This study was done to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant effects of nisin Z (0.02 %) and sodium benzoate (1.5 and 2.5 %) in vacuum packed Caspian Kutum (Rutilus frisii) fillet stored at 4°C. Microbial changes [aerobic plate counts (APC), psychrotrophic counts (PTC) and lactic acid bacteria] and chemical indices [peroxide value and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N)] were determined ...

in this study, the substrate diffusion in an immobilized spherical cell-support aggregate is studied and effects of various parameters are investigated on substrates profile. analyses are performed by using of an analytical solution called the least square method (lsm) and results are compared with numerical solution. the effects of effective diffusion coefficient ( d e ), maximum specific grow...

The study evaluated chemical composition, fermentation profile, microbial population and dry matter recovery of silages made from mixtures palisade grass (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu) forage peanut (Arachis pintoi Belmonte). experiment was conducted analyzed in a complete randomized factorial design using 5 levels each (0, 25, 50, 75 100% on fresh basis), with without inoculant 3 replication...

Biomass and microbial activity in backwashing processes of a biofilter for tertiary treatment were investigated. The microbial groups revealed new distribution along the biofilter depth after low flow rate backwashing for a short time. Then the start-up process was accelerated by backwashing. The biomass profile and microbial activity profile both varying with depth before and after backwashing...
