interaction of menthol with polyethylene terephthalate bottles during storage time was tested at three different temperatures. menthol is a mint flavor agent added to yogurt drinks in iran and is considered as a factor affecting consumer acceptance. absorption of menthol to packaging material could cause a loss of quality in the final product due to diminished flavor intensity. tests were done ...

156. Cryopreservation of recombinant antihemophilic Factor VIII. Effect of biopolymers. Nelly M. Tsvetkova, Omkar Joshi, Arnaud Desponds, D.Q. Wang, Paul Wu, Bayer HealthCare LLC, Berkeley, CA, USA Recombinant Factor VIII, an essential coagulation factor in the blood, is one of the most complex proteins manufactured today. Currently the only therapy for hemophilia A is life-long administration ...

PURPOSE Platelet concentrates are important for support of patients with malignancies requiring myelotoxic chemotherapy. During storage, 10% to 15% of platelets may become activated resulting in the release of alpha-granules, which contain growth factors. We hypothesize that, during storage, growth factors accumulate in the plasma, specifically platelet-derived growth factor, vascular endotheli...

This study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation and application of Zn fertilizer on  seed storage proteins  in chickpea, Azad cultivar. Experiment was performed in an factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. In this experiment, two factor consist of irrigation in three levels (I1= non irrigation and I2= irrigation in...

A field experiment was performed in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation and application of K fertilizer on seed storage proteins  in chickpea, ILC-482 cultivar. Experiment was performed in factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. In this experiment, two factor consist of irrigation in three levels (I1= non irrigation and I2= irrigation in flowering stage...

The present study aimed at investigating the influence of several production factors, conservation conditions, and extraction procedures on the phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of blueberries from different cultivars. The experimental data was used to train artificial neural networks, using a feed-forward model, which gave information about the variables affecting the antioxidant...

Background: The purpose of the present in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of long term storage of conventional platelet concentrates (PCs) on major platelet receptors CD42b and CD41/CD61 by flow cytometry method and also measuring the overall platelet procoagulant activity status using platelet factor 3 (PF3) assay. Materials and Methods: Six random units of conventional platelet conce...

mazafati date is a wet and semi-dried date fruit type with dark red to black color that has premier quality. because of its high moisture content, date fruits of this variety are very perishable at room temperature and therefore must be refrigerated during storage. in this study, effect of air temperature (50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 ˚c) and air flow rate (1, 1.5 and 2 m/s) in hot air drying of mazaf...
