the main purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of air drying, freeze drying and vacuum drying methods on viscosity and gelation of lipidium perfoliatum seed gum. results showed that the viscosity values of samples varied from 0.31 to 1.26 pa.s at (shear rate = 12.23 s-1) and control sample gum exhibited the highest viscosity. apparent viscosity was decreased by all of drying...

gums are the most important stabilizers that are used in ice cream and other frozen dairy dessert industries. in this study, effect of different levels of guar gum (0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3%) and arabic gum (0, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5%) on rheological behavior of frozen yogurt was investigated. the rheological behavior of samples showed that all samples exhibit shear thinning behavior and power law model f...

The wide-spread occurrence of mannans and fucosans in nature makes it not improbable that some of these vegetable gums may in fact consist in part at least of fuco-mannans. In general the isolation and identification of two or more sugars from a mixture is often fraught with experimental difficulties, particularly if the material is available only in small amounts. Any simple procedure applicab...

in the recent years, herbal oral hygiene products have gained increasing attention. the aim of this study was to assess the effects of three types of mastic gums on the level of mutans streptococci, lactobacilli and ph of the saliva.forty-two students in the age range of 20-30 years were divided into three parallel groups; each of them separately used pure mastic gum, xylitol mastic gum and pro...

According to the Central Statistics Agency, percentage of smokers among Indonesians aged 15 years is relatively high. It was 32.20%, 29.03%, and 28.69%, in 2018, 2019, 2020 respectively. Cigarettes contain tar that changes into a solid builds up colored plaque when entering mouth. Perpetual cigarette smoke causes brown pigmentation on mucosa, known as smoker's melanosis. Smoker's melanosis abun...

AIMS To highlight an uncommon but characteristic gingival lesion associated with Wegener's granulomatosis, emphasising the presence of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, microabscesses, and multinucleate giant cells; and the paucity of the currently accepted histopathological criteria of Wegener's granulomatosis--namely necrosis, vasculitis, and granulomata. METHODS The histopathological feat...
