The cell growth and product formation kinetics of anaerobic biohydrogen production by mixed anaerobic cultures was investigated using unstructured models in the present study. They described the realtionship between biomass growth and product formation in the hydrogen production process. Experimental results show that the Logistic model and LeudekingPiret model could be adopted to describe the ...

We present an analytical treatment of a set of coupled kinetic equations that governs the self-assembly of filamentous molecular structures. Application to the case of protein aggregation demonstrates that the kinetics of amyloid growth can often be dominated by secondary rather than by primary nucleation events. Our results further reveal a range of general features of the growth kinetics of f...

the ability of whey protein concentrate (wpc) (1% w/v) and/or honey (2% and 4% w⁄v) to improve lactic acid bacteria (streptococcus thermophilus and lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) growth and viability in yoghurt during a 21 day period of storage was investigated. another focus of this study was to examine fermentation kinetics and post-acidification rates through ph and lactic acid...

RATIONALE Myocardial function is enhanced by adoptive transfer of human cardiac progenitor cells (hCPCs) into a pathologically challenged heart. However, advanced age, comorbidities, and myocardial injury in patients with heart failure constrain the proliferation, survival, and regenerative capacity of hCPCs. Rejuvenation of senescent hCPCs will improve the outcome of regenerative therapy for a...

Experiments were carried out in which the dependence of the fractional softening on temperature, time and strain rate was determined in a 304H stainless steel. Three prestrain ranges were identified pertaining to three different post-deformation softening behaviors: 1) prestraining to below the DRX critical strain: strongly strain dependent softening by SRX alone with softening kinetics control...

Quantum dots of CdS with hexagonal phase were prepared at relatively low temperature (60 oC) and short time by micro-emulsion (O/W) under ultrasound. This study was focused on the particle size distribution and the growth kinetics. The particle size distribution obtained from the optical absorption edge. It was relatively symmetrical with sonication time. In addition, an agreement was observed ...

This paper presents both, the design and the development of a monitoring and control system via web for a closed microalgae crop and the results that were gotten using the strain Haematococcus pluvialis. The research was done at Sabana University (Colombia) and it aims to quantify the kinetic growth associated to the increment of biomass and the development of red pigment inside the cells when ...

Abstract: titanium sheets in pure molten aluminum at 750 and X-Ray Diffraction Analysis results, TiAlintermetallic layer thickness increases slowly at primary stages. After that an enhanced growth rate occurs due to layercracking and disruption. Presumably, reaction starts with solving titanium into the molten aluminum causing intitanium super saturation and TiAlintermetallic layer which conseq...

The Bi-2223 phase growth was studied on the view growth Kinetics and described by using suggested kinetic equations, and the kinetics parameters of the 2223 growth were experimentally determined. The precursor particle size effect on Bi-2223 phase growth was studied, as well. Precursors in this experiment were made by four different techniques with different particle sizes, and samples were sin...
