Proximate composition and bioaccumulation of heavy metals in edible Achatina spp in some rural agro-settlements, south-east Nigeria

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2021
Background Animals that live and feed on the soil and its constituents and products naturally absorb heavy metals and pass to other organisms linked in the food chains.

Proximate composition and serving sizes of selected composite Ghanaian soups

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development, 2020
Soups are major components of Ghanaian dishes. The composite nature of Ghanaian soups, in general, tend to make the calorie and macronutrient composition highly variable. This study sought to determine the proximate composition of selected Ghanaian soups from defined recipes and to photographically present quantities of the soups, measured with common ...

DigiChrom: A Domain Ontology for Semantic Representation of Trivalent Chromium Platings and Its Large Language Model‐Based Alignment With Multiple Mid‐Level Ontologies

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Digitalizing electroplating requires both domain knowledge and interoperability. This work introduces PlatOn, a domain ontology for trivalent chromium plating and coating characterization, and a hybrid pipeline that aligns it to a mid‐level reference ontology by combining eight similarity metrics with language model reasoning. Expert‐validated mappings

Effect of salt stress on proximate composition of duckweed (Lemna minor L.)

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
The shortage of conventional feedstuff is one of the rising issues faced by the developing countries of the world. To bridge the gap between supply and demand of the major feedstuff it is desirable to practice the use of non-conventional feed resources ...

Variational analysis of proximal compositions and integral proximal mixtures

open access: yesEvolution Equations and Control Theory
This paper establishes various variational properties of parametrized versions of two convexity-preserving constructs that were recently introduced in the literature: the proximal composition of a function and a linear operator, and the integral proximal mixture of arbitrary families of functions and linear operators.

Resolvent of the parallel composition and the proximity operator of the infimal postcomposition

open access: yesOptimization Letters, 2022
In this paper we provide the resolvent computation of the parallel composition of a maximally monotone operator by a linear operator under mild assumptions. Connections with a modification of the warped resolvent are provided. In the context of convex optimization, we obtain the proximity operator of the infimal postcomposition of a convex function by ...

Unusual Temperature‐Enhanced Bulk Photovoltaic Effect Beyond the Centrosymmetric Phase in CuCrP2S6 van der Waals Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Contrary to conventional expectations, the bulk photovoltaic effect in CuCrP2S6 is enhanced rather than suppressed upon transitioning into the crystallographically centrosymmetric phase. Dynamic Cu‐ion disorder creates transient polar states, which substantially amplifies zero‐bias photocurrent (shift‐current) generation, establishing dynamic symmetry ...

Effects of storage conditions on quality characteristics of commercial aquafeeds and growth of African catfish Clarias gariepinus

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Fisheries, 2016
This study was conducted to determine the effect of storage conditions on the quality of feed and the aftermath effect of feeding fish with such feeds. Three commercial diets used for this study included Coppens®, Multifeed® and Vital feed®.
