Optimization of Red Pigment Yield from Monscus purpureus Solid State Fermentation (Isolation and Characterization of Monscus purpureus and Optimization of its Red Pigment Production)
Abstract: Natural pigments production is one of the important approaches recently for being natural and having therapeutic properties. Monscus purpureus was isolated from imported red yeast rice, characterized and propagated on local rice as solid state culture. Morphological characteristics which include colonies, ascosporous and conidial stage were used to identify the fungi besides its red pigment production. Red pigment was produced using 10% of seed culture of Monescus purpureus, incubated at …

Comprehensive Overview of Carbohydrate Polymers
Abstract: Targeting drug delivery specifically to the colon has become increasingly crucial for treating various colonic diseases like colorectal cancer, amebiasis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s disease. Numerous strategies have been developed for this purpose, including using enzymatically degradable polymers, employing prodrug-based approaches, coating drugs with polymers sensitive to time or pH changes, utilizing osmotically and pressure-controlled delivery systems. Polysaccharides activated by the colon's physiological environment show significant potential as they offer …

Multi-Sensor System for Underwater Pothole Detection to Enhance Road Safety During Monsoon Seasons
Abstract: Monsoon seasons across India and similar tropical regions severely compromise road safety by causing water accumulation that conceals dangerous potholes beneath stagnant pools, leading to frequent vehicle damage, tire punctures, and fatal accidents. Traditional detection methods relying on smartphone accelerometers, ultrasonic sensors, or machine vision fail under flooded conditions due to acoustic signal reflection at water surfaces and optical distortions from glare and turbidity. This research proposes an innovative multi-sensor …

Utilization of Jackfruit as a Potential Supplement in Yoghurt and Evaluation of Its Nutritional and Commercial Aspects
Abstract: This study aimed to formulate fruit juice yoghurt by incorporating nutritious and flavorful jackfruit juice, known for its health benefits. Jackfruit juice was added at different levels (5%, 10%, and 15%) to yoghurt, and various chemical, microbiological, bioactive compounds, and sensory quality characteristics were analyzed. Statistical analysis revealed that panelist acceptability decreased with increasing fruit juice level. Among the samples, yoghurt with 10% jackfruit juice showed significantly different sensory characteristics …

Fruit Yield Production Potential of Tomato Genotypes during Summer Season
Abstract: The aim of this experiment was to investigate heat tolerance of tomato genotypes (C11, C21, C41, C71, WP10, FP5 and HT025) during summer under Sylhet condition. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. The highest number of branches per plant was recorded in C71 (15.41) and lowest was recorded in WP10 (2.43). Stem diameter ranged from C51 (4.29 cm) to C71 (3.11 cm). The …

Evaluation of Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) Germplasm
Abstract: AbstractThe experiment was conducted with the existing bearing trees of different jackfruit genotypes at Jamalpur region during the year 2014–2015. Twenty-three jackfruit germplasm viz., AHJ-01, AHJ-02, AHJ-03, AHJ-04, AHJ-05, AHJ-06, AHJ-07, AHJ-08, AHJ-09, AHJ-10, AHJ-11, AHJ-12, AHJ-13, AHJ-14, AHJ-15, AHJ-16, AHJ-17, AHJ-18, AHJ-19, AHJ-20, AHJ-21, AHJ-22 and AHJ-23 were selected for the study to identify superior ones. The recorded age of the selected tress ranged from 8 to 29 years. …
