Consumption of sweetened, dried cranberries may reduce urinary tract infection incidence in susceptible women – a modified observational study
BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections, and over 50% of women will have a UTI during their lifetimes. Antibiotics are used for prophylaxis of recurrent UTIs but can lead to emergence of drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, it is reasonable to investigate nutritional strategies for prevention of UTIs. Cranberry juices […]

Crystal structure of the Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) 7S seed storage protein with copper ligands
Effects of water, sodium hypochlorite, peroxyacetic Acid, and acidified sodium chlorite on in-shell hazelnuts inoculated with salmonella enterica serovar panama
The use of NARX neural network for modeling of adsorption of zinc ions using activated almond shell as a potential biosorbent.
In this study, nonlinear autoregressive model processes with exogenous input (NARX) are applied for the prediction of percentage adsorption efficiency for the removal of zinc ions from wastewater by activated almond shell. The effect of operational parameters such as pH, dosage, particle size and initial metal ions concentration are studied to optimize the conditions for […]

Patulin & ergosterol: New quality parameters together with aflatoxins in hazelnuts
Hazelnuts of three different categories, mouldy, hidden mould and sound (undamaged), were investigated for their contents of aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1 and G2), patulin, and ergosterol. Samples were obtained from five hazelnut processing plants located in a major hazelnut producing area in the Black Sea region in Turkey. All aflatoxins, patulin and ergosterol were determined […]
