A value chain is a series of events that takes a raw material and with each step adds value to it. Global interest in the application of natural gas (NG) in production and transportation has grown dramatically, representing a long-term, low-cost, domestic, and secure alternative to petroleum-based fuels. Many technological solutions are currently considered on the market or in development, whic...

theaim of the current study was to assess effects of different levels of origanum vulgare (0, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg/l) on kinetics of gas production, some ruminal digestion and fermentation parameters, methane production and also to determine its potential in controlling rumen acidosis using in vitro method in four separate phases. in the first phase, the asymptote of gas production (a) and...

this study was conducted to compare fungi and whole rumen microorganisms (wrm) digestibility of treated sugarcane pith by fungi and of buffalos and holstein cows. dry matter (dm), neutral and acid detergent fiber (ndf and adf) digestibilities of steam treated sugarcane pith (stp) by fungi and wrm were compared with a two-steps digestion technique, gas production (gp) and specific rumen fungi cu...

palm date leaves were processed with lime in a processing reactor in a factorial arrangement of treatments (3 × 3) with 3 levels of temperatures (40, 80 and 100°c) and time periods (80, 160, and 240 minutes) in a completely randomized design. fermentation parameters measured using gas production technique. with increasing pretreatment time and temperature lignin content reduced from 13.0 percen...

AIM The present study was conducted to examine the rumen modulatory effect of thyme, clove and peppermint oils on rumen fermentation pattern in vitro using roughage based diet. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thyme, clove and peppermint oils were tested at concentration of 0, 30, 300 and 600 mg/l (ppm) of total culture fluid using in vitro gas production technique in wheat straw based diet (concentrate...

Aim: Present study was conducted to examine the modulatory effect of different essential oils on rumen fermentation pattern in vitro using wheat straw based diet (concentrate: wheat straw 50:50). Materials and Methods: Four essential oils i.e. cinnamon, garlic, oregano and rosemary oils were tested at concentration of 0, 30, 300 and 600 mg/litre (ppm) of total culture fluid using in vitro gas p...

Biohydrogen production is measured using a variety of techniques, ranging from low cost intermittent gas release methods where yields are usually reduced due to high partial pressures of hydrogen, to expensive respirometers that can eliminate pressure buildup. A new large headspace volume technique was developed that reduces the potential for hydrogen gas inhibition without the need for a respi...

compared to other methods of vaccine production, (e.g. culture flask and bioreactor system), the roller culture method for producing rabies vaccine is simpler, and the equipment easier to install and maintain, and also in the event of contamination of one roller, the entire batch need not be discarded. this system provides a much larger surface area than the culture flask, and also ensures a mu...

callus and suspension cultures of lavandula angustifolia mill. (lamiaceae) were established and the effect of different culture media on growth rate was investigated. terpenoids added to suspension culture to investigate their biotrans-formation. all samples were analyzed by gas chromatography (gc) and gc-mass spectroscopy (ms). octan-1-ol, citronellol, linalool, borneol and geraniol were biotr...
