Chemically Well-Defined Extender for Preservation of Black Bengal Buck Semen
Abstract: This experiment was carried with the aim to prepare a chemically well defined semen extender with soybean lecithin (SL) for cryopreservation of black Bengal buck semen. Semen samples were collected from five black Bengal bucks. The semen samples were extended in Tris buffer with 5% glycerol containing either 15% egg yolk (control group) or SL at different concentrations (1, 1.5 and 2% SL). The semen samples were cooled gradually to …

Polymer Chemistry in Nutraceutical Composites: Exploring Natural Polymers and Binding Systems in a Bamboo-Enhanced Formulation
Abstract: Polymer chemistry underpins the development of advanced nutraceutical composites, blending natural polymers with functional ingredients for health benefits. This study examines a novel nutraceutical formulation comprising ragi (16.39 g/100g), wheat (12.29 g/100g), soybean (12.29 g/100g), buffalo milk (16.39 g/100g), buffalo butter (4.13 g/100g), bamboo extract (0.90 g/100g), and auxiliary components (37.61 g/100g, including fats, sugars, and proteins). Natural polymers—proteins from soybean and milk, polysaccharides from ragi and wheat—form a macromolecular …

Productions and Characterization of Biodiesel by Base Catalyzed Transesterification Reaction from Dairy Waste Scum of DEI Dairy, Agra
Abstract: With the increase in prices and rapid depletion of petroleum-based fuels, the investigation is being done to look over an alternative fuel source. Presently, the biodiesel is mainly produced from vegetable sources such as jatropa oil, karanja oil, rapeseed, soybean, and others that could overlap with nutritional requirement of the society if produced at large scale. Also, the production cost of biodiesel from vegetable and animal sources is very high …

Benefaction of Nutraceuticals for Human Health: Review
Abstract: Nutraceuticals are a broad category of palatable natural chemicals that are thought to offer benefits beyond their nutritional content. These can include foods high in nutrients, foods with therapeutic properties, or certain ingredients found in some foods, like dietary fiber, hydrolyzed protein, garlic, ginger, omega-3, soybean, minerals, vitamins, fortified foods, enriched foods, and even recombinant goods. People are becoming more concerned about their health due to the long work hours …

Impact of Specially Prepared Food on Indian Big Carp Growth in West Bengal, India’s Cooch Behar District
Abstract: This four-year longitudinal study (2008–2012) in the Cooch Behar District of West Bengal, India, utilized on-farm ponds to evaluate the comparative growth performance of Indian Major Carps (IMCs) – Catla catla, Labeo rohita, and Cirrhinus mrigala – when subjected to four distinct supplementary feed formulations: fishmeal (A), soybean meal (B), silkworm pupae (C), and mustard oilcake (D). The experimental design contrasted treated ponds receiving formulated feed against control ponds relying …

Application of Ultrasound for Synthesis of Biodiesel
Abstract: The aim of study is to synthesize a biodiesel from soybean oil using ultrasonic process. At present, biodiesel is produced in batch reactors in which the required energy is provided by heating by mechanical mixing. Alternatively, ultrasonic processing is an effective way to attain required mixing providing the necessary activation energy. Ultrasonic is a very desirable tool for producing biodiesel from vegetable oil and animal fats, because it lowers the …

Catalysed Biofuels Using Vegetable Oils and Animal Fats
Abstract: It is a first to use biochemical modification of fats to create fuel for transport. The chemical transformation is required to produce products that are more useful and have qualities similar to those of crude oil-derived fuels. Biodiesel (a combination of methyl esters produced by transesterification) and green diesel are the two forms of fuels discussed (paraffins produced by hydrogenation of oils). Three bio-lubricant synthesis strategies are also discussed. Biofuels …

Production of Renewable fuel from a high invasive risk native plant
Abstract: Petroleum has been the transportation fuel of choice for more than a century now, but it’s not the only fuel that can run our cars and trucks. Some of the most promising replacements for oil come from organic biomass, including crops such as corn, switch grass, eucalyptus, soybeans and algae, wood, the main sources for the renewable fuels in use today. Bioethanol and Biodiesel are the most widely used renewable …

Biofertilizers: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow
Abstract: India, being an agriculture-based country, there has always been a concern about crop improvement here. Chemical fertilizers increased crops yield, but eventually leached out soil, polluted water basins, degraded ecosystems, reducing soil fertility and thus causing damage to overall environment. Organic fertilizers are costlier and they released nutrients in the surrounding environment thus degrading soil and water quality and human health. Thus came into picture the use of GM crops …

Probiotics: A New Concept In Prophylaxis
Abstract: Foods that have health benefits beyond the traditional nutrients possessed by them are called functional foods or nutraceuticals. These are generally characterized as foods similar in appearance to conventional foods, consumed as part of usual diets and elicit health benefits beyond meeting the basic nutritional requirements. Functional foods reduce risk of diseases but they do not act as a vehicle to address deficiency. They are a source of mental and …

Synthesis and Characterization of Biofuel from Non-edible Seed Oil
Abstract: There are many medicinal application found in sapodilla fruit, bark leaves and seeds like inhibition of ehrlich ascites carcinoma, in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activity, free radical scavenging activity and antimicrobial activity. Biodiesel is a more attractive product from sapodilla seed oil to diesel engines, because of seeds are chiefly available and non-edible to all human being. Since most of the biodiesel were derived from edible oils like soybean, …

Supplementing Wheat Protein to Improve and Complement Its Nutritional Quality
Abstract: Protein concentrates from lobia seeds, soybean, hyacinth beans and milk (casein and whey) were prepared following isoelectric precipitation. The percent moisture/protein content of these concentrates was 5.01±0.03/84.81±2.19; 5.15±0.06/86.60±1.66; 5.11±0.03/83.28±1.42, 8.19±0.15/86.03±0.68 and10.21±0.04/77.5±0.68 respectively. Acidic and alkaline hydrolysis of these concentrates was carried out in steam under pressure conditions (121°C) at different time intervals (60, 120 and 180 min). Hydrolysis treatment in both the conditions for 180 min resulted into improved separation …
