TL;DR: In this article, two models for modeling the drying characteristics of a single milk droplet and the dryer wide simulations incorporating computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have been validated and compared against a very wide range of experimental results including isothermal and time-varying temperature conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, Douchi extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant properties and the isoflavones and peptides contents of extracts were determined by determining the α,α-diphenyl-β-pricrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities, and the chelating ability of ferrous ions, of which IC50 values were found to be 0.658, 0.204

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal conditions for the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction of flaxseed oil from flax seed were determined using response surface methodology (RSM).

TL;DR: The cross-linking immobilization of β-galactosidase from Kluyveromyces lactis on graphite surfaces was investigated, and the deactivation rate was found to follow the Arrhenius law with the activation energy of about 200 kJ mol −1 for the de activation of the immobilized enzyme.

TL;DR: The physical properties of fibered flaxseed were investigated within moisture content varying from 6.21 to 16.29% in this article, where the length, width, thickness and geometric mean diameter increased from 4.20 to 4.44mm, 1.95 to 2.13mm, 0.91 to 0.95mm, and 1.06mm, respectively in the moisture content range.
