Lactobacillus acidophilus in Alginate Matrix during exposure to Simulated Gastro - Intestinal Juice ------------------------------------------------- Abstract (English) This investigation reports the effect of microencapsulation using different concentration of sodium alginate (1‚ 1‚5‚ 2%) on the tolerance of probiotic Lactobacillus acidophilus under simulated gastrointestinal environments. Microencapsulation provided better protection at simulated conditions of gastric and bile salt. Higher surviving numbers

There are many themes in "Death of a Naturalist" and these are often played out against imagery‚ situations‚ descriptions and a background that constantly evoke the texture of Irish rural life.

Heaney`s childhood world‚ true to life on an Irish farm in the forties‚ was a place where men and women had definite

chose this painting because it appeals to my sense of aesthetics and also it has the most interesting use of texture. This painting is an excellent example of our sight being able to activate other senses. The presentation of the translucent fruit and fuzzy skin is so convincing that we have a visual and a tactile reaction and for some‚ a sensation of taste. The painter has used actual texture in this painting. In this essay‚ I will talk about the subject matter and then the content. I will also be
