Effects of formulation parameters on the fractional release profile of diclofenac sodium from matrices having the manufacturing formulation ingredients are studied. As a content of cetyl alcohol (rate controlling agent) in the matrix increases, the fractional release decreases. The fractional release increases either by increasing sucrose content outside the granule or by decreasing sucrose...

The present study was aimed to assess the effect of information about organic production on beef liking and consumer willingness to pay. Mean scores of perceived liking were higher for organic beef (OB) as compared to conventional beef (CB). Expected liking scores were higher for OB than for CB. For OB the expected liking was significantly higher than the perceived liking expressed in blind con...

We give a formula for a morphism between Specht modules over (Z/m)Sn, where n ≥ 1, and where the partition indexing the target Specht module arises from that indexing the source Specht module by a downwards shift of one box, m being the box shift length. Our morphism can be reinterpreted integrally as an extension of order m of the corresponding Specht lattices.
