Currently, Malaysia has significantly increased its reputation as a country ripe for investments in the palm-based lignocellulosic biomass space. Lignocellulosic palm biomass is composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, as well as other minor components. The presence of highly cellulose content in palm biomass is potentially convert to nanocellulose, which is a promising bio-polymer that...

Epidemiological studies have demonstrated the benefits of nut consumption on cardiovascular risk factors and CHD, attributed to their fatty acid profile, rich in unsaturated fatty acids, and also to other nutrients. The effect of nuts on atherosclerotic lesions was studied in female and male apoE-knockout mice fed a diet supplemented with 3 % (w/w) mixed nuts (mix: almonds, hazelnuts and walnut...

in this research, tested factors were margarine types (contractive effects between types of oils in base of margarine such as palm super olein – partially hydrogenated canola oil – 50:50 mixture of palm super olein and partially hydrogenated canola oil and liquid canola) and different moisture (16-8-4%) as the first factor and heating time is the second factor. every margarines spend 3 times he...

Diet for some time now in Nigeria has undergone many changes such as changes in dietary intake of fats and oils. There has been an increasing consumption of partially hydrogenated trans-vegetable oils and a decreasing intake of lauric acid-containing oils.

abstract date palm, phoenix dactylifera, is one of the most important horticultural crops in iran. the most soils in iran, especially those cultivated with palm, are calcareous with high ph. the high ph of soil causes reduction of nutrient elements absorption. findings of researches show that application of elemental sulfur along with tiobacillus bacteria in soil, due to sulfur oxidation, reduc...

The purpose of this study was to test if replacement of trans fatty acids by palmitic acid in an experimental margarine results in unfavourable effects on serum lipids and haemostatic factors. We have compared the effects of three different margarines, one based on palm oil (PALM-margarine), one based on partially hydrogenated soybean oil (TRANS- margarine) and one with a high content of polyun...

Biometrics is playing an important role for person recognition. The Biometrics identification of an individual is can be done by physiological or behavioral characteristics; where the palm print of an individual can be captured by using sensors and is one of among physiological characteristics of an individual. Palm print is a unique and reliable biometric characteristic with high usability. A ...
