Comparison of two diagnostic methods through blood and urine sample analyses for the detection of ketosis in cattle [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: Several Ecuadorian farms use human test strips (cheaper than veterinary strips) to diagnose bovine ketosis; however, their reliability is unknown. This study aimed to determine the confidence level of human strips for the detection of

Physical properties of poly(hydroxybutyrate) and copolymers of hydroxybutyrate and hydroxyvalerate [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 The major physical properties of poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and its copolymers with hydroxyvalerate (PHB/HV) and those of their blends are summarised. Cases of liquid-liquid phase separation in homopolymer copolymer blends are reported and conditions where further phase separation occurs during crystallisation are documented.

The Modification of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) by Melt Blending
Polymers, 2022 Crystalline and noncrystalline poly(3-hyroxybutylate-co-4-hyroxybutylate) (P(3HB-co-4HB)) were melt blended to obtain mixtures of P(3HB-co-4HB) copolymers. The mixtures and P(3HB-co-4HB) copolymers of different 4HB contents were compared to study the effect of 4HB content on the properties of the copolymers and mixtures.

Optimal Design of an Integrated Microalgae Biorefinery for the Production of Biodiesel and PHBs
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2014 In this work, we formulate a nonlinear programming model for the design of an integrated microalgae- based biorefinery for the production of biodiesel and value added co-products which depend on the particular microalgae species considered.
