The fluorescence microscope is one of the most sensitive instruments available for morphological and microchemical analysis of biological material, and especially of cereal grains. Recent innovations in illuminating systems, fluorescence chemistry, and specimen preparation have combined to provide significant improvements over conventional bright-field microscopy in both specificity and sensiti...

during the last few decades cereals yield have increased drastically at the national level however, information about yield stability and its resistance to annual environmental variability are scare. in this study long term stability of grin yield of wheat, barley, rice, corn and overall cereals in iran were evaluated during a 40-year period (1971-2011). stability analysis was conducted using t...

The central composite rotatable design was used to plan the experiments using feed moisture (FM) content, barrel temperature (BT), screw speed (SS), and concentration of Indian horse chestnut flour (IHCF) as process variables varied between 10–18%, 70–150°C, 290–380 rpm 1.75–4.75%, respectively. Surface mechanical energy, water holding capacity, swelling volume, piece density, longitudinal expa...

Processing of horticultural goods produces a large amount waste. Huge waste and losses in the food processing industries are facing economic environmental problems. Agro-industries byproducts can serve as important raw material for development value added products. The from fruits vegetables be used unconventional alternate feed animals which have best source digestible nutrients fulfill gaps b...

The purpose of this article is to examine dietary intake levels and major food sources of energy and nutrients for the Taiwanese elderly in order to relate nutrient intakes to food choices and to provide suggestions for dietary improvement. The data were derived from the 24-hour recalls from 1,911 subjects (955 males and 956 females) aged 65 and above, who participated in the Elderly NAHSIT car...

Whole grain cereals contain a wide range of phytochemicals and it is often difficult to ascribe protective effects on metabolic health to any one particular constituent. The interactions among bioactive components, which contribute highly to the total antioxidant capacity of cereals, represent the first step in the evaluation of food potential health benefits. This research focused on the deter...

There are many projections for China’s food demand, and the projection results differ significantly from each other. Different values for income elasticities could be a major reason. This study projects meat and cereals demand for China based on a meta-analysis of the income elasticity estimates using a collection of 143 and 240 income elasticity estimates for cereals and meat products, respect...

The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) involved during the spontaneous fermentation of cereals (maize,millet, sorghum) for the production of indigenous foods (‘akamu’, ‘kunu-zaki’) were quantified and identified. The lactic acid bacteria counts varied during the fermentation of the cereals while the titratable acidity (TTA) increased with reduction in pH. Identification of isolates using API 50CHL syst...

The presence of mycotoxins in cereals has led to large economic losses Europe. In the course European project MyToolBox, prevention and control measures reduce mycotoxin contamination were developed. This study aimed estimate impact these on both reduction crop increased volume crops suitable for food and/or feed. It focused following measures: use fungicides during wheat cultivation, resistant...
