The objective of Onion Routing is to make it completely impossible for third parties to perform traffic analysis. This goal is achieved by applying cryptographic techniques to networking. The packets transiting the chain of onion routers thus appear anonymous. Yes, we are talking about a chain. Practically speaking, there is a group of onion routers distributed around the public network, each o...

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is a vegetable that is widely consumed due to its flaouring and healthpromoting properties. A randomized complete block factorial experiment was carried out in Payame Noor University, Marivan center, in order to study the effects of rates of nitrogen, phosphorus and sheep manure on the yield and quality of onion. The first factor consisted of two sheep manure levels (0 an...

Onion is one of the most important spice crops cultivated for its nutritious content consumption and economic value globally. The study was carried out to investigate fungi microbes associated with spoilage onion bulbs around Awka metropolis. visible signs were collected from four different markets in namely; Eke Awka, Amaenyi, first second Ifite cultured presence fungi. A total twenty (20) sam...

A glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) inhibitor was isolated from the onion bulb by fractionation and purification using Sep-pak Vac C18 column, TLC and HPLC. Five partially purified onion bulb GSTs (GSTa and GSTb as minor GSTs, and GSTc, GSTd and GSTe as dominant GSTs) separated by DEAE column were used to detect the inhibitory substance in onion bulb extract. Among the three fraction...

The consumption of fruits and vegetables that have high polyphenol content has been previously associated with a reduced risk for cardiovascular disease. We investigated the effects of onion peel extract on plasma total antioxidant capacity, lipid peroxidation, and leukocyte DNA damage. This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial. Healthy female subjects recei...

Volunteer potatoes are difficult to control in onions and can greatly reduce onion growth and yield. Herbicides and cultivation were evaluated for control of simulated volunteer potatoes in onions in 1996 and 2000. Three interrow cultivations did not control potatoes in the onion row and the remaining plants reduced onion yield 50 and 73% compared with the hand-weeded checks. Three applications...

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of onion extract on growth performance, carcass characteristics and some blood metabolites in Ross and Cobb broiler chickens. One hundred sixty, 1-d-old broiler chickens (mean initial weight: 36.5 ± 1 g) of male sex (Ross-308 and Cobb) were randomly conducted as randomized complete design with 4 treatment and 4 replication. The experimental grou...

The consumption of fresh produce is increasing due to its role in promoting a healthy and balanced diet. However, this trend accompanied by increased foodborne disease cases associated with pathogens such as Escherichia, Listeria, Salmonella. Previous studies provided evidence that the internalization may be potential contamination route pose public health risk. This study investigates combinat...

A lipase producing bacterium, Bacillus cereus MSU AS was isolated from the gut of a marine fish Sardinella longiceps. In total, seven agricultural waste substrates (coconut oil cake, neem oil cake, onion skin waste, wheat bran, jack fruit waste, banana skin peels and pomegranate skin peel) were selected for solid state production of lipase by B. cereus MSU AS. Among the tested substrates, onion...
