Maize is one of the important cereal crops in the world agricultural economy both as food grains for human and fodder and feed for cattle and poultry. Maize grain contains about 72% starch, 10% protein, 4.8% oil, 5.8% fiber, 3.0% sugar and 1.7% ash (Choudhary, 1993). Along with this, it is rich in vitamin A, vitamin E, nicotinic acid, riboflavin and contains fairly high phosphorus than rice and...

In this study, the trace amounts of erythrosine, as a food dye is determined by cloud point extraction-scanometry (CPE-Scanometry) as a new, facile, available, fast, sensitive, and low cost method. The method is based on the CPE of analyte from aqueous solution, diluting the extracted surfactant-rich phase with ethanol, transfer to Plexiglascell and scanning the cells containing the analyte sol...

In food safety and regulation, there is a need for an automated system to be able to make predictions on which adulterants (unauthorized substances in food) are likely to appear in which food products. For example, we would like to know that it is plausible for Sudan I, an illegal red dye, to adulter "strawberry ice cream", but not "bread". In this work, we show a novel application of deep neur...

Although many studies of Drosophila melanogaster report an effect of diet upon lifespan, it is assumed rather than know that adults maintained on restricted diet acquire fewer nutrients. Diet is restricted in practice by feeding flies a medium where nutrients are diluted and some early reports suggest that flies on diluted medium compensate with increased food intake to consume equal calories o...

low-cost grapefruit peel (agricultural waste) was used for removal of reactive blue19 dye fromaqueous solutions. the process was studied as a function of contact time, initial dye concentration andph. adsorption process was attained to the equilibrium within 45 min for initial dye concentrations of 50,75, and 100 mg l-1. an acidic medium was the optimum condition for adsorption of dye at roomte...

search of new food-grade pH sensitive formulations, red beet extract rich in betacyanin was included different inorganic matrices based on silica and aluminosilicate to improve the stability dye. By direct method encapsulation pigments support, stabilizing agents such as inclusion complex forming ?-cyclodextrin ascorbic acid were added. The post loading system assumes synthesis porous powders a...

Abstract Background The high quality of antibody (Ab) is critical for an immunoassay; usually, Ab with low affinity often regarded as a “bad” one in the immunoassay development. How to use develop highly sensitive still huge challenge. Methods In this study, heterologous strategy was designed enhance sensitivity detection banned dye, rhodamine B (RB), fraudulent food. RB could not recognize by ...
