A completely randomized experimental design was conducted to estimate ammonia excretion rate by red tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) during different stages of its growth in recirculating water system units typically designed to meet the experiment purposes. Eight weight groups each containing 75individuals of 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 120, 180 and 200g average weight were considered as treatments in duplic...

Myricetin is a member of the flavonoid class of polyphenolic compounds, with antioxidant properties.[1] It is commonly derived from vegetables, fruits, nuts, berries, tea,[2] and is also found in red wine.[3] Myricetin is structurally similar to fisetin, luteolin, and quercetin and is reported to have many of the same functions as these other members of the flavonol class of flavonoids.[2] Repo...

An F1 population was created by the cross '87-1' × '9-22'. The female parent '87-1' was an extremely early maturing cultivar with strong flavour. The male parent was an excellent breeding line producing large berries maturing late. The mapping population included 149 randomly chosen individuals. Molecular genetic map for each parent and the consensus map were constructed using simple sequence r...

Noble rot results from exceptional infections of ripe grape (Vitis vinifera) berries by Botrytis cinerea. Unlike bunch rot, noble rot promotes favorable changes in grape berries and the accumulation of secondary metabolites that enhance wine grape composition. Noble rot-infected berries of cv Sémillon, a white-skinned variety, were collected over 3 years from a commercial vineyard at the same t...

The study aimed to analyze the gait kinematics of youth aged 13-17 years, with BMI≥20 and BMI<20, with and without backpack. It was evaluated 15 boys (mean age 13.8±1.19 years, body weight 48.98±9.74 kg, height 1.62±0.09 m, BMI 18.95±2.64 kg/m2). The gait was evaluated by kinemetry based on video and a standardized backpack with load based on an average weight of the backpacks of all tested sub...

Gnagnan (Solanum indicum L.) is a spontaneous plant widely distributed in Ivory Coast. During ripening stages, Solanum indicum L. presents different colours (green, yellow and red) and is reported to contain several albeit poorly characterized antioxidant compounds. This paper describes in detail the antioxidant profile (ascorbic acid, carotenoids and polyphenols), antioxidant capacity (FRAP te...

This study aims to explore consumers' attitude toward a new preservation technique using herbs and berries in organic meat production, which enables to minimize the amount of chemical additives and to reduce the salt content in meat products. Consumer acceptance of the preservation technique using herbs and berries and intention to purchase products preserved with herbs and berries were investi...

Wild lowbush blueberry fields are characterized by high genetic diversity, with a large number of genotypes coexisting in every field. Yield also varies among genotypes, which could be related to the variation physiological and structural traits, but this has not been rigorously tested. In study, we aimed quantify inter-genotype yield, as well leaf stem functional establish relationship between...
