Ever increasing population and industrialization has resulted in heavy pollution and waste generation. The main aim of this project lies in waste management and synthesis of pectinase enzyme which plays a crucial role in sewage treatment. Twenty moulds were isolated from decaying fruits and municipal waste soil sample on SDA and were further screened for pectinolytic enzyme production. Screenin...

The aim of this study was to investigate the level of effectiveness and initial oral English communication needs of Indonesian learners when using OEC to perform the learning activities in the business administration department of Porliteknik Negri Ujung Pandang in Makassar. Conceptually, the needs of learners cover aspect of want, lack and necessity that will be developed as the indicators of ...

This study was carried out to determine the impact of type of protein supplementation to the ration on pubertal characteristics of male goat kids. Eighteen crossbred (Nubian × Saanen) weaned male goat kids were distributed to 3 ration groups. Group I (n=6) was kept on a ration supplemented with ground nut cakes, group II (n=6) on a ration supplemented with sesame cakes and group II (n=6) on a r...

A probiotic yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was incorporated in basal diet prepared with fish meal, soybean meal, groundnut oil cake, corn flour, tapioca flour, egg albumin, cod liver oil and vitamin Bcomplex, at four different concentrations (10g, 20g, 30g and 40g kg) and fed to Macrobrachium rosenbergii post larvae (PL) for 90 days. The effect of this probiotic incorporation on the growth and...

The capability of supercritical CO2 to extract edible oil from handmade Argan press cake was investigated. aim is enable Moroccan cooperatives improve their economic situation by valuing the argan cake, which nowadays considered as a waste, applying clean extraction process. Extraction experiments were conducted at 300 and 400 bar, 333 K 0.14 kg/h on dried biomass. fatty acids tocopherols compo...

Jatropha curcas seed cake is a low-value by-product resulting from biodiesel production. The seed cake is highly toxic, but it has great potential for biotechnology applications as it is a repository of biomolecules that could be important in agriculture, medicine, and industry. To explore this potential, a novel trypsin inhibitor called JcTI-I was purified by fractionation of the crude extract...

Olive waste cake (OWC) is underestimated as an agricultural waste. In this work, OWC extract were obtained by ethanol. Antioxidant efficacy of ethanolic OWC extract at levels of 100, 200, 400 and 600 ppm were studied. Samples of sunflower oil mixed with OWC extract were intermittent heated at 180±5°C for 4 hr / day, for 5 consecutive days and has been assayed for stabilization of sunflower oil ...

The present study was conducted to isolate and characterize the proteases from seven leguminous seeds: soybean, lentil, black gram, green gram, bengal gram, groundnut and pea bean. We elaborated the easy procedure for isolation of protease from leguminous seeds by using (NH4)2SO4 precipitation. The effect of pH and temperature of protease activity were determined. This study revealed that the p...

During two years, four samples per year were collected in Vietnam from rice bran, cassava residue, brewer's grain, tofu residue, soybean meal, coconut cake, sweet potato vines and water spinach for chemical analysis and assessment of water holding capacity (WHC). The selected feedstuffs represent fibre-rich plant sources and agro-industry co-products commonly used in pig feeding in Vietnam. The...

Drought stress has adverse effects on growth, water relations, photosynthesis and yield of groundnut. WRKY transcription factors (TFs) are the plant-specific TFs which regulate several down-stream stress-responsive genes and play an essential role in plant biotic and abiotic stress responses. We found that WRKY3 gene is highly up-regulated under drought stress conditions and therefore isolated ...
