Pharmacognostical and preliminary phytochemical studies of Triphala churnam were carried out. The churnam of triphala consists of equal quantities of deseeded fruits of Terminalia chebula, Terminalia bellerica and Emblica officinalis. Triphala is exclusively used in more than 200 drug formulations in Indian system of Medicine. The present study involved the pharmacognostical evaluation of Triph...

Extractive reserves constitute an innovative approach to match conservation and development objectives, which were originally envisaged as part of a land struggle by forest dwellers in Brazil. In spite of the idea's popularity and the attempts to apply the concept to different tropical regions, there has been little analysis of the combined conservation and development performance of extractive...

The role of the peritrophic envelope in the non-absorption of three allelochemicals ingested by generalist grasshoppers was examined. This study tested the hypothesis that the association of lipophilic and amphiphilic allelochemicals with lipid aggregates (mixed micelles) reduces their permeability through the peritrophic envelope, a process similar to extractive ultrafiltration. Each of three ...

−− The aim of this work is to simulate and analyze an extractive distillation process (extractive distillation and recovery columns) for the separation of Tetrahydrofuran (THF)-Water azeotropic mixture using Aspen Plus® and Aspen Split simulators. Calculation of vapor liquid equilibrium of Tetrahydrofuran–Water–Entrainer system was done using the NRTL model, which binary interaction parameters ...

Extractive text summarization is the process of selecting relevant sentences from a collection of documents, perhaps only a single document, and arranging such sentences in a purposeful way to form a summary of this collection. The question arises just how good extractive summarization can ever be. Without generating language to express the gist of a text – its abstract – can we expect to make ...

Extractive butanol fermentation with non-ionic surfactant, a recently explored area, has shown promising results with several advantages but is relatively less investigated. This work reports the extractive fermentation with selected non-ionic surfactants (L62 and L62D) to enhance butanol production using a high-butanol producing strain (Clostridium beijerinckii MCMB 581). Biocompatibility stud...

Most extractive summarization methods focus on the main body of the document from which sentences need to be extracted. However, the gist of the document may lie in side information, such as the title and image captions which are often available for newswire articles. We propose to explore side information in the context of single-document extractive summarization. We develop a framework for si...

B. Gajdzik, The Silesian University of Technology, Faculty of Materials Science and Metallurgy, Katowice, Poland The publication presents the most recent results of research conducted in metallurgical enterprises which build Polish metallurgical sector. Three main areas of restructuring were tested, that is repair restructuring, development restructuring and adaptation restructuring. For each t...

Naizabekov, Mining and Metallurgy Faculty, Rudny Industrial Institute, Rudny, Kazakhstan In the present research, equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was conducted. The defectness degree of the alloy for one pass and maximum strain was determined. Ultra fine grained...
