Background & Aim: The major problem of pharmaceutical industry for herbal product in current scenario is authentication of raw material, and availability of standards. The quality control and quality assurance of herbal drugs still remains a challenge because of the high variability of chemical components involved. Experimental: In present research work d...

The effects of black rice powder on the quality of sausage were investigated. Samples were prepared with 0% (control), 1%, 3%, and 5% black rice powder. With increasing black rice powder content, the moisture and ash content of sausage increased, while protein content was significantly less than that observed for the control (p<0.05). The fat content in samples containing 5% black rice powder w...

objective(s): so far, extensive research has been conducted on the preparation and characterization of nano ceramics based on ca-si by sol- gel method and bioactivity was evaluated, but, a few researches have paid attention to the preparation of materials by mechanical activation (ma). the aim of this study was the preparation of akermanite nano powder by mechanical activation method and bioact...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of smokeless tobacco (Maras powder, Nicotiana rustica Linn) on carotid intima media thickness. MATERIAL/METHODS The study included 32 Maras powder users presenting to our Family Medicine outpatient clinic and 30 non-users of Maras powder as a control group. Carotid intima media thickness was measured by duplex ultrasonography. ...

By using lactose colored with erythrocin, we examined the effect of particle size on mixing degree during the preparation of triturations with a mortar and pestle. We used powders with different distributions of particle sizes, i.e., powder that passed through 32-mesh but was trapped on a 42-mesh sieve (32/42-mesh powder), powder that passed through a 42-mesh sieve but was trapped on a 60-mesh ...

In this research, we assessed the influence of an ultrafine 2CaO·SiO₂ powder on the hydration properties of a reactive powder concrete system. The ultrafine powder was manufactured through chemical combustion method. The morphology of ultrafine powder and the development of hydration products in the cement paste prepared with ultrafine powder were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (S...

Physicochemical properties of pork patties formulated with black rice powder were investigated. Moisture contents of samples containing black rice powder were significantly higher than that of the control (p<0.05). Protein, fat, and ash contents increased with increasing black rice powder content. Uncooked and cooked pH values of samples increased with increasing black rice powder content. Ligh...

Laser-based additive manufacturing (LBAM) requires precise control over the metal, ceramic, or carbide powder added to the molten pool. The feeding rate of the powder must be very consistent, and it must respond rapidly to commands to change the feeding rate. LBAM also requires feeding rates as low as one gram per minute. Currently, commercially available powder feeders are optimized for such t...
