Restaurateurs often place a lemon slice on the rim of a beverage glass, or afloat in the beverage, as a flavor-enhancer or a decorative garnish. The handling of the lemons before their placement in the beverage may not follow sanitary procedures. The study reported here investigated whether beverage lemon slices contain microbial contamination that could be consumed by a restaurant patron. Swab...

Non-trivial patterns of quark and lepton masses and mixings can arise without there being any underlying flavor symmetry that distinguishes among the three families. Two realistic examples are given.

"Dumbo" catfish is a type of that widely consumed and cultivated. It includes the mutiara ( Clarias gariepinus ) growing relatively fast having fairly high nutritional content. can be used as flavor enhancer in form instant broth powder. This research aims to determine formulation best quality powder products using Spray Drying method natural public likes follows Indonesian National Standard. w...

topical drug dosage forms such as ointments and creams can be easily removed through wetting, movement and contact. the new bioadhesive formulations with enhanced local anesthetic effects are needed for topical administration. the adhesive capacity of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (hpmc) was determined by measuring the maximum detachment force and the adhesion work with an auto peeling tester. ...

the aim of the present study was to develop and investigate the feasibility of delivering nebivolol as a transdermal patch by iontophoresis. the passive and electrically assisted transdermal delivery of nebivolol hydrochloride by iontophoresis will improve the therapeutic efficacy and overcome the difficulties raised in oral drug delivery. because of its extensive hepatic metabolism and low dos...

A variant of a warped extra dimension model is presented. It is based on 5D minimal flavor violation, in which the only sources of flavor breaking are two 5D anarchic Yukawa matrices. These matrices also control the bulk masses, which are responsible for the resulting flavor hierarchy. The theory flows to a next to minimal flavor violation model where flavor violation is dominantly coming from ...
