This study was carried out to investigate the effects of hydrated potato starch on the quality of low-fat ttoekgalbi (Korean traditional patty) packaged in modified atmosphere conditions during storage. The ttoekgalbi was prepared from 53.2% lean beef, 13.9% lean pork, 9.3% pork fat, and 23.6% other ingredients. Two low-fat ttoekgalbi treatments were prepared by substituting pork fat with hydra...

The effects of mixed gas annealing ambient of O2 and N2 on electrical and optical characteristics of p-type Mg-doped GaN grown by MOCVD were investigated at various annealing condition. A mixed gas ambient of 80% O2 and 20% N2 at 750°C for 2 minutes was found to be an optimum annealing condition with improvements on activation efficiency of Mg acceptor compared with annealing in pure O2 or N2 g...

The U.S. Navy recommends submarine escape for depths down to 600 fsw, with deeper escapes entailing the risks of decompression sickness, nitrogen (N2) narcosis and CNS oxygen (O2) toxicity. However, the escape equipment, including the submarine escape and immersion equipment and the escape trunk, could probably function even at 1,000 fsw. Here we report a theoretical analysis of the risks of bo...

Samples of freshly harvested corn and remoistened corn were inoculated with Asphergillus flavus and stored for 4 weeks at about 27 C in air and three modified atmospheres. Aflatoxins and fat acidity were determined weekly. Corn stored in the modified atmospheres did not accumulate over 15 mug of total aflatoxins per kg. Corn from the high CO2 treatment (61.7 per cent CO2, 8.7 per cent O2, and...

The vibrationally inelastic scattering of Rydberg H atoms (n = 30-50) from N2 and O2 at E(coll) = 1.84 eV was studied as a function of laboratory deflection angle. On average, 4 times more vibrational excitation was observed in collisions with O2 than with N2. Vibrational excitation of O2 results largely from collisions in which an electron is briefly transferred from O2 to the proton core, whi...

N2 fixation by Streptomyces thermoautotrophicus follows the equation N2 + 4-12MgATP + 8H+ + 8e- --> 2NH3 + H2 + 4-12MgADP + 4-12Pi and exhibits features which are not obvious in the diazotrophic bacteria studied so far. The reaction is coupled to the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) by a molybdenum-containing CO dehydrogenase that transfers the electrons derived from CO oxidation to O2, thereb...

In 2020, energy-related CO2 emissions reached 31.5 Gt, leading to an unprecedented atmospheric level of 412.5 ppm. Hydrogen blending in natural gas (NG) is a solution for maximizing clean energy utilization and enabling long-distance H2 transport through pipelines. However, insufficient comprehension concerning the combustion characteristics NG, specifically when blended with high proportion hy...

In this study, the combustion characteristics of pine needles, needle humus, and co-combustion these two types biomass with coal were compared. addition, optimization performance coal/humus was assisted through following studies: (i) coal/pine humus studied under four different oxygen concentrations (N2, 10%O2/90%N2, 20%O2/80%N2, 40%O2/60%N2); (ii) synergistic effect between during also investi...
