Bone tissue engineering has been increasingly studied as an alternative approach to bone defect reconstruction. In this approach, new bone cells are stimulated to grow and heal the defect with the aid of a scaffold that serves as a medium for bone cell formation and growth. Scaffolds made of metallic materials have preferably been chosen for bone tissue engineering applications where load-beari...

Cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of nanostructured hydroxyapatite (nanoHAp) are dependent on its physical parameters. Therefore, an understanding of both surface chemistry and morphology of nanoHAp is needed in order to be able to anticipate its in vivo behavior. The aim of this paper is to characterize an engineered nanoHAp in terms of physico-chemical properties, biocompatibility, and its cap...

effect of sucrose replacement with date syrup powder on physiochemical properties of sponge cake such as specific gravity, volume, apparent density, solid density, porosity, symmetry, moisture content, water activity, crust color and textural firmness was studied. batter specific gravity of the control sample was higher than that of other samples. sucrose replacement with 100% of date syrup pow...

In this research, we assessed the influence of an ultrafine 2CaO·SiO₂ powder on the hydration properties of a reactive powder concrete system. The ultrafine powder was manufactured through chemical combustion method. The morphology of ultrafine powder and the development of hydration products in the cement paste prepared with ultrafine powder were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (S...

The purpose of this research is to understand how the process parameters surrounding the Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) process affect the properties of the deposition. The powder used in this research is pre-alloyed titanium powder (Ti-6Al4V), containing 6% wt. aluminum and 4% wt. vanadium. The DMD process involves injecting metallic powder into a weld pool created by a high power industrial la...

This study was conducted to investigate the physical and sensory properties of ice cream containing fermented pepper powder. Three ice cream formulas were manufactured: 1, control; 2, supplemented with 0.1% fermented pepper powder; and 3, supplemented with 0.2% fermented pepper powder. Formulas 2 and 3 had significantly higher viscosity and lower overrun than formula 1 (p<0.05). Additionally, i...

In order to study the influence on the mechanical properties caused by microstructure evolution of metal powder in extreme environment, 3D real-time observation of the microstructure evolution of Al-Ti mixed powder in high temperature and microwave compound fields was realized by using synchrotron radiation computerized topography (SR-CT) technique; the spatial resolution was enhanced to 0.37  ...

the potential of quince powder was evaluated for the production of fiber rich sponge cakes. in this study, quinces slices were dried in an infrared–hot air dryer (375 w, 60°c and 1 m/s flow rate). the rheological properties of cake batters and physico-chemical, textural and sensory properties of the sponge cake supplemented with five different concentrations (control, 5, 10, 15 and 20 %) of qui...
