Sugar beets are grown for sugar in 22 States—Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Colorado, Montana, Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Wyoming, and California. They are grown in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, California, and Oregon for seed. Almost 20 percent of the national sugar requirem.ent...

The carbonation of biosourced 1,2-diols is a sustainable avenue for the synthesis bis-five-membered cyclic carbonates (bis-5CCs), precursors valuable class polymers, example, polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs). In this work, we performed direct optically pure sugar-based butadiene tetraols, namely, (i) meso-erythritol and (ii) its (S,S) diastereoisomer, (L)-threitol. corresponding vicinal bis-5CCs, er...

Due to the successful use of the Saccharoflex 2000 reflectance measurement instrument on the estimation of refined sugar colour elsewhere in the world, it was decided by Tongaat-Hulett Sugar to evaluate the instrument at the refinery in Durban. Tests were carried out on first, second, third and fourth refined sugars, the results of which showed a good correlation between the ICUMSA colour measu...

to study  the effect of powdery mildew on sugar beet yield and percentage of sugar losses sugar percent losses, ten genotypes were compared in a factorial  experiment based on  randomized complete block design with 3 replications and two factors. the first factor was spraying treatment with two levels and the second were genotypes. inoculation was carried out using the pathogens' conidial ...

background and objectives: over the last two decades, a large number of researches have been conducted regarding the importance of nitrogen in sugar beet. this indicate that there were needs to investigate more on nitrogen management to achive higher production and quality because less nitrogen application result in reducing yield and high nitrogen application would increase production costs an...

Thermoplasma acidophilum HO-62 was grown at different pHs and temperatures, and its polar lipid compositions were determined. Although the number of cyclopentane rings in the caldarchaeol moiety increased when T. acidophilum was cultured at high temperature, the number decreased at low pHs. Glycolipids, phosphoglycolipids, and phospholipids were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatograph...
