The Short-Term Performances of Two Independent Gas Modulated Refractometers for Pressure Assessments
Refractometry is a powerful technique for pressure assessments that, due to the recent redefinition of the SI system, also offers a new route to realizing the SI unit of pressure, the Pascal. Gas modulation refractometry (GAMOR) is a methodology that has

Comparison of rapid laboratory tests for failure of passive transfer in the bovine [PDF]
peer-reviewedBackground Failure of passive transfer of maternal immunity via colostrum can occur in the bovine, and a number of blood tests have been developed to test calves for this failure. It is not clear which test is most suitable for this purpose.

Block freeze-concentration of coffee extract: Effect of freezing and thawing stages on solute recovery and bioactive compounds [PDF]
Coffee extract was freeze-concentrated using the total block technique. The effects of four parameters were evaluated: the initial coffee mass fraction (5 and 15% w/w), the cooling temperature ( 10 and 20 C), the heating temperature (20 and 40 C ...
