Accurate Predicting the Surface Tension of Vegetable-Oil-Based Fuels Using Gibbs’ Thermodynamic Additivity as an Alternative to QSPR by Nichaphat Sitthisuk, Kaokanya Sudaprasert, Suriya Phankosol, Vittaya Punsuvon

“…The six economic saturated/unsaturated vegetable oil samples (rapeseed, sunflower, soybean, palm, corn, and grapeseed oil) are used as the comparison cases for the predictive model of surface tension. The proposed model is formulated by the concept of the Gibbs energy additivity method (GEAM) which apply two properties of oils composition such as the number of carbon atoms (z) and the number of double bonds (nd) of fatty acid at various temperatures to predict surface tension through the regression model. …”

Invited review: Ruminal acidosis and its definition—A critical review by H.M. Golder, I.J. Lean

“…Historical confusion about the etiology and pathogenesis of ruminal acidosis led to definitions that are not fit for purpose, as acidic ruminal conditions solely characterized by ruminal pH determination at a single point fail to reflect the complexity of the condition. Use of a model based on integrated ruminal measures, including VFA, ammonia, lactic acid, and pH, for evaluating ruminal acidosis is fit for purpose, as indicated by meeting postulates for assessing metabolic disease, but requires a method to simplify application in the field. …”
