Fillet portions of freshly landed Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, were either directly stored in ice or frozen for a briefperiod, thawed, and then stored in ice to determine and compare subsequent shelf lives so a retailer handling both products could be cognizant of the comparative per­ ishability of both product treatments. The frozen-thawed portions were found to have as long or a slightly longe...

Speed and size are two important factors while designing the electronic system. It’s Speed of operation and flexibility to modify, measures the performance of the system operation. Microprocessor/microcontroller (MPMC) system can handle sequential operations with high flexibility and use of Complex Programmable Devices (CPLD) can handle concurrent operations with high speed in small size area. ...

The aim of this study was to estimate the shelf life of butter and cheese products, with shelf life being a guide used to determine the storage period of food before deterioration. Butter and cheese samples stored at 10℃ and 15℃ had a shelf life of 221 d, while those stored at 25℃ and 35℃ had a shelf life of 109 d. Quality changes, including total cell count, coliform counts, Listeria monocytog...

We have developed an efficient and simple method for extracting and purifying genomic DNA from dried blood stored on filter paper. The quality of the genomic DNA extracted is tested by PCR amplification of a 255-bp fragment of the PAX8 gene sequence and the PCR products are determined for further genetic studies by single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. Larger DNA sequences of...
