Fat has an important role in creating texture, color and viscosity; but, it might be a source of many diseases in human. Mayonnaise is one of the most widely used sauces that contains fat in its formulation. There is an increase demand in reduction of the amount of fat in the diet or use of unsaturated fat. In the present study, mayonnaise samples containing various amounts of sesame oil were p...

Natural hydraulic lime-based grouts are often used in the structural consolidation of old stone masonry walls, mainly to re-establish monolithic behaviour constructions. To ensure an adequate grouting operation, it is essential have good fresh and hardened grout properties. The motivation present study was examine properties natural lime with nano-silica (NS) silica fume (SF). contribution thes...

The Kashmiri population is an ethno-linguistic group that resides in the Kashmir Valley in northern India. A longstanding hypothesis is that this population derives ancestry from Jewish and/or Greek sources. There is historical and archaeological evidence of ancient Greek presence in India and Kashmir. Further, some historical accounts suggest ancient Hebrew ancestry as well. To date, it has no...

This paper puts forward a verification method for compound purposes and compound reasons to be used during purpose limitation. When it is absolutely necessary to collect privacy related information, it is essential that privacy enhancing technologies (PETs) protect access to data – in general accomplished by using the concept of purposes bound to data. Compound purposes and reasons are an enhan...

Ionic liquids present intriguing possibilities for removal of carbon dioxide from a wide variety of different gas mixtures, including post-combustion flue gas, pre-combustion gases, air, and raw natural gas streams. Even by physical absorption, many ILs provide sufficient selectivity over N2, O2, CH4 and other gases. However, when CO2 partial pressures are low, the incorporation of functional g...

For all processes in industry where liquids are intermediate or end products, there is a demand for online measurements of physical liquid properties, like density, viscosity and speed of sound. The continuous monitoring of those quantities is important for quality control and for enhancing productivity. In this paper layered resonant piezoelectric sensors for liquids are investigated and it is...

We analysed nine microsatellite markers for 626 individuals representing the geographic range of eight closely related endemic New Zealand species of Sophora. Structure analysis identified the optimal K value as seven, with samples identified as Sophorachathamica, Sophorafulvida, Sophoralongicarinata, and Sophoraprostrata retrieved as well-defined groups. The remaining samples formed less resol...

In the last few years, two paradigms underlying human evolution have crumbled. Modern humans have not totally replaced previous hominins without any admixture, and the expected signatures of adaptations to new environments are surprisingly lacking at the genomic level. Here we review current evidence about archaic admixture and lack of strong selective sweeps in humans. We underline the need to...

This document is a survey of Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) often employed to improve degraded TCP performance caused by characteristics of specific link environments, for example, in satellite, wireless WAN, and wireless LAN environments. Different types of Performance Enhancing Proxies are described as well as the mechanisms used to improve performance. Emphasis is put on proxies operat...
