the aim of this study was to optimize the encapsulation conditions of garlic oil (go) with β-cyclodextrin (go/β-cd) inclusion complex by the co-precipitation method. response surface optimization of encapsulation of go with β–cd was performed with a three-variable, three-level and the optimum conditions were as follows: temperature: 35oc, core/wall: 8/100, and wall/solvent: 5.5/100. the complex...

probiotics are defined as living microorganisms with beneficial effects on the host. probiotics, according to the least negative effect on the body, are considered as a good alternative to chemical drugs. lactobacillus acidophilus is used as a probiotic that is able to reduce cholesterol level in the blood. the effect of various concentrations of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus for enhancing th...

selection of an appropriate model is important for quantifying response of germination rate to temperature and determination of cardinal temperatures. this study was done to evaluate different nonlinear regression models to describe response of germination rate to temperature in medicinal pumpkin, borago and black cumin. the regression models were dent-like, segmented, beta, curvilinear, quadra...

Response surface techniques allow us to combine results from a large number of inexpensive low fidelity analyses with a small number of expensive high fidelity analyses for constructing inexpensive and accurate approximations. The paper demonstrates this approach by constructing approximations to wing bending material weight of a high speed civil transport (HSCT). The approximations employ a la...
