Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcophysiological Studies on Saudi Wild Safflower (Carthamus Oxyacantha Bieb) Seed EcotypesSulaiman Mohammed Al Fadal, Mohammed Abd-Elwahab Al-FredanCarthamus oxyacantha is a widespread wild safflower species in Middle Eastern countries and northwestern India, including Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This study was conducted to evaluate and compare four C. oxyacantha ecotypes collected from different regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Al-Hassa, Al-Kharaj, Najran and Al- Jouf. Analysis of variance showed significant effects … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 8 Aug 2015 · 7,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConversion of Mutton Fat to Cocoa Butter Equivalent by Increasing the Unsaturated Fatty Acids at the Sn-2 Position of Triacylglycerol Through Fermentation by Yarrowia LipolyticaDan Xiong, Huaiyuan Zhang, Yifang Xie et al.Mutton fat has a similar fatty acid profile with Cocoa Butter (CB), except that its degree of unsaturation of Triacylglycerol (TAG) at the Sn-2 position is considerably lower than CB and maybe increased by Sn-2 specific lipase to produce Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE), a healthy functional lipid. However, there is no commercially available Sn-2 specific lipase that can be used … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2015 · 8,698 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional Value of the Maize Stalk Borer and American Bollworm as Unconventional Protein SourcesA.E. Ghaly, F.N. AlkoaikProblem statement: The maize stalk borer and American bollworm were grown in an artificial media to evaluate their potential as human food sources. Approach: Both cultures were started from moths and the life cycle and culture structures were evaluated. Results: The larvae of both insects reached maximum weight and maximum length at the same time. The growth rate of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,088 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. The size of the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,573 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Yellow Mealworm as a Novel Source of ProteinA. E. Ghaly, F. N. AlkoaikProblem statement: Yellow mealworms of different sizes (4.8-182.7 mg) were grown in a medium of wheat flour and brewer’s yeast (95:5 by weight) to evaluate their potential as a protein source. Approach: There was an initial adjustment period (3-9 days) observed during which the younger larvae (4.8-61.1 mg) grew slowly while the older ones (80.3-182.7 mg) lost weight. After this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 20,859 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Supplementary Bioavailable Carbon on the Thermal and Biological Kinetic Parameters of the Composting Process of Tomato Plant TrimmingsA.E. Ghaly, F. AlkoaikThree laboratory-scale bioreactors were used to investigate the influence of bioavailable carbon addition on the composting process of tomato remains. Sugar, cheese whey and used cooking oil were used as bioavailable carbon sources. The amounts of materials added to the compost mixture had equal energy contents. The initial moisture contents and C: N ratios of the compost mixtures were maintained … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Compositions and Resistant Starch Content in Starchy FoodsAnuchita MoongngarmResistant Starch (RS) is one of nature’s most interesting bioactive compounds. There is a wide variety of starchy food plants in Thailand that are good sources of RS, but they have not been well studied. As such, this study was carried out to investigate the potential food source of RS. Twenty-two promising food plants were selected. The samples included (1) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2013 · 15,775 accessesView PDFCite
