Statistical methods are usually applied in the processing of digital images for the analysis of the textures displayed by them. Aiming to evaluate the urbanization of a given location from satellite or aerial images, here we consider a simple processing to distinguish in them the “urban” from the “rural” texture. The method is based on the mean values and the standard deviations of the colour t...

An evaluation of the capacity of a lyophilized water extract of borage leaves to delay the lipid oxidation process in dry fermented sausages enriched with ω-3 PUFAs has been performed. 340 ppm of lyophilized extract showed an antioxidant capacity equivalent to 200 ppm of a butylhydroxyanisol (BHA) and butylhydroxytoluene (BHT) mixture. Two batches of dry fermented sausages enriched in ω-3 PUFA ...

Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant widely used in the treatment of epilepsy.An accurate and validated spectrophotometric method was developed as an alternative method to determine gabapentin in pharmaceutical products. This is a simple, accurate, precise, selective and visible spectrophotometric method. The method is based on the measurement of drug absorbance as a result of yellow solution format...

1 Part 340 regulates, among other things, the introduction of organisms and products altered or produced through genetic engineering that are plant pests or are believed to be plant pests. The introduction into the United States of such articles also may be subject to other regulations promulgated under the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701–7772) and found in 7 CFR parts 319, 330, and 360. Fo...

Aims: To describe the aetiology, demography, surgical management, and outcome of a cohort of paediatric ptosis patients in a large tertiary referral oculoplastic centre. Methods: A case note review of all patients undergoing ptosis surgery below the age of 16 years in a tertiary referral oculoplastic unit documenting the laterality, aetiology, severity of ptosis, indications for and type of sur...

A serious obstacle impeding the application of lowand hightemperature superconductor devices is the presence of trapped magnetic flux: flux lines or vortices can be induced by fields as small as the Earth’s magnetic field. Once present, vortices dissipate energy and generate internal noise, limiting the operation of numerous superconducting devices. Methods used to overcome this difficulty incl...

The steel industry, in accordance with the momentum of greener has welcomed changes and is actively pursuing that objective. One such activity commitment to energy recovery from by-products as slag since average content ferrous slags around 1 2 GJ/tslag. recovered could, then, be used heating or drying process among others. RecHeat was designed modelled iteratively achieve an optimised heat app...
