This study examined if pre-germination altered the water content and water activity, contents of phytate, total phenolic, (±)-catechin, quercetin and total antioxidant capacity of almond  (Prunus dulcis)kernel. Raw almond kernels were submerged for 15 hours in water, 0.02 mol dm-3 phosphate buffer solution (pH 5.0) and 0.02 mol dm-3 phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) at 25 and 40ºC, respectivel...

This paper is devoted to the study of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We focus on multipliers of reproducing kernel Banach and Hilbert spaces. In particular, we try to extend this concept and prove some related theorems. Moreover, we focus on reproducing kernels in vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. In particular, we extend reproducing kernels to relative reproducing kernels an...

Introduction: The quality of CT images used for treatment planning of cancer patients is an important issue in accurate outlining of the tumor volume and organs at risk. Different kernels in CT scanner systems are available for improving the image quality. Applying these kernels  on   CT  images  will  change   the   CT  numbers  and  electron   density   of   tissues, conse...

oxidative stability of walnut (juglansregia l.) was evaluated over a period of 1 year storage in various conditions. the whole walnuts, walnut kernels, walnut chopped kernels, walnut kernels packaged in polyethylene (pet) under vacuum and poly propylene (pp) contain of co2 were kept in a normal condition (temperature, 19-30˚с and relative humidity (rh), 35-45%). the whole walnuts and walnut ker...

individual grain weight of wheat kernels differs with their positions on a spike. cultivation practices (such as fertilizer nitrogen and plant growth regulators application) can be used to improve weight of basal and distal kernels. for this purpose, two experiments based on randomized complete block design were carried out with three replications. the aim of this research was to study the mech...

after harvesting, pistachio nuts are generally kept in storage before being exported. during handling, thenuts are exposed to external forces that cause mechanical damage to them. the increase of the mechanicaldamage is a function of storage conditions, especially temperature. this research investigated the effect ofstorage temperature (25, 5, -5, -15°c), on the mechanical properties of pistach...
