PRODUCTION AND OPTIMIZATION OF PECTINASE BY BACILLUS SP. ISOLATED FROM VEGETA...SUS GROUP OF INSTITUTIONS
Microbial enzymes have shown tremendous potential for different applications. Over the years due to their remarkable features enzymes have occupied the centre stage of all the biochemical and industrial processes. Pectinases are a group of enzymes responsible for the hydrolysis of pectic materials found in plants and are important industrial enzymes. In the present study, pectinase is produced from Bacillus sp. that was isolated from vegetable waste dump soil samples. A total of five isolates showed pectinase production and designated as PPB1 to PPB5. The screened isolates were used as a source of pectinase production using cassava waste as a substrate. Isolate PPB5 showed maximum enzyme activity of 0.641 IU/ml. Pectinase activity was optimized for various parameters like incubation time, temperature, pH, different carbon and nitrogen sources. Enzyme activity was observed maximum at 96 hr of incubation, 35°C temperature and at pH 6. The best carbon was found to be glucose. Among organic and inorganic nitrogen sources yeast extract and ammonium nitrate was founded to be better than other nitrogen sources. Among the five isolates, the isolate PPB5 showed maximum activity at all optimum conditions. This isolate is best producer and can be used in future for further pectinase production.

Oxidative enzymes activity in sugarcane juice as a function of the planting s...Ana Maria Lozano Florez
This study examined the effects of different sugarcane planting systems, soil coverings, and hydrogel polymer treatments on the oxidative enzyme activity in sugarcane juice. Samples were taken from sugarcane crops monthly for eight months and analyzed for polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD) enzyme activity. The results showed that soil coverings and planting systems did not impact enzyme activity levels. However, hydrogel polymer treatments increased PPO activity, particularly in furrow planting systems. Enzyme activities also fluctuated over the course of the experimental months.

A Study on the Removal of Pesticide Residues on Potatoes Using Moringa oleife...AI Publications
Moringa oleifera (MO) is a plant whose seeds possess strong coagulation properties capable of removing turbidity and heavy metals from water. In this study, the effectiveness of MO seeds as a potential pesticide removal apparatus for agricultural produce was investigated. The parameters of interest for each pesticide washing solution were pesticide-concentration reduction, cost, and taste alteration to the potatoes. Separate doses of 0.25 mL profenofos 500 EC were individually applied to distinct 250 g pesticide-free potato piles. A submersion of each tainted potato pile was carried out in one of the chosen pesticide baths (mineral water, 2% salt solution, 10% salt solution, vegetable bath wash, and 10 g MO seed) for 10 min, followed by a 10 second mineral water bath rinse. Remaining profenofos residue concentrations on potatoes were quantified using the quick, easy, cheap, rugged, and simple QuEChERs method coincided with High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The experiments showed that the MO seed was the most effective at removing profenofos at 52.9% followed by the vegetable bath at 47.3%. Neither method caused an alteration in food taste, but the MO seed method is significantly cheaper at 2,000/L IDR ($0.14 USD) compared to the vegetable bath at IDR 10,668/L ($0.77 USD) at the time of the experiment, respectively.

Quantifying phytate in dairy digesta and feces- Alkaline extraction and high-...Partha Ray
This document describes the development of a method to accurately quantify undigested phytate in ruminant feces and digesta. Samples were collected from dairy heifers and cows fed diets varying in phytate content to challenge extraction and quantification methods. Alkaline extraction using NaOH and EDTA yielded greater estimates of phytate in digesta and fecal samples than acid extraction, but alkaline extracts cannot be directly analyzed by high-performance ion chromatography (HPIC) due to matrix interference. The proposed method combines the extraction power of alkaline extraction with the precision of HPIC analysis by acidifying alkaline extracts and filtering to remove matrix interference before HPIC quantification. Validation tests found near complete recovery of added phyt

The document discusses the Canasat Project, which uses remote sensing satellite images to monitor sugarcane crops in Brazil. It summarizes the project's use of satellite data to estimate sugarcane area, identify expansion and renovation, track pre-harvest burning, and analyze land use change. Spatial-temporal analysis of MODIS images from 2000-2008 showed land use changes from pasture to agriculture to sugarcane. The project is also developing models and research to better understand indirect land use change from sugarcane expansion.
O documento fornece informações sobre a produção de cana-de-açúcar no Brasil em 2008-2009, incluindo área colhida, produção, rendimento e produção de etanol. Também discute a contribuição de energia fóssil no processo e as emissões de gases de efeito estufa associadas.

This document discusses an integrated sugarcane and livestock production model in Brazil. It finds that the most important integration is with livestock production on pastures. An urgent and large-scale integration is needed that adapts to different livestock systems and will not be adopted under regular expansion patterns. The integration would involve using sugarcane mill residues to produce complete rations for cattle at the mill sites. This would create an economic incentive for cattle production to remain integrated with crops and prevent its migration. The integration is found to potentially increase food production, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and promote regional development by re-investing profits locally.
