Last year, 'the Committee of Chemical Control (Proc. SA Sugar Tech. Assn., 1931, 10) recorded that they had discussed the methods in use for determining the density of molasses. and promised the publication of the results of a series of comparative tests using hydro. meter (1: 1 dilution), refractometer and pyknometer methods. These tests have now been carried out and are recorded in what follo...

Two feedlot cattle growth performance trials and a metabolism trial were conducted to evaluate the feeding value of cane molasses (CM) compared with wood sugar concentrate (WSC). The CM contained (as-fed basis) 73% DM, 8.6% ash, 48% total sugars, and 79.5 degrees Brix. The WSC contained (as-fed basis) 61% DM, 12.2% ash, 38.9% total sugars, and 29% lignosulfonate. When supplemented at 4% of diet...

Amadori compounds, derived from the condensation of amino acids with reducing sugars in the Mainard reaction, have been isolated from browned, dehydrated fruits and vegetables, bakery products, cane and beet molasses. and cured tobacco. The nonvolatile compounds' in their enolic forms are precursors of flavor compounds, particularly those with burnt and caramel-like aromas. A model basic Amador...

Filamentous fungi of the Aspergillus niger group are native soil saprophytic fungi. Industrial strains of this group have been extensively used for the production of plant degrading enzymes for the food and beverage, animal feed and paper-and-pulp industries. Recombinant DNA technology allows for the overproduction of these enzymes in copious amounts. The advantages and limitations of A. niger ...

The biosurfactant production by Bacillus licheniformis W16 and evaluation of biosurfactant based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) using core-flood under reservoir conditions were investigated. Previously reported nine different production media were screened for biosurfactant production, and two were further optimized with different carbon sources (glucose, sucrose, starch, cane molasses, or date mo...

Dust is often generated from the dry surfaces of unpaved forest roads as a result vehicular traffic. particles can negatively affect vegetative growth, water quality and road traffic quality. In this study, some environmental friendly anti-dust agents including sugar cane molasses, polyacrylamide (PAM) bentonite were used to control dust emission surface under three different concentrations wit...
