Sugar industries have huge potential to contribute the sustainable energy transition through electricity generation and production of biofuels. Sugar-producing countries generate volumes sugarcane bagasse as a byproduct production. In this study, performance an operating traditional sugar factory is analyzed for export potential. The study presents characteristics modern factories. challenges f...

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been intensively offered at our centre to patients (pts) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) from 2000, and the number of PD pts was noticed to raise. We aimed to analyse the PD population from the aspect of penetration and peritonitis rate during eleven years. Cumulative number of new RRT pts was 378 during the study period. We found high PD penetration rate: 53% (...

today power consumption is considered to be one of the important issues. therefore, its reduction plays a considerable role in developing systems. previous studies have shown that approximately 50% of total power consumption is used in cache memories. there is a direct relationship between power consumption and replacement quantity made in cache. the less the number of replacements is, the less...

The main limitation to the industrial scale hydrolysis of cellulose is the cost of cellulase production. This study evaluated cellulase and xylanase enzyme production by the cellulolytic mutant Penicillium echinulatum 9A02S1 using pretreated sugar cane bagasse as a carbon source. Most cultures grown with pretreated bagasse showed similar enzymatic activities to or higher enzymatic activities th...

Sucrose contributes to the key physical and sensory characteristics of cookies. Due negative health effects associated with excess sucrose consumption, replacement in baking applications is interest. In this study, nine variations rolled cookies were prepared (n = 3) using a control (C), Splenda for (SB), Equal (EB), Truvia (TR), Sweet’N Low (SNL), 1:1 (wt%) mixtures sweeteners (S). The charact...

Seven D-amino acids, including D-valine, D-phenylalanine, D-leucine, D-isoleucine, D-tryptophan, D-methionine, and D-alpha-aminobutyric acid, are markedly less stimulative than the corresponding L-isomers that can stimulate the labellar sugar receptor of the fleshfly. A distinct effect of len;th of the amino acid side chain is clearly observed. Esterification and amidation of the alpha-carboxyl...

Sugar has multiple roles in baked products; competing for water and as such reducing starch gelatinisation gluten development, behaving a fluid during cooking, recrystallising on cooling; which influence properties aeration, texture mouthfeel. Partial replacement with inulin, can provide beneficial nutritional functional properties. This paper investigated the degree of polymerisation (DP) two ...

Dietary fats have important effects on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Abundant evidence shows that partial replacement of saturated fatty acids (SAFA) with unsaturated fatty acids improves the blood lipid and lipoprotein profile and reduces the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Low-fat diets high in refined carbohydrates and sugar are not effective. Very long-chain polyunsaturate...

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for Native Americans. For several decades, the American population has fallen victim to poor nutritional habits, where healthy, natural foods have been replaced with unwholesome foods prepared with too much sugar, saturated fat and artificial additives. American Indian and Alaska Native populations have fared no better. Being forced onto rese...
