The thickness swelling rates of compression molded wood plastic composites (WPCs) prepared from 50% by weight sawdust and
50% by weight virgin and/or recycled plastics (HDPE and PP) were studied. Thickness swelling rates of the manufactured WPCs
were evaluated by immersing them in water at room temperature and monitoring thickness changes for several weeks. A swelling
model developed by Shi and Gardner (Composites Part A, 37:1276–1285, 2006) was used to study the thickness swelling process
of WPCs. The parameter K
SR of the model can be used to quantify the swelling rate. The results indicated that composites containing PP had lower equilibrium
thickness swelling and also shorter equilibrium time (time to reach equilibrium thickness swelling). The swelling model developed
was a good predictor of the hygroscopic swelling process of wood plastic composites. Composites containing PP (virgin and
recycled) had higher K
SR than those containing HDPE. The minimum and maximum K
SR values were observed in composites made of virgin HDPE and a mixture of recycled plastics, respectively. With increasing
recycled plastic content K
SR linearly decreased. 相似文献

The purpose of oocyte in vitro maturation is generation of mature oocytes that could support future development. Efforts have been made to enhance oocyte developmental competence by developing optimal culture conditions. The present study is conducted to determine melatonin effects on quality of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) oocytes when it has been added during in vitro maturation, and immature oocytes were cultured in defined conditioned medium with and without different melatonin concentrations. Melatonin could significantly improve nuclear maturation of PCOS oocytes (81.1% vs. 56.3%, P < 0.05 were achieved with 10?6 mol/L concentration). Cleavage rate was significantly higher in 10?5 mol/L concentration compared to untreated oocytes in PCOS (54% vs. 35%, respectively) and it was significantly higher with 10?6 mol/L concentration in the control group, 55% versus 38%, compared to untreated oocytes. This study showed that melatonin has the potential to induce oocyte nuclear maturation and guarantee fertilization potential. © 2016 Japanese Society of Animal Science 相似文献

Salivary mucocele is one of the causes of submandibular swelling in dogs and is due to a collection of mucoid saliva that has leaked from a damaged salivary gland. The purpose of this case series report was to describe the clinical and ultrasonographic characteristics of confirmed salivary mucoceles in 13 dogs admitted to the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Cairo University. The final diagnosis of salivary mucocele was based on aspirate cytology for all dogs and additional surgical excision for seven dogs. For dogs admitted from 2 weeks to 1 month from the onset of clinical signs, the cervical mucocele appeared as a round echogenic structure with a large volume of central anechoic content. The wall was a clearly identified hyperechoic structure surrounding the gland. For dogs admitted between 1 to 2 months from the onset of clinical signs, the volume of anechoic material appeared less than that seen in the acute cases. The overall appearance of the salivary mucocele was heterogenous. For dogs admitted after 2 months from the onset of clinical signs, the salivary mucocele appeared grainy or mottled, with a heterogenous appearance and a further decrease in anechoic content. For one dog that presented after 3 months from the onset of clinical signs, the salivary mucocele was hard on palpation and appeared hyperechoic with distal acoustic shadowing. Findings from this study indicated that ultrasonographic characteristics of salivary mucoceles in dogs vary depending on the chronological stage of the disease. 相似文献

In August 2011, vegetable crops showing symptoms of maceration and water soaked lesions on their tuber, leaf, and fruit were collected from four major vegetable growing states in Malaysia including Pahang, Johor, Melaka and Selangor. The majority of the causal organisms isolated from infected tissues (52 strains) were identified as Pectobacterium spp. based on PCR amplification of the pectate lyase (pel) gene and amplification of the 16S-23S rRNA (ITS) with G1 and L1 primers. Physiological and biochemical assays divided Malaysian Pectobacterium species into two main groups: Pectobacterium wasabiae and Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp carotovorum. Partial sequence of PCR product from reaction of putative Pectobacterium spp. with 16S rRNA confirmed the results obtained from physiological and biochemical assays used for identification of the bacterium. Application of specific primers such as Eca1F/Eca2r, Br1f/L1r, EXPCCF/EXPCCR, and also ITS-PCR following by RFLP by restriction enzyme (RsaI) successfully differentiated Malaysian P. wasabiae and P. carotovorum subsp carotovorum isolates from other species and subspecies of Pectobacterium. Phylogenetic analysis of Malaysian isolates with housekeeping genes (mdh, gapA) grouped Malaysian P. carotovorum subsp carotovorum and P. wasabiae in the same cluster with P. carotovorum subsp carotovorum (Ecc380) and P. wasabiae (SCRI488) respectively. 相似文献

Reliable measurement of soil organic matter (SOM) contents is crucial to assessment of soil health, productive longevity and the effects of climate change. In this study, the loss‐on‐ignition (LOI) method has been used to determine the SOM of dried soil samples with a wide range of clay, sand and silt contents from the Agricultural Laboratory Proficiency (ALP) program. Regressions of ALP participant data against LOI measurements at 350–650°C indicate that the extent of SOM oxidation depends more on the ignition temperature and time than on the sample compositions. Thus, LOI data from ignition at 350–550°C for 12 h relative to ignition at 650°C for 12 h converge at 650°C and the average coefficient of variance decreases to ≈ 4% at 650°C. Also examined are regressions of soil organic C from direct dry combustion as standards with LOI measured at 360°C for 2 h, LOI measured at 650°C for 12 h and with the Walkley‐Black procedure used in the ALP program. 相似文献

Background: Pasteur Institute of Iran was established in 1919 with the aim to produce vaccines and prevent communicable diseases in Iran. Over time, their activities extended into areas of research, education and services. Naturally, such a vast development begs establishment of a comprehensive management and monitoring system. With this outlook, the present study was carried out with the aim to design a performance assessment model for Pasteur Institute of Iran that, in addition to determining evaluation indicators, it could prepare the necessary grounds for providing a unified assessment model for the global network of the Pasteur Institutes. Method: This study was designed and performed in 4 stages: first; design of indicators and determining their scores. Second; editing indicators according to the outcome of discussions and debates held with members of Research Council of Pasteur Institute of Iran. Third; implementation of a pilot model based on the Institute’s activities in 2011. Fourth; providing the pilot model feedback to the stakeholders and finalizing the model according to an opinion survey. Results: Based on the results obtained, the developed indicators for Pasteur Institute of Iran evaluation were designed in 10 axes and 18 sub-axes, which included 101 major and 58 minor indicators. The axes included governance and leadership, resources and facilities, capacity building, knowledge production and collaborations, reference services, economic value of products and services, participation in industrial exhibitions, status of the institute, satisfaction and institute’s role in health promotion. Conclusion: The indicators presented in this article have been prepared based on the balance in the Institute’s four missions, to provide the basis for assessment of the Institute’s activities in consecutive years, and possibility of comparison with other institutes worldwide. Key Words: Pasteur Institute, Iran, Indicator, Evaluation 相似文献

This study has evaluated the effects of different concentrations of the water and ethanolic extracts of Iranian propolis (WEP and EEP) on the microbiological and sensory parameters of minced common carp meat that was stored at 4°C for 9 days. The chemical compounds of the extracts were identified by gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis. The results revealed that WEP and EEP extracts were efficient against the spoilage microorganisms, including total plate counts (TPCs), psychrotrophic populations (PTCs), lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and even Staphylococcus aureus. There was a significant difference in the bacteria growth between samples treated with WEP or EEP and the control sample during storage. Inhibitory effects were, respectively, 7% EEP > 5% EEP > 3% EEP > 7% WEP > 5% WEP > 3% WEP. In all treatments, PTC counts were higher than 7 log CFU/g after 6 days as well as TPC, LAB, and S. aureus populations after 9 days. Overall, the results show that EEP and WEP have good antimicrobial activity due to high phenolic and flavonoid compounds, including caffeic acid, tectochrysin, aceacetin, chrysin, pinostrobin, pinobanksin-3-acetate, galangin-3-methyl ester, and pinocembrin chalcone. Sensory evaluation shows very slight improvement in sensory properties (color, odor, texture, and overall acceptability) of the treated samples with the different extracts of Iranian propolis. 相似文献
