This study aimed to evaluate the impact of thermal processing and soaking on the profiles and contents of phenolic compounds in brown beans, as well as their antioxidant activity. We evaluated the antioxidant activity of extracts and the contents of phenolic acids and flavonoids by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). With the exception of chlorogenic acid, the contents of all of the ...

Vacuum brazing products have excellent joining quality, less deformation and fewer residual stresses. The vacuum brazing technique has significant effect on the microstructure and property of the aluminum brazed joint, but there is little discussion about the optimization of the process. This study investigates how different process parameters affect the tensile properties of 6061-T6 aluminum v...

Crystal soaking is widely performed in biological crystallography. This paper reports time-resolved X-ray crystallographic and microtomographic analyses of tetragonal crystals of chicken egg-white lysozyme soaked in mother liquor containing potassium hexachloroplatinate. The microtomographic analysis showed that X-ray attenuation spread from the superficial layer of the crystal and then to the ...

This work describes the optimization of cryogenic treatment (CT) parameters such as the cooling rate, the soaking temperature, the soaking time, the tempering temperature and the tempering time to maximise the tool wear of high speed steel tools in dry turning of AISI 316 grade austenitic stainless steels by Taguchi method. For this purpose, four iteration of Taguchi design (L16) have been used...

Rooting and shoot growth were evaluated on stem tip cuttings of砂pencumpe功ratum receiving various auxin soaking treatments. Five-cm-Iong stem tips (0.08 g fresh weight in average) were soaked in IAA, 1 BA, NAA and 2,4-D solutions at 5, 25 , 125μM for 10 min, and then placed in a rockwool block for three weeks. A deionized water soaking treatment was served as a control. The results indicated tha...

Durian seed is an agricultural biomass waste of durian fruit. It can be a natural plant source of non-starch polysaccharide gum with potential functional properties. The main goal of the present study was to investigate the effect of chemical extraction variables (i.e., the decolouring time, soaking temperature and soaking time) on the physicochemical properties of durian seed gum. The physicoc...

Dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) reacts with fluoride ion in an aqueous solution and forms stable fluoroapatite (FAp). This reaction requires a lag time to form nano-sized precursor, hydroxyapatite (HAp)-like calcium phosphate, on DCPD surface. This long lag time prevents DCPD from applying as an effective fluoride removal agent from waste water. The purpose of this study is to improve the ...

Corn fractionation in modified dry grind processes results in low fermentation efficiency of corn grits because of nutrient deficiency. This study investigated the use of nutrient-rich water from germ soaking to improve grits fermentation in the conventional dry grind and granular starch hydrolysis (GSH) processes. Comparison of germ soak water with the use of protease and external B-vitamin ad...
