X-Ray absorption spectromicroscopy provides rich information on the chemical organization of materials down to the nanoscale. However, interpretation of this information in studies of "natural" materials such as biological or environmental science specimens can be complicated by the complex mixtures of spectroscopically complicated materials present. We describe here the shortcomings that somet...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect Tenebrio molitor larvae meal supplementation in chicken diets on chemical composition and sensory quality meat. experiment conducted 120 Ross 308 male broilers from day 12 38 their age. Broilers were divided into three equal groups with 5 replicates per treatment. two experimental received feed mixtures containing 2% (TM2; n = 40) 5% (TM5; 40), r...

the purpose of this study was to determine the socio-economic and intellectual factors affecting the imported meat preferences of consumers and to reveal the personal prioritized preferences of buyers consuming domestic meat and imported meat. the study was carried out in izmir, the third city of turkey, where face-to-face interviews were conducted in 300householdswhose occupants shop at hyperm...

Fermented sausages are stable meat items typically prepared from comminuted mixtures of meat, spices, and salts permitted to ripe under controlled conditions, where bacteria produce lactic acid quickly reliably added sugars in the form dextrose. This study assessed possibility using fresh plantain (FRP) semi-dry fermented beef sausages. FRP was used at 0% (T0), 5% (T1) 10% (T2). A fourth treatm...

In Germany, the Commission for the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the Work Area (MAK Commission) generally sets maximum workplace concentration values (i.e., a proposed occupational exposure level [OEL]) for single substances, not for mixtures. For mixtures containing substances with a genotoxic and carcinogenic potential, the commission considered it scientifically in...

Inside living cells are complex mixtures of thousands of components. It is hopeless to try to characterize all the individual interactions in these mixtures. Thus, we develop a statistical approach to approximating them, and examine the conditions under which the mixtures phase separate. The approach approximates the matrix of second-virial coefficients of the mixture by a random matrix, and de...

in this work, artificial neural network (ann) has been employed to propose a practical model forpredicting the surface tension of multi-component mixtures. in order to develop a reliable modelbased on the ann, a comprehensive experimental data set including 15 ternary liquid mixtures atdifferent temperatures was employed. these systems consist of 777 data points generally containinghydrocarbon ...

background: these findings from several observational studies, investigated the association between red meat consumption and gliomas, were inconsistent. we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies to summarize available date on the relation between meat intake and risk of glioma. materials and methods: a systematic literature search of relevant reports published ...
