Antioxidant Property and Stability of an Indigenous Traditional Food Daangar pachadi
Abstract: In South India, a traditional food namely Daangar pachadi is prepared from black gram, cumin and yoghurt and consumed occasionally in certain places of Tamil Nadu, India. Even though several health benefits of yoghurt is proven scientifically, the health benefits of incorporation of black gram and cumin seeds in yoghurt is not yet investigated. In addition, effect of removal of seed coat from black gram on the total phenolic content …

Formulation and Evaluation of Face Scrub using Mango Seed as Natural Exfoliant
Abstract: In this study, face scrub as oil in water cream with different ratios of mango seed coats’ powder and stearic acid in 12 different batches has been formulated. Also, mango leaves extract has been used as an antioxidant. Particle size of abrasive agent used was within range of 400‑600 um. Prepared face scrub was evaluated by spreadability, total fatty material (TFM), extrudability and pH. Sample formulation scrub for stability testing …

Optimization of Seed Viability Tests for Humulus lupulus
Abstract: The Humulus lupulus member of the Hemp family has been extensively explored for their industrial application in diverse sectors. During the cultivation of this high-cost plant, one of the major concerns associated is low seed germination due to physical dormancy. The role of rigid seed coats in augmenting an impermeable barrier for water and nutrient availability to the seed has been well analyzed in previous studies. However, the associated impact …

Architectured Multiphase Polymeric Carriers with Microstructural Gradients: Synergistic Filler Effects for the Precision Delivery in Tuberous Plant Systems
Abstract: In this paper, 50 papers were reviewed to analyse the design, techniques, and applications of polymer composite systems for delivering agrochemicals against major tuberous plant pathogens, including fungi, bacteria, and nematodes. Primary tuber plant pathogens affecting yield are studied, followed by a study of control strategies. This is followed by a study of the basic properties of polymer composites, including the significance of natural and synthetic polymers. Then, the study …

Allelopathic Effect of Amaranthus Viridis.L Fresh Leaves on Chickpea Seeds Under in Vivo Condition
Abstract: Amaranthus viridis.L is a weed and its fresh leaves were collected from Charotar University of Science and technology campus. After cleaning the leaves were separated and taken for study purpose. One gram of fresh leaves was initially crushed to remove carotenoids. Then other one gram of fresh leaves was taken. Both types of fresh leaves along with control were considered for the experiment. Ten Chick pea (Cicer arientinum.L) seeds each …

Enhancing Delamination Resistance in CFRP Composites through surface Functionalization of Woven carbon Fiber by CuO Nanostructures
Abstract: In order to produce a nanostructured interphase that improves the interfacial interaction with an epoxy resin matrix, copper oxide (CuO) nanostructures were hydrothermally formed onto woven carbon fibers (WCF). Hexagonal CuO nanorods were created using a two-step, seed-assisted solvothermal technique on plain woven carbon fiber. This study investigates the effects of surface modification of carbon fibers by the formation of CuO nanostructures using a hydrothermal technique on the mechanical properties …

Morphological Study of Pollen Grains and Seeds in Two Species from the Family Poaceae in Iraq
Abstract: Pollen grains and seeds varied in size, color and surface decoration in the species of the genus under study. The shape, dimensions and characteristics of pollen and seeds are important in distinguishing the two genus, so the current study dealt with the phenotypic characteristics of pollen and seeds and took full measurements for them. The phenotypic study showed that the majority of the pollen grains were of a single-grooved style, …

Crosslinked Starch Polymer for Coating on Fruit/Vegetable for Preservation Derived from Waste De-Oiled Soybean Cake
Abstract: Cross-linked starch films have been prepared by reacting starch extracted from de-oiled soybean cake (waste material from oil industry) with bio-based acids citric acid and tartaric acid. The obtained films were characterized by spectroscopic, thermal and surface morphological techniques. Thermal analysis showed that thin film has good thermal stability. The micrographs obtained from scanning electron microscopy showed the film surface has smooth and uniform morphology. Biological properties like cytocompatibility, antimicrobial …
