in the recent decade, special attention is paid to reverse logistic due to economic benefits of recovery and recycling of used products as well as environmental legislation and social concerns. on the other hand، many researches claim that separately and sequential planning of forward and reverse logistic causes sub-optimality. effective transport activities are also one of the most important c...

A rapid, sensitive and reproducible HPLC method using amperometric detector was developed and validated for the analysis of clarithromycin in human plasma. The separation was achieved on a monolithic silica column (MZ- C8 125×4.0 mm) using acetonitrile- methanol-potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (40:6:54,v/v), with pH of 7.5, as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min. The assay enabl...

The replacement of petrochemicals with biobased chemicals requires efficient bioprocesses, biocatalysis, and product recovery. Biocatalysis (e.g., enzyme conversion and fermentation) offers an attractive alternative to chemical processing because biocatalysis utilize renewable feedstocks under benign reaction conditions. One class of chemical products that could be produced in large volumes by ...

The recovery of inulin, a naturally occurring beta (2-->1)-fructan isolated from Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.), in the small intestine of man was studied in ileostomy subjects. The ileostomists were given a low-dietary-fibre diet based on white wheat bread and virtually free of inulin, and the same diet with the addition of 10 g and 30 g inulin product respectively, and the reco...

he last decade has seen the development of iteratively decodable error-control codes of unprecedented power, whose large coding gains enable reliable communication at very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). A by-product of this trend is that timing recovery must be performed at an SNR lower than ever before. Conventional timing recovery ignores the presence of error-control coding and is thus doo...

In the last two decades, product recovery systems have received increasing attention due to several reasons such as new governmental regulations and economic advantages. One of the most important activities of these systems is to assign returned products to suitable reverse manufacturing alternatives. Uncertainty of returned products in terms of quantity, quality, and time complicates the decis...

Background It has been previously shown that supplementation with a commercial food-based bio-active peptide product (Bio-GroTM) may improve resistance training capacity and enhance recovery between repeated bouts of strenuous exercise. It has been suggested that enhanced workout capacity during training sessions and improved recovery from exercise may enhance chronic training adaptions, such a...

For the quantitative analysis of phthalates in polymers, a thermal desorption (TD)-GC-MS method was compared with solvent extraction (SE)-GC-MS methods which require the long pretreatment procedures using large amount of harmful organic solvents. Calibration curves of TD-GC-MS showed good linearity (r(2)>0.9997) and low method detection limit (<30mg/kg with 9.0% RSD). Quantification results for...
