Starch is one of the food sources that can be extracted from cereals, roots, tubers and stem. Sago palm (metroxylon spp.) example starch source. The efficiency extraction process depends on mechanical properties material. This study was conducted to determine angle repose between grated sago kinetic friction contact surface material machine. (θ) determined by using a cone shape hopper attached ...

Introduction: Laboratory measurements of meteorite reflectance spectra rarely match telescopic observations of asteroid reflectance spectra due to the process (es) of space weathering, which rapidly darken and redden asteroid surface on million-year timescales [e.g. 1-2]. While most main belt asteroids appear weathered, a fraction of near-Earth asteroids (the Q-types) appear unweathered – possi...

Abstract Purpose The discrete element method (DEM) can be used in agricultural fields such as crop sowing, harvesting, and transportation. Nevertheless, modeling complex crops appropriately shaped particles remains challenging. of the calibration input parameters are important for simulating realistic behaviors using DEM. Methods In this study, particle models representing morphological charact...

Bay leaf (Syzygium polyanthum (Wight.) contains polyphenolic compounds that are beneficial in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia by reducing Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) levels. The dosage form mucoadhesive microgranules is able to prolong active substance contact time with mucosa give better therapeutic effect. This study aims make bay extract different polymers Hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellu...

To ensure safety when transporting dangerous goods, it is important to specify the flow properties of respective solid filling substance packagings. For this purpose, angle repose currently used for UN approvals in Germany. Measurements were carried out on 12 powdery or granular substances applying measuring methods customary test centres. The results differ significantly from each other. In ad...

Since orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) of tramadol hydrochloride are not available in the market, so an attempt has been taken to formulate and evaluate ODT preparation hydrochloride. In this present work, direct compression was technique used for preparing using superdisintegrants like croscarmellose sodium, sodium starch glycolate crospovidone at different concentrations. Prepared formula...
