This study investigated the effect of added freeze-dried mulberry fruit juice (FDMJ) (1, 3 and 5%) on the antioxidant activity and fermented characteristic of yogurt during refrigerated storage. A decrease in pH of yogurt and increase in acidity was observed during fermentation. The yogurts with FDMJ exhibited faster rate of pH reduction than control. Initial lactic acid bacteria count of yogur...

The temperature and pressure dependence of the addition reaction of ethyl methyl ketone (EMK) with HO2 radical has been calculated using the master equation method employing conventional transition state theory estimates for the microcanonical rate coefficients in the temperature range of 600-1600 K. Geometries, frequencies, and hindrance potentials were obtained at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level ...

In order to develop FeCrAl-based ODS alloy tubing with the coarse, high aspect ratio, appropriately oriented grain structures likely to deliver enhanced high temperature (1100C) hoop creep strength compared to conventionally formed ODS alloy tubing, flow forming techniques were explored in a European funded programme. The evolution of microstructure in PM2000 alloy tubing formed by warm flow fo...

In this study, we examined the in vivo osteogenic differentiation of human embryoid bodies (hEBs) by using an injectable in situ-forming hydrogel. A solution containing MPEG-b-(polycaprolactone-ran-polylactide) (MCL) and hEBs was easily prepared at room temperature. The MCL solution with hEBs and osteogenic factors was injected into nude mice and developed into in situ-forming hydrogels at the ...

Lightweight materials have been studied widely at present. Because weight reduction while maintaining functional requirements is one of the major goals in industries in order to save materials, energy and costs, etc. As the lightest structural alloys, magnesium alloys offer great potential to displace the most commonly used materials, because its density is about 2/3 of aluminum and 1/4 of stee...

 Nowadays, light weight and high strength metals are being used in various industries such as automotive and aerospace. Using aluminum-magnesium alloys is an efficient way to reduce the weight of a specific part. These alloys have poor formability in room temperature thus they should be formed at elevated temperature. Warm hydroforming and hot metal gas forming are conventional methods to form ...
