recent studies demonstrate that aluminide coatings are beneficial to wear and erosion resistance and also that oxygen-active elements such as yttrium can remarkably improve this resistance. in this research, the micro-hardness of the aluminide coatings with and without yttrium on 1045 steel was investigated using a micro-mechanical probe. wear of the samples was measured using a pin-on-disk tri...

rumen cannula were fed 2 equal meals per day: wheat straw (475 and 95 g, respectively) and a mixture containing 59% olive hard crust, 40% wheat bran and 1 % NaCl (4.2 and 1.5 kg). In vitro degradation (table I) of the less digestible substrates was higher in camels than in sheep. In sacco degradation, corrected for microbial contamination, confirmed this result. In sacco degradation of soya bea...

224 Journal of Plant Registrations, Vol 2, No. 3, September 2008 ‘Faller’ (Reg. No. CV-1026, PI 648350) hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L.) was tested as experimental line ND805, developed at North Dakota State University (NDSU), and released by the North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (NDAES). In addition to researchers at NDSU, USDA-ARS researchers at Fargo, ND, contri...

A technique to rapidly determine the moisture content of hard red winter wheat, Triticum aestivum L., independent of densityy is presented. The complex impedance of bulk samples at 1 and 10 MHz was used along with a density-independent function to predict moistures ranging from approximately 11 to 22% in samples with bulk densities ranging from 0.65 to 0.85 glcm^. Calibration was performed on w...

Cereal Chern. 61(5): 423-427 Whole wheat and flour were fermented to make alcohol. The residue, after alcohol was distilled, was fractionated into distillers' grains, centrifuged solids, and distillers' solubles. Distillers' grains and centrifuged solids had protein contents of 29 and 57%, respectively, and accounted for Fermentation of cereal grains to make alcohol produces a protein-rich mate...

The objective of this study was to determine how harvest maturity of whole-crop cereals commonly used in swath grazing systems in western Canada affects yield, chemical composition, and in situ digestibility. We hypothesized that the increase in yield with advancing maturity would not offset the decline in digestibility and, thus, the yield of effectively degradable DM (EDDM) would decline with...

Starch and cellulose are among the best known renewable reinforcing components. Scientists are continuously looking for various renewable sources such as flax, hemp, jute, and corn hulls with polymer matrixes to form composite materials and make structural biocomposites a reality. Wheat is a major cereal grain in the US and the world. During wheat milling, a large amount of wheat bran, a by-pro...
