After pulp extraction in fruit processing industry, a significant quantity of mango seed kernels are discarded as solid wastes. These seed kernels can be ideal raw materials for obtaining extracts rich in bioactive compounds with good antioxidant properties. The conversion of these wastes into utilizable food ingredients would help in reducing environmental problems associated with processing w...

Sorghum stemborer species remains key yield limiting factor for sorghum production in the Nigerian semi-arid region. When they can afford, farmers rely almost solely on synthetic insecticides for control. Owing to the misuse and environmental and health challenges attributed to the use of synthetic insecticides, a two-year field study was carried out at the University of Maiduguri Research Farm...

In the present work, composite materials were prepared from coconut shell powder, palm kernel and epoxy resin. The addition of powder was considered when preparing samples, mechanical properties such as tensile strength, hardness, impact, bending physical behavior water absorption, well morphological tests, conducted using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope, T...

Carotenoids are pigments found in various types of fruits and vegetables that provide yellow, orange, red colors. This study aimed to extract yellow pumpkin skin using edible oil solvents. The extraction process was carried out ultrasound-assisted (UAE) method with virgin coconut (VCO) palm kernel (PKO). Yellow peel powder sizes 40 mesh 100 were extracted variations time (30 minutes, 60 90 minu...

in 2001, s. bulman-fleming et al. initiated the study of three flatness properties (weakly kernel flat, principally weakly kernel flat, translation kernel flat) of right acts $a_{s}$ over a monoid $s$ that can be described by means of when the functor $a_{s} otimes -$ preserves pullbacks. in this paper, we extend these results to$s$-posets and present equivalent descriptions of weakly kernel po...

The present study was aimed at evaluating the possible use of inter polymer complexed (IPC) films of chitosan (CH) and carboxymethyl tamarind kernel powder (CMTKP) for colon release of budesonide. Viscosity analysis of the supernatant liquid obtained after reacting CH and CMTKP in different proportions revealed 40:60 to be the optimum stoichiometric ratio. The FTIR spectra of IPC films formed f...
