This study shows that incorporating aqueous cinnamon extract into oil cakes improves antioxidant activity, texture, and consumer acceptability. Concentrations of 0.20% and 0.25% significantly boosted total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity while enhancing texture and lowering fat and carbohydrate levels. Cinnamaldehyde, the main compound in the

Second order perturbed Heisenberg Hamiltonian of Fe3O4 ultra-thin films [PDF]
Due to the wide range of applications, theoretical models of Fe3O4 films are found to be important. Ultra thin Fe3O4 films with ferrite structure have been theoretically investigated using second order perturbed modified Heisenberg Hamiltonian. Matrices for ultra thin films with two and three spin layers are presented in this manuscript. Total magnetic
