Optical reflectance in fibrous tissues and skeletal muscles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)We studied diffuse optical reflectance in two anisotropic biological tissues: high moisture soy extrudates and skeletal muscles. High moisture extrusion of soy proteins can produce healthy alternative protein sources that ... -
Polyurethane foams from novel soy-based polyols
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)Polyurethane foams and molded plastic films were prepared by reacting isocyanates with polyols containing 50% of vegetable oil-based polyols and 50% of petroleum-based polyols. The vegetable oil-based polyols included ...
