Rheological Properties and Microstructure of Canola-Based Emulsions Stabilized with Polyoxyethylene Sorbitan Surfactants_ Crimson Publishers

Rheological Properties and Microstructure of Canola-Based Emulsions Stabilized with Polyoxyethylene Sorbitan Surfactants by Gerson Lopes Teixeira* in Research & Development in Material Science_ journal of materials science and technology

 

Abstract
This work evaluated eight different emulsions produced with canola oil and stabilized using two different polyoxyethylene sorbitan surfactants (Tween® 60 or Tween® 85), by evaluating their microstructure and rheological properties. The results showed that the canola-based emulsion behaved as non-Newtonian fluids with pseudoplastic character (n or nH <0.7). Additionally, the Ostwald-de Waele (OW) and Herschel-Bulkley (HB) models adequately described the rheological behavior of the emulsions (R2 >0.98 for OW, and R2 >0.99 for HB; χ2 <0.001 for both), highlighting that the samples containing Tween® 60 (A, C, E and G) achieved higher values for the consistency coefficient (K <18.5) than the Tween® 85-based samples (B, D, F and H) (K <5.3), agreeing with the apparent viscosity data. Emulsions containing Tween® 60 at all concentrations and stirring rate conditions achieved the lowest droplet sizes (90% droplet size distribution (DSD) up to 4.0μm), higher consistency, and a global appearance similar to that of mayonnaise, while formulations made with Tween® 85 produced emulsions with bigger values for DSD, more fluid-like appearance and larger droplet sizes. In general, canola-based emulsions containing Tween® 60 showed better overall performance in the assays.

Introduction
One of the most important physical properties of dispersion samples is the particle size, which influences many other characteristics, being a valuable indicator of quality and performance for products such as suspensions, emulsions, and aerosols [1,2]. For these and many other reasons, it is important to measure and control the particle size distribution of those products. In addition, several imaging techniques and software are available to evaluate the structure of particulate systems, such as emulsions [3]. A wide variety of foods are emulsions: mixtures of two inherently immiscible fluids, one of which is the continuous, while the other is the dispersed phase [4]; thus, it is important to understand their physical, rheological and microscopic properties aiming to choose the best surfactants and process conditions to work with this colloidal system [1]. Additionally, the image processing and evaluation becomes important because it provides significant quantitative data of the micro/nanostructure of the dispersions [5], a key element in product development

Unsuspected Pollutants in Soils Around Mine- Site Vicinity_ Crimson Publishers

 Unsuspected Pollutants in Soils Around Mine- Site Vicinity by Itodo AU* in Environmental Analysis & Ecology Studies_ Journal of Environmental Sciences

 

Abstract
Our opinion is based on a study that utilizes two non-destructive analytical techniques (XRF and XRD), which proved effective in the mineralogical characterization of Columbite-Tin ore contaminated soils. Unsuspected contaminants of environmental and health concern were found to range from radionuclides to their stable nuclides of toxicity potentials.

Introduction
It is worthy of note that contamination of agricultural soils and depletion of the environment as a results of unregulated mining activities poses threats on the environment and on human. The basis of this research piece is the mineral characterization and dearth information on the toxicology of the elements and compounds that are exposed as a result of mining activities. The mining industry generates wastes which contain high concentrations of metals and metalloids which contaminates agricultural soils, air and water. These pollutants can be mobilized, resulting in leaching into ground and surface water. Most of these heavy metals are highly toxic and are not biodegradable.

Knee Dislocation and Patellar Tendon Disruption: A Case Report_ Crimson Publishers

 Knee Dislocation and Patellar Tendon Disruption: A Case Report by Rodrigo KP* in Researches in Arthritis & Bone Study_ Journal of Arthritis Bone Disease

 

Abstract

Dislocation of the knee is a serious event, often caused by a violent trauma. Patellar tendon rupture cases are described in patients with trauma and even with no trauma at all in some chronic systemic diseases. This is a case report of these two events together in the same patient. A 56 years-old man with rheumatoid arthritis had knee dislocation and patellar tendon disruption after a small trauma. Due to local cellulitis, the surgery was postponed. We decided to perform reconstruction of the patellar tendon only because of the patient’s comorbidity and because the knee was stable. The patient resumed his job after six months of physical therapy. In this report, we describe a very uncommon case of knee dislocation and patellar tendon disruption together. Although the surgery is currently the choice to treat knee dislocation, this patient had only the patellar tendon reconstruction due the rheumatoid arthritis. This very uncommon case, with a surgery treatment, reminds us to be always careful when examining a patient with knee dislocation. We should not forget to examine the patellar height.

Rehabilitation of Spinal Pain Through Emg Biofeedback_ Crimson Publishers

 Rehabilitation of Spinal Pain Through Emg Biofeedback by Mohammed Sheeba Kauser* in Developments in Anaesthetics & Pain Management

 

Abstract
The point of the investigation is to enhance proprioceptive familiarity with muscle and shape the levels of low muscle strain to maximal muscle unwinding. A Case think about on multiyear female who was accounted for with cervical myelopathy where the cervical torment alongside deadness of hands and shoulder torment has been accounted for. Biofeedback and alongside thererapeutic activities and footing have been presented for the intentional engine action assistance and enhance personal satisfaction.

Introduction
Cervical spinal channel stenosis is a state of narrowing of the spinal trench in the neck area, it might be resultant of numerous neurological causes or of age. With individual of age, the intervertebral plates turn out to be less supple and lose water content. This can prompt lessened plate stature and swelling of the solidified circle into the spinal channel. The bones and the tendons of the spinal joints thicken and expand, additionally pushing into the spinal trench. These progressions are normal after age 50 and are for the most part called “cervical spondylosis “or “cervical stenosis”, and other neurological conditions, for example, numerous sclerosis, ALS, or spinal tumors may likewise cause stenosis and myelopathy. Another reason for myelopathy additionally can happen after medical procedure called as syringomyelia.

Meta-Cognitive Therapy for Depression with Anxiety Features: A Case Study_ Crimson Publishers

Meta-Cognitive Therapy for Depression with Anxiety Features: A Case Study by Manju Mehta* in Developments in Clinical & Medical Pathology_ Journal of Medical Pathology

 

Abstract
Metacognitive Therapy (MCT) for depression and anxiety Wells [1] is based on the idea that persistent emotional distress is a consequence of a particular way of responding to negative thoughts and emotions. MCT for depression and anxiety aims at targeting attentional control, rumination, worry, and metacognitive beliefs of individuals. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of meta-cognitive therapy (MCT) in the treatment of a patient diagnosed with major depressive disorder with anxiety features using an AB-design with repeated assessments at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up. Following 10 sessions of MCT, it was observed that there were clinically significant improvements on outcome measures. A significant decrease in anxiety and depression symptoms and loss of diagnostic status was observed. It was concluded that MCT seems to be promising approach in managing the highly comorbid depression and anxiety symptoms. Further testing using more powered methodologies are needed

Are Virtual Relationships Real?_ Crimson Publishers

Are Virtual Relationships Real? by Eleanor Avinor* in Degenerative Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities_ Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability

 

Abstract
The working of social and economic institutions, inequality is also a product of the way political institutions work. Government has known to serve the interest of economics elites and this most often works to the detriment of common people. This refers to the article ‘’Two trajectories’’ A Promise of reform and Ashaaram Pattern, what others do. A molar leadership deficit, our political leaders choose not to speak on certain issues. But they are forgetting that they have a molar responsibility towards domestic violence testing among divorced women begins privately manage pharmaceutical intuition associated to slums occupied area in Pune University, India. The horrific incidence in kathua and unnao has shown us the ugliest side of the country’s politician. The right procedure is not followed for the enquiry of the domestic violence and his contention by government police. The term intimate partner violence is often used synonymously with domestic abuse or domestic violence, but it specifically refers to violence occurring within a couple relationships (i.e., marriage, non-cohabitating intimate partners). To these, the World Health Organization (WHO) adds controlling behaviours as a form of abuse. Intimate partner violence has been observed in opposite and same-sex relationships, and in the former instance by both men against women and women against men.
