Comparative Study of Free and Total Fatty Acids of Spreadable Cheeses by Mass Spectrometry Methods

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the determination of FFAs in spreadable cheeses and alternatives using a fast Liquid Chromatography‐High Resolution Mass Spectrometry method. A Gas Chromatography‐Mass Spectrometry method was used to determine the composition (%) of total FAs in the same samples.

Genomic selection for non-key traits in radiata pine when the documented pedigree is corrected using DNA marker information

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Non-key traits (NKTs) in radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) refer to traits other than growth, wood density and stiffness, but still of interest to breeders.

Modelling of population structure through contemporary groups in genetic evaluation

BMC Genetics, 2019
Background Forest trees can occupy extensive geography and environmentally highly variable areas which result in high genetic variability in the direction of pressure from natural selection.

Natural forests in New Zealand – a large terrestrial carbon pool in a national state of equilibrium

Forest Ecosystems, 2021
Background Natural forests cover approximately 29% of New Zealand’s landmass and represent a large terrestrial carbon pool. In 2002 New Zealand implemented its first representative plot-based natural forest inventory to assess carbon stocks and stock ...

A novel bubbling fluid bed reactor for the autothermal pyrolysis of waste plastics

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract A new pilot‐scale fluidized bed reactor operated under continuous conditions was developed and tested for the thermal pyrolysis of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). The study focused on assessing the reliability and operability of the system under different operating conditions (400–550°C), while monitoring mass and energy balances, product ...

The microorganisms and metabolome of Pinus radiata Pollen

Environmental Microbiome
Background Pollen is a crucial source of nutrients and energy for pollinators. It also provides a unique habitat and resource for microbiota. Previous research on the microbiome of pollen has largely focused on angiosperm systems, with limited research ...

Carbon fraction of Pinus radiata biomass components within New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Forestry Science, 2018
Background Carbon fractions are applied to dry matter estimates to calculate carbon stocks in forest stands. A default carbon fraction has been applied to planted forest species in New Zealand; however, various studies have shown that the carbon fraction

An Assessment of High-Density UAV Point Clouds for the Measurement of Young Forestry Trials

Remote Sensing, 2020
The measurement of forestry trials is a costly and time-consuming process. Over the past few years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have provided some significant developments that could improve cost and time efficiencies.

Phenolic Resin‐Functionalized NH2‐UiO‐66‐Containing Mixed Matrix Membranes for CO2/CH4 Separation

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Phenolic resin‐functionalized small‐size RFin@NH2‐UiO‐66 nanofillers were prepared and combined with polyetherimide (PEI) matrix to construct mixed matrix membranes for effective CO2/CH4 separation. ABSTRACT For mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), the inherent structural features and composition of the embedded nanofillers play a pivotal role in governing ...
