Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractImpacts of Biogas Digestate on Crop Production and the Environment: A Bulgarian Case StudyNicholas Kathijotes, Vera Petrova, Elena Zlatareva et al.The water-energy nexus reveals that large amounts of energy is stored in used water and can be used as an energy source. Anaerobic fermentation is an excellent ecological waste treatment and a way of producing low cost electrical and thermal energy. By using digestate resulting from biogas production instead of synthetic fertilizers derived from natural gas, we can save energy, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 29 May 2015 · 7,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM BLACK COWPEA AND ITS APPLICATIONAnuchita Moongngarm, Sirinapa Sasanam, Watcharee Pinsiri et al.Black cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) is high in protein, which makes it suitable for use as a protein supplement in food products. However, direct application of cowpea flour in food products is limited as it may affect some quality aspects of foods. Protein concentrate and isolate are a form of the protein that is gaining interest in industry. Therefore, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Nov 2014 · 6,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE EFFECT OF AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION SERVICE ON THE TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF TEFF (ERAGROSTISTEF) PRODUCERS IN ETHIOPIAAsres Elias, Makoto Nohmi, Kumi Yasunobu et al.Teff (Eragrostistef) is a major staple food crop in Ethiopia, but smallholder teff production is characterized by persistently low average yield. A major government effort aimed at raising the productivity and competitiveness of smallholder agriculture in Ethiopia involved reforming and implementing agricultural extension service known as Participatory Demonstration and Training Extension System (PADETES). Therefore, this study investigates the effect of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Dec 2013 · 9,529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability and Genetic Structure in a Commercial Field of Tequila Plants, Agave tequilana Weber (Agavaceae)Martha Isabel Torres-Moran, Ana Paulina Velasco-Ramirez, Salvador Antonio Hurtado-de la Pena et al.Crops of the tequila plant (Agave tequilana) are produced mainly from offshoots of mother plants in established commercial fields. This propagation method is significant, as it is believed that it facilitates the spread of disease because of the crop’s low genetic variability and is also necessary because it is regulate the use of just that variety in tequila industry. Different … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2013 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Elicitors and Precursors on the Synthesis of Anthocyanin in Grape Vitis vinifera Cell CulturesNay Min Min Thaw Saw, Heidi Riedel, Onur Kütük et al.Problem statement: Nowadays, plant cell suspension cultures and immobilized cells are being utilized for the higher yield and quality of the products than extraction of whole plants. Anthocyanins are compounds found in plants that have powerful antioxidant properties. They also provide some of the coloring or pigment of plants, flowers and fruits. Anthocyanin from grape cell cultures can be used … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 15,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Insects as Human Food in ZambiaA.E. GhalyProblem statement: The life cycle and culture structure of two commonly eaten worms in Zambia (Isoberlinia paniculata and Miombo/Mopani) were evaluated. The worms were grown on an artificial medium to evaluate the potential of producing them on a commercial scale. Approach: An interesting characteristic of the worms studied was that they reached their maximum weight and maximum length at the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Black Cutworm as a Potential Human FoodA.E. GhalyProblem statement: The black cutworms (Agrotis ipsilon) were grown in an artificial medium to evaluate their potential as a human food. Approach: The culture was started from moths and the life cycle and culture structure were evaluated. There was an initial adjustment period of 3 days during which the growth of the larvae was very slow.
