This research focuses on the characteristics of polyvinyl alcohol and starch polymer blends doping with Rhodamine-B. The were prepared using solution cast method, which comprises 1:1(wt. /wt.). PVA had different ratios glycerin 0, 25, 30, 35, 40 % wt. ratio 30% wt was found to be most suitable mechanical properties by strength elasticity. blend 1:1 starch/PVA doped Rhoda mine-B dye 1, 2, 3, 4, ...

The aim of the study was to evaluate antibacterial activity of composite materials modified with calcium fluoride against cariogenic bacteria S. mutans and L. acidophilus. One commercially available conventional light-curing composite material containing fluoride ions (F2) and two commercially available flowable light-curing composite materials (Flow Art and X-Flow) modified with 1.5, 2.5, and ...

Transient receptor potential (TRP) subfamily M member 5 (TRPM5) cation channel is involved in sensing sweet, bitter, umami, and fat taste stimuli, complex-tasting divalent salts, and temperature-induced changes in sweet taste. To investigate if the amiloride- and benzamil (Bz)-insensitive NaCl chorda tympani (CT) taste nerve response is also regulated in part by TRPM5, CT responses to 100 mM Na...

Effects of vacuum on moisture retention and quality characteristics of aged chicken breast fillets were evaluated. One hundred twenty-eight broilers (2 replicates of 64 birds each) were manually slaughtered, chilled in ice water, placed in unsealed plastic bags, and then aged overnight at 4 degrees C. Both pectoralis major muscles were harvested from each carcass. Left muscles were marinated fo...

Critical PVTX properties of NaCl-Hz0 fluids having compositions ofO-30 wt% NaCl have been determined using the synthetic fluid inclusion technique. Critical temperatures and pressures increase from 374. I “C and 220 bars for pure H20, to 820°C and 1574 bars for 30.0 wt% NaCl. Critical specific volumes decrease from 3. I 1 to 1.44 cm3/g over this same salinity range. Critical temperatures of NaC...
