with regard to the mutual relations between plant and soil as the main component of rangeland ecosystems, this research has been identified the indicator species in environmental conditions of dry regions as the most important tools in ecological management of these ecosystems. therefore the steppe and dry rangelands of kooh - e- namak in qom province was selected. sampling was done by plot in ...

background and objective: semi-dry fermented sausages were manufactured from beef meat in three types: without starter culture (control), inoculated with lactobacillus casei and inoculated with lactobacillus paracasei. probiotic fermented sausages are safe and healthy meat products, which receive high commercial interest and growing market shares. material and methods: the physico–chemical char...

The effect of strain path changes on the microstructure/crystallographic texture characteristics was studied in a 22Cr-6Ni-3Mo duplex stainless steel subjected to several deformation regimes comprising forward and reverse torsion, performed at a temperature of 1000 °C using a strain rate of 1 s. A high-resolution EBSD technique, utilising an FEI Sirion FEG SEM in conjunction with a HKL Technolo...

Mixtures of cereals and legumes result in products with higher content of high biological value proteins. The thermoplastic extrusion promotes the transformation of chemical, physical and nutritional characteristics of the food such as starch gelatinization and promotes the inactivation of anti-nutritional compounds and enzymes. This study aimed to develop products extruded using broken rice an...

The scope of research is taking samples which are pieces marble at Ancient City Iasos in this article. Samples from the various monuments ancient city were analysed to determine mineralogical-petrographic characteristics and chemical composition. main objectives investigation basic these marbles. This article contained part mineralogical petrographic study quantitative composition analysis kind...

Textural properties provide information on the ingestibility, digestibility and state of ripeness or decay of sources of nutrition. Compared with our understanding of the chemosensory assessment of food, little is known about the mechanisms of texture detection. Here we show that Drosophila melanogaster can discriminate food texture, avoiding substrates that are either too hard or too soft. Man...

Displacement of soil particles caused by erosion influences soil condition and fertility. To date, the cesium 137 isotope ((137)Cs) technique is most commonly used for soil particle tracing. However when large areas are considered, the expensive soil sampling and analysis present an obstacle. Infrared spectral measurements would provide a solution, however the small concentrations of the isotop...

Spectrophotometers are usually built based on one of these two kinds of geometry; d/8 (diffuse/8) and 45/0. Considering that measured or observed colors depend on the illuminating and viewing conditions, the 45/0 spectrophotometer geometry or d/8 geometry affects the results. In addition, the sample characteristics such as gloss or texture can also influence the measuring results. Therefore, th...
