wheat germ, a highly nutritive part of wheat kernels, is separated during milling as a by-product. in this study, wheat germ was used to supplement cakes. different levels of the germ (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) at different particles sizes (280, 585, 890 and 1,195 µm) were added to a cake recipe. the results showed that with increasing the germ level and particle size, batter consistency and densit...

abstractbackground : in order to quantify effects of ultrasound irradiation parameters under therapeutic condition, especially sonodynamic therapy, it is initially necessary to evaluate inertial cavitation activity in vitro conditions therefore, in this study, the effect of 1 mhz low level ultrasound based on °oh radicals generated by acoustic inertial cavitation in aqueous solution was monitor...

in standard discussions (capitalistic economy), business firms and the income distribution property of production factors are dealt with in a manner in which they are independent from each other. and there is no interaction as such between them. furthermore, no role whatsoever is assumed for externalities. if we accept that there is interaction between production factors, and these 1actors, bec...

We consider an assembly system with multiple stages, multiple items, and multiple customer classes. The system consists of m production facilities, each producing a different item. Items are produced in variable batch sizes, one batch at a time, with exponentially distributed batch production times. Demand from each class takes place continuously over time according to a compound Poisson proces...

agricultural mechanization is a method for transiting from traditional agriculture towards industrial and sustainable one. due to the limitation of natural resources and increasing population we need to have economical production of agricultural crops. for reaching this destination; agricultural mechanization has a remarkable role. so it is necessary to have an extensive view for mechanization,...

The necessity of decreasing the environmental impact of agricultural activities, while preserving the level of production to satisfy growing population demands requires investigation of new production tools. Mobile robots may constitute a promising solution, since autonomous devices may allow increasing production levels, while preserving the environment thanks to their high accuracy. In this p...

promotion of the dietary fiber of foods can enhance human health by reducing the risk of many serious diseases. cakes are among the highly consumed foods but sadly of low fiber content. therefore, increasing the fiber content in them is of great importance, and this was the aim followed in this study. wheat flour was partially replaced at 0, 10, 20 and 30% (w/w) with corn resistant starch (rs),...
