This study aimed to investigate the biochemical compounds of five different apple cultivars (Amasya, Braeburn, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, and Starking) grown in same location reveal differences between peel pulp fresh, oven-dried, sun-dried samples. Sugar organic acid contents were analyzed through high-performance liquid chromatography. Besides, antioxidant activity, total flavonoid, phen...

Density and absorption of aggregate are important to secure the quality calculate mix proportion concrete. In this report, history test methods for them was investigated various terms relating density in ASTM Japan were set order. addition, standards it became clear that kind changed from oven-dry saturated surface-dry density, again density.

Recycled asphalts were evaluated based on SHRP binder specification. DSR (Dynamic Shear Rheometer) and BBR (Bending Beam Rheometer) tests were carried out on samples of the recycled asphalts under three conditions: original binder, RTFOT (Rolling Thin Film Oven Test) residue and RTFOT+PAV (Pressurized Aging Vessel) residue. PG (Performance-Graded) classification was conducted. New straight asph...

Abstract Ovens sold in the market have many features that make them easier to use but are not suitable for needs of Small and Micro Enterprises (SME), namely large capacity, multifunction, gas fuel, energy-saving, ease operate. It is necessary design manufacture an oven according SME users. The purpose this study design, build, assess feasibility, evaluate operating energy usage oven. process u...

Micropropagation of banana (Musa paradisiaca Linn.) var Grand naine was carried out with media sterilized by microwave radiation. Microwave oven was effectively used to sterilize the media for in vitro shoot-multiplication of banana against autoclave. Sterilization of media in microwave oven was successfully achieved at 900W/200 ml media (4 min). In vitro shoot-multiplication was higher in the ...

The effects of different treatment methods on the stability and antioxidant capacity of the bioactive phenolic compounds of litchi pericarps were investigated. Fresh litchi pericarps were open air-dried, steam-blanched for 3 min in combination with hot air oven drying at 60 and 80 °C, and unblanched pericarps were dried in a hot air oven at 40, 60, 70 and 80 °C until equilibrium weight was reac...
