Optical sensor data can be used to determine changes in anthocyanins, chlorophyll and soluble solids content (SSC) apple production. In this study, visible near-infrared spectra (729 975 nm) were transformed SSC values by advanced multivariate calibration models i.e., partial least square regression (PLSR) order test the substitution of destructive chemical analyses through non-destructive opti...

water is a unique natural resource among all sources available on earth. it plays an important role in economic development and the general well-being of the country. this study aimed at using the application of water quality index in evaluating the ground water quality innorth-east area of jaipur in pre and post monsoon for public usage. total eleven physico–chemical characteristics; total dis...

conventional processes of food dewatering, such as thermal, have undesirable and destruction effects on vitamins, aromatic compounds and pigments. in addition, they are accompanied with some technological complications and energy consumption. thus, food concentration processes are directed to non-thermal techniques or methods with reduced heat effects. superabsorbents are highly hydrophilic pol...

In the present work, the fresh juice of black mulberry (Morus nigra) was tested for antimicrobial activity against various pathogenic microorganisms. Total antioxidant contents, total phenolic contents, total anthocyanins, trace minerals, total acid contents, total solids and ascorbic acid content were also evaluated. The results showed good antimicrobial activity both for Grampositive and Gram...

Single-chamber air-cathode microbial fuel cells (MFCs) were used to generate electricity from fermented primary sludge. Fermentation (30 °C, 9 days) decreased total suspended solids (26.1-16.5 g/L), volatile suspended solids (24.1-15.3g/L) and pH (5.7-4.5), and increased conductivity (2.4-4.7 mS/cm), soluble COD (2.66-15.5 g/L), and volatile fatty acids (1.9-10.1g/L). To lower the COD and incre...

Abstract The estuaries of Banten Bay have sandy sediment, and their main activity is fisheries. In order to maintain fishery productivity, good water quality required. sediment in this location can affect conditions at the point residue content. This study aims reveal solids content Bay. A survey was conducted four estuaries, namely Karangantu, Wadas, Cengkok, Pamong. TDS were measured situ Apr...

Several studies have revealed that fruit-zone leaf removal could change the microclimate of grapevine growth, thereby causing complex effects on fruit composition. This study analyzed profiles volatiles in Cabernet Sauvignon (Vitis vinifera L.) grapes exposed to treatment at different phenological periods three continuous years. The treatments (leaf before flowering, after and veraison) were ap...
