The effect of chitosan coating combined with green tea extract (GTE) on the quality of tigertooth croaker (Otolithes ruber) fillets including chemical, microbiological, texture, color and sensory properties during 16 days of refrigerated storage was investigated. The changes of color different were significantly retared, and the texture parameteres and sensory scores were significantly improved...

key dissimilarities between thermophilic and mesophilic anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge (was) were experimentally studied in this research. typical was with total solids (ts) concentrations of 30 and 60 g/l were digested anaerobically in a batch digester at mesophilic and thermophilic temperatures. solids reduction, total cod changes, the production of different volatile fatty aci...

THESE STUDIES SHOW: 1. A close agreement exists among all the organisms studied in the total quantity of volatile fatty acids produced and in the ratio of formic to acetic, under aerobic conditions, and in the presence of 1 per cent of glucose. 2. When grown upon peptone alone, with free access of air to the cultures, volatile fatty acids are produced in appreciable quantities, although the rea...

the effect of phosphorus supplementation to ammoniated rice straw was studied. the in vitro experiment was carried out following the first stage of tilley and terry method. the treatments consisting of four diets were a= 50% ammoniated rice straw + 50% concentrate (control), b= a + 0.2% phosphorus (p) supplement, c= a + 0.4% phosphorus (p) supplement, and d= a + 0.6% phosphorus (p) supplement o...

this study was conducted to determine the nutritive value of fresh and ensiled whole and partly stoned olive cake (oc) with or without molasses i.e., 0 and 50 gkg-1 on fresh basis. dry matter (dm), organic matter (om), crude protein (cp), neutral detergent fiber (ndf), acid detergent fiber (adf), lignin (sa), ether extract (ee), water soluble carbohydrates (wsc), and total phenols (tph) of all ...
