Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Heat Moisture Treatment Using Different Solvents and Incubation Times on Resistant Starch Formation of Rice FlourAnuchita Moongngarm, Piyatida Srijinda, Tatdao Paseephol et al.The thermal and pasting properties and Resistant Starch (RS) formation of high amylose rice flour were investigated at 121°C using different solvents and storage times. The samples treated with water and lactic acid 10 mmol/L with storage times 0, 24, 48 and 72 h had the highest degree of gelatinization, ranging from 98.64 to 99.86%. The samples treated with ethanol … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 9 Sep 2015 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Genetic Purity of Parental Lines of Hybrid Rice Using DNA-Based MarkersSunil Bhavsar, Twinkle Solanki, Suchita Amin, Neeru JainAssessment of hybrid seed genetic purity is one of the most important quality control parameters in hybrid seed production. With the objective of replacing the GOT with DNA based assays, Cytoplasmic Male Sterile (CMS), restorer and hybrid lines have been screened by means of microsatellite and Sequence Tagged Site (STS) markers. Cytoplasmic Male Sterile (CMS) lines often get contaminated with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2015 · 7,442 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCHARACTERIZATION OF OIL PALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH AND RICE HUSK BIOCHARS AND THEIR POTENTIAL TO ADSORB ARSENIC AND CADMIUMNorazlina Abu Sari, Che Fauziah Ishak, Rosenani Abu BakarBiochar as a new soil amendment has a potential in controlling the fate of trace elements in the soil system. However, the production of biochar from different feedstocks and pyrolysis conditions resulted in variable biochar properties which have an influence on trace elements availability. The experimental works are focused on physical and chemical properties of biochars produced from Empty Fruit … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 13 Aug 2014 · 10,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKEY FACTORS FOR IMPROVING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF UPLAND RICE PRODUCTIONThanaporn Athipanyakul, Panusak Jitsaeng, Napa Pongkapan, Piansak PakdeeFood security problems are major issues in developing countries, especially under the conditions of restricted farm resources and environmental degradation. The re-allocation of existing farm resources in the upland in order to reach a production of maximum output under given technologies and the estimated value of the technical efficiency have been important information for this purpose. The objective of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdhesion of Probiotic Bacteria to Resistant Rice StarchGhalia Salem, Zaiton Hassan, Maryam AbubakrResistant starch as prebiotics can be combined with probiotics to increase their survival during processing of food products. In present study Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) which, isolated from (yoghurt, banana and human breast milk) were screened for their probiotic properties and evaluated for the adhesion properties to Rice Resistance Starch (RRS). 26% of the isolates (10/39) overcame the stress to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 5 Apr 2013 · 6,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing Soil Plant Analysis Development Chlorophyll Meter for Two Growth Stages to Assess Grain Yield of Malaysian Rice (Oryza sativa)Asa Gholizadeh, Mohd Amin Mohd Soom, Anuar Abd. Rahim, Aimrun WayayokProblem Statement: Proper yield management in rice influences grain quality and quantity. Nitrogen site-specific management is also effective on final product of crops because excessive nitrogen application at any growth stage can reduce yield and increase disease incidence. In contrast, suboptimal nitrogen levels at discrete growth stages may substantially reduce plant productivity. The nitrogen status at specific growth stages may … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 11,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTartaric Acid Modified Rice Hull as a Sorbent for Methylene Blue RemovalSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Ai-Wen Chong et al.Problem statement: Improper dye discharge from various industries such as textile, paper, cosmetic and plastics into receiving streams can be one of the sources towards water pollution. The release of these effluents not only causes various disruptions in the ecosystems, but also poses hazard effect as most of the dyes are highly toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic in nature. Approach: To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBasic and Reactive Dyes Sorption Enhancement of Rice Hull through Chemical ModificationSiew-Teng Ong, Pei-Sin Keng, Chnoong-Kheng LeeProblem statement: Many studies have been conducted on the removal of either anionic or cationic dyes. However, as a mixture of dyes does commonly exist together in wastewater, therefore it is of great interest to have a material that can remove both types of dyes. Approach: To prepare an inexpensive and efficient sorbent by chemically modifying rice hull for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelationship between Rice Yield and Apparent Electrical Conductivity of Paddy SoilsM.H. Ezrin, M.S.M. Amin, A.R. Anuar, W. AimrunProblem statement: Understanding the relationships between rice yield and soil properties such as bulk electrical conductivity is of critical importance in precision farming. The apparent Electrical Conductivity of soil (ECa) is influenced by a combination of physico-chemical properties including soluble salts, clay content and mineralogy, soil water content, bulk density, organic matter and soil temperature. Accordingly, ECa is considered as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,549 accessesView PDFCite
