Fish oil dietary supplements and complementary medicines are pitched to play a role of increasing strategic importance in meeting daily requirements of essential nutrients, such as long-chain (≥ C20, LC) omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin D. Recently a new product category, derived from Antarctic krill, has been launched on the omega-3 nutriceutical market. Antarctic krill oil is m...

ABSTRACT Marine oil spill incidents create concerns about human health risks, particularly in nearshore locations such as beaches used for recreation. To improve the timeliness of risk estimates during an spill, we need to expand modelling capacity chemicals (OSCs) from predictions chemical bulk measurements Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) individual concentrations more toxic Polycyclic Arom...

We present a comparative study of certain invariants defined for group actions and their analogues orbifolds. In particular, we prove that Fadell's equivariant category $G$-spaces coincides with the Lusternik-Schnirelmann orbifolds when is finite.

Sustainability in 19 different Arab countries has been studied through investigating the relationship between economic development and energy consumption. Data collected has been studied as a whole (Total countries data) and as segregated data (Oil exporting and Oil importing countries data) i.e. three categories. The regression model used measures the effect of independent and control variable...

Fruit ripeness identification is hard to measure especially when it involves color as main indicator. Suitable color model must be chosen to determine the right color for the ripeness identification. Hue, Saturation and Value (HSV) are proved to be a better choice because it can define the color intensity. Besides, it also helps to choose colors which are similar to the eyes. Manual grading pro...

Three of the major players in the discussion of the production of oil and gas are: (1) government; (2) the oil and gas industry and (3) non-governmental organizations (NGOs). A comparison of contributions from these three sources using a list of positive and negative words from the General Inquirer Category Listings showed that industry provided a very positive message about the production and ...
