The chemical and thermal characteristics of goldenberry pomace oil (GPO) seed (GSO) were investigated. GPO GSO contained high levels unsaturated fatty acids (90.1% 85.1%, respectively), the major acid was linoleic (62.0% 72.8%, respectively). Additionally, eleven triacylglycerol (TAG) species, three which represented 82.7%, namely C54:6, C54:4 C52:4, trilinolein dominant one (35.5%). nine TAG t...

Medicinal formulas are a part of the complex discipline of traditional Chinese medicine that has been used for centuries in China and East Asia. These formulas predominantly consist of the extracts isolated from herbal plants, animal parts and medicinal minerals. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of 150 formulas, used as non-prescription drugs in China, on the treatment of cance...

The transformation from the C49 to the C54 phase in TiSi2 thin films has been studied for more than a decade because of its importance to the semiconductor industry. In previous work we identified three dominant C54 orientations in TiSi2 thin films on Si(001) substrates using X-ray pole figure analysis. In the current study the evolution of the three prominent C54 texture components was further...

Microstructural study of the C49-TiSi, to C54-TiSi, polymorphic transformation has been performed to elucidate microstructural evolution and possible mechanism of the phase transformation. It has been shown that the nucleation of the C54-TiSi, is heterogeneous, and preferentially takes place at triple grain junctions or grain boundaries. The interphase interfaces between C49 and C54 disilicides...

It has been demonstrated that C54 TiSi2 phase formation can be significantly enhanced by multi-thermal-shock (MTS) method. In this work, the enhancement mechanism of C54 phase formation and the interfacial reactions between TiSi2 and Si were investigated. The results indicate that the semi-coherent interface between TiSi2 C49 phase and Si substrate may be responsible for the rough surface of th...

In this paper laser thermal processing ~LTP! is applied to induce the Ti silicide formation in replacement of rapid thermal annealing ~RTA! in narrow lines. Results show that the C40 TiSi2 is synthesized after LTP in both large and small features. With this interfacial C40 TiSi2 , the C54 TiSi2-phase formation temperature can be lowered by 100°C during subsequent annealing. The C40-C54-phase tr...

We demonstrate that picosecond ultrasonics is a sensitive nondestructive probe of the formation of TiSi, from the reaction of titanium films on silicon annealed at temperatures of 300-800 “C. From the measured change in optical reflectivity, the responses due to electronic excitation, acoustic echoes, and thermal coupling to the underlying Si are resolved. The results show significant differenc...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential use of fatty acids, triacylglycerols, and cholesterol in the detection of adulterated milk fat. The fatty acid, triacylglycerol, and cholesterol profiles of the mixtures of milk and non-milk fat (adulteration ratios of 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90%) were analyzed by gas chromatography. The results showed that concentrations of the fatty acids wi...
