Attempt on Hydrolysis of Larval Stages of the Black-Soldier-Fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) for the Analysis of Utilitarian Properties
Abstract: The enzyme involved hydrolysis is dealing with disintegration of the complex compounds through utilization of enzymes (or the source of enzymes) followed by the reaction with water. The present attempt is dealing with analysis of influence of chemical protein- extraction reaction, and hydrolysis through the use of enzymes (Alcalase, Papain and Pepsin) on the functional-properties, activity of antioxidation and composition of amino-acids of the protein contents of black soldier fly …

A New Method of Juice Concentration using a Hydrogen Bubbles Photoelectroflotation Process Powered by Solar
Abstract: Currently, juice concentrates are produced by extracting water from freshly squeezed juice. To extract water from freshly squeezed juice, one of the following methods is used: evaporation, freezing of water, or the use of diaphragms. When evaporating, freshly squeezed juice is heated in a vacuum in special trays, but not to the boiling point, since boiling the juice will destroy all its useful substances. The mass, obtained after evaporation is …
