Physical, chemical and sensory attributes were
examined on canned green beans (Oregon 1604) of sieve sizes
3 & 4 and 5 & 6 after one and three months of storage at
room temperature (RT). The green beans subjected to
different pre-blanch conditions in water (T1t1: 160°F - 30
min.; T1t2:...
Carbonate nodules and associated sediments from Ocean Drilling Program Leg 139 sites of the Middle Valley, Juan de Fuca Ridge, were studied using a combination of inorganic and organic geochemical techniques. The mineralogy and stable isotopic compositions defined three types of nodules, reflecting the conditions of carbonate precipitation. Nodule ingrowth...
Soils in household environments in low- and middle-income countries may play an important role in the persistence, proliferation, and transmission of Escherichia coli. Our goal was to investigate the risk factors for detection, survival, and growth of E. coli in soils collected from household plots. E. coli was enumerated in...
A survey of scholarly and popular contemporary literature
reveals two persisting stereotypes regarding the
nature of women.
First is the theory that woman is inferior to man
and that since she is the "negative" of man's masculine
nature, she cannot develop her humanity to the fullest
extent without fusion with...
A fully integrated CMOS latched comparator is presented for use as a wake-up circuit that is attached to an RF energy harvester in a battery free wireless sensor network. The system consumes less than 36nA static current at 20°C and dissipates 2pJ of energy per conversion. The comparator comprises of...
Oxide materials exhibit a wide variety of structures and properties. In particular, transition metal oxides tend to be highly stable while exhibiting a wide range of properties that can be used for numerous applications. This work focuses on investigating how the structures’ of 4d and 5d transition metal oxides influences...
