The physical and chemical characteristics of lards and other fats in relation to their culinary value III. For frying purposes

The main purpose of this study was to compare the frying life of lards and other fats when used under household conditions. Doughnuts and potato chips were cooked in the fats. Certain chemical and physical constants of the fats were determined before and after cooking to find the extent of change during their use. In addition, the amount of fat absorbed by the doughnuts was recorded and an effort made to determine whether the degree of absorption was correlated with the chemical and physical characteristics of these fats, and if so, with which of these characteristics. In another unit of the study doughnuts were cooked at three temperatures, and the extent of the chemical and physical changes in the fats, due to the temperatures employed, was determined. The doughnuts cooked at these three temperatures were also scored for palatability

The physical and chemical characteristics of lards and other fats in relation to their culinary value I. Shortening value in pastry and cookies

These studies on the relationship of the physical and chemical characteristics and constants of lards and other fats to their culinary value were started during the fall of 1932 and completed during the summer of 1937. The culinary tests were divided into three groups as follows: 1. The shortening power of lards and other fats in pastry and cookies. 2. the use of lards and other fats in plain cake, 3. the frying life of lards compared with other fats. This section of the report presents the studies relating to the shortening value of lards as compared with other fats. The work has been done in various units or sections over a period of years by Lowe and the foods research fellows of the Foods and Nutrition Subsection

Accessory spleen as lead point in intussusception

A 15-year-old boy, who had an episode of abdominal colic 4 years earlier, presented now with a week-long episode of abdominal pain. A computed tomographic scan confirmed the presence of an intussusception. Surprisingly, the surgery identified an accessory spleen as the lead point. At 9 months follow-up, the young boy has had no further abdominal discomfort. This report adds accessory spleen to the list of very rare pathological lead points in intussusception

Cross platform networking frameworking to simplify mobile application development

The need for sharing information among mobile devices exists in many applications, and almost every data exchange between these devices involve the same requirements: a means for discovering other mobile devices in a wireless network, establishing logical connections, communicating application data, and gathering information related to the physical connection. This paper presents a cross platform open-source developer-oriented framework that acts as a support layer for host discovery, data communication among devices, and quality of service monitoring. Its purpose is to simplify the issues related to networking for mobile application developers. Currently, the framework is implemented for different platforms, such as Android, J2SE, and J2ME.VI Workshop Innovación en Sistemas de Software (WISS)Red de Universidades con Carreras en Informática (RedUNCI

InfoUNLP3D: an interactive experience for freshman students

The use of technology in educational environments is becoming a common standard. Current high-end mobile devices provide the necessary hardware to allow the execution of complex and resource-demanding 3D applications, at least in their simplest forms under low-end devices. Under this context, a multiplatform 3D mobile application is proposed, presenting a complete virtual scenario of the Faculty of Informatics (Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina), with the main purpose of being an interactive guide for students. The application provides a navigational model of the building, several playing modes in order to get to know the facilities, and updated information about classrooms and courses.VIII Workshop Innovación en Sistemas de Software (WISS).Red de Universidades con Carreras en Informática (RedUNCI
