Molasses is a significant by-product of sugar beet or sugar cane refining industry. In this work, the effects of storage temperature and packaging on the contents of free amino acids (AAs) in sugar beet and sugar cane molasses after freeze drying were inquired. The effect of different variables such as, temperature (4 and 25˚C) and light (Metallized polypropylene container and Normal polypropyl...

A walking distance estimation algorithm for cane users is proposed using an inertial sensor unit attached to various positions on the cane. A standard inertial navigation algorithm using an indirect Kalman filter was applied to update the velocity and position of the cane during movement. For quadripod canes, a standard zero-velocity measurement-updating method is proposed. For standard canes, ...

the use of fertilizers npk and amendments in sugar cane crops may change the heavy metalsconcentrations in soils, making them available for plants and, consequently, they can be transferred to thehuman food chain. this study describes the redistribution of heavy metals (cd, cr, cu, ni, pb and zn) in soils with sugar cane crops due to fertilizers npk and amendments at corumbataí river basin, são...

The application of ion-exclusion chromatography to desugarization of molasses has been investigated in the beet sugar industry for many years and is now being applied routinely to sucrose recovery. Recent work on the desugarization of molasses from cane processing has been carried out and a large-scale system is under construction. Ion-exclusion chromatographic processes are very efficient for ...

In India, the loss of sucrose content in cane as a result of ‘cut-to-mill’ delays can be extremely high during the summer months. A novel chemical formulation, Sucroguard, developed and patented in India, was tested to determine its effectiveness in controlling post-harvest cane deterioration. Results showed that a 10 ppm dose reduced invert sugars and tiratable sugars in primary juice, and red...

Three herbicide screening trials, nineteen regional trials and three subsidiary trials were conducted during 1962-63, covering a wide range of environmental conditions and weed populations in the Natal cane belt. The outstanding herbicide was Paraquat which gave good post-emergent control of the two most important weeds, Cyperus esculentus and Panicum maximum, as wellas the majority of other we...

Cane and Candy are traceable to two Chinese words both pronounced Kan. One word means Cane or pole when Kan finally became cane in English. The other word Kan means sweet. Then there is the Chinese word Dih which means Drops when Kan-Dih became Candy and means Sweet Drops. Sugar crystals would be like sand in size. Candy of the size of drops. While Misri of small stones, the term Kan-Dih entere...

Conclusions. The CANE questionnaire addresses many different areas of need and is able to identify unmet needs that might otherwise go undetected. The CANE could be used therefore as part of the routine assessment of liaison psychiatric elderly patients on medical and surgical wards. Using the CANE may reduce the likelihood of readmission to hospital, the need for continuing care post discharge...
