To shorten the preparation time of porous starch while simultaneously ensuring its adsorption performance, we treated corn starch with a combination of microwave and complex enzymatic (α-amylase and amyloglucosidase) hydrolysis. Specifically, we investigated the effect of microwave and enzymatic hydrolysis on the structure, physicochemical properti...

Protein misfolding can lead to fibrillar and non-fibrillar deposits which are the signs of countless human diseases. A promising strategy for the prevention of such diseases is the inhibition of protein aggregation, and the most crucial step toward effective prevention is the development of small molecules having the potential for protein-aggregati...

The effects of thermoultrasound (US-FT), microwave (MW-FT), and room temperature (RT-FT) freeze-thaw pretreatments were evaluated for improving drying kinetics and quality during infrared drying (IRD) of red dragon fruit slices (RDFS). Results indicated that microstructural alterations induced by the different pretreatments improved the moisture re...

Providing farmers with the tools to monitor their crops continuously and reliably can aid the scaling of global food production to meet the ever-growing demand. The optical Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is commonly used to monitor crop greenness as an indicator for biomass, but it is limited by clouds and signal saturation. Syntheti...

The revival of natural dyes in different walks of life is due to stringent environmental standards imposed by many associations. For current studies, flowers of haar singhar (Nyctanthes arbor-tritis) has been chosen for bio-dyeing of cotton fabric using microwave irradiation techniques. For this purpose, liquid extracts and fabrics were exposed to ...

The effects of lysine addition and microwave treatment (MC) on the digestibility, physicochemical properties and structure of corn starch were investigated. Among all uncooked samples, unmodified corn starch (CS), microwave modified corn starch (MC-CS) and corn starch mixed with lysine (CS-Lys) contained 15.09 %, 14.82 % and 18.86 % slowly digestib...

Alternative methods for wet extraction of coconut oil and protein assisted by ultrasound or microwave were developed and compared. Coconut milk was prepared by milling the pulp (5:1 water to coconut pulp ratio), further destabilised at pH 4 and centrifuged to obtain the cream and cream protein fractions (control process). Microwave-assisted treatme...

The work to be presented in this dissertation explores the possibility of implementing origami-inspired shape-changing structures into RF designs to enable continuous performance tunability as well as deployability. The research not only experimented novel structures that have unique mechanical behaviour, but also developed automated additive manuf...

Microwave ablation (MWA) is difficult to perform in colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) adjacent to the cardiophrenic angle. Therefore, a modified approach involving antenna array placement parallel to the diaphragm was initially attempted. Its safety and efficacy were compared with those involving non-parallel placement. Sixty-three patients with ...
