The aim of this study was to explore the efficiency of a mechano-enzymatic deconstruction of two macroalgae species for sugars and bioethanol production, by using a new enzymatic cocktail (Haliatase) and two types of milling modes (vibro-ball: VBM and centrifugal milling: CM). By increasing the enzymatic concentration from 3.4 to 30 g/L, the total sugars released after 72 h of hydrolysis increa...

gladiolus (gladiolus grandiflorus l.), a popular bulbous cut flower, has high demand in both domestic (pakistani) as well as international markets. five potential, exotic cultivars of gladiolus, ‘cantate’, ‘corveira’, ‘eminence’, ‘essential’ and ‘fado’ were evaluated to determine the cultivar effects on yield and quality, to compare their relative performance and recommend their suitability for...

An experiment was conducted to standardize the different mowing height and inorganic nutrients for better establishment of lawn grass Zoysia matrella. The laid out in Factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with 2 replications at Botanical garden, Department Floriculture Landscape Architecture, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. Treatments included (1 inch, 1.5 inch 2.5 inch) leve...

Temperature-dependent zeolite synthesis has revealed a unique surface morphology, surface area and pore size which influence the immobilization of urease on gold electrode supports for biosensor fabrication. XRD characterization has identified zeolite X (Na) at all crystallization temperatures tested. However, N₂ adsorption and desorption results showed a pore size and pore volume of zeolite X ...

Nano-aggregates of cobalt nickel oxysulfide (CoNi)OxSy have been synthesized by hydrothermal processing and exhibited specific and areal capacitance as high as 592 F g(-1) and 1628 mF cm(-2), respectively, at a current density of 0.5 A g(-1)/1.375 mA cm(-2). They also show high capacitance retention upon extended cycling at high rates.

this study was conducted to investigate the hair production and fleece characteristics of hairy goats according to the sex and age of animals. the material of the study consisted one total data of 73 hair goats, which were between more than one year-old and one year-old lori goats from both sexes (26 males and 47 females). the overall fleece weight, fiber length, lock length, washing yield, hai...

This study was carried out during May 2010 – April 2011 in order to determine various biological properties of red mullet occurring in the Eastern Black Sea region. The average length and weight of 1435 specimens were determined as 13.13 cm and 23.14 g, respectively. Weight-length relationship was determined as W = 0.0088 L3.0338. The age distribution of this population ranged between I and VII...
