Forage Resources, Nutrition, and Food Supply of Free-Grazing Camels (Сamelus bactrianus) in a Pasture within the Natural Steppe Zone

Biology Bulletin, 2018
Abstract—This paper reports the results of investigation on the food of free-grazing Bactrian camels in a forb–grass steppe pasture, including anthropogenically disturbed areas with dominance of ruderal annuals. We identified the composition of consumed plants using a microhistological analysis of the feces; the digestibility coefficient based on inert

Natural toxicants in the food supply:In vitroinvestigation of the potential mechanism of action of the dietary flavonoid quercetin

International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition, 1993
Quercetin, a natural flavonoid, is a well-known genotoxin, but its carcinogenicity is unclear. The objective of these studies was to investigate and compare the effects on glycolytic flux of quercetin and the known toxic xenobiotic phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) in a cell culture model. Rat kidney cells (NRK-49F) grown in culture were exposed to

Glutinous rice gel as all-natural ink supply for extrusion-based food 3D printing – the chemical basis of gel printability

Food Chemistry
In this study, four varieties of glutinous rice were screened out of 18 varieties as representative model inks. Gel prepared using variety WN9612 of high amylose content displayed high viscosity and large overall print deviation (OPD = 17.4 ± 0.4 %) due to difficulties in extrusion.

Dynamic analysis of a delayed pest-natural enemy model: Triple effects of non-monotonic functional response, additional food supply and habitat complexity

International Journal of Biomathematics
Considering the food diversity of natural enemy species and the habitat complexity of prey populations, a pest-natural enemy model with non-monotonic functional response is proposed for biological management of Bemisia tabaci. The dynamic characteristics of the proposed model are analyzed.
