Low rainfall rates are becoming increasingly frequent because of climate change, causing droughts and threatening world food security. For popcorn, drought is the most limiting abiotic factor for plant’s growth development. Thus, water deficit directly impacts crop productivity. Based on knowledge genetic basis traits involved in stages popcorn germination seedling development under stress, gen...

Several aspects disturb operation of industrial facilities which can cause severe impact on their efficiency and productivity. In some cases, the expose to serious safety concerns. Therefore, Industrial should always plan invest in reliability sustainability daily operation. Polymerization is one unavoidable risks that be unpredictable several issues operating facilities. On other hand, effecti...

The objective of this study was to determine protein quality and hematological properties of infant diets formulated from local food materials. The food materials were obtained locally, fermented, and milled into flour. The flours were mixed as 70% popcorn and 30% African locust bean (FPA), 70% popcorn and 30% bambara groundnut (FPB), and 70% popcorn, 20% bambara groundnut, and 10% African locu...

These studies were undertaken to determine if convulsant doses of i.c.v. vs i.v. administered NMDA exhibit differential specificity for anatomical regions of the brain in stimulating c-fos. In rats i.c.v. or i.v. NMDA produced behaviorally similar clonic (popcorn) convulsions associated with transient increases in c-fos mRNA in different brain areas. Transcription of c-fos mRNA peaked at 30 min...
