Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Visceral Organ, Gastrointestinal Tract and Blood Characteristics in Pegagan Ducks Fed Ration Fermented by Tape Yeast with Different Moisture ContentFitra Yosi, Sofia Sandi, MiksusantiThe purpose of this study was to assess the effect of administration diet containing locally sourced materials fermented by tape yeast with different moisture content on the weight of the visceral organs, gastrointestinal tract and blood chemistry and profile of Pegagan ducks. As many as 200 Pegagan ducks aged 3 days were kept for 6 weeks in colony cages. This … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2017 · 9,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Tomato Geometries and Air Temperature on the Drying Behavior of Plum TomatoM.S. Brooks, N.H. Abou El-Hana, A.E. GhalyThe drying behavior of plum tomatoes as affected by drying temperature and tomato pieces geometry was investigated. The tomato was cut into halves, quarters and eighths and dried at temperatures of 55 and 65°C. During drying, the moisture content followed an exponential decay curve with R2>0.98. The time required to achieve the critical moisture content for storage (15%) for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Technology for Agriculture at Extreme Altitudes: Design and Evaluation of a Sprinkler Irrigation System in a Peruvian High Andean CommunityJuan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Daniel Olivier Carranza Lizana et al.In high-altitude agroecosystems, erratic rainfall patterns and steep topography severely constrain crop productivity by exposing plants to soil water deficits during critical phenological stages. This study aimed to enhance the productivity of eleven staple and horticultural crops corn (Zea mays), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), eggplant (Solanum melongena), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), carrot (Daucus carota), barley (Hordeum vulgare), celery (Apium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 2 Oct 2026 · 645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Compost Production from Fruit and Vegetable Market Waste: A Case Study in Bagua, Amazonas (Peru)Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Wilfredo Ruiz Camacho, Juan Francisco Robles RuizInadequate management of organic solid waste in municipal markets represents a critical environmental challenge in tropical developing regions, where high humidity (>80%) and elevated temperatures (>25°C) accelerate decomposition, generating leachate and greenhouse gas emissions. In Peru, over 50% of municipal waste is organic, yet less than 20% is valorised through composting, highlighting a substantial technological gap. This study evaluated an … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 1,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Effectiveness of Feed Production in Arid Areas, Northern Kazakhstan, Considering the Utilization of Soil Moisture ResourcesKudaybergen Konopianov, Irina Anikina, Karina Omarova et al.The problems of sustainability of crop production in arid regions are actual. Moreover, often the aridity factor is combined with other stress factors, such as elevated temperatures and soil salinity. The article evaluates the effectiveness of the use of moisture and heat resources when growing fodder crops in arid conditions with a short growing season. In order to compare the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 24 May 2024 · 4,885 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Functional Evaluation of Compound Bletilla striata EssenceMengnan Zhu, Jiameng Shen, Hongju Zhang et al.The purpose of this study was to prepare a multi-functional skin care product and apply more plant resources to the skin care industry. The crude polysaccharides from Bletilla striata, Panax ginseng, and Tremella fuciformis were extracted under different conditions based on the characteristics of the plants.
