Novel Methods of Degumming and Bleaching of Indian Flax Variety Tiara
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2021 Tiara is the only fiber variety flax recently been introduced in India. The water retted flax fibers were mechanically extracted and subjected to degum and bleach using various chemicals and enzymes and the treatment conditions were optimized.

RELAXATION IN EXTRACTED MUSCLE FIBERS [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1954 1. Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) in low concentrations imitates all the known effects of the relaxation factor ("Marsh factor"). In extracted muscle fibers which have contracted in a solution containing adenosinetriphosphate (ATP), the addition of EBTA causes relaxation, the subsequent addition of CaCl2, contraction. 2.

THE CONTROL OF ENERGY RELEASE IN EXTRACTED MUSCLE FIBERS [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1953 Tension and P liberation were determined at the same time in glycerol-extracted muscle fibers suspended in ATP solutions. In the relaxed state, produced by ATP in rather fresh preparations, P liberation was low, but somewhat higher than in normal resting muscle.

Anions and the contraction of glycerol-extracted muscle fibers [PDF]
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1970 Glycerinated rabbit psoas fibers 5-19 days old were immersed in contracting solutions with and without varying concentrations of different sodium salts. Raising the pH of the solution in small steps identified a threshold pH above which the fibers rapidly developed maximum tension.

Evaluation of Tensile Strength of Fibers Extracted from Banana Peels
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020 Tensile properties of banana fibers extracted from the peel of the fruit of the Cavendish sub-group were studied. A total of 43 fibers were manually extracted from the peel of green bananas, measuring five diameters from each fiber.
