The successful isolation of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis from the stool of an asymptomatic family member of a patient with yersinia septicemia is presented. Cold enrichment permitted the isolation after 4 weeks of refrigerator incubatio,.

The nutritive compositions and oxidative stabilities of processed avocado pastes at ambient (30±1 ̊C, RH80%) and refrigerator (5-6 o C) storage temperatures were evaluated and studied. Avocado pulp was blended with ingredients, chilled, kneaded and shaped. For oxidative studies varying concentrations and combinations of Ascorbyl palmitate (AP) and Propyl gallate (PG) were blended with the pulp. ...

Solar energy is the most abundant source of energy available in our country. The power of the sun can be efficiently used to harness energy for solving our energy needs. The void of not having efficient technology to tap this abundant energy reservoir has led to search for better technologies and more varied applications. Our primary focus in this paper would be on utilizing solar energy for do...

PURPOSE Data regarding the recommended maximum duration that refrigerated medications available in hospital pharmacies may be stored safely at room temperature were collected and compiled in a tabular format. METHODS During May and June of 2006, the prescribing information for medications labeled for refrigeration as obtained from the supplier were reviewed for data addressing room-temperatur...

We study coupled quantum systems as the working media of thermodynamic machines. Under a suitable phase-space transformation, the coupled systems can be expressed as a composition of independent subsystems. We find that for the coupled systems, the figures of merit, that is the efficiency for engine and the coefficient of performance for refrigerator, are bounded (both from above and from below...

This work focuses on a solar and AC power supply unit for refrigerator. The two sources of supply, an alternating current each connected to automatic changeover used switch the refrigerator unit. both charge battery interchangeably through inverter depending source in use. consists store energy needed keep constant refrigeration even when there is no supply; transformer which step up voltage su...

background and objective: quality control is one of the most important components in order to improve quality assurance in laboratories during analytical steps. for this purpose, coefficient of variation plays an important role. due to the fast improvement in technology, application of inferential statistics for the comparisons of laboratory techniques, including instrument and chemicals and fa...

The simple evaluation model utilizing the selective parameters for the preliminary analysis for magnetic refrigerator (MR) development is proposed in this paper. The magnetocaloric effect and the related magnetic field applied for MR are also discussed. The model and system analysis following the algorithm expressions and the material characteristics required for MR are arranged and derived in ...

We describe a simple and solvable model of a device that-like the "neat-fingered being" in Maxwell's famous thought experiment-transfers energy from a cold system to a hot system by rectifying thermal fluctuations. In order to accomplish this task, our device requires a memory register to which it can write information: the increase in the Shannon entropy of the memory compensates the decrease ...
