Abstract Background Although sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is rapidly urbanizing, the terms used to classify urban ecotypes are poorly defined in the context of malaria epidemiology.Lack of clear definitions may cause misclassification error, which likely decreases the accuracy of continent-wide estimates of malaria burden, limits the generalizability o
A sustainable approach for linen dyeing and finishing with natural lac dye through chitosan bio-mordanting and microwave heating
Sustainability has become a global requirement in all industries.In the textile sector sustainability can be achieved by developing innovative techniques, approaches, and machinery.The current study introduces a sustainable approach for linen dyeing with natural lac dye using microwave heating after the treatment with chitosan as a cationic bio-mor
Egg cooling rates affected by containers
Rapid cooling is one of the most important factors in maintaining initial egg quality.Tests conducted on a poultry ranch in Baby Activity Toy southern California show that the time required for cooling eggs is greatly affected by the container in which they are packed.Best cooling conditions are obtained when the egg has the least packaging or Outd
