A rapid, highly sensitive and selective method was developed for the determination of the cyantraniliprole and its major metabolite J9Z38 in cucumber, tomato and soil by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). Target compounds were extracted with acetonitrile and an aliquot cleaned with primary and secondary amine. Two pairs of precursor product ion transi...

Hydrothermal carbonisation is a promising technology for greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation through landfill avoidance and power generation, as it can convert high-moisture wastes into bio-coal which be used coal substitution. The GHG potential associated with of food waste (FW) generated in India, China the EU was calculated substitution to replace either grid energy, hard coal, or lignite consum...

Abstract Pará is the main cocoa producing state in Brazil. To provide a comprehensive picture of carbon cootprint from production (conventional and organic cultivation systems Brazilian Trans-Amazon Xingu regions), Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol methodology was used to calculate greenhouse gas emissions with focus on impact climate changes. The footprint calculated based original data collected ...

Calcium oxide (CaO) as carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorbent at the elevated temperature has been very well-received thus far. The CaO can be synthesized from natural calcium carbonate (CaCO3) sources through the reversible calcination-carbonation process. In the study, cockle shell has been selected as CaO precursors. The objectives of the study are to investigate the performance of calcination and c...

The aim of the present work was to study, in dairy goats, the effect of replacing 35% of concentrate in the diet with feed blocks including tomato fruits wastes on CH4 emission, milk yield and fatty acid and amino acid profiles. Eight Granadina goats (39.6 ± 1.89 kg BW) in the middle of the third lactation were used, and a two-periods trial was carried out following a crossover design. In each ...

Tomato was evaluated for its liver protective role against carbon tetrachloride (CCl ) induced liver 4 damage in Wister albino rats. Animals were orally treated with tomato pulp (20 and 40 mL/kg body weight) for seven days followed by intraperitoneal injection (2 ml/kg) of 50% v/v CC1 on the last day. The degree of 4 protection was determined by measuring levels of serum biochemical parameters ...
