Enzymatic modification of cassava starch (Corpoica M-Tai) around the pasting temperature
Cassava starch variety Corpoica – TAI, was modified with a commercial α-amylase, in order to evaluate the effects of temperature, reaction time and enzyme/substrate (E/S) ratio on the degree of hydrolysis, and production of enzymatic modified starches ...

Thermal and Thermomechanical Characterization of Polypropylene-Seed Shell Particles Composites
The use of plant waste, such ashusks, fibers, and bagasse, as additives in polymeric matrices generated great interest recently, since they became an option to be used as additives, reinforcers, or only as fillers.

Formulation of a Synergistic Enzyme Cocktail for Controlled Degradation of Sorghum Grain Pericarp
Sorghum is one of the major grains produced worldwide for food and fodder, owing to its nutritional profile advantages. However, the utilisation of whole grain sorghum as an ingredient in conventional food formulations is limited due to its poor ...

Chemical weathering and provenance evolution of Holocene–Recent sediments from the Western Indus Shelf, Northern Arabian Sea inferred from physical and mineralogical properties [PDF]
We present a multi-proxy mineral record based on X-ray diffraction and diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry analysis for two cores from the western Indus Shelf in order to reconstruct changing weathering intensities, sediment transport, and provenance ...

Crystalline Nephropathies [PDF]
Context.—The kidney is a favored site for crystal deposition because of the high concentration of ions and molecules reached at the level of the renal tubules in the course of filtration. This review focuses on crystalline nephropathies in 4 broad categories: (1) dysproteinemia- associated, (2) drug-induced, (3) calcium-containing, and (4) metabolic or

Experimental Study on Rejuvenation of Aged Power Cables via Simulation Operation
Thermal effects play a crucial role in the evolution of insulation performance in power cables during long-term operation. Before the experiments, crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) sheets and cables were thermally aged at 105 °C for up to 180 days.

Two-step treatment of birch chips (Betula pendula) was tested using diethanolamine (DEA)-1,8-diazabicyclo-[5.4.0]-undec-7-ene (DBU)-CO2-switchable ionic liquid (SIL), resulting in a 23% weight reduction in 24 h. The weight of the chips was reduced to 32%

Crystalline silicates as a probe of disk formation history
We present a new perspective on the crystallinity of dust in protoplanetary disks. The dominant crystallization by thermal annealing happens in the very early phases of disk formation and evolution. Both the disk properties and the level of crystallinity
