Relative humidity

Sprague Dawley rats (male, 9 weeks, 180-200 g) were obtained from the Vital River Co., Ltd (Beijing, China) and maintained at controlled temperature (22±2°C) and humidity (50±10%) with a 12h light/ dark cycle. All efforts were made to minimize the pain of animals. The experimental protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine (No.: Kj-dw-18-20150821-01). 2.3 Chronic Restraint Stress After seven days of acclimatization, rats were divided into five groups…

because it has many applications in electronic industry, for an example as a diffusion barrier on electrical contacts and as an electrical conductor on devices. Oxidation of nickel takes place at 100 degrees centigrade and is more sensitive to relative humidity (RH) than to the temperature. Film thickness increases with increase in RH and forms Ni(OH)2 at the surface of NiO film with creation of vacancies in the surface of the oxide. NiP alloys are used as a material for electrical contacts and…

• The Midwest is home to 61 million people who are spread though out the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Ohio, Minnesota, Michigan, and Missouri. • In between the years of 1900-2010 the temperature of the Midwest increased by more than 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit. • If we do not cut back on green gases in the Midwest from the years 1979-2000 to the years of 2046-2065 the temperature will rise 3.8 degrees Fahrenheit, but if we do not cut back global warming will increase 4.9 degrees…

transfer to laminar air flow for solidified and inoculation of explant. For germination of seeds culture vessels were incubated in darkness at a constant 25 °C temperature for 15 Days and, in a growth chamber with 16 hours of photoperiod and 60 % relative humidity for 3 weeks 8. Shoot, leaf and nodal segments explants were excised from 5-week-old in vitro grown seedlings cut into 0.5 cm pieces for studies of multiple shoots formation as well as callus initiation by addingvarious concentration of…

history in Egypt. The disease has become a threatening disease as it may attack animals in the form of massive outbreaks due to animal exportation during Eid Al Adha, which is a major feast in Egypt and due to the climate change as high temperature and humidity (Kawther, 2012).This study estimates the prevalence and distribution of antibodies to BTV in different localities at Assiut governorate, Egypt. Our results revealed high seroprevalence…

In vitro aerodynamic performance testing using Next Generation Impactor™ (NGI™) The aerodynamic behaviour of the spray dried powders from the Aerolizer® device (Novartis, Surrey, UK) was assessed using the Next Generation Impactor (NGI; Copley Scientific, Nottingham, UK). NGI setup comprises of a stainless steel induction port attached with a mouthpiece adaptor, eight removable stainless steel collection cups located at seven plus a micro orifice collector (MOC) stages, a high capacity vacuum…

Powdery mildew in soybeans, caused by the fungus Microsphaera diffusa, is a leaf disease in soybeans, and it also affects other legumes. The disease requires cool air temperatures and low relative humidity, making it uncommon during Midwest summers. Powdery mildew occurs only occasionally in soybeans in the Midwest and Upper Midwest. Epidemics have been reported about every 10 to 15 years. Nonetheless, powdery mildew can cause significant yield loss when it occurs, so it’s important for farmers…

characters, actors and filmmakers that make the Philippine cinema. 1.5. Project Scope and Limitation The focus of the study is the design standards of museums, and the technologies and building design that would ensure 24/7 temperature and relative humidity control to ensure optimum conditions for long-lasting conservation. The facility shall also house (a) exhibit areas for public access; (b) multimedia halls for film screenings and events; (c) laboratories for the restoration,…

range of 40 -85°C and the optimal temperature is 50°C. And the microorganisms associated with this group of temperature preferences would be those microorganisms present in canned foods e.g. Clostridium botulinum. [19] 2) Relative Humidity (R.H.) This factor refers to the water activity (aw) in the food or to the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the food. As the temperature reaches higher values, the R.H. value lowers down. [20] 3)…

1. Surrounding Temperature At Trader Joe’s and Ralphs, both the apples and bananas were found at room temperature, whereas the broccoli was refrigerated at both locations. Temperature is the most important factor affecting respiration. Within a certain range, most respiration rates are directly related to temperature. As temperature increases, so do the respiration rates. Apples and bananas are not refrigerated because they display similar respiration rates when chilled as opposed to room…
