Effect of low temperature blanching, cysteine-HCI, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, Na metabisulphite and drying temperatures on the firmness and nutrient content of dried carrots by Mohamed, Suhaila, Hussein, Rosli

“…LTLT blanching allows pectin methyl esterase to deesterify pectin which can then react with calcium to form salt bridges. 0.3% L-cysteine-HCl was found to be most effective in preventing ascorbic acid loss and obtaining a product with the highest rehydration ability, compared to pretreatments with 0.3% N-acetyl-L-cysteine and 0.1% sodium metabisulphite. …”

Solid-State P NMR, Far-IR, and Structural Studies on Two-Coordinate (Tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphine)copper(I) Chloride and Bromide by Bowmaker, Graham A., Cotton, John D., Healy, Peter C., Kildea, John D.

“…The reactions of acetonitrile solutions of copper(I) chloride, CuCl, and copper(I) bromide, CuBr, with the sterically hindered, highly basic tertiary phosphine ligand tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphine [=P(2,4,6)3] have been shown to form 1:1 monomeric adducts, [P(2,4,6)3 cux],The two compounds are isomorphous, crystallizing in the tetragonal space group P42. for the chloride, a = 15.237 (4) A, c = 12.373 (3) A, Z = 4, and R = 0.029 for 2339 “observed” (/ > 3<r(/)) reflections, while for the bromide, a - 15.312 (8) A, c = 12.457 (6) A, Z = 4, and R = 0.052 for 2148 “observed” reflections. …”

Run-up related to onshore tsunami flows by Sim, Shawn Yisheng

“…Second, due to the discovery of a cave that has well preserved tsunami deposits off the coast of Banda Aceh, Indonesia, we found that experimental dam break waves have the potential not only to bring the sediments in, but also allow ample time for deposition to occur. …”

The NEP and UMNO's political hegemony. by Choo, Jun Fei.

“…The racial conflict was largely caused by inter-ethnic resentment brought about by unequal distribution of national wealth concentrated mainly in the hands of the minority Chinese. The policy was formulated with two major objectives, namely to 'eradcate poverty irrespective of race' and to 'restructure society to eliminate the identification of race with economic function' in order to create the conditions for national unity. …”

Development of highly efficient organic and perovskite solar cells by Li, Xianqiang

“…The improved stability should come from the neutral nature of the PFBD solution because the good solubility of PFBD in methanol without the requirement of acetic acid. Besides the good photovoltaic performance of PFBD, we observed a light-soaking effect that the organic solar cells’ performance kept improving with increasing the sun light illumination time during the measurement of organic solar cells with PFBD ETL. …”

Carbon nanotube fence-wall for radio frequency isolation by Tan, Dunlin

“…This technique also allowed the substrate to remain at a lower temperature without compromising the high decomposition temperature of acetylene. As a result of systematic studies and optimization of parameters, substrate temperature of up to 420 °C was obtained, with growth length of 40 µm whilst the growth temperature remained at 600-650 °C. …”

Flavour evaluation of chocolate formulated from cocoa beans from different countries by Jinap, S., Dimick, P.S., Hollender, R.

“…There was no correlation between the flavour score and the pH, tritratable acidity, acetic and lactic acid concentrations. The study found that chocolate samples made from the low pH (4.75-5.19) and high pH (5.50-5.80) cocoa beans have low response in strong chocolate flavour. …”
