in our study, bioactivity of essential oil extracted from ginger (zingiber officinaleroscoe.) that belongs to family zingiberaceae was analyzed. ginger rhizome oil was found to be effective against a range of bio-deteriogens. the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) value was determined by poisoned food technique and volatile activity assay. the study demonstrates that essential oil had a wid...

background:confirmation of olive oil authenticity and particularly virgin olive oil has a great importance. several advanced chemical and genetic analyses have been used to monitor especial components; however each has its limitations especially when detecting hazelnut-adulterated olive oil. objectives:the objective of this research is to assess the presence of trace amount of hazelnut oil in o...

results glandular trichomes composed of capitates and peltate trichomes. the essential oil composition differs. viridiflora and neryl acetate were not identified in yellow glandular trichomes. conclusions it seems that there is no relation between anatomical characteristics of the plant leaves and its essential oil composition. background perovskia abrotanoides karel. is a medicinal plant used ...

Oil pipeline leakages often bring catastrophic impacts on rivers along the pipeline, drinking water sources, and farm land irrigation etc. Based on the distinct spatial-temporal attributes in the analysis of oil spill, diffusion and consequences thereof, we present the theoretical concept and reasoning for leakage accidents spatial analysis through combining GIS and accident aftermath model. Sp...

BACKGROUND Originating from Africa, India, and the Middle East, frankincense oil has been important both socially and economically as an ingredient in incense and perfumes for thousands of years. Frankincense oil is prepared from aromatic hardened gum resins obtained by tapping Boswellia trees. One of the main components of frankincense oil is boswellic acid, a component known to have anti-neop...

Researchers in China have tended not to distinguish between conventional and unconventional oil, leading to inaccuracies in their estimates of future oil production. The purpose of this paper is to make an accurate estimate of the pattern of China’s future oil production, by properly distinguishing between these oil types. We make our analysis by treating conventional oil as a single category, ...

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality properties of emulsion-type pork sausages when pork fat is replaced with vegetable oil mixtures during processing. Pork sausages were processed under six treatment conditions: T1 (20% pork fat), T2 (10% pork fat + 2% grape seed oil + 4% olive oil + 4% canola oil), T3 (4% grape seed oil + 16% canola oil), T4 (4% grape seed oil + 4% olive oil + 12%...

Peak oil” refers to the future decline in world production of crude oil and to the accompanying potentially calamitous effects. The peak oil literature typically rejects economic analysis. This chapter, following Holland (2008), argues that economic analysis is indeed appropriate for analyzing oil scarcity since standard economic models can replicate the observed peaks in oil production. Moreov...
