Two batches of frankfurters containing about 55% chicken meat with two different oils (including canola and soybean) were manufactured. Batch 1 included canola oil and Batch 2 included soybean oil in the products. Various analyses were performed to detect the lipid changes of both batches during storage. Fatty acid composition analysis using gas chromatography showed little change in the fatty ...

The impact of chemical desiccation on yield showed contrasting results depending on seedmoisture content at the time of application. Its effects on seed deterioration are still unknownand could be modified by seed composition. Objectives were to evaluate the impact of chemicaldesiccation on: i) hybrid sunflower seed yield and composition at harvest time, ii) seeddeterioration during long-term s...

The ablation and oxidation of ZrB₂-based ultra high temperature ceramic (UHTC) composites containing 10%, 15% and 30% v/v SiC were tested under different heat fluxes in a high frequency plasma wind tunnel. Performance was significantly affected by the surface temperature, which was strongly dependent on the composition. Composites containing 10% SiC showed the highest surface temperature (>2300...

background anaerobic-inducible promoters are alternatives of chemical-inducible promoters for expression of recombinant proteins especially in conditions where chemical induction is not possible or anaerobic conditions are preferable. the nirb promoter is the promoter of the first gene of nir operon in escherichia coli, which encodes nadh-dependent nitrite reductase. this promoter is naturally ...

Existence and stability of travelling waves are conveniently studied on unbounded domains , for instance, on the real line. Motivated by numerical and experimental studies, we investigate the eeects of truncating the unbounded domain to a large but bounded domain. It is shown that periodic boundary conditions accurately reproduce the L 2-spectrum of the unbounded domain, whereas separated bound...

To make the ππ state with non-zero relative momentum as the leading exponential, we impose anti-periodic boundary condition on the pion, which is implemented by imposing G-parity or H-parity on the quark fields at the boundary. With this, we calculate the I = 2 ππ phase shift from lattice simulation by using Lüscher's formula.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the solution of a semilinear problem and of a Stokes problem, with periodic data, when the size of the domain increases. In particular, we prove exponential convergence to the solution of the corresponding problem with periodic boundary conditions.

A three-dimensional air quality model based on a set of chemical species mass conservation equations describes the time evolution of chemical species in the atmosphere. In order to solve this set of equations, proper choices of initial and boundary conditions are needed. Ideally, initial and boundary conditions should be determined on the basis of observations. However, since such high-resoluti...
