Ca2+ activity or poisoning nascent crystals was determined. When apatite precipitated rapidly (1-4 h), glycocholate and taurine-conjugated bile salts (up to 100 mM) had little effect on apatite formation, but prevented amorphous calcium phosphate pre...

Since there is no flue-gas desulfurization facility (FGD) in Australian Power Plants, the temperatures of flue gases from the plants range from 393–433 K which is much higher than the absorption temperatures in a typical post combustion CO2 capture (PCC) process. The additional cooling systems and equipments are required to cool flue gases. This adds to the cost, and water and energy consumptio...

Preparation of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) via microwave heating is becoming increasingly popular due to reduced reaction times and enhanced control of MOF particle size. However, there is little understanding about the detailed interaction of the electric field portion of the wave with reactants during the synthesis of MOFs. In order to overcome this lack of fundamental understanding, info...
