The effect of frying pressure on the kinetics of color changes during atmospheric and vacuum deep fat frying of Reshteh Khoshkar has been studied. The Hunter color parameters redness, yellowness, lightness and total color difference were used to estimate color changes during frying as a function of process. Lightness (L*) decreased from 85.37 to 75.01 with vacuum frying time, while redness (a*)...

In the present work, a numerical simulation of two parallel turbulent jets was performed. The simulations were carried out by using the  standard, the  standard and the RSM models. A parametric study was also presented to determine the effect of the nozzles spacing and velocity ratio on the axial and transverse positions of the merge and combined points. Correlations between the various paramet...

Objective(s) Sonodynamic therapy is a physical treatment which utilizes ultrasound waves with an appropriate sensitizer such as protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). The activation of sensitizer depends on cavitation, and therefore, high intensity ultrasound is an important necessity. Beside, high intensity ultrasound can induce side effects on the healthy tissues which have surrounded tumor. The particle...

the new cereal, primary tritipyrum is a synthetic amphiploid derived from crossing between durum wheat varieties (triticum durum, 2n=4x=28, aabb) and wild coach grass species (thinopyrum bessarabicum, 2n=2x=14, ebeb). in this study the genotype × environment interaction effect containing change in rank and value for grain yield of seventeen genotypes including eight primary and combined primary...

a trial study was carried out to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on wheat yield and components, at the agricultural faculty of shahidchamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012.the experimental design was splitplot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were different wheat residue manage...

objective(s): the objective of this study was to investigate the antibacterial activities of magnesium oxide nanoparticles (mgo np) alone or in combination with other antimicrobials (nisin and heat) against escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus in milk.materials and methods: first, the combined effect of nisin and mgo nanoparticles was investigated in milk. then the combined effect of nisi...

in this study, an effort has been made to determine the most important risk factors of tuberculosis (tb) in district mardan. a total of 645 cases were examined, and their personal and medical data were collected. for each case, the phenomenon of tb was studied in relation to different risk factors. statistical techniques of logistic regression and backward elimination procedure were used to ana...
