Objective: The usage of pesticides has increased during the recent years. One the other hand, presence of harmful pesticides residue in rice and other food has caused a great concern among the consumers. Therefore, it is important to develop some pragmatic procedures to increase the food safety along with the reduction in consumption of pesticide residues. Methods: A gas chromatograph with elec...

in order to evaluate the genetic diversity of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) and the relationships between studied characteristics with seed storage proteins, 60 genotypes with three colors (white, red and pinto bean) were studied using an augmented design with three blocks and four varieties as controls. the majority of studied traits were significantly different between large and small s...

Knowledge of genetic diversity and relationships between genotypes is mainly important for selection of parental genotypes. Moreover, assessing diversity across and within crop varieties is important to improve the description of collections in gene banks and in on-farm conservation practices. In order to evaluation and study of genetic diversity in the bean in normal condition, forty-five bean...

To study the effect of amylose content and Pre-germinated brown rice (PGBRL) on blood glucose and lipids, streptozotocin induced diabetic rats were fed on two cooked Egyptian rice varieties Giza175 high amylose 24.49 % for brown and 29.63% for white and Giza 181 low amylose 18.18 % for brown and 21.07 % for white. Pre-germinated brown rice (PGBRL) prepared from rice low amylose by immersing in ...

Introduction Phenolic compounds are important phytonutrients that are ubiquitously distributed throughout the plant kingdom. These compounds are associated with the sensory and nutritional quality of fresh and processed plant foods. Several varieties of dry beans {Phaseolus vulgaris L.) varying in seed shape, size, and color are consumed throughout the world primarily as an important source of ...

1 Chicken and water chestnuts A case-based planner devises new plans by retrieving and adapting old ones from memory (see, e. Ideally, the plan it retrieves from memory should be one that requires the least adaptation to t the current circumstances. Finding this plan in a cost-eeective way is thus a key issue in case-based reasoning (see, e. The approach that is generally taken to this problem ...

The energy values of iirtiatte-ans (Phaseolus lunatus) as affected by different processing treatments were determined. Average gains in body weight 17.38g for raw limabeans 48.07g cooked, 36.91g autoclaved, 32.57g soaked and 31.12g germinated beans. Feed conversion efficiency was signicantly improved the poore­st obtained lima-beans. Digestible (DE) metabolizable (ME) highly positively corre­la...
