Physicochemical Properties, Antioxidant Capacity, and Consumer Acceptability of Ice Cream Incorporated with Avocado ( Persea Americana Mill.) Pulp by Jutamas Moolwong, Worasaung Klinthong, Thanida Chuacharoen

“…A higher content of avocado pulp caused a reduction in overrun and retarded the melting rate due to the effect of high fiber content. Increased viscosity and hardness were observed. The ice cream with the highest avocado pulp content had approximately 3-fold higher total phenolic content determined by the Folin-Ciocalteau method and 2-fold higher antioxidant capacity evaluated as DPPH• and ABTS•+ scavenging activity, and ferric reducing antioxidant power compared to that of the control. …”

¿Unión y concordia? Tensiones y acercamientos entre fascistas y antifascistas en el mutualismo italiano de Bahía Blanca (Argentina, 1929-1932) by Bruno Cimatti

“…El cuerpo fontanal, compuesto por documentación italiana y argentina, y constituido por prensa, documentación institucional e informes de circulación interna en el Estado italiano, posibilita una yuxtaposición de informaciones que permiten construir una mirada a escala local que da cuenta de la complejidad de la cotidianeidad política de la colectividad italiana.El abordaje de momentos de cooperación entre fascistas y antifascistas en el marco de una entidad mutual, así como de los elementos que imposibilitaron que esta prosperara, aporta a los estudios sobre la realidad política de la colectividad italiana durante el ventennio fascista, mediante la presentación de matices que otorgan mayor complejidad a aquellas visiones que tiendan a ver a uno y otro grupo ideológico como antagonistas irreconciliables.…”

A New Multicontinuum Model for Advection-Diffusion Process of Single-Phase Nonlinear Flow in a Multiscale Fractured Porous Media by Richard Owusu, Adu Sakyi, Peter Amoako-Yirenkyi, Isaac Kwame Dontwi

“…This model also has effective diffusive and advective coefficients that account for reservoir properties such as viscosity, fluid density, and flow velocity. From the numerical simulation, a radial, a horizontal-linear flow behavior, and a transient and quasi-steady-state flow regime that is typical of naturally fractured porous media was observed. …”
