The comparison of form factors calculated from a single-particle current in different relativistic quantum mechanic approaches evidences tremendous discrepancies. The role of constraints coming from space-time translations is considered here with this respect. It is known that invariance under these translations implies the energy-momentum conservation relation that is usually assumed to hold g...

This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of the simultaneous application of near-infrared (NIR) heating and UV irradiation for reducing populations of food-borne pathogens, including Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and Escherichia coli O157:H7 in red pepper powder and to clarify the mechanisms of the lethal effect of the NIR-UV combined treatment. Also, the effect of the com...

Dietary macro and micro nutrients in their respective proportion and fractions present a practical potential tool to fabricate milk constituents since cells of lactating mammary glands obtain about 80 % of milk synthesis nutrients from blood, reflecting the existence of an isotonic equilibrium between blood and milk. Diverting milk biosynthetic activities through manipulation of nutrients towar...

Titration data on milk have been published by Van Slyke and Baker (l), Buchanan and Peterson (2), Moser (3), and others. Titration curves of milk have been given by Clark (4) and by Moser (3). Buchanan and Peterson (2) have calculated the buffer efficiency of milk for a number of zones of the pH range. Clark (4, 5) has made several similar calculations and has outlined the difficulties to be av...

I . The intake and excretion of energy, total nitrogen, fat and carbohydrate by twenty baby boys aged about a fortnight were measured over 3 days. 2. Ten of the babies received breast milk which had been expressed from their mothers, the remaining ten received one of two preparations based on dried cow’s milk, with either lactose or sucrose added. 3 . The intake of energy, protein and carbohydr...

Milk yield and composition data from 7 nursing Lusitano mares (450 to 580 kg of body weight and 2 to 9 parities) were used in this study (5 measurements per mare for milk yield and 8 measurements for composition). Wood's lactation model was used to describe milk fat, protein, and lactose lactation curves. Mean values for the concentration of major milk components across the lactation period (18...

The goal of this study was to determine whether serotonin increase the mean plasma concentrations of thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), growth hormone (GH), milk amount and constituents in the Sanan goats. Nine Sanan goats were randomly divided into 3 groups. Each group received daily infusion of 1, 4 or 8 ng serotonin agonist (hydroxytryptophan) (5HT) for 7 days. Blood and milk samples wer...
