...momum), and chitosan coatings on the rainbow trout fillets were evaluated based on the protein profile, bacterial content (total aerobic mesophilic, psychotropic and lactic acid bacteria, Pseudomonas and Enterobacteriaceae), lipid peroxidation (TBARS), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and pH values on quality during 12 days. The decrease in bacterial growth activity, physicochemical values (TVB-N, TBARS and pH) and prolonged shelf life in a nat...

PTFE THIN FILM COATING ON 316L STAINLESS STEEL FOR CORROSION PROTECTION IN ACIDIC ENVIRONMENT
...> behavior in HCL. Hard coating is often required for protection of 316L SS from wear and corrosion. In this research
paper polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was coated on 316L SS by spin coating technique to modify their corrosion
resistance in acidic media containing Hydrochloric acid (HCL). The anticorrosion property of the 316L SS and PTFE
coating was studied in 40% ...

Our study used direction application and disk diffusion method to investigate the antibacterial potential of Neoscona mukherji and N. theisi egg and web silk. For disk diffusion method, silk was first degummed to form degummed silk solution’ (DgS), then the degummed silk was dissolved to form the dissolved silk solution (DSS). The DgS and DSS solutions were tested against selected c...

...ate the role of chitosan coating on partially mature guava to retain good quality and prolong shelf life in cold (11°C). Different chitosan concentrations i.e. 20% 30% and 40% were coated and stored at 11°C temperature. These fruits were compared with control (non-treated) fruit after 15 days. It was observed that the fruits coated with 40% chitosan showed minimum weight losses of 18.66% at cold storage (11°C) respectively as compared to control wh...

GA/ zein wax sheets significantly reduced (p < 0.05) the abundance levels of total bacteria, and psychrotrophic bacteria, as well as pH, thiobarbituric acid (TBA), and total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), especially for 4% GA/ zein wax film. The coatings resulte...

...ax (WPI/BW) as an edible coating to improve the quality and extend the shelf life of sliced pastirma stored under either aerobic or vacuum packaging. Pastirma was produced, sliced, and then allocated to four groups; the first group was aerobically packed and used as control, the second group was vacuum packed, while the third and fourth groups were coated with WPI/BW then packed in either polyethylene or vacuum bags. All groups were stored at 5 °C until th...

...otein was then used as a coating antigen to establish an indirect ELISA method for detecting the T. gondii antibody in pet cats, whose reaction conditions were optimized. The SAG2 gene was successfully cloned into a pET-21a (+) prokaryotic expression vector, and the recombinant plasmid pET-21a-SAG2 was obtained. The size of the recombinant protein was approximately 19 kDa, and it was expressed mainly in the form of an inclusion body. The optimal reaction condi...

...ffectiveness of chitosan coatings as natural preservative was assessed on rancidity development and quality changes in mori fillets during 28 days of storage. The control and chitosan coated samples were analyzed periodically at intervals of 7 days, for determination of pH, water holding capacity, water extractable proteins, salt extractable proteins, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and sensory quality of mori fillets. The results indicated tha...

The results indicated the occurrence of single and mixed infections of three viruses in potato plants. Survey results indicated highly distribution of PVY infected plants, which its yield was affected strongly. Tubers of potato plants which gave a positive reaction to PVY only were collected at harves...

The virus is not adsorbed to the exterior of the fungal vector but is internalized. Our results indicated that BNYVV is a widespread in sugar beet in Kafr EI-Sheikh Governorate. thus, precaution methods must be taken for reducing virus transmitting to other free-virus regions.

Wooden plates were kept for one year in outdoor natural climatic conditions and data of climatic factors and wood weathering was recorded. Results revealed that all the finishes gave good protection to wood species against natural weathering when compared with uncoated area. The maximum natural and induce...
