The influence of economic and market added values on financial performance of the firms listed in Tehran Stock Exchange

Economic added value and market added value are among the criteria for evaluating performance of management. The current researcher-based study has been done through selecting and investigating 50 top active food industrial companies listed in Tehran Exchange in a 5-year period. In the present research, while accounting for performance evaluation index theoretically, those indices have been tested, necessary evidence has been presented in order to assist capital market activists and evaluate performance of agencies logically for making decisions. Findings indicate that economic added value and market added value affect stock returns and correlation between economic added value and returns on shares is higher

The investigation of the relationship between managers’ applied skills and entrepreneurship development: A case study in West Azerbaijan’s food industrial firms

Today, management and managers’ skills have two wide domains: psychological dimension through which managerial skills are considered as personality characters and empirical studies which have studied this construct comprehensively and precisely and have offered valid evaluation methods for its assessment. The current research is applied regarding its aim, descriptive with respect to subject characteristics, survey in terms of time and field study considering data collection. In this research, questionnaires are used to collect data. Research population consists of managers working in firms active in food industry of West Azerbaijan, Iran. Regarding that all-counting method is not possible, sample size calculated as 228 using Cochran method. The present research aims at investigating 3 hypotheses tested through Spearman correlation coefficient and SPSS. Results obtained from hypotheses test indicate that there is a positive significant relationship between managers’ applied skills (self-awareness, self-motivation and social awareness) and entrepreneurship development

The impact of liquidity and transparency in the financial markets: A case study in Tehran stock exchange

One of the topics addressed in the capital market is liquidity and transparency in the financial markets. Transparency is one of the major issues in Trading based on the forum, and electronics system. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of access to transparent stock information for decision-making. Qualitative approach was used for sample selection, data collection, analysis and conclusions. Data collection methods and instruments are in-depth interviews. Sampling method was purposive, useful and was used for determining the size of the sample theory saturation. Results obtained from this study indicate that liquidity and transparency are effective in information about quality increase

Growth Optimization of Lactobacillus plantarum T5jq301796.1, an Iranian Indigenous Probiotic in Lab Scale Fermenter

Background and Objective: Lactobacillus plantarum is one of the probiotics species used in functional food products. These bacteria or their purified bacteriocins are used as biological preservatives in the food industry. The first step in production of an array of probiotic products is optimizing production in fermentors. This study aimed to examine factors affecting the in vitro growth optimization of Lactobacillus plantarum T5JQ301796.1 in a lab scale fermentor.Materials and Methods: Following 24 hours of anaerobic culture of the lactobacillus at 37°C, the pre-culture was ready and was inoculated to a 5 liter fermentor at 37°C and stirred at 40 rpm. Then factors affecting lactobacillus growth including carbon and nitrogen sources and pH were studied. The results were interpreted using response surface methodology (RSM), and optimal conditions for the equipment were determined.Results and Conclusion: For optimal growth of Lactobacillus plantarum T5JQ301796.1 in lab scale fermentor, the optimal conditions were 25.96 gl-1 of glucose, 1.82% of yeast extract, pH of 7.26, and stirring at 40 rpm at optimum temperature between 37-40°C. In this condition, maximum viable cell in the batch fermentation was 1.25×1010 CFU ml-1. Application of central composite design for the growth optimization of this bacterium led to maximum viable cells equal to 1.25×1010 CFU ml-1. So the mentioned features can lead to optimum industrial scale production and usage of this probiotic strain in probiotic products.Conflict of interest: The authors declare that there is no conflict of interest
