Effect of functional oils on the immune response of broilers challenged with Eimeria spp.
Animal, 2019 Infection with Eimeria sp. results in the activation of multiple facets of the host immune system; the use of phytogenics can modulate the inflammatory response and improve the performance of the challenged animal.

Enhanced voltage generation through electrolyte flow on liquid-filled surfaces. [PDF]
, 2018 The generation of electrical voltage through the flow of an electrolyte over a charged surface may be used for energy transduction. Here, we show that enhanced electrical potential differences (i.e., streaming potential) may be obtained through the flow ...

Methanolysis of Castor Oil and Parametric Optimization [PDF]
Procedia Engineering, 2016 AbstractThe rate of transesterification reaction is very slow as oil is sparingly soluble in methanol. In the present work, castor oil as non-edible oil source was investigated for the synthesis of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). To enhance transesterification reaction, purified castor oil was treated with microwave energy prior to alkaline ...

Spreading of Fluids on Solids Under Pressure: Effect of Slip [PDF]
, 2010 Spreading of different types of fluid on substrates under an impressed force is an interesting problem. Here we study spreading of four fluids, having different hydrophilicity and viscosity on two substrates - glass and perspex, under an external force ...

A new dielectric effect in viscous liquids
, 2013 An accurate experimental and theoretical study has been performed about a phenomenon, not previously reported in the literature, occurring in highly viscous liquids: the formation of a definite pipe structure induced by the passage of a heavy body, this ...

Biopolymer-based structuring of liquid oil into soft solids and oleogels using water-continuous emulsions as templates [PDF]
, 2015 Physical trapping of a hydrophobic liquid oil in a matrix of water-soluble biopolymers was achieved using a facile two-step process by first formulating a surfactant-free oil-in-water emulsion stabilized by biopolymers (a protein and a polysaccharide ...

Anisotropic Wetting Property of Superhydrophobic Surfaces and Electrokinetic Flow on Liquid-Filled Surfaces [PDF]
, 2019 Understanding the wetting property of rough surface is critical in guiding droplets and novel superhydrophobic surface design. The Cassie-Baxter model and Wenzel model are always used to describe the totally non-wetting and completely wetting states ...

Nematicidal activity of plant extracts against the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita [PDF]
, 2009 Nematicidal activity of extracts from plants was assayed against Meloidogyne incognita. In laboratory assays extracts from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L), clove (Syzygium aromaticum L), betelvine (Piper betle L), and sweet flag (Acorus calamus L) were ...
