The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of dipping time and temperature of hot water and type of packaging on qualitative traits of Orlando tangelo variety of tangerine. This study was conducted as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three repeats. The treatments consisted of dipping in hot water at seven water levels at 53°C and 58°C each for 1, 2 and 4 minutes...

Bathing-related epilepsy (BRE), which is also known as water immersion epilepsy, is a rare, benign, reflex epilepsy. It presents with focal seizures that occur during bathing with hot water and has a favorable prognosis (1). The exact mechanism underlying these seizures is unknown (1). This epilepsy is frequently confused with hot water epilepsy (HWE) and is generally seen during childhood and ...

The source of Mycobacterium avium infection in AIDS has not been identified and it is not known whether most patients with AIDS acquire the organism from recent infection or by reactivation of previous infection. As part of a prospective epidemiological study, we isolated multiple colonies of M avium from patients with AIDS and from potable water to which they had been exposed. All isolates wer...

Efficacy and toxicity of aqueous and organic solvents extracts of Maerua edulis against ticks and mice, respectively, were determined. Ground leaves were extracted separately using cold water, cold water plus surfactant (1% v/v liquid soap), hot water plus surfactant, hexane, or methanol to make 25% w/v stock solutions from which serial dilutions of 5, 10, 20, and 25% were made. For each concen...

ABSTRACT A platform is proposed for the extraction of nutraceuticals ingredients from natural products, which includes the following three processes: 1. Single-stage extraction using scCO2 (supercritical CO2). 2. Single-stage extraction using of high-pressure hot water and /or hot water with scCO2. 3. Multistage extraction, with counter-currently contact between scCO2 and H2O with the raw mater...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Hot water epilepsy (HWE) is well recognized reflex epilepsy with possible genetic susceptibility. Rat model and human experimentation had proven that HWE is a type of hyperthermic seizure with possible kindling on repeated stimulation in animals. The present study was undertaken to investigate kindling associated with hyperthermic seizures induced by repeated hot water s...

In late 1907, Charles Fraser, the Victorian government entomologist, travelled to North Queensland. His observations of the flora and fauna in this part of Australia were later published in the Victorian Naturalist. However, this journey was not motivated entirely by his desire to study natural history. As a sufferer of ‘rhematic [sic] troubles’, he spent a few days soaking in the mineral-impre...

Thermal weed control plays an important role in managing weeds synthetic herbicide-free systems, particularly organic agriculture and urban areas where herbicides are prohibited. This study compares the impact on of increased doses hot water foam (i.e. 0, 0.67, 1.67, 3.33, 5.00, 6.67 8.33 kg m–2). The were applied using same machine. temperatures, effectiveness, regrowth after death aboveground...

triticale (x triticosecale wittmack) is a hybrid seed plant result from wheat and secale. this seed has high amylolitic and protelytic activities, introducing it as adjuncts in mashing process. in this study, influence of malting process on physico-chemical properties variety of barley (namely sahra) and triticale and malt quality of them were investigate. malt of barley was selected as referen...
