Background: The manufacturing of frozen shrimp is an important industry for the economy of Thailand. The objective of this study was to use Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to determine the freshness quality, including Total Volatile Basic Nitrogen (TVB-N) and Water Holding Capacity (WHC) of white shrimp (whole and chopped shrimp) and phosphate residues of shrimp. Methods: Sixty white shrimp ...

Sumac (Rhus coriaria L.), belonging to the Anacardiaceae family, grows in Mediterranean countries, North Africa, South Europe, Afghanistan and Iran. The sumac berries contain biological activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, hypoglycemic and antidiabetic. The present study examined the effects of water extract of sumac on the chemical, microbiological and sensory quality on silver carp ...

A new third-order Energy Stable Weighted Essentially NonOscillatory (ESWENO) finite difference scheme for scalar and vector linear hyperbolic equations with piecewise continuous initial conditions is developed. The new scheme is proven to be stable in the energy norm for both continuous and discontinuous solutions. In contrast to the existing highresolution shock-capturing schemes, no assumptio...

Palmitate, the enzymatic product of fatty acid synthase (FASN), provides a substrate for the synthesis of longand short-chain fatty acids. Many recent studies have expanded our knowledge about the roles palmitate and lipid synthesis play in tumor cell biology beyond supporting energy metabolism and membrane building [1,2]. The recent article by Ventura and colleagues [3] described cell biology ...

Now more than ever, it is becoming critical for businesses in the tourism industry to have a strong online presence. To achieve this goal, the proper usage of latest Web technologies, particularly schema.org annotations is crucial. In this paper, we present our e ort to improve the online visibility of Tourismusverband (TVB) Mayrhofen-Hippach and all touristic service providers in the Mayrhofen...

Quality and shelf-life of whole and filleted Coryphaena hippurus, stored with modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and natural antioxidants from halophytes (HAL), were investigated. Fillets were divided into control, simply sealed in trays; MAP, preserved by modified atmosphere (45% CO2, 50% N2, 5% O2); and MAP-HAL, pretreated with antioxidants and preserved by MAP. Whole and filleted fish were ...
