Lactobacillus paracasei CBA L74 interferes with gliadin peptides entrance in Caco-2 cells.

TL;DR: A novel effect of probiotics is described in the prevention of undigested gliadin peptides toxic effects by inhibiting P31-43 and P57-68 entrance in Caco2 cells, indicating that this biological effect is due to some product included in LP CBA L74 supernatant.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

3-D Modeling of Heat Transfer in Diesel Engine Piston Cooling Galleries

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical procedure using 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been developed to simulate the cooling process and to estimate the cooling efficiency of gallery, which is able to predict the detailed oil flow and heat transfer in gallery, of different designs and engine applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental determination of thermal conductivity of apple and potato at different moisture contents

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the thermal conductivity of apple and potato samples by means of a specifically designed apparatus based on Fitch's method and correlated the data with moisture content using a straight line.
Journal ArticleDOI

A single particle model for surface-to-bed heat transfer in fluidized beds

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical single particle model for the description of heat transfer coefficient between a submerged surface and a fluidized bed is presented. But the model considers the averaged surface void fraction as the only regression parameter for describing experimental data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorbents selection for aflatoxins removal in bovine milks

TL;DR: In this paper, several types of natural and industrial sorbents have been analyzed by considering their effects on the quality of the treated milk and their removal efficiencies, and it was shown that the highest removal efficiency was obtained for activated carbons due to the concurrent effects of high surface area, sufficiently wide micropore size and higher affinity between the AFM molecules and the aromatic structure of the carbons.
