The knowledge generated by this stream has increased the wine industry’s capacity for meeting wine specification and consumer expectations and improving profitability. In particular, this stream was undertaken to provide the Australian wine industry with an improved understanding of structures, measurement, formation and function of phenolic compounds in red and white grapes and wines. Compound...

Patients and methods Following groups were examined: Patients with the new diagnosis of CPS (n = 16), patients with active JIA (n = 17) and 25 age and sex matched healthy children (median age 15, range 11–18 years). In each individual a trained physiotherapist assessed: hypermobile joints (Beighton score), painful points (MPPS), stability (balance test), walking (plain, stairs), limitation of j...

This paper addresses extreme cases of colour imbalance in stereoscopic media where the intensity range of one view exceeds the valid range causing image burnout in the degraded view. In previous work we proposed to use colour and texture information from the other well-exposed view to interpolate the degraded view. The texture interpolation is done in the gradient domain by solving the Poisson ...

We report the synthesis of nanostructured tungsten trioxide (WO3) films and their electrochromic characteristics. Plate-like monoclinic WO3 nanostructures were grown directly on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass substrates by a simple and low-cost crystal-seed-assisted hydrothermal method. The growth mechanism of the film is investigated. HRTEM analysis reveals the single crystalline quality of th...

Many iron fortificants have problems of imparting unacceptable colour and taste to the food product, decreasing the stability and bioavailability of iron. In this study, a novel method of developing a bioavailable iron fortificant is presented. Chelation and encapsulation are used to preserve iron in ferrous state, and also to minimize the unacceptable colour changes imparted by the fortificant...

Here we evaluated the levels of lipid oxidation products, fatty acids, ascorbic acid and colour Porphyra Ulva after oven-drying at 40 °C, during subsequent storage for ?370 days under light, semi-light dark conditions. Part seaweed was pre-soaked in freshwater or pre-coated with a whey protein mixture. Controls consisted freeze-dried seaweeds. Throughout there moderate development oxidation-der...

Since C^C* cyclometalated Pt(II) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have been identified as potential emitter materials in organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs), very promising results regarding quantum yields, colour and stability have been presented. Herein, we report on four nitrile substituted complexes with a chelating NHC ligand (1-(4-cyanophenyl)-3-isopropyl-1H-benzo[d]...

Optical frequency combs have become an essential tool for distance metrology, showing great advantages compared with traditional laser interferometry. However, there is not yet an appropriate method for air refractive index correction to ensure the high performance of such techniques when they are applied in air. In this study, we developed a novel heterodyne interferometry technique based on t...
