Indonesia has a typical rice processing method as part of the nation’s culture, namely ketupat. Ketupat is typical food made of rice wrapped in diamond shaped-woven coconut leaves and boiled in water. This article reviewed the variety of processing ketupat as well as changes in ketupat during storage of ketupat according to the results of research and related references. Traditionally, ketupat is cooked in boiling water for 5 hours. This is considered inefficient in terms of cooking fuel and time required for cooking. The efforts of modifying ketupat cooking method have been done to shorten processing time, such as cooking ketupat in pressure cooker for 30 minutes. The development of ready-to-cook ketupat or quick-cooking product in attractive package becomes a promising opportunity. Quick-cooking ketupat was made by immersing ketupat in salt, steaming, freezing and drying. The package of quick-cooking ketupat was designed using HDPE plastics made square shape that requires boiling period for 30 minutes. Ingredients and the amount of rice, the size of coconut leaves, immersion process and cooking technic affected the texture of ketupat produced. Ketupat is normally stored for 2 days in room temperature and 4-7 day if it is refrigerated. Spoilage of ketupat is due to microbiological and physical changes during storage. Starch retrogradation and increase in RS III may occur when ketupat is stored at low temperature.

Zanthoxylum acanthopodium, locally known as Andaliman, is exotic spices which grown in North Sumatera. Several investigation shown that the special taste and aroma comes from pericarp of Andaliman. However, the pericarp of Andaliman is easily degraded. The proper postharvest handling of Andaliman is necessary to preserve fresh Andaliman for long time. Previously, Andaliman has been preserved in packaging under room temperature storage. Further investigation of Andaliman preservation in packaging under low temperature storage would help reduces the postharvest losses. In this study, the physical changes of Andaliman in various packaging under low-temperature storage were observed. The results shown that within 2 days, the pericarp of Andaliman in paper packaging was shrunk, similarly found in control without packaging. Meanwhile, the pericarp of Andaliman in aluminum foil and PP plastic were found normal in day 3. This result indicated that in low-temperature, Andaliman in Aluminum foil was recommended for best postharvest handling.

Cryoinjuries are almost inevitable during the freezing of embryos. The present study examines the possibility of using high hydrostatic pressure to reduce substantially the freezing point of the embryo-holding solution, in order to preserve embryos at subzero temperatures, thus avoiding all the disadvantages of freezing. The pressure of 210 MPa lowers the phase transition temperature of water to -21°C. According to the results of this study, embryos can survive in high hydrostatic pressure environment at room temperature; the time embryos spend under pressure without significant loss in their survival could be lengthened by gradual decompression. Pressurisation at 0°C significantly reduced the survival capacity of the embryos; gradual decompression had no beneficial effect on survival at that stage. Based on the findings, the use of the phenomena is not applicable in this form, since pressure and low temperature together proved to be lethal to the embryos in these experiments. The application of hydrostatic pressure in embryo cryopreservation requires more detailed research, although the experience gained in this study can be applied usefully in different circumstances.

Photophysical properties of N719 and Z907, benchmark Ru-dyes used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells, were studied by static and time-resolved optical spectroscopy at room temperature and 160 K.

The study of the perovskite manganites La0.47Ca0.53Mn1-xCuxO3 with x = 0, 0.06, 0.09, and 0.13 has been done. The magnetic structure was determined using high-resolution neutron scattering at room temperature and low temperature. All samples were paramagnetic at room temperature and antiferromagnetic at low temperature. Using the SQUID Quantum Design, the samples showed that the doping of the insulating antiferromagnetic phase La0.47Ca0.53MnO3 with Cu doping resulted in the temperature transition from an insulator to metal state, and an antiferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase. The temperature transition from an insulator to metal state ranged from 23 to 100 K and from 200 to 230 K for the transition from an antiferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase.

This paper studies the properties of the blends composed of DCLR (direct coal liquefaction residue) and asphalt using two different processing methods, compares the regulation that the DCLR additive content and processing method take influence on the high-temperature properties, low-temperature properties and durability of the blends. It is found that the DCLR can improve the high-temperature properties of asphalt but degrade its low-temperature properties. The properties of blends composed of DCLR, asphalt and furfural extract oil are tested and analyzed by adding a certain amount of furfural extract oil into it, which shows that adding DCLR can improve the high-temperature properties of asphalt and reduce its low-temperature properties but can hardly cause any impact on the properties of the blends. In addition, the processing method has a direct influence on the properties of blends.

Molecule-based magnets are a broad, emerging class of magnetic materials that expand the materials properties typically associated with magnets to include low density, transparency, electrical insulation, and low-temperature fabrication, as well as combine magnetic ordering with other properties such as photoresponsiveness. Essentially all of the common magnetic phenomena associated with conventional transition-metal and rare-earth-based magnets can be found in molecule-based magnets. Although discovered less than two decades ago, magnets with ordering temperatures exceeding room temperature, very high (∼27.0 kOe or 2.16 MA/m) and very low (several Oe or less) coercivities, and substantial remanent and saturation magnetizations have been achieved. In addition, exotic phenomena including photoresponsiveness have been reported. The advent of molecule-based magnets offers new processing opportunities. For example, thin-film magnets can be prepared by means of low-temperature chemical vapor deposition and electrodeposition methods.

Available evidence suggests that (1) the stretching frequencies of highly-bent hydrogen bonds decrease with increasing temperature, regardless of whether the bonds are static or dynamic in character, to a single acceptor or to several competing acceptors; and (2) departures from symmetric trifurcation (or bifurcation) toward asymmetric situations lower the stretching frequency. In further support of these criteria isotopic probe ion spectra between 10 K and room temperature have been obtained for taurine and for trigonal (NH4)2MF6 (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Ti). Evidence of a low-temperature transition at 100(10) K in trigonal (NH4)2SnF6 is presented, and existence of the previously reported transition at 38.6 K in trigonal (NH4)2SiF6 is confirmed. Symmetry changes associated with these transitions are discussed.


Visual purple is soluble and stable in a mixture of glycerol and water (3:1). At room temperature the spectrum of such a solution is identical with that of the aqueous solution. At — 73° C the peak of the absorption curve is higher and narrower than at room temperature, and it is shifted towards longer waves. The product of photodecomposition at — 73° C has a spectrum in ­ dependent of pH and is at low temperatures thermostable and photostable, but at room temperature it decomposes therm ally to indicator yellow. The primary product appears to be identical with transient orange. The quantum yields of the photoreaction at low and at room temperature are of the same order.
