Hydromorphological and physicochemical conditions of the Parsęta River

Bulletin of Geography. Physical Geography Series, 2018
Abstract Rivers are hydromorphologically assessed in line with the Water Framework Directive. In order to assess the quality of the Parsęta River environment, the River Habitat Survey method was applied. The research studies, conducted in June 2016, provided an overview of hydromorphological issues, and also covered measurements and ...

Effect of storage conditions on microbiological and physicochemical quality of shea butter [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2010
Storage conditions are key constraints for quality assurance of the shea (Vitellaria paradoxa Gaertner) butter. In the Sudan savannah Africa, storage conditions of butter produced by women vary across and among processors, traders and consumers. These conditions could impact the quality of the products and reduced their access to international market ...
