in this study, the effect of edible coat (carboxy methyl cellulose) before osmotic dehydration anddifferent drying methods on sensory and physical properties of dried apple (v. golden delicious)rings was investigated. the coated and non-coated samples pretreated with 50% sucrose osmoticsolution and dried in freeze drier (-40 to -50°c, 0.026-0.017 mbar, 24 hr), vacuum drier (70°c, 200mbar, 8-10 ...

Introduction The morphologic features of human sperms are key indicators for monitoring fertility problems in men. Therefore, automated analyzing methods via microscopic videos have become the most favorite policy in infertility treatment during the last decades. Materials and Methods In the proposed method, firstly a hypothesis testing framework was defined to distinguish sperms from backgroun...

in this study, some seed physical properties of two sugar beet varieties, shirin and gadouk (436), were evaluated as a function of moisture content. physical properties included length, width, thickness, arithmetic and geometric mean diameters, sphericity, thousand seed weight, angle of repose, terminal velocity, true density, bulk density, porosity, and coefficient of friction. four moisture c...

Roasting is among the most common methods of nut processing causing physical and chemical changes and ultimately increasing overall acceptance of the product. In this research, the effects of temperature (90, 120 ,and 150°C), time (20, 35 ,and 50 min) ,and roasting air velocity (0.5, 1.5 ,and 2.5 m/s) on gravimetrical properties of pistachio nuts and kernels including unit mass, true density, o...
