CONTEXT A biofilm is a layer of microorganisms contained in a matrix (slime layer), which forms on surfaces in contact with water. Their presence in drinking water pipe networks can be responsible for a wide range of water quality and operational problems. AIM To identify the bacterial isolates, obtained from water pipelines of kitchens, to evaluate the water quality & to study the biofilm pr...

The Discovery of the Content Giberellin Acid (GA3) in Extracts Several Plant Spesies. studies have found that application growth regulator can induce seedless seeded varieties and also improve fruit quality non-seeded grapes. It is directly responsible for cell division used horticulture to promote seed germination. high price makes it unaffordable farmers, especially Indonesia, so necessary lo...

As a leafy vegetable, Amaranthus can be harvested at different stages of plant growth, ranging from young seedlings to the late juvenile stage, but data on the changes in leaf nutritional value with plant age are scanty. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of growth temperature on Amaranthus leaf yield and nutritional quality at different stages of plant growth. Five species...
