Dried-Fruit Processing at Dole Dried Fruit and Nut

open access: yesReview of Agricultural Economics, 1997
This study presents a case where classic financial analysis was applied to an operations problem in the Dole Dried Fruit and Nut Division of Dole Food Company. Dole Dried Fruit and Nut used three quantitative measures (net present value, internal rate of return, and payback period) and qualitative factors to determine whether it should consolidate ...

Methane Pyrolysis Performance in Catalytic Molten Media for Hydrogen Production From the Perspective of Bubble Column Reactor Design and Configuration

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the hydrogen production routes from natural gas (methane), methane pyrolysis offers a cleaner option than the established steam methane reforming by producing CO2‐free hydrogen. However, in fixed bed reactors over solid catalysts, this technology experiences rapid catalyst deactivation due to carbon (coke) deposition encapsulating its ...

Dried Plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dried plasma provides an alternative for early plasma transfusion in the resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock in environments where fresh frozen plasma is not immediately available. It is produced by freeze-drying or spray-drying liquid or thawed plasma. It is shelf-stable for prolonged periods, can be stored at room temperature, and is easy to transport,

An Indicator‐Based Decision Framework for Circular Bioeconomy Transition in the Steel Industry: Integrating Multiphase Learning and Cooperative Game Modelling

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing attention to the circular bioeconomy (CBE), the steel industry currently lacks a standardised, sectoral measurement framework to facilitate a low‐carbon transition. In this study, a decision‐support framework for evaluating CBE performance in the steel industry is proposed.

Agent‐Based Computational Modeling of the Stochastic Dynamic Behavior of Actin Filaments Recapitulates the Homeostatic Cortical Array in Plant Epidermal Cells

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The homeostatic cortical actin array in plant cells plays important roles in fundamental processes, including intracellular transport, secretion, cell expansion, and cytoplasmic streaming. In response to diverse chemical and mechanical signals, the cortical array can remodel within minutes to assume new configurations or altered filament ...

Quality of Spontaneous and Backslopped Fermented Cassava Flour From Different Cassava Landraces and Sensory Acceptability of the Cooked Dough

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The cooked Oko‐iyawo spontaneously fermented cassava flour's sensory acceptability was correlated with its amylose content, pH, pasting temperature, and water absorption capability. Cassava processors may be able to create consistently high‐quality fermented cassava flour for various end users with the use of the information provided in this study ...

Determination of chain conformation of polysaccharides using a SEC‐MALLS‐Vis

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract For polysaccharides, biological activity is associated with the chemical structure as well as the chain conformation. The chain conformation is conventionally derived from the scaling relationships between weight‐average molecular weight (Mw) and intrinsic viscosity ([η]) or the radius of gyration (Rg) or the translational diffusion ...

The Abundancy Index of Divisors of Odd Perfect Numbers

open access: yes, 2012
If $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ is an odd perfect number, where $q$ is the Euler prime, then we show that $n < q$ is sufficient for Sorli's conjecture that $k = \nu_{q}(N) = 1$ to hold.

Subordination of related party claims in insolvency: A suggestive framework for Asian regimes

open access: yesInternational Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Related party loans, due to their inherent nature, warrant a higher threshold for scrutiny when compared to loans extended by unrelated parties. Why were these monies advanced as loans, carrying higher priority in insolvency, rather than being invested as share capital?

Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
