Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the dressing percentage and physicochemical characteristics, such as fatty acid composition, water holding capacity (WHC), shear force, meat color, cooking loss, and senso...

Despite the effect of water content on radar backscattering is well known, isolating the contributions from soil, vegetation, and vegetation superficial water content (wetness) is still challenging. This work aim to char...

ABSTRACT Caesalpinia echinata seeds deteriorate in less than three months at ambient temperature, although they can remain viable for up to five years when kept under freezing temperatures. We studied the deterioration o...

Propiedades superficiales de los suelos como textura y materia orgánica, juegan un rol muy importante en procesos vinculados a la dinámica hídrica y a la degradación de las tierras. Los sistemas conservacionistas de ...

BackgroundIn practical engineering, the waterproof coal pillar usually suffers from different degrees of dynamic load from the overlying strata, and its internal water distribution is non-uniform. Although the traditiona...

The organic matter is an important symbol of peaty soil which is different from soft clay. The content of organic matter directly affects the physiochemical properties of peaty soil, and further affects its consolidation...

Abstract Background The use of biostimulants in agriculture has shown fabulous potential in combating climate change induced stresses such as drought. Improving agricultural productivity requires sustainable drought stre...

As a building material, the loess is usually required to be compacted in engineering construction, thus the deformation characteristics of compacted loess with the increase of water content are closely related to the saf...

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis causes bacterial wilt and canker in tomato. A detailed account of pathogen effects on growth and water parameters of affected plants is lacking. Besides, the long latent per...

Body composition analysis is relevant to characterize the nutritional requirements and finishing phase of fish. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between ichthyometric (weight, total and standard ...

ABSTRACT Solar radiation is one of the aspects which most influence species composition, so light is a limiting factor to tree growth in forests. This study aimed to evaluate the leaf morphological variations between ind...

The soft soils can meet the bearing needs of the constructions and infrastructures through the appropriate artificial treatment, and the carbonated MgO-mixing pile method is an innovative foundation treatment technology,...

A method to monitor seed germination that combines isothermal calorimetry and imbibition measurements is reported. Individual seeds of three cultivars of soybean seeds (A7636RG, Munasqa and DM5.8RR) and one of radish...

This study aims to determine the effect of the ratio of potato flour and tapioca flour and addition of kersen leaves powder on gluten-free wet noodles with a focus on proximate levels (water, ash, protein, fat, and carbo...

The instability of expansive soil slope is vital to the security of water supply in the Middle Route project of South-to-North Water Diversion. Anti-seepage control is considered as an effective method to deal with the i...

Abstract This study aimed to determine the physicochemical properties (proximate composition, color, pH, salinity, water holding capacity (WHC), curing yield, and shear force) and sensory properties (electric nose and se...

In semi-arid regions, plants develop various biochemical and physiological strategies to adapt to dry periods. Understanding the resistance mechanisms to dry periods under field conditions is an important topic in ecolog...

The opening and closing of stomata are controlled by the integration of environmental and endogenous signals. Here, we show the effects of combining elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration (eCO2; 600 μmol mol-...

"Four nickel-based catalysts are synthesized by wet impregnation and evaluated for the hydrotreatment/hydrodeoxygenation of beech wood fast-pyrolysis bio-oil. Parameters such as elemental analysis, pH value, and water c...

The aim of this work was to synthesize and to characterize new pH-sensitive hydrogels that can be used in the controlled release of drugs, useful for dermal treatments or ophthalmology's therapies. Copolymers containing ...

Chronic renal failure causes changes in body composition. Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorbsiometry (DEXA) and bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) are the techniques to evaluate body composition in chronic renal failure. In the ...

Abstract This study investigated the possible improvement in the antioxidative status and quality characteristics of ready-to-eat (RTE) Samgyetang after adding various black garlic (BG) extracts. The antioxidant activity...

BackgroundAluminum (Al) is a lightweight metal that is widely present in the environment and the human body. It has been documented to cause various adverse health effects including the suppression of humoral immunity.Ob...

Empty body and carcass chemical composition were determined in 67 Nellore bulls from Selection Nellore (NeS) and Control Nellore (NeC) herds of an animal breeding program for growth, slaughtered at 570 days of average ag...
