A comprehensive characterization of lipids in wheat straw.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The chemical composition of the lipids in wheat straw was studied in detail by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Important discrepancies with the data reported in previous papers were found. The predominant lipids identified were series of long-chain free fatty acids (25% of total extract), followed by series of free fatty alcohols (ca. 20%). High molecular weight esters of long chain fatty acids esterified to long chain fatty alcohols were also found (11%), together with lower amounts of other aliphatic series, such as n-alkanes, n-aldehydes, and glycerides (mono-, di-, and triglycerides). Relatively high amounts of β-diketones (10%), particularly 14,16-hentriacontanedione, which is the second most abundant single compound among the lipids in wheat straw, were also identified. Finally, steroid compounds (steroid hydrocarbons, steroid ketones, free sterols, sterol esters, and sterol glycosides) were also found, with sterols accounting for nearly 14% of all identified compounds.

Surface modification and characterization of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles and their roles in thermal, mechanical, and accelerated aging behavior of foamed wheat straw fiber/polypropylene (PP) composites are investigated. To improve the dispersion of nanoparticles and increase the possible interactions between wheat straw fiber and the PP matrix, the surface of the TiO₂ nanoparticles wa...
متن کاملEffect of Feeding Dietary Treated Wheat Straw with Urea and Whey on Fattening Lambs Performance
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding treated wheat straw with urea and whey on fattening lambs performance. About 4.5 kg urea and 1.5 kg salt were dissolved in 40 L water and mixed with 30 L of whey. The solution was spread over 100 kg chopped wheat straw. Thirty two male lambs were randomly divided into four feeding groups to compare performance with diets based on barley...
