The effects of dehulling and micronization (infrared heating) on the nutritive value of three cultivars (Impala, Radley, and Sirius) of peas (Pisum sativum) varying in coat color for broiler chickens were studied. Dehulling increased (P < or = 0.05) protein and starch contents and decreased (P < or = 0.05) fiber content of peas. Also, the concentrations of most amino acids slightly increased (P...

lysozyme, as a model protein, was precipitated through the formation of protein-zn complex to micronize for subsequent encapsulation within poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (plga) microspheres. various parameters, including ph, type and concentration of added salts and protein concentration, were modified to optimize the yield of protein complexation and precipitation. the resulting protein parti...

For the management of a (micro)-smart grid it is important to know the patters of the load profiles and of the generators. In this article the power consumption data obtained through a monitoring activity developed on a micro-smart grid in an agro-industrial test-site are presented. In particular, this reports the synthesis of the monitoring results of 5 loads (5 industrial machineries for crop...

OBJECTIVE To compare the dissolution properties of Ginseng micropowder and common powder in vitro and investigate the effect of micronization on dissolution of Ginseng. METHODS Five ginsenosides including Rg1, Re, Rf, Rb1, and Rb2 were determined by high performance liquid chromatography, and the dissolution curves of Ginseng micropowder and common powder were drawn. RESULTS The dissolution...

PURPOSE The micronization using milling process to enhance dissolution rate is extremely inefficient due to a high energy input, and disruptions in the crystal lattice which can cause physical or chemical instability. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to use in situ micronization process through pH change method to produce micron-size gliclazide particles for fast dissolution hence bet...

The purpose of this study was to propose an analytical procedure that provides the effects of particle size and surface area on dissolution of efavirenz. Five different batches obtained by different micronization processes and with different particle size distribution and surface area were studied. The preformulation studies and dissolution curves were used to confirm the particle size distribu...

Due to its low bioavailability and slow dissolution rate, the micronized spiramycin powder was thus prepared by the homogenate-antisolvent precipitation (HAP) process. The optimum micronization conditions of the HAP process were found to be as follows: precipitation temperature of 4.6 ◦C, precipitation time of 10 min, spiramycin concentration of 20 mg/mL, dripping speed of the added solvent int...
