a specific polymerase chain reaction (pcr) method was applied for identification of bovine (bos taurus), ovine (ovis aries) and caprine (capra hircus) pure and binary mixtures of raw and heat-processed meats. these meats are used in food industry products and/or for direct consumption of consumers. the mitochondrial dna was amplified as a template in a pcr reaction by use of specific primers re...

kurdistan rasa grape is one of the delicious and sweet fruits with black color. it contains vitamins e, c and some protectors such as antioxidants. in order to design equipments and facilities for drying, preservation and processing of rasa grape, it is necessary and important to know about its specific heat and thermal conductivity. in this paper the specific heat and thermal conductivity of r...

Negative affective states influence pain processing in healthy subjects in terms of augmented pain experience. Furthermore, our previous studies revealed that patients with major depressive disorder showed increased heat pain thresholds on the skin. Potential neurofunctional correlates of this finding were located within the fronto-thalamic network. The aim of the present study was to investiga...

To determine that susceptibility of AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis PCR to inhibitory factors possibly present in cervical specimens, we obtained cervical specimens from 200 gynecology patients attending our outpatient clinic. The prevalence of C. trachomatis infection was 4.1%, as determined by cell culture. All AMPLICOR specimens were tested in one procedure as described by the manufacturer, a...

background: the second processing cycle for adding the artificial teeth to heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases may result in dimensional changes of the denture bases. the aim of thisstudy was to evaluate the dimensional changes of the heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases with one and two-cycle processing methods. materials and methods: a metal edentulous maxillary arch was used...

The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of enterotoxigenic and enteroaggregative strains ofEscherichia coli in chicken carcasses by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In this study 63 strains of E. coliwere isolated from 110 samples of chicken carcasses during processing after chilling in the poultry slaughterhouse of Shahrekord. Polymerase chain reaction assays were used to detect t...

the present study was carried out to investigate the replacement of soybean meal by different levels of canola meal (either with or without canola meal undergoing heat processing). two hundred forty commercial layer hens (lsl strain) at 54th week of age, selected based on the same egg production percentage and body weight. the experimental design was a crd, in a factorial arrangement of 4 repli...

Heat transfer coefficient in nucleate pool boiling near critical heat flux at least one orderhigher than the convectional heat transfer modes. In this paper, an experimental setup isdesigned and fabricated to investigate the mechanism of heat transfer from boiling surface tobulk liquid near critical heat flux. The images of pool boiling near the high heat flux regionreveals that the individual ...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of the population of fez and casablanca in morocco to dry white beans (phaseolus vulgaris) and to investigate the effect of food processing (heat and/or enzymatic hydrolysis by pepsin) on this sensitivity. work was based on a bank consisting of 146 sera from patients with atopic hypersensitivity in order to evaluate specific immunoglobulin e...
