in the current paper, we have studied the effect of dark energy on for-mation where dark energy exists in the background. for this purpose, we used both wmap9 and planck data to study how the radius changes with redshift in these mod-els. we used different data sets to fix the cosmological parameters to obtain a solution for a spherical region under collapse. the mechanism of structure formation f...

Fermentation is the most time consuming step in the production of beer and therefore the effective use of fermentation vessels is a crucial element in brewing economy. One means of increasing the productivity of a batch process is to convert it to a continuous one. Experiments in continuous fermentation emerged during the 1950s and 1960s, but by the end of 1970s most of them had been closed dow...

Immobilized fermentation has several advantages over traditional suspended fermentation, including simple and continuous operation, improved fermentation performance and reduced cost. Carrier is the most adjustable element among three elements of immobilized fermentation, including carrier, bacteria and environment. In this study, we characterized carrier roughness and surface properties of fou...

Lactobacillus plantarum is used for fermentation of fish products, meat and milk. However, the utilization of these bacteria in egg processing has not been done. This study was designed to evaluate the potential of fermented egg albumen as a functional food that is rich in angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitors activity (ACE-inhibitor activity) and is antihypertensive. A completely randomiz...

Menaquinone-7 was produced by fermentation mainly using Bacillus subtilis species. Due to the low concentration of menaquinone-7 in fermentation processes and the associated expense of recovering the menaquinone-7, it was desirable to improve the fermentation concentration. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of fed-batch glycerol addition in the production of menaquinone-7 during...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a glucophilic yeast, preferring glucose to fructose. During fermentation, glucose is consumed at a higher rate than fructose, and the proportion of fructose increases as fermentation progresses. This can lead to imbalances in the wines, and under the stressful conditions found at the end of fermentation, make it more difficult for wine yeast to utilize this nonprefer...

Due to the numerous applications of lipases in industry, there is a need to study their characteristics, because lipases obtained from different sources may present different properties. The aim of this work was to accomplish the partial characterization of lipases obtained through submerged fermentation and solid-state fermentation by two species of Aspergillus. Fungal strains were isolated fr...

Ethanol production from mixtures of sweet stem sorghum juice and sorghum grain was investigated under normal and very high gravity (VHG) fermentation conditions. Fermentation was carried out using Saccharomyces cere6isiae yeast strain N96 at 30°C. For VHG fermentation, sucrose was added to the sweet sorghum juice to obtain a concentration of 34 g per 100 ml of dissolved solids. Fermentation was...

apoptosis plays an important role in many pathological processes of the central nervous system. the neuroprotective effect of periodic fasting (pf) in contrast to severe fasting or starvation has been suggested. however, these beneficial effects seem to depend on the type and duration of the used feeding protocol. this study was designed to evaluate the effects of different pf protocols on the ...
