various combustion characteristics and properties are studied while selecting a fuel for any engine. the choice of the engine and fuel are highly interrelated. vegetable oil is one obvious fuel particularly because their fuel properties are closer to diesel fuel. two important properties, the cetane number and the calorific value are similar to diesel. hence diesel engines can be operated on ve...

This paper reviews the effects of the addition of flaxseed gum on the physicochemical properties of whey protein-stabilized, oil-in-water emulsions at neutral and acidic pH as investigated by light scattering and rheology under dilute and concentrated conditions. At pH 7.0, measurements performed in the dilute system showed no changes in charge or size of the droplets however, in the concentrat...

although some alternative therapies like botanical and herbal therapies have shown promise for relieving menopause symptoms such as hot flashes, more research is needed. eighty-five percent of the women in the united states experience hot flashes of some kind as they approach menopause and for the first year or two after their periods stop. between 20 and 50% of women continue to have them for ...

Received Feb 7, 2017 Revised Apr 5, 2017 Accepted Apr 29, 2017 Trends in the field of nanomaterial-based transformer oil show most of the conducted works have focused only on the transformer oil-based nanofluids but limited studies on the stability of transformer oil-based nanofluids. Since mineral oil-based nanofluids still can produce the sedimentation, thus the cold-atmospheric pressure plas...

purpose: to evaluate the anatomical and functional outcomes of using heavy silicone oil as an internal tamponade for complicated cases of retinal detachment associated with proliferative vitreoretinopathy involving inferior retinal quadrants methods: 55 eyes from 55 patients with complicated retinal detachments enrolled in this interventional case series study. all eyes underwent standard three...

Flaxseed is a rich source of different types of phenolics such as lignans, phenolic acids, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids and tannins. To date, extensive investigations has been undertaken to demonstrate antioxidant potential of flaxseed phenolics. However, antioxidant potential of all the flaxseed phenolics has not been collectively discussed. Hence, the aim of this article is to highlight the v...
