a fully instrumented air conditioning laboratory unit capable of controlling drying air temperature and humidity integrated with an instantaneous weighing thin layer drying system was used to investigate the thin layer drying behavior and desorption equilibrium moisture content of canola (brassica napus l.). to this aim, freshly harvested canola samples with moisture content of about 12±0.5% (d...

in this work, the effect of presence of the sodium tripolyphosphate (stpp), as an inorganic salt, on improving the performance of polyamide (pa) thin layer membranes has been studied. characterization analyses confirmed the presence of the salt on the whole surface structure of the thin layer. different salt loadings resulted in different fluxes and cu (ii) rejections. the thin layer containing...

objective: during recent years, opium consumption has increased among iranian diabetic men. the belief that opium consumption can control or even eradicate dm is increasing. this study was conducted to compare the blood sugar, hba1c, lipid profile and the frequency of diabetes complications in male type ii diabetic patient with and without opium consumption. materials and methods: two hundred t...

over the past decade, many applications were intended for filtration by membrane technology especially the thin film composite (tfc) membranes. in advanced developments of thin film membranes, an attempt was made to spread a new generation of membranes called thin film nano composite (tfn) membranes. however, in the last generation of tfns, an ultrathin selective film of nanoparticles is coated...

The third member of Weixinnanliu in the west South China Sea develops thin interbeds, and vertical extension fracturing fractures is excessive. Once extend vertically to upper lower aquifers, it easy cause water flooding oil wells, effect after not obvious. present work aims explore longitudinal law Low Permeability Thin Interbed Reservoir based on finite element calculation platform. A three-d...

Porphyrins bearing bulky alkoxyphenyl substituents at two of the four meso-positions and phenyl phosphonates at the other two have been prepared and used as building blocks for layer-by-layer assembly of conductive-glass-supported thin films via zirconium phosphonate chemistry. Thin-film characterization shows that the addition of sterically demanding 2,6-di(n-hexoxy)phenyl substituents to the ...

objective: this study aims to evaluate the antimicrobial activity, phytochemical studies and thin layer chromatography analysis of machine oil, hexane extract of seed oil and methanol extract of presscake& latex of jatropha curcas linn (family euphorbiaceae). materials and methods: j. curcas extracts were subjected to preliminary qualitative phytochemical screening to detect the major phytochem...

This article highlights our recent achievement on directing nanoparticles to selfassemble at the water/oil interface. We demonstrate that the contact angle of 90u is prerequisite for nanoparticles to localize at the interface, which is determined by the terminal groups of the capping ligands. With this peculiar surface wettability, nanoparticles of different sizes and chemical composition may s...

stachys genus with medicinal properties and high polymorphic features has been considered oneof the largest genera of lamiaceae. the aim of this study was to determine the flavonoid patternvariations and flavonoid groups in ten stachys species belonging to two sections; fragilicaulis,and aucheriana. the studied species were collected from natural habitats in iran and analysedfor their flavonoid...

aims: the synthetic colors are preferred by the food industry because of the variety of shades, intensity, uniformity, excellent solubility and stability. they are used in a variety of food products such as dairy products, beverages, baked products, confections and pet foods. food colors may have toxic effects on the human body. this study aimed to examine the amount of synthetic colors in some...
