Biotechnology in developing countries: opportunities in solid state fermentation applied in the agricultural industry
This paper summarises the experiences in Israel and elsewhere of the biotechnological processing of organic matter experiences that could be applied in developing countries. Emphasis is given to relatively simple technologies, and the applications include preservation of forage crops and by-products, mushroom cultivation and recovery of plant cell contents. These technologies might increase milk ...

An automated extraction solution for the determination of Melamine and Cyanuric Acid in Milk Based Products
Abstract The determination of Melamine and Cyanuric Acid go hand in hand with one another. Melamine is an industrial chemical used in the manufacturing of amino resins, plastics, and flame retardants. Cyanuric Acid is produced by the hydrolysis of raw or waste Melamine, followed by crystallization. Melamine is used as a profitable adulterant in milk based products to increase the protein content ...

Effect of nitrogen application on yield and quality of silage corn after forage legume-grass
Decomposition of forage legume-grass (FLG) sods after turnover will supply N to the next corn (Zea mays L.) crop. For optimum economic grain production typically a starter N application is sufficient. However, the impact of eliminating sidedress N on yield and quality of silage corn in the year after sod turnover (FYC) is not well documented and little is known about the effects of timing of sod ...

The Science of Genetics & Its Application to Aquaculture
Genetics is defined as that branch of the biological sciences devoted to the study of inherited variation. Genetics investigations deal with the “why” and “how” of this variation, examining both the origin of inherited variability and the resulting outward expression of characters due to this variability. The applications of genetics in today’s society are far ...

Milk Production Process: Pledge to Cut Emissions from Dairy Farms
Interest in the increasing carbon footprint of the dairy industry has grown considerably over the past few years and growing greenhouse gas emissions from the milk production process are a contributing factor. A number of greenhouse gases (GHG) are produced from fertiliser production through to consumption and disposal of packaging. Methane is produced as a direct emission from cows and carbon ...
