Removal of water is a common method to prolong the storage stability of protein formulations. Traditionally, freeze-drying has been the method of choice, but spray drying and supercritical drying have gained increased interest in the past decade. The proper choice of drying technology has a significant impact on the final pharmaceutical product and on the overall economy of the process.:

Dissolution of the potassium complex [K(ATe)(dme)] (1-Te) in THF, layering with hexanes, and cooling to -30 °C afforded X-ray quality crystals of [K(ATe)(THF)] (2-Te). The K-TeR distances in 2-Te are substantially shorter than those in 1-Te, and DFT and QTAIM calculations support the presence of K-TeR interactions, providing the first unambiguous examples of s-block-telluroether bonding. Attempts to prepare bulk quantities of 2-Te afforded [K(ATe)(THF)] (3-Te), and further drying yielded [K(ATe)(THF)] (4-Te) and [K(ATe)] (5-Te).

Background And Aims: Genome size varies by orders of magnitude across land plants, and the factors driving evolutionary increases and decreases in genome size vary across lineages. Bryophytes have the smallest genomes relative to other land plants and there is growing evidence for frequent whole genome duplication (WGD) across the lineage. However, the broad patterns of genome size, chromosome number, and WGD have yet to be characterized across bryophytes in a phylogenetic context.

Unlabelled: Potato peels are one of the most under-utilized wastes which can be highly beneficial to mankind. The red potato peel powder was prepared by using tray drying and vacuum-oven drying method. The proximate analysis of red potato peel powder was conducted followed by its characterization which includes FT-IR, XRD, TGA, DSC, and SEM.

Unlabelled: Accurate prediction of moisture distributions in wood is among the most critical challenges in timber engineering. Achieving this requires a well-coordinated comparison of experimental methods and simulation tools. While significant progress has been made in developing simulation tools in recent years, a lack of experience with and trust in these tools continues to hinder broader implementation, especially when it comes to free water and its absorption.

Innovation in the drying process during the roasting of cashew nut almonds has the potential to significantly improve product quality. This study aimed to investigate the drying kinetics of the almond, comparing the experimental data with the mathematical models of Fick, Page, Cavalcanti Mata, and Henderson and Pabis. The research was conducted at the Laboratory of Physical Measurements and Drying of the Academic Unit of Food Engineering at the Federal University of Campina Grande.
