The stability, or instability, of the milk fat emulsion is very significant with respect to many physical and chemical characteristics of milk and dairy products. The stability of the emulsion depends strongly on the integrity of

I want to talk for a few minutes with the people of the United States about banking -- to talk with the comparatively few who understand the mechanics of banking, but more particularly with the overwhelming majority of you who use banks for the making of deposits and the drawing of checks

Lactose is the principal carbohydrate in the milks of all mammals; non mammalian sources are very rare. Milk contains only trace amounts of other sugars, including glucose(50 mg\), fructose, glucosamine, galac- tosamine, neuraminic acid and neutral and acidic oligosaccharides The concentration of lactose in milk varies widely between species(Table 2.1). The lactose content of cows'milk varies with the breed of cow

影响土壤比重的因素: 土壤比重仅仅取决于土壤固相颗粒的物质组成。 Since a large portion of most soils is composed of particles derived from quartz minerals, the particle density of most soils is near 2.6 g/cc which is the density of quartz. Variations in the particle density are due to the presence of heavier minerals like iron oxides or lighter organic components

Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific

Mr. President, Dr. Conant, members of the Board of Overseers, Ladies and Gentlemen: I am profoundly grateful, touched by the great distinction and honor and great compliment accorded me by the authorities of Harvard this morning. I am overwhelmed, as a matter of fact, and I am rather fearful of my inability to maintain

Graphs(review) Definition. a directed graph(digraph G=(, E)is an ordered pair consisting of a set y of vertices(singular: vertex) a sete c× of edges. In an undirected graphG=(V, E), the edge set e consists of unordered pairs of vertices In either case, we have El=O(v2).Moreover if G is connected, then E2v-l, which
