Functional and structural modifications associated with hypertension, obesity and diabetes in the resistance vasculatureFunctional and structural modifications associated with hypertension, obesity and diabetes in the resistance vasculature
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Cardiovascular diseases are considered the leading cause of death nowadays. Hypertension, obesity and type-2 diabetes are deemed major risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. In essential hypertension, ...
Photoacoustic evaluation of surfaces via pulsed evanescent field interaction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
In recent years, major research funding and commercial development has been going toward the production and characterization of increasingly useful nanomaterials. These materials such as quantum dots, nanoparticles, and ...
Experimental and numerical investigation of biomass mechanical pre-processingExperimental and numerical investigation of biomass mechanical pre-processing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
In this study, mechanical properties of switchgrass and miscanthus were determined by tensile, compressive and shear tests in longitudinal (along the fiber) and transversal (cross the fiber) directions with special designed ...
Application of whey protein-polysaccharide complexes in aerated dairy gels
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Previous research has shown that heated soluble complexes of whey protein isolate (WPI) with polysaccharides can improve both foam stability and acid-induced gel strength. We utilized these complexes in aerated dairy gels, ...
