Our aim was to predict tooth surface loss in individuals without the need to conduct clinical examinations. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were used to construct a mathematical model. Input data consisted of age, smoker status, type of tooth brush, brushing, and consumption of pickled food, fizzy drinks, orange, apple, lemon, and dried seeds. Output data were the sum of tooth surface loss sc...

Effects of foliar spray NAA, 2, 4-D and urea on fruit yield quality Citrus limon (L.) Burm. cv. Assam lemon was studied. Nine treatments were imposed in RBD for two seasons (summer winter). Among the T6 (NAA @ 20 ppm + 2,4-D 1% urea) maximum pulp content (81.58 g/fruit), juice (40.47 ml/fruit), reducing sugar (0.51%) ascorbic acid (48.56 mg/100 g) recorded. Whereas, TSS (9.88%), total (1.66%) w...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of dried mulberry (Morus alba) pulp with high water-soluble carbohydrate (WSC) content on nutrient substance composition, pH and silage acids alfalfa silage. The used in harvested 10% flowering period ensiled by mixing at different ratios (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5% 15%). that for three months analyzed end this period, values measured contro...

Mango (Mangifera indica) and pineapple (Ananas comosus) are two important fruits with many industrial uses excellent sensory, nutritional functional characteristics. In this research work, the development of intermediate moisture edible leathers obtained by convective drying technology mixture mango pulp at 60 70 °C was carried out, evaluating their physicochemical characterization stability un...

We developed a computer model for simulating the population dynamics of the almond moth, Cadra cautella (Walker). The model incorporates previously published life history data for the almondmothdeveloping on storedpeanuts, Arachis hypogaeaL., including stage-speciÞc immature developmental time and survival and adult longevity and fecundity. The model was modiÞed so that it also could be used to...

Chemical and morphological characterization of different parts of banana plant(Musa paradisica) (peduncle, leaf stalk and pseudo stem) were carried out in orderto assess their potentiality for chemical pulp. Each portion was tested forextractives, sodium hydroxide solubility, ash, lignin, cellulose and pentosancontents as well as their fiber length and width. These segmented parts werecharacter...

in order to determine the effects of substitution of barley grain with dried citrus pulp (dcp) on eight lactating holstein cows with average body weight of 550 ± 50 kg and 75 ± 15 days in milk were allocated to 4 dietary treatments, which were diet; the control with 0% dried citrus pulp (dcp) and 15% barley grain, diet 2, 3 and 4 containing 5, 10 and 15% dcp and 10, 5 and 0% barley grain respec...
