phenolic compounds, especially those of plant origin, constitute an essential part of the human diet, and are of considerable interest due to their antioxidant properties. in this study, ultrasound-assisted extraction (uae), microwave-assisted extraction (mae), as well as maceration extraction (me) methods were applied for phenolic compounds’ extraction from pistachio green hull. response surfa...

An experiment was conducted to determine protein quality in processed protein sources using the content of AA, -methylisourea (OMIU)-reactive Lys, Maillard reaction products (MRP), and cross-link products; the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA; and growth performance in growing pigs as criteria. Differences in protein quality were created by secondary toasting (at 95°C for 30 ...

The role of PKC and RhoA/ROCK pathways in the phasic activities in the rectal smooth muscles (RSM) in the basal state is not known. We examined this issue by determining the effects of PKC inhibitors (calphostin C and Gö-6850) and a ROCK inhibitor (Y-27632) on the slow-rate (~3/min) and fast-rate (~25/min) phasic activities. We also examined the corresponding signal transduction cascades and th...

This paper introduces an original 2-valued semantics for Normal Logic Programs (NLP), important on its own. Nevertheless, its name draws attention to that it is inspired by and generalizes Stable Model semantics (SM). The definitional distinction consists in the revision of one feature of SM, namely its treatment of odd loops over default negation. This single revised aspect, addressed by means...

RSM is a replacement sensor model that replaces with high fidelity all aspects of the original sensor model for virtually all imaging sensors. This includes the ground-to-image relationship, adjustability, and rigorous error propagation. RSM can do so for both satellite and airborne platforms as well as for different sensor modalities (optical and SAR). This paper provides a general introductio...

In this paper we propose an enhanced version of the residual sub-sampling method (RSM) in Driscoll and Heryudono (2007) for adaptive interpolation by radial basis functions (RBFs). More precisely, introduce context methods a maximum profile likelihood estimation (MPLE) criterion optimal selection RBF shape parameter. This choice is completely automatic, provides highly reliable accurate results...

Response Surface Methodology (RSM) searches for the input combination that optimizes the simulation output. RSM treats the simulation model as a black box. Moreover, this paper assumes that simulation requires much computer time. In the first stages of its search, RSM locally fits first-order polynomials. Next, classic RSM uses steepest descent (SD); unfortunately, SD is scale dependent. Theref...

Rapeseed meal (RSM) was subjected to different physical or chemical pretreatments to decrease residual, hard to degrade carbohydrates and to improve fermentability of RSM polysaccharides. Next, these pretreated samples were in vitro digested and fermented, with or without the addition of commercial pectinolytic enzymes. Remaining carbohydrates were quantified, and two physical characteristics w...

Modeling and optimization were performed to enhance production of lactase through submerged fermentation by Bacillus subtilis VUVD001 using artificial neural networks (ANN) and response surface methodology (RSM). The effect of process parameters namely temperature (°C), pH, and incubation time (h) and their combinational interactions on production was studied in shake flask culture by Box-Behnk...

The National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS) indices deduced from RSM 50-km 1-day simulations from January 1998 through December 2003 are used in conjunction with a probability model to determine the expected number of fire occurrences and large fire events. The RSM simulation and forecasts are ongoing experimental products from the Experimental Climate Prediction Center (ECPC) at Scripps Ins...
