In 2006, an experiment examining families belonging to the first selection stage of the Sugar Cane Breeding Program of Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro/Rede Interuniversitária para o Desenvolvimento do Setor Sucroalcooleiro was conducted. Families and plants within families were evaluated to select superior plants for subsequent stages of the breeding program. The experiment was arr...

Consumption of imported wines has been on the increase in Nigeria. This has further dwindled the foreign reserve. This necessitated this work to study some wine parameters of wine produced from mixed fruit juice of Mango and Pineapple. Wines are mostly produced from single fruit must. The wine produced from mixed fruit juices of Mango and Pineapple had a good quality. The total dissolved solid ...

Abstract The department of Piura is the main mango producer in Peru accounting for 66.7% national crop. objective study was to characterize fruits forty varieties preserved since 1969 northwestern Peru. were harvested at El Chira Agrarian Experimental Station, Department from December 2019 January 2020. Thirteen quantitative fruit variables evaluated: width, thickness, length, weight, seed perc...

High energy consumption has an impact on the crisis caused by decline in fossil reserves, so that Indonesia must have other alternatives form of biofuels, namely bioethanol. Knowing effect fermentation time ethanol content, pH value, and brix content obtained from sugarcane juice is purpose this study. Using completely randomized design (CRD) with factor. Research shows acidity (pH), but no sug...

The reliability of a software system is to a high degree determined by the reliability of the software components comprising the system [KriMat97]. For a software component to be reliable it must be able recover various exceptions or failures that may arise at run-time, i.e. it must be fault tolerant. Code for exception detection, handling, and signalling often amounts to a substantial portion ...

AIMS To determine acetic acid, acetaldehyde and glycerol production by wine yeast throughout Icewine fermentation. The expression of yeast cytosolic aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALD3 and ALD6) and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1) were followed to relate metabolites in the wines to expression patterns of these genes. METHODS AND RESULTS Icewine juice (38.8 degrees Brix, 401 +/- 7 g l(-1) ...

Mannitol is a major deterioration product of Leuconstoc mesenteroides bacterial metabolism of sucrose and fructose from both sugarcane and sugar beet. The effect of crystallization conditions on the mannitol partition coefficient (K(eff)) between impure sucrose syrup and crystal has been investigated in a batch laboratory crystallizer and a batch pilot plant-scale vacuum pan. Laboratory crystal...
