in this research the effect of conventional and ohmic pasteurization and storage time at different temperatures on some bioactive components of aloe vera gel juice was investigated. aloe vera gel juice was pasteurized conventionally and ohmically at 90 ºc for 1 min. the effect of pasteurization on vitamin c, total phenolic content  and juice color was evaluated. the samples pasteurized conventi...

the structure and the electronic properties of single-walled zigzag bn and b3c2n3 nanotubes (n, 0; n=4–10) were investigated using first-principles calculations based on a density functional theory. a plane–wave basis set with periodic boundary conditions in conjunction with vanderbilt ultrasoft pseudo-potential was employed. the energy gap of zb3c2n3nts was calculated and compared with the cor...

If the electronic structure of a given material is known, then many physical and chemical properties can be accurately determined without resorting to experiment. However, determining the electronic structure of a realistic material is a difficult numerical problem. The chief obstacle faced by computational materials and computer scientists is obtaining a highly accurate solution to a complex e...

Pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquids with anions of the per(fluoroalkylsulfonyl)imide family are particularly interesting for their use as electrolytes in lithium batteries. These ions have several geometric isomers and the presence of different ion conformers and their distribution affects the ILs (Ionic liquids) physical and chemical properties. In the present work, we report the temperature dep...

left atrial (la) distension has been demonstrated to be linked with aortic stiffness in different patient populations. three-dimensional (3d) speckle-tracking echocardiography (ste) seems to be a promising tool for volumetric and functional evaluation of the la. the aim of the present study was to determine whether correlations exist between 3dste-derived la volume-based and strain parameter...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of alkaline and NaCl on functional properties of protein isolated from Lanternfish (Benthosema pterotum). In this study, extraction of fish protein was performed at different concentrations of NaCl (0.5%, 1.5%, 3% and 4.5%) at pHs 10 and 12. The results showed alkaline treatment improved the functional properties and the recovery yield of protein...

soy flour is the least processed form of soy protein products which has become increasingly popular in food technology for its nutritional benefits, low cost and good functional properties. the aim of this study was to investigate functional properties of soy flours produced by four different industrial processes: defatted, defatted and toasted, low fat, and full fat soy flours. because of diff...

in order to study some theories about nonsuperconductivity of prba2cu3o7, based on the density functional theory and with apw+lo/lapw method some calculations for prba2cu3o7 (pr123) and yba2cu3o7 (y123) were performed. the lsda+u approximation was used for pr(4f) orbitals and the effect of changing upr on the band structure, pr(4f)-dos, distribution of electrons on the planes and chains, and pr...
