Previous studies in the issue of inventory models with imperfect quality assumed the defectives could be sold in a batch by the end of the inspection process and the manufacturing systems were push systems. However, the above assumptions may not be true in the pull system in which buyer is powerful. Therefore, in this paper, we develop a new inventory model for items with imperfect quality and ...

Connection between the developmental stage and the quantity and quality of essential oil was investigated in some model species of the Asteraceae, Lamiaceae and Apiaceae plant families. The accumulation of essential oil decreased continuously during ontogenesis in Tanacetum vulgare. The tendency of accumulation showed an optimum curve in Mentha piperita, Hyssopus officinalis, Majorana hortensis...
