Effect of packing conditions on the acrylamide content in black ripe olives

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 8, Page 4635-4642, June 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Black ripe olives are considered a ‘low‐acid canned food’ and must be sterilized in order to be safe. Acrylamide, a potential carcinogen, is formed in black olives during the thermal treatment. It is known that the formation of acrylamide is dependent on the pH of the olive flesh. The purpose of this study was designed to assess the

Effects of Disorder on Electron Transport in Arrays of Quantum Dots [PDF]

, 2005
We investigate the zero-temperature transport of electrons in a model of quantum dot arrays with a disordered background potential. One effect of the disorder is that conduction through the array is possible only for voltages across the array that exceed

Pharmaceutical Wastage in Public Health Facilities of Ethiopia: Determinants, Consequences, and Solutions

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
A mixed‐methods study of 17 Ethiopian public health facilities found pharmaceutical wastage of ETB 12.2 million (4.0%), mainly from expiration (98%). Key drivers included weak accountability, near‐expiry deliveries, and poor forecasting. Strengthening electronic inventory systems and redistribution mechanisms can substantially reduce losses and improve
