Microwave-assisted extraction and characterization of fatty acid from eel fish (Monopterus albus)
This study emphasized on the use of microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) technique to study the effects of three MAE parameters (irradiation time, microwave temperature and microwave power) in obtaining the extract from eel fish using ethanol as the extracting solvent. The free fatty acid (FFA), acid value, fatty acid contents, and functional groups in the extract were also examined. More so, the maximum extraction yield of 16.13% w/w was obtained at a microwave power of 800 W, FFA and acid value of 1.35 and 2.69 mg KOH/g, respectively confirmed the good quality of the obtained extract. In addition, the major fatty acid con...

Publication date: Available online 17 April 2018 Source:Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences Author(s): Bankole.I. Oladapo, S. Abolfazl Zahedi, F. Vahidnia, O.M. Ikumapayi, Muhammad U. Farooq The restoration of endodontically treated teeth is one of the main challenges in restorative dentistry since the weakened tooth structure is more prone to biomechanical failures due to significant tooth loss. The aim of this paper is to computational analysis of prepared crowned tooth in order to differentiate the possibility of using porcelain material for typical clinical condition and masticatory load b...

Morphological, histological and ultrastructural studies on the exocrine pancreas of goose
This study was conducted on the pancreas of ten healthy mature birds of goose. The pancreas was excised from the duodenum rapidly after slaughter of the birds. The specimens were fixed in 10% buffered neutral formalin then processed for light and electron microscopic study. The macroscopic observations revealed that goose pancreas was located in the right side of the abdomen between the ascending and descending loops of duodenum. It was formed from dorsal, splenic, ventral and third lobes. The histological observations revealed that the pancreas was formed of lobules of serous acini. The secretory acinus unit was appearing...
