Assessing the impact of isochoric freezing as a preservation method on the quality attributes of orange juice.

Isochoric (constant volume) freezing is a novel food preservation technology that has demonstrated the ability to preserve food products at subfreezing temperatures in an unfrozen state, thereby avoiding the detrimental effects of ice formation. It minimizes the quality loss of fresh fruits and juices, increases their nutrient content, and reduces microbial counts. Orange juice (OJ) samples were subjected to conventional freezing (CF) and isochoric freezing (IF) for 7 days and then stored at 4°C for an additional 7 days.

Identifying Diabetic Retinopathy in the Human Eye: A Hybrid Approach Based on a Computer-Aided Diagnosis System Combined with Deep Learning.

Diagnosing and screening for diabetic retinopathy is a well-known issue in the biomedical field. A component of computer-aided diagnosis that has advanced significantly over the past few years as a result of the development and effectiveness of deep learning is the use of medical imagery from a patient's eye to identify the damage caused to blood vessels. Issues with unbalanced datasets, incorrect annotations, a lack of sample images, and improper performance evaluation measures have negatively impacted the performance of deep learning models.

The effect of Ba2+ on the nitrergic mechanism in the isolated frog lung preparation.

1. The present study was undertaken to investigate effects of Ba2+ on the isolated frog lung strips depolarized by 20 mM K+ in Ca2+ free Ringer solution. 2.

The role of Na+ channels in twitch generation during exposure of the frog rectus abdominis to Ca-free Ringer solution with Na2EDTA.

The aim of the study was to investigate whether Na+ channels play a role in the twitch component of the response of the isolated frog rectus abdominis to Ca(2+)-free Ringer solution with 0.2 mM Na2EDTA by using tetrodotoxin and some other well known drugs that exhibit a blocking action on Na+ channels. In the presence of 5 x 10(-7) M tetrodotoxin, the twitch component, measured isotonically, disappeared.
