Exploring the Potential of Pachyrizus Erosus-Derived Calcium as an Affordable Nutritional Solution for Lactose Intolerance
An exploration of Pachyrhizus erosus as an option for plant-based milk in the 印尼n market for people with lactose intolerance. With its prevalence in tropical climates, Pachyrhizus erosus is an affordable crop in 印尼. Pachyrhizus erosus is a root vegetable containing a calcium content of 15.6 mg per cup (130g) in its unprocessed form, concentrated in its white flesh. Based on its affordability and calcium content, Pachyrhizus erosus can be transformed into a beverage product with nutritional qualities on par with existing plant-based milk, therefore being a solution for calcium sustenance that is more accessible due to its high capability to be locally grown in 印尼. However, this may be a partial case as Pachyrhizus erosus only thrives in regions with long warm seasons. In this research, three trials of Pachyrhizus erosus-based milk recipe have been conducted Trial 1 consists of a 1:1 ratio of Pachyrhizus erosus to water, Trial 2 consists of a 2:1 ratio of Pachyrhizus erosus to water, and Trial 3 consisting of a 10:10:1 ratio of Pachyrhizus erosus to water, and to a small amount of soybean. Based on the results of 14 organoleptic test respondents, it is concluded that the best ratio of ingredients is 10:10:1 (water: Pachyrhizus erosus: soybean) due to an overall preference of the third trial with this ratio, in terms of taste, aroma, color, and consistency. Pachyrhizus erosus is the dominant ingredient in developing alternate plant-based milk. However, findings from the most preferred trial in the organoleptic test suggest that implementing a minor amount of soybean would stabilize the milk-like consistency and flavor. Pachyrhizus erosus’ ability to retain calcium in its water content has been additionally proven in a calcium test using a reagent solution of ammonium oxalate, as even with the trials’ step of straining the liquid content of Pachyrhizus erosus that had been blended with added water, all three trials tested positive based on the high level of the precipitate. Other tests that tackle the quality of each trial include In Silico Testing, biuret protein test, alcohol test, COB test, and pH level testing.
A Study on Hybrid Electromechanical Actuators
An actuator [7,22,28,29] is a motion control mechanism. Depending on the type of actuator, it can convert one type of energy (e.g. chemical, electromagnetic, thermal) into mechanical energy. The field that laid the foundations for the realization of actuators is the field of electromechanics, whose evolution was common with that of actuators. Thus, a periodization of the electromechanics paradigm includes 3 major stages [7,6,25,28,29]: I.1830-1950 Old electromechanics. It is the period when the development of electric cars is significant, which imposed the appearance of classical or primary electromechanical drives. It was a generous nineteenth century, dominated by the scientific results of the triumvirate: Michel Faraday (initiator of fundamental empirical experiments in the history of electricity; the law of induction, of the principle of electric motor, of the magnetic circuit, initiator of electro-chemistry), James Clerk Maxwell, (the genius theorist who put into mathematical form the equations of electric and magnetic fields, as well as the connection between them), and Werner Siemens (engineer and capitalist genius manager who managed to exploit and validate the relationship research-technology-economic development), triumvirate that can be disputed in the sense that other scientists also made outstanding contributions to the history of electricity: Edison, Ampere, Ohm (to name but a few who do not exhaust a significant list). Industrial production of electric machines also appeared and the first signs that will announce the emergence of electromechanical actuators as a basis for military applications. II.1950-1970, Traditional electromechanics, in which electrical power drives appear, a theoretical and experimental development on the emergence of new material and electromechanical principles. Much military research (such as missile control or ship and torpedo control) influences and produces the transfer of applications in ordinary life, including the actuator subfield. III. 1970-2020, Avant-garde electromechanics, representing according to Thomas Kuhn's theory, a paradigm forcing [30]. It is worth noting the contributions of the new scientific revolution. - Specific technologies of miniaturization, by material deposition. - Elastomeric polymeric materials with the help of which it was possible to make electrostrictive actuators, - Very special means of investigation, mainly the development of microscopy, - Gradient of applications in the field of medical engineering, with outstanding contributions both in investigation and microsurgery, applications of actuators in biological micropumps, etc. [25,27,28,29].
