cellulase production by the fungus trichoderma reesei was studied using sugar beet pulp (sbp) as a substrate. the subculture medium was a salt solution consisting of kh2po4, cacl2, etc. fungal cells were sub-cultured in an orbital shaker (180 rpm) at 30°c for 1-2 generations (two days for each generation) and were then used as an inoculum. exponential cells were inoculated into a medium contain...

An experiment was performed with the objective of evaluating the performance of beef steers on diets consisting of increasing levels of corn milling by-products (BP) (50% wet corn gluten feed, 50%wet distillers grains; DM basis) and different alfalfa hay levels. 280 yearling steers (370 kg BW) were blocked (3 blocks) by weight, stratified within block and assigned to 35 pens (8 steers/pen). Pen...

This fuel ethanol study examined the effects of Saccharomyces cerevisiae inoculum size on solid-phase fermentation of fodder beet pulp. A 5% inoculum (wt/wt) resulted in rapid yeast and ethanol (9.1% [vol/vol]) production. Higher inocula showed no advantages. Lower inocula resulted in lowered final yeast populations and increased fermentation times.

Sugar production is accompanied by the formation of waste in form beet pulp. In this study, a procedure described for turning sugar pulp into structured carbon materials making electrodes supercapacitors. The overall sustainable path to produce human consumption and prepare high-quality material energy storage. More details can be found article number 2201145, Valentine P. Ananikov co-workers.

The aim of present study is investigating effect of treated lemon pulp by Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast on protein and energy metabolism in goats was fed with this product. In this experiment 8 goats from raini breed were used for 21 days period; 16 days for adaptation and 5 days for sampling, to investigate the effect of processing lemon pulp by Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeas...

The present experiment aimed at increasing orange peel and sugar beet pulp protein content through solid-state fermentation by Trichoderma reesei and Trichoderma viride. In vitro digestibility and changes in the chemical composition of the fermented products were determined after seven days of fungal cultivation using gas production tests. The cultivation of T. reesei and T. viride on orange pe...

1. The absorption of zinc in humans from composite meals, was determined by extrinsic labelling of the meals with 65Zn and measurement of the whole-body retention of the radioisotope. 2. Low-Zn (mean 25 mumol) chicken meals with 150 g white bread or 225 g potatoes, carrots, turnips, cabbage or green peas were studied. The effect of a beet-pulp-fibre preparation used as a breakfast cereal, in br...

The effect of time and pressure on the selective extraction of sugar beet pectin using steam pre-treatment on unprocessed Sugar Beet Pulp was evaluated using a design of experiments approach. This process gave the highest solubilisation of pectin oligomers at a relatively low pressure and longer time (5Bar, 24min), whilst leaving the majority of the cellulose fraction intact. This method of ste...

Distension of the rumen limits feed intake by livestock. Ruminal dysfunctions due to bloat, which causes distension by accumulation of excessive gas within the rumen, also reduce feeding. We hypothesized that excessive levels of rumen distension cause feed aversions and that preference increases for feeds eaten in association with recovery from bloat. To test these hypotheses, we determined whe...
