Water hyacinth is an aquatic plant, which can grow rapidly along the water area with rich of nutrients. Mostly this plant be alternative ingredient for fish feed because it contains various nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, minerals, amino acids, fatty secondary metabolites. However, plant-based, fiber and anti-nutritional factors tannins phytic acids degrade quality decrease g...

Background and Objective: With the development of world economy integration cultures, Chinese cigar market has shown a significant upward trend. However, high-quality leaves are mostly produced in Dominica, Cuba, Nicaragua other places. In contrast, have problems such as insufficient aroma, which become one main factors restricting cigars. Adding medium to ferment is traditional method industry...

Abstract. The aim of this study was to analyze changes in botanical and chemical composition, as well vitro rumen fermentation characteristics an upland grassland exposed climate controlled CO2 concentration, air temperature precipitation conditions. Grassland a future scenario coupled with treatments (390 520 ppm) from the beginning spring. During summer, extreme climatic event (ECE; 2 weeks +...

Slaughterhouse Blood (SHB) is a rich source of protein, but it requires a suitable processing before its use as an ingredient in animal feed formulations. In this study, SHB was fermented using whey or pure culture of Lactobacillus acidophilus as the fermentation inoculums. Mixtures of SHB, fermentation inoculums and molasses were incubated at 35°C and microbiological and biochemical changes we...

The information presented in this publication represents current research findings on the production of glucose and xylose from straw and subsequent direct fermentation of both sugars to ethanol. Agricultural straw was subjected to thermal or alkali pulping prior to enzymatic saccharification. When wheat straw (WS) was treated at 170 degrees C for 30-60 min at a water-to-solids ratio of 7:1, th...

Carrot slices were subjected to one of the following experiments prior to deep-frying: (A) dehydration/rehydration, (B) soaking in different antioxidants, and (C) fermentation with/without blanching. There were no significant differences (P > or = 0.05) in carotenoid contents among carrot chips treated with/without dehydration. Soaking in sodium metabisulfite resulted in the highest carotenoid ...

BACKGROUND The effect of commonly ingested alcoholic beverages on gastric acid output and release of gastrin in humans is unknown. AIM AND METHODS In 16 healthy humans the effect of some commonly ingested alcoholic beverages produced by fermentation plus distillation (for example, whisky, cognac, calvados, armagnac, and rum) or by alcoholic fermentation (beer, wine, champagne, martini, and sh...

karkhe watershed (kw) with more than 5 million hectares recently encountered many problems in the natural, social and man-made habitats. unsuitable use of land, soil erosion and lack of rainfall are the most destructive factors in this watershed affecting the whole region fundamentally. as expected, these problems have caused a considerable fall in biodiversity in fauna and flora, a decrease in...

sensitivity analysis might be considered as one of inevitable steps in modelling since it would help to determine the behaviour of model, which was developed for further application. sensitivity analysis was not paid much attention in studies that have been conducted for modelling the relationship between stream water quality and land cover except machine learning techniques such as artificial ...

conclusions according to the average of wqi index, quality of water was good in station number one, medium in station number two, and bad in the rest of stations. according to the wilcox index, qualities of water in third station were medium and in the rest were good. results by using wqi, the best water quality was reported in station number one with the scalar quantity of 71.11 (water with be...
