Effect of high frequency ultrasounds on lycopene and total phenolic concentration, antioxidant properties and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of tomato juice
Tomato juice was subjected to high frequency ultrasounds(378 and 583 kHz)at increasing energy densities (up to 250 MJ/m3). Results relevant to the treatments at high frequency providing an energy density of 250 MJ/m3 were compared with those obtained at 24 kHz delivering the same energy density. Lycopene and total phenolic concentration, as well as the α-glucosidase inhibitory activityof tomato juice, were not affected by ultrasound regardless the frequency and energy density. However, the antioxidant properties were negatively affected by high frequency ultrasounds

BLACK HOLES IN THREE-DIMENSIONAL DILATON GRAVITY THEORIES
Three dimensional black holes in a generalized dilaton gravity action theory
are analysed. The theory is specified by two fields, the dilaton and the
graviton, and two parameters, the cosmological constant and the Brans-Dicke
parameter. It contains seven different cases, of which one distinguishes as
special cases, string theory, general relativity and a theory equivalent to
four dimensional general relativity with one Killing vector. We study the
causal structure and geodesic motion of null and timelike particles in the
black hole geometries and find the ADM masses of the different solutions.Comment: 19 pages, latex, 4 figures as uuencoded postscript file
