The influence of the shape of wax pattern on the kinetics of drying of ceramic moulds

open access: yesMetalurgija, 2015
Multi-layer ceramic moulds are built of slurry and a refractory material forming their matrices. From the moment when the European Union introduced regulations concerning the environment protection requiring substitution of alcoholic binders by aqueous ...

Effects of five drying methods on the drying characteristics and quality of peanuts

open access: yesShipin yu jixie
ObjectiveTo determine the appropriate mechanical drying technology for peanuts.MethodsFresh peanuts were used as raw materials. The effects of heat pump drying (HPD), far infrared drying (FID), electric heating drying (EHD), far infrared combined heat ...

Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Active Matter Alters the Growth Dynamics of Coffee Rings

open access: yes, 2018
How particles are deposited at the edge of evaporating droplets, i.e. the {\em coffee ring} effect, plays a crucial role in phenomena as diverse as thin-film deposition, self-assembly, and biofilm formation.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Optimisation of loading capacity of smoking kiln on drying characteristics of Catfish (Clarias gariepinus)

open access: yesAgricultura Tropica et Subtropica, 2019
Fish smoking is widely used in the fish processing industry, especially in the post-harvest catfish product due to its simple operating technique. The objective of this study was to optimise the tray loading capacity of a smoking kiln for catfish.

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Determination of drying performance of different slice thicknesses from different cassava varieties using hybrid dryer

open access: yesSolar Compass
Food provides most of the needed energy by humans to carry out their daily activities, but the issue of post-harvest losses is having an adverse effect on its production.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...
