Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow Dynamic Behavior of Fish Oil/Silver Nitrate Solution in Mini-Channel, Effect of Alkane Addition on Flow Pattern and Interfacial TensionKirubanandan ShanmugamThe mini-fluidic contacting system is developed as process intensification platform as an attractive alternative for existing liquid-liquid extraction system for separation of Omega 3 PUFA from using Aqueous 50% Wt. Silver nitrate solution. To improve the performance of extraction in mini-fluidics, it is necessary to study the flow-dynamic behavior of fish oil silver nitrate system in the channel. Moreover, different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Feb 2016 · 7,956 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPaleolithic-Style Diet and Coronary Artery Disease: The Tissue is the Issue?Eri Toda, Takahashi Toru, R. B. Singh et al.Approach: While the Western diet is proatherogenic, Paleolithic-style diet may be protective against Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs). Results: Western diet is characterized with energy dense, refined, foods with a high glycemic index (e.g., refined starches; biscuits and bread) and unhealthy lipids (e.g., trans fats, saturated fat, omega-6 rich oils) poor in omega-3 fatty acids, phytochemicals and fibre. These diets are known … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 10 Aug 2012 · 7,135 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysico-Chemical Characteristics of Date Seed Oil Grown in SudanRehab Salih Mahmoud Abdalla, Alsheikh AlGilani Albasheer, Abdel Rahim Mohamed ELHussein, ELrasheed Ahmed GadkariemProblem statement: Studies were conducted on the physical-chemical properties of Sudanese date seed oil extracted from two date palm cultivars (Phoenix dactylifera L.) ALBarakawi and Alqundeila. The extracted oil from ALBarakawi seeds weighed 6.833% w/w oil, Alqundeila oil extracted weighed 5.064% w/w. Approach: The physical properties of ALBarakawi oil were: viscosity: 17cp, refractive Index: 1.444, density: 0.9116 g cm-3 color: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 5 May 2012 · 9,500 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Metabolite Combinations Produced by Lactobacillus plantarum on Plasma Cholesterol and Fatty Acids in PigletsT. V. Thu, Loh Teck Chwen, H. L. Foo et al.Problem statement: Hypercholesterol and fatty acids in plasma are the main causes for cardiovascular disease. Reduction of risk factors from diet that associated with cardiovascular disease has much attention in animals as well as in human. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of feeding liquid metabolite combinations produced by five L. plantarum strains on the fatty … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,632 accessesView PDF Cite
