Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleProducts of Solid-Phase Probiotic Bacilli Fermentation Increase Food Conversion Efficiency and Stimulate Chicken GrowthMazanko Maria S., Aleksandr I. Klimenko, Ivan F. Gorlov et al.Poultry farming is one of the major directions in agriculture. Agricultural poultry has high growth speed, productivity and is resistant to the industrial environment. Our group carried out a study of probiotic preparations of Bacillus subtilis KATMIRA1933 and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens B-1895 strains. These preparations were made by solid-phase fermentation and tested for dynamical germination of rearing flock (Highsex brown). The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 4 Dec 2018 · 9,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSummarizing Spatial Distribution Density, Movement Patterns and Food Resources to Study the Impacts of Logging and Forest Conversion on Orang-utan PopulationRaymond Alfred, Koh Pei Hue, Lee Shan Khee, Rayner AlfredProblem statement: Orang-utan is classified as a totally protected species and is listed as an endangered species in Borneo. The survival of this species is highly dependent on the existence and quality of the lowland forest of Sabah. However, most of the pristine habitats in the lowland area have been converted into other land use activities such as a large … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCuticular Chitin of the Wild Silkworm Saturnia Pyri: A Renewable Source for Applications Across Industrial SectorsZarintaj Shukurova, Yusif Shukurlu, Zarbali Khalilov, Madina SharifovaIn the context of a developing sustainable bioeconomy, the search for renewable sources of biopolymers as alternatives to traditional ones is of crucial importance. In this regard, insect cuticular waste represents a promising yet insufficiently explored raw material for obtaining chitin and chitosan. This study aimed to perform a comparative assessment of the extraction efficiency and quality of chitin and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2026 · 947 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,844 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransformation of Lignocellulosic Biomass into Sustainable Biofuels: Major Challenges and Bioprocessing TechnologiesTahira Naz, Yusuf Nazir, Abu Bakr Ahmad Fazili et al.Commercial-scale production of biofuels has recently been intensified due to its cost-effectiveness, sustainability, market stability, alternative fuel energy composition and greener output, etc. Lignocellulosic biomass attracted the attention of researchers as a renewable feedstock for fermentative conversion into biofuels because of its high productivity, low agricultural input requirements, being environmentally friendly and no competition with the food crops. The field … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 1 Aug 2020 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKnock Down of Erythrulose Kinase (eyk1) Leads to the Enhancement of Erythritol Production in Yarrowia lipolytica Mutant Strain YE4-2Xinhe Zhao, Tianlong Huang, Yaxin Zhang et al.Erythritol is a nearly zero-calorie sweetener, which is in great demand in food and health care industry. Our previous work obtained a Yarrowia lipolytica mutant strain YE4-2 with high erythritol yield. However, its conversion rate of glucose needs further improvement. Erythrulose kinase (eyk1) participates in the early stages of erythritol catabolism; the existence of eyk1 prevents the accumulation of erythritol. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 24 Jul 2020 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFruit Bio-Waste Derived Bio-Ethanol Production and Bioelectricity Generation as Renewable EnergyABM Sharif Hossain, Musamm M UddinBio-waste from food industry is a significant component to pollute the environment. Bioproducts like biomaterials, biofuel can be produced from biowaste and pollution can be reduced. The study was conducted to evaluate the quality of bioethanol production and investigate the bioethanol for bioelectricity generation using rambutan fruit biowaste. Bioethanol yield was the highest in 2 days incubation period of fermentation. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 7 Sep 2021 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
