Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Polydextrose on Feces Consistency and Macronutrient Digestibility in Healthy DogsK. Vasupen, C. Yuangklang, A. C. Beynen, A. W.C. EinerhandProblem statement: There is evidence that the addition of 3% STA-LITE® polydextrose to a dry food reduces clinical signs of osteoarthritis in dogs. For the application of polydextrose as functional ingredient of dog foods, information as to its impact on the acceptance of food, feces consistency, fecal odor and digestibility of macronutrients and minerals is required. Approach: A feeding experiment … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2011 · 8,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Antifungal Bacteriocin-Synthesizing Strains of Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis as the Perspective Biopreservatives for Protection of Raw Smoked SausagesL.G. Stoyanova, E.A. Ustyugova, T.D. Sultimova et al.Problem statement: Screening for the effective bacteriocin-synthesizing strains of Lactococcus lactis as the perspective biopreservatives was performed. We used a raw milk and dairy products from different climatic regions as well as from powerful drinks of mixed lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation: kurunga, kumiss and Iranian “Dough”, that were widely used by local population to prevent diseases. Approach: The special … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2010 · 9,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of a Mixture of Thermophilic Enzymes Produced by the Fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus to Enhance the Enzymatic Hydrolysis of the Sugarcane Bagasse CelluloseJ. R. Monte, W. Carvalho, A. M. F. MilagresProblem statement: The production of hydrolytic enzymes by T. aurantiacus has been performed under solid-state fermentations using lignocellulosic materials. The influences of the inoculum size and of the fermentation medium on the production of hemicellulases and cellulases were studied. Filtrates from the cultures were used to hydrolyze a pulp of sugarcane bagasse and the produced enzymes were shown to be … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 9,212 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFish Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: ReviewA. E. Ghaly, D. Dave, S. Budge, M. S. BrooksProblem statement: Spoilage of food products is due to chemical, enzymatic or microbial activities One-fourth of the world’s food supply and 30% of landed fish are lost through microbial activity alone. With the ever growing world population and the need to store and transport the food from one place to another where it is needed, food preservation becomes necessary in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 59,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Earthquake Demolition Debris on the Quality of GroundwaterM. S. Benmenni, K. BenrachediProblem statement: Debris from construction or demolition/deconstruction processes have no significant impact on the environment as they are res-usable and inert. This has been also long admitted for solid waste generated by the demolition of damaged cities following violent earthquakes. Approach: This study is a contribution to the assessment of actual impact on the quality of groundwater of buried demolition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMutagenic Screening of Crude Oil Fractions Using Modified Ames Test and Allium cepa (Linn) AssayOlufunsho Awodele, Alade Akintonwa, Sunday O. Olayemi et al.Problem statement: Crude oil which may be broadly characterized as paraffinic or naphthenic is a complex mixture of alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons. About 500,000 workers are employed in crude oil exploration and production worldwide. There have been reports of occupational exposure during drilling, pumping and transportation of crude oil, including maintenance of equipment used for these processes. Thus, skin … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Mutagenicity of Some Pharmaceutical EffluentsA. Akintonwa, O. Awodele, A. T. Olofinnade et al.Problem statement: The pharmaceutical industry is a major contributor to industrial wastes globally. Effluents from this industry are usually discharged into the environment and when not properly handled and disposed, they affect both human health and the environment. Approach: This study evaluated the mutagenic potentials of effluents from six pharmaceutical companies in the Lagos province of Nigeria using modified Ames … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
