The effect of aqueous solutions of ascorbic acid (AA) on the rancidity development in Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fillets during frozen storage was studied. Cobia fillets were treated with ascorbic acid (AA 0.25% and AA 0.5%) then stored at -18°C up to 6 months. Rancidity development was measured by several biochemical indices including free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (PV), an...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of adding sulfuric acid to sugarcane topssilage on rumen bacteria and whole rumen microorganisms (WRM) and compare the digestibility of sugarcane tops treated with different amount of urea, molasses and sulfuric acid between Holstein cow and Khouzestan buffalo. Regardless of the type of the treatment, potential of gas production (B) by cow WRM (...

Background Patients can form antibodies to foreign human leukocyte antigen (HLA) Class I antigens after exposure allogeneic cells. These anti-HLA class bind transfused platelets (PLTs) and mediate their destruction, thus leading PLT refractoriness. with refractoriness need HLA-matched PLTs, which require expensive HLA typing of donors, antibody analyses patient sera and/or crossmatching. An alt...

Nanosilver of nanometer-sized silver (Ag+) particles (2-5 nm diam) are used in various applications as an anti-microbial. Boric acid (H3BO3) is water soluble (pH=7). Boric acid is ethylene synthese inhibitor and reduce ethylene production through reducing the ACC synthase and ACC oxidase delays senescence of flower. In this study of different concentrations of boric acid and nano-silver was eva...

a solid state fermentation method was developed for the production of citric acid from date pulp (obtained of date syrup production from the process) by aspergillus niger ptcc 5010. poor yield was obtained when potassium ferrocyanide treated date pulp were used as substrate, but methanol at a 3-4% concentration markedly increased the forma-tion of citric acid from the waste. the optimum range o...

to improve the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid, we reported the fabrication of ordered tio2 nanotube arrays by a simple and effective two-step anodization method and then these tio2 nanotubes treated in a methanol solution under uv light irradiation. the tio2 nanotubes prepared in the two-step anodization process showed better photo-catalytic activity than tio2 nanotubes prepared ...
