The effects of the disinfectants NaClO and calcinated calcium on the food-borne pathogens Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Salmonella spp. attached to shredded cabbage leaves were examined. After these bacteria were attached to shredded leaves for 1 h, the leaves were treated with NaClO and/or calcinated calcium. About 2.6-log and 3.5-log reductions of E. coli O157 were achi...

Zinc oxide nanofibers were prepared using the polymer Zinc acetate solution, by a modest programmable microcontroller aided electro spinning technique. The prepared and calcinated nanofibers were characterized using standard analytical methods. The hexagonal wurtzite structure for calcinated nanofibers of diameters ranging between 10-13 nm were inferred from structural analysis. The Field Emiss...

The current investigation deals with the fabrication of two various composite-based bentonite clay minerals. characterization and radiation shielding parameters for fabricated composites (calcinated ball-milled calcinated bentonite) were studied. X-ray diffraction was utilized to illustrate crystalline phase composites. Furthermore, Williamson Hall’s method used determine grain size both partic...

1. The effects of chronic ethanol administration on the metabolism of ethanol and acetaldehyde were studied in rats fed on a commercial diet containing an aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor, calcium cyanamide (calcium carbimide), as a contaminant in the calcinated bone-meal fraction of the diet. 2. Rats given an ethanol solution (150 ml/l) for 3 months and fed on a diet containing calcinated bone...

The synthesis of nanoparticles silica oxide from rice husk, sugar cane bagasse and coffee husk, by employing vermicompost with annelids (Eisenia foetida) is reported. The product (humus) is calcinated and extracted to recover the crystalline nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and dynamic light ...

Synthetic fluorspar can be produced from waste calcium fluoride slurry settled on dumpsites located near Cracow centre. Synthetic fluorspar exchanges natural raw material used in the metallurgical industry. To obtain grained synthetic fluorspar, calcium fluoride slurry should be calcinated in rotary kilns at temperatures of 900-1100K. Grain size and compression strength strongly depends on calc...

Commercially available silica gel is chemically modified for carbon dioxide capture. Calcinated silica gel of certain particle size functionalized with amine using two different methods, wet impregnation and grafting via silane chemistry has been employed as a porous media. The prepared material is characterized by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive anal...

Siddha system of medicine is one of the ancient systems of medicine in India. According to Siddhars, peptic ulcer is known as Valigunmam with its signs and symptoms as detailed in Siddha literature matching modern terminology of peptic ulcer. Bhasma refers to calcinated metals and minerals. During this study the Bhasma of Musa paradisiaca Linn, is prepared and evaluated for its antiulcer effect...
