Equilibrium moisture content (EMC)/equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) studies pertaining to rice and rice products were reviewed. Methods of determining rice and rice component EMC/ERH data varied, using procedures involving static and dynamic equilibration methods, as well as direct gravimetric methods and indirect ERH‐measurement methods. Methods for measuring rice and rice component moistur...

Based on a bibliographic review, the article identifies and offers a critical analysis of scientific production by the public health field in Brazil on genetically modified organisms and food (in)security. Of the 716 articles found on the portals of the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and the Coordinating Agency for the Development of Higher Education (Capes), only 8 address the f...

The structure of bacteriorhodopsin based on electron microscopy (EM) studies, as provided in Henderson et al. (1990), is refined using molecular dynamics simulations. The work is based on a previously refined and simulated structure which had added the interhelical loops to the EM model of bR. The present study applies an all-atom description to this structure and constraints to the original He...
