Bioethanol is among the most promising of biofuels because it has an energy content similar to gasoline while generating lower pollutant emissions than gasoline. But, in order to be used as an automotive fuel mixed with gasoline, ethanol must have less than 0.5 wt % of water. To achieve required ethanol purity, in light of the fact that the ethanol water mixture forms an azeotrope, unconvention...

This paper presents our extractive summarization systems at the update summarization track of TAC 2008. We proposed two novel methods, one is based on the information distance theory, and the other is based on the sentence centrality which derives from the centrality concept in the graph theory. The evaluation results show that the two submitted runs are very competitive to generate extractive ...

This paper reports physicochemical studies in fungal infected galls of Pongamia pinnata. The parameters assayed were Total ash, acid insolubility and water solubility values and extractive values (Alcohol, water and petroleum ether). Fungal infected galls showed significantly higher value of ash, acid insolubility and low water solubility and high extractive values (petroleum ether and water) w...

High performance liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array detector (HPLC-DAD) has been reported to quantify isolated flavonoids or these compounds in complex biological matrices, such as Chinese herbal drugs and products from factories. This work was designed, therefore, to develop an HPLC-DAD system to separate quercetin, luteolin and apigenin and to quantify them in extractive solu...

Today, with rapid growth of the World Wide Web and creation of Internet sites and online text resources, text summarization issue is highly attended by various researchers. Extractive-based text summarization is an important summarization method which is included of selecting the top representative sentences from the input document. When, we are facing into large data volume documents, the extr...

Wound healing is the main problem in the therapy of anal fistula (AF). Daphne genkwa root has been traditionally used as an agent to soak sutures in operation of AF patients, but its function in wound healing remains largely unclear. The aim of the present study was to illuminate mechanisms of D. genkwa root treatment on AF. In the present study, 60 AF patients after surgery were randomly divid...

A reference extractive, containing multiple active known compounds, has been considered to be an alternative to individual reference standards. However, in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (ChP) the great majority of reference extractives have been primarily used for qualitative identification by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and few studies on the applicability of reference extractives for quantita...
