Pistachio green kernel, is obtained by removing the red testa of around the whole kernel. In this study, the suitable peeling conditions for removing the testa of the kernel were determined using hot water in five termperature levels of 75, 80, 85, 90, and 95°C and diffetent hot water immersion times of 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 minutes in riped and unripe samples. Quality factors including the number...

In this note, I review some basic properties of the Hopfield model. I closely follow Chapter 2 of Herz, Krogh & Palmer (1991) which is an excellent introductory textbook on the theory of neural networks. I motivate the mean field analysis of the stochastic Hopfield model slightly differently than Herz, Krogh & Palmer (1991) and my derivations are a little longer, filling in some of the gaps in ...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to identify independent predictors of reoperation after successful resection of discrete subaortic stenosis (DSS). BACKGROUND Recurrence of DSS has been reported to range from 0% to 55% of patients. Factors associated with recurrence have not been adequately defined. METHODS Patients were included if they had a diagnosis of DSS, normal segmental cardiac anatomy, ...

We present a case of 3-year-old Caucasian boy who developed monthly cyclic attacks of skin peeling of the palms and soles over 1.5 years. The skin peeling was associated with hypercalciuria. No mutation was present in TGM5 and CSTA genes, but the typical clinical picture and the biopsy from flaccid blisters on the feet confirmed the acral peeling skin syndrome (APSS). The possible associations ...

specific chromosome regions (Mock, 1972). The discordant results found by different investigators for the same Recombination values in plants are influenced by genetic factors, chromosome region may be attributed to genotype 3 environmental conditions, and their interactions. In soybean, Glycine environment interaction, chromosome structure differmax (L.) Merr., the cosegregation method to prod...

Salicylic acid has been used to treat various skin disorders for more than 2,000 years. The ability of salicylic acid to exfoliate the stratum corneum makes it a good agent for peeling. In particular, the comedolytic property of salicylic acid makes it a useful peeling agent for patients with acne. Once considered as a keratolytic agent, the role of salicylic acid as a desmolytic agent, because...

Purpose. To assess functional and morphological alterations following video-documented surgery for epiretinal membranes. Methods. Forty-two patients underwent video-documented 23-gauge vitrectomy with peeling of epiretinal (ERM) and inner limiting membrane (ILM). Patient assessment was performed before and 3 and 6 months including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), slit lamp biomicroscopy, SD...
