1. THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF WHITE BEAN GRAINS FOR DIFFERENT EQUILIBRIUM WATER CONTENTS
ABSTRACT In drying processes and in the storage of agricultural products, the study of thermodynamic properties is indispensable in the search for solutions to issues of stability and optimization of the conditions of agro-industrial processes. The aim of this work was to determine hygroscopic equilibrium isotherms and study the thermodynamic properties of w

2. SEWAGE PERFORMANCE OF A NEW TYPE OF FLAP FILTER
ABSTRACT The drainage performance of a mesh filter determines the water consumption degree of the filter and the efficiency of the next work cycle. Through analysis, we found that the influent flow rate and the sediment content of the influent were important influencing factors. This experiment focused on the drainage time, pressure difference, and cleanline

3. Spatial Distribution and Pollution Assessment of Trace Elements Pb, Cu, Ni, Fe and As in the Surficial Water of Staring Bay, Indonesia
Staring Bay has long been used by the local community for fisheries and fishing activities; however, the rapid population growth and industrial activities around the bay in recent years are predicted to contribute significantly to the increase of waste entering the bay. This particular study was aimed to provide baseline levels of trace elements Pb, Cu, Ni,

4. Antibacterial activity of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/ε-polylysine packaging films and the effect on longan fruit
Abstract Biodegradable and antimicrobial films via combing ε-polylysine (ε-PL) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a promising material for food packaging. We prepared the ε-PL/ PVA films with the ε-PL content of 0%, 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% (wt., relative to PVA) by casting method and their physical and chemical properties were characterized. SEM indicated the surf

5. FITTINGS OF ADSORPTION ISOTHERM MODELS AND THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF URUNDAY SEEDS
ABSTRACT This study aimed to obtain and evaluate thermodynamic properties and hygroscopic equilibrium isotherms of urunday seeds as a function of air relative humidity and temperature, as well as identify the best-fitted mathematical models for adsorption phenomenon. A static-gravimetric method was used to obtain hygroscopic equilibrium moisture content. See

6. Regenerated Cellulose Membrane from Peanut Shell for Biodiesel Purification
Biodiesel purification by water washing has been proved to be an unattractive process from an economic and environmental point of view. In this work, we propose the use of regenerated cellulose membranes from peanut shell as an alternative in the biodiesel purification. The preparation of the membranes was optimized from a central composite design, resulting

7. Application of a New Validated HPLC-PDA Method for Simultaneous Determination of Curcumin and Melatonin in Hyaluronic Acid-Coated Nanoemulsions
In this study, a high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detector (HPLC-PDA) method was developed and validated to simultaneously determine curcumin (CUR) and melatonin (MEL) in hyaluronic acid-coated nanoemulsions, a novel targetable delivery system to CD44 receptors overexpressed in many types of tumors. Chromatographic analyses were p

8. SORPTION ISOTHERMS AND ISOSTERIC HEAT OF PERICARP AND ENDOSPERM TISSUES OF ARABICA COFFEE FRUIT
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate and model the hygroscopic equilibrium and isosteric heat curves of pericarp and endosperm tissues of arabica (Coffea arabica) coffee fruit, in different temperature and relative humidity conditions. Sorption isotherms were drawn under temperatures from 20°C to 70°C and relative humidity ranging between 10% and

9. Morphological, phytochemical and anti-hyperglycemic evaluation of Brachychiton populneus
Abstract Brachychiton populneus (Schott & Endl.) R.Br., Malvaceae, is one of five Brachychiton species cultivated in Egypt. Little information was found concerning the morphological, phytochemical and biological investigations of B. populneus. Morphological investigations of B. populneus were performed on fresh and dried leaves. Air-dried, ground leafy branc

10. Physiological responses of Eucalyptus urophylla young plants treated with biostimulant under water deficit
Resumo Os bioestimulantes consistem em uma mistura de reguladores de crescimento que, quando aplicados nas plantas, atuam no equilíbrio hormonal, melhorando seu desenvolvimento. Stimulate® é um bioestimulante composto por ácido indolbutírico (0,005%), cinetina (0,009%) e ácido giberélico (0,005%), que promove o crescimento das raízes, melhora a absor

11. Secagem na viabilidade e desenvolvimento embrionário de sementes de Ilex paraguariensis
Resumo A germinação de erva-mate tem sido apontada como baixa, irregular e lenta, com diferentes graus de dormência, tornando a produção de mudas um grande desafio. Estudos destinados a esclarecer os principais mecanismos de dormência presentes em sementes de erva-mate são de grande importância, porém, escassos. Diante disso, objetivou-se avaliar os

12. Long-term behavior of mortars produced with sulfide-bearing aggregates
ABSTRACT The variety of sulfides (inorganic compounds formed by combining sulfur with a metal element) presented in earth crust is not small, which makes it difficult to avoid the use of sulfide-bearing aggregates in the concrete, especially in places where another source of material is non-existent or economically impracticable, as is the case of dams.
