Dietary supplements are products taken by mouth that contain an ingredient intended to supplement the diet, such as vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, and substances such as enzymes, organ tissues, and metabolites. Dietary supplements come in many forms, including extracts, concentrates, tablets, capsules, gel caps, liquids, and powders. They have special requirements for labeling. In the U.S., the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 states that dietary supplements are considered foods, not drugs. (Note that some dietary supplements are used in conventional medicine for example, folic acid... 

Fermentation generates heat, and red wines must have some type of temperature control during their fermentation. They must not be allowed to get too hot or to become too cold. Ough and Amerine (18) recommended temperatures of 18°-29° C and found that cap temperatures can exceed liquid temperatures by over 6° C. In large stainless steel fermentors, the author has noted cap-liquid temperature differences of 11°.

A volatile oil contains a relatively large fraction of lighter and intermediate oomponents which vaporise easily. With a small drop in pressure below the bubble point, the relative amount of liquid to gas in the two-phase mixture drops rapidly, as shown in the phase diagram by the wide spacing of the iso-vol lines. At reservoir pressures below the bubble point, gas is released In the reservoir, and Is known as solution gas, since above the bubble point this gas was contained in solution. Some of this liberated gas will flow towards the producing wells, while some will remain in the reservoir and migrate towards the crest of the structure to form a secondary gas cap. 

Flard spherocylinders (cylinders witli hemispherical end caps) were studied using computer simulations [118]. In addition to a nematic phase, such particles also display a smectic-A phase, in which tire particles are arranged in liquid-like layers. To observe tliis transition, ratlier monodisperse particles are needed. The smectic-A phase was indeed observed in suspensions of TMV particles [17]. 

The latter is connected above to a water-condenser and below to a flask which contains a liquid of appropriate boiling-point. The inner tube is connected to a water-pump. A more satisfactory pistol (Fig. 48(B)) consists of a wide glass tube A closed at each end by ground-glass caps. 

The properties of several representative liquid-based ion-selective electrodes are presented in Table 11.3. An electrode using a liquid reservoir can be stored in a dilute solution of analyte and needs no additional conditioning before use. The lifetime of an electrode with a PVC membrane, however, is proportional to its exposure to aqueous solutions. For this reason these electrodes are best stored by covering the membrane with a cap containing a small amount of wetted gauze to... 

Historically the most common gas disperser for cross-flow plates has been the bubble cap. This device has a built-in seal which prevents liquid drainage at low gas-flow rates. Typical bubble caps are shown in Fig. 14-20. Gas flows up through a center riser, reverses flow under the cap, passes downward through the annulus between riser and cap, and finally passes into the liquid through a series of openings, or slots, in the lower side of the cap. 

The peripheral stiffening zone (tray ring) is generally 25 to 50 mm (1 to 2 in) wide and occupies 2 to 5 percent of the cross section, the fraction decreasing with increase in plate diameter. Peripheiy waste (Fig. 14-28) occurs primarily with bubble-cap trays and results from the inabihty to fit the cap layout to the circular form of the plate. Valves and perforations can be located close to the wall and little dead area results. Typical values of the fraction of the total cross-sectional area available for vapor dispersion and contact with the liquid for cross-flow plates with a chord weir equal to 75 percent of the column diameter are given in Table 14-6.
