samples of grass pea seed (lathyrus sativus) were prepared and analyzed for some chemical composition and as well for their anti-nutritional factors. the rumen degradability coefficients and post ruminal digestibility of dry matter and crude protein of unheated vs. oven heated samples were determined, employing in situ and in vitro techniques. results indicated that grass pea seed contained a c...

the intensity of noise, heat and light were measured in 10 different groups of food processing plants with 3820 employees. noise was measured in 265 working places and if the over-all noise was more than t.l.v. (90dba), the octave band analysis was carried out. effective temperature (e.t) or corrected effective temperature (c.e.t) were measured in 183 working places and air velocity relative hu...

background: the second processing cycle for adding the artificial teeth to heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases may result in dimensional changes of the denture bases. the aim of thisstudy was to evaluate the dimensional changes of the heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture bases with one and two-cycle processing methods. materials and methods: a metal edentulous maxillary arch was used...

the present study was carried out to investigate the replacement of soybean meal by different levels of canola meal (either with or without canola meal undergoing heat processing). two hundred forty commercial layer hens (lsl strain) at 54th week of age, selected based on the same egg production percentage and body weight. the experimental design was a crd, in a factorial arrangement of 4 repli...

pistachio has a special ranking among iranian agricultural products. iran is known as the largest producer and exporter of pistachio in the world. agricultural products are imposed under different thermal treatments during storage and processing. designing all these processes requires thermal parameters of the products such as specific heat capacity. regarding the importance of pistachio proces...

a specific polymerase chain reaction (pcr) method was applied for identification of bovine (bos taurus), ovine (ovis aries) and caprine (capra hircus) pure and binary mixtures of raw and heat-processed meats. these meats are used in food industry products and/or for direct consumption of consumers. the mitochondrial dna was amplified as a template in a pcr reaction by use of specific primers re...

the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of enterotoxigenic and enteroaggregative strains ofescherichia coli in chicken carcasses by polymerase chain reaction (pcr). in this study 63 strains of e. coliwere isolated from 110 samples of chicken carcasses during processing after chilling in the poultry slaughterhouse of shahrekord. polymerase chain reaction assays were used to detect t...
