Aloe vera Tannin Ameliorates Fructose‐Induced Dyslipidaemia and Oxidative Stress in Wistar Rats

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Aloe vera tannin (AVT) significantly enhances liver reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase activities in rats. Fructose consumption creates dyslipidaemia in rats by significantly increasing serum cholesterol and LDL levels. AVT prevented fructose‐induced dyslipidaemia in rats by controlling the lipid profile. AVT did not affect liver, hippocampus

Chemical Composition Indicators in Sugar Cane Based on the Re-Shooting Age, Plant Variety, and Plant Fraction

Revista de Producción Animal, 2018
The general goal of this paper was to assess the behavior of chemical composition indicators (dry matter, ash, gross protein, phosphorous, and potassium) of two new sugar cane varieties, according to plant fraction and re-shooting age.

Legacy Knowledge on Landscape Soil Carbon—Concentrated Organic Input to Selected Sites Comes With the Expense of Soil Health of Larger Areas

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xu et al. show that high organic input and N‐balancing fertilization improve soil health at the soil plot scale; however, the effects of allocating C and N on soil health at the landscape or region scale are not considered. Historical soil management systems show that such a depletive redistribution leads to local agricultural improvements ...

Modelling and optimal control of plate evaporators [PDF]

, 1995
Evaporators are an important stage in the extraction of sugar from sugar cane. A model of a simple evaporator is developed and then extended to multiple stage evaporation.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Fermentation techniques for protein enrichment of cassava peel

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The use of agro‐industrial by‐products such as unconventional feeds in animal production is an alternative for reducing the high costs associated with conventional feeds. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of aeration, pH adjustment, the use of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and the amount of urea on the enrichment of ...

Impact of Sugarcane Management Practices and Time Periods on Soil Organic Carbon and δ13C Signature After Paddy Rice Conversion

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land use change (LUC) from paddy rice to sugarcane cultivation strongly influences soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, with the extent and direction of change depending on residue management and time since conversion. This study aimed to (i) evaluate SOC stock changes under different residue management practices and conversion periods following ...

Successive Mechanical Recycling of Poly(lactic Acid) by Injection Molding: Evolution of Molecular, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigated how successive injection molding recycling affects the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Gel permeation chromatography showed a two‐thirds molar mass reduction after ten reprocessing cycles. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed lower glass transition and cold crystallization temperatures.
