A new analytical method was developed for determining formaldehyde (CH2O) in cheese by FTIR spectroscopy. Formaldehyde (CH2O) was also spiked at 0 to 100 mg/100g in freshly prepared cheese. Two sets, each of twenty one (21) samples, were prepared using the same type of soft white cheese. FTIR spectra were recorded using Attenuated Total Reflectance

Immobilization of lipase enzyme originated from wheat germ on nylon -6- grafted with PGMA was studied. Face centered central composite design (FCCCD) under response surface methodology (RSM) was used to design the experiment in order to distinguish the optimum immobilization conditions for highest enzyme activity and to study the interactions betwe

Nowadays, two most important processes, namely rapid prototyping (RP) and CNC machining are being used to produce prototypes. CNC machining (subtractive method) is relatively more precise and accurate, but it is tough to create stuffs with complex features. RP (additive method), by contrast, is able to form parts with sophisticated features, that c

بزغ نجم جبران في سماء الأدب بداية القرن العشرين إثر نشره عدة أعمال نثرية وشعرية باللغة العربية والإنكليزية، تميزت بسموها العاطفي والأخلاقي وتطلعها إلى حياة روحية مثالية. ويدرك الناظر في أعما�

The effect of temperature/ moisture dependent material properties on the bending behavior of simply supported angle-ply composite laminated shells has been investigated. A 13 term accurate higher order shear deformation theory with zigzag function is used in this analysis in which the effects of transverse shear deformation are taken into account.

PRDM9 binding localizes almost all meiotic recombination sites in humans and mice. However, most PRDM9-bound loci do not become recombination hotspots. To explore factors that affect binding and subsequent recombination outcomes, we mapped human PRDM9 binding sites in a transfected human cell line and measured PRDM9-induced histone modifications. T

Particle Image Velocimetry was used in a low speed wind tunnel to investigate the effect of interactions of vortices produced by an outboard flap-tip of a half wing (NACA 23012 in landing configuration) and a slender reverse delta type add-on device, placed in the proximity of the outboard flap-tip, on the upper surface of the half wing. This work

This study explores the various mystical aspects that encompass Gibran's creative works in English and Arabic. It presents an overview of theistic mysticism followed by an examination of the mystical themes represented by Gibran such as Truth, Perfect Divine Being, mystic path, and spiritual morality with analogies from Islamic and Christian my

Imbalanced class is one of the trials in classifying materials of big data. Data disparity produces a biased output of a model regardless how recent the technology is. However, deep learning algorithms such as convolutional neural networks and deep belief networks have proven to provide promising results in many research domains, especially in imag

Mastering the recitation of the Holy Quran is an obligation among Muslims. It is an important task to fulfill other Ibadat like prayer, pilgrimage, and zikr. However, the traditional way of teaching Quran recitation is a hard task due to the extensive training time and effort required from both teacher and learner. In fact, learning the correct pro
