Once upon a time, regular milk was defined as milk with cream at the top. That changed with one major industrial process.

Homogenization is an essential step in several industrial processes, such as pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics. Two common homogenization methods are high-pressure homogenization (HPH) and ...

Composite materials are made by combining two or more distinct materials, such as a fiber and a matrix, to exploit the best qualities of each. However, predicting the performance of a composite ...

Estimating composite material properties can be computationally expensive and time-consuming. Researchers from Pusan National University (Busan, South Korea) have proposed a reduced basis ...

The elastoplastic response of polycrystalline metals and minerals above their brittleductile transition temperature is idealized here as rigid–perfectly plastic. Bounds on the overall plastic strength ...

Biological samples come in all shapes and sizes, for example, tough and fibrous plants, hard bones, soft muscles, tough and viscous sputum, or tumor or liver tissue. In addition, there are millions of ...

One of the largest bottlenecks in a modern life science laboratory workflow is at the beginning of the sample-preparation stage: It is the efficient lysis, homogenization, and grinding of difficult-to ...

Homogenized milk undergoes a mechanical process to create a uniform consistency. It enhances the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and has an extended shelf life. However, it may cause digestive ...

One of the most time-consuming bottlenecks in molecular biology experiments is efficient grinding, homogenization, and lysis of starting materials. This is especially important in plant research, soil ...
