background and objective : mozzarella is a soft cheese belonging to the pasta filata family, containing 18-24 % fat. the objective of this study was to determine the effect lowering mozarella fat content to 6% and adding whey protein concentrate on the rheological properties of the low-fat cheese. materials and methods : low-fat mozzarella was produced using 3 fat replacers ( dairy-lo, 35% prot...

preparations of platelet concentrates (pcs) that are stored under blood bank conditions and used for transfusion purposes, appear to be enriched in platelet derived-microparticles (pmps) with high coagulant activity that may change platelet efficacy and safety issues. high shear stress could cause shedding of pmps from the platelet plasma membrane, platelet aggregation, and activation of the co...

The current treatment of haemophilia with coagulation protein replacement therapy is both effective and safe. Nevertheless, this therapy requires frequent, repeated intravenous infusions and approximately 25% of treated haemophilia A patients develop antibodies to the replacement protein. Furthermore, the cost and limited availability of current concentrates has restricted access to therapy to ...

Call a sum of exponentials of the form f(x) = exp (2πiN1x) + exp (2πiN2x) + · · ·+ exp (2πiNmx), where the Nk are distinct integers, an idempotent. We have L interval concentration if there is a positive constant a, depending only on p, such that for each interval I ⊂ [0, 1] there is an idempotent f so that R I |f (x)| dx R 1 0 |f (x)| dx > a. We will explain how to produce such concentration f...

This research was conducted to estimate the amount of microbial protein synthesis in Iranian buffaloes' rumen. Four male swamp buffaloes with average live body weight of 140±10 kg were used in this study. Four diets of 0 (control diet, 100% forage), 15, 30 and 45% concentrate in a 4 × 4 Latin Square were tested. The results indicated that by increasing the concentrate level in the diet of swamp...

The aim of this study was to use meta-analysis to identify the enteric methane (CH4) mitigation strategy that reduced CH4 emission without lowering production. To this end, a database initially developed was updated, compiling data from 61 publications (233 experiments) for various observations in dairy cattle on effects of hydrogen sink (H-sink), ionophore, lipid and conc...

Profitability of different grouping criteria was simulated in a dairy farm with 153 lactating cows that were divided into three groups of high (79), medium (40) and low (34) cows based on the milk records. Animals were reassigned to the new groups based on the following criteria using a decision support tool and the same three groups scenario: fat corrected milk 4%, days in milk (DIM), dairy me...

In this research work, the zinc extraction was investigated, using bioleaching process from a low grade zinc concentrate which was produced from the accumulated flotation tailings. Zinc content was initially upgraded to 11.97% by flotation process. Bioleaching experiments were designed and carried out by a mixed culture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans, Leptospir...
