6. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION All the results generated from the present study are represented in the respective tables. The powdered gum of Acacia arabica was subjected to preliminary organoleptic evaluation. The scanty availability of information on this plant facilitates the study on it. The attempt is made to study the Pharmacognostical, phytochemical and pharmacological activities of gum of the plant. The study was divided into three major parts viz. • Pharmacognostical studies •…

wants to come home to flooding or standing water in their home. Residential water damage is not only overwhelming, it can lead to costly damages if not taken care of quickly. Significant property damage, such as mold growth and major damage to wooden floors, cabinets, drywall, insulation and other structural materials and contents can occur when homes are not dried quick enough. When disaster strikes your home, you need qualified professionals to respond to water damage quickly and work…

Amylose content of starches lies between 16.96 -24.69. The B-granules of the both varieties showed the lower value of amylose content while A- granules attributed to the high amylopectin to amylose ratio. Swelling power results the ability of starch to hydrate in specific cooking and heating process (90 °C/ 30 min.). The variation in swelling power of the starch and starch granules is due to change in strength in the bond forces with the granules (Leach et al.). Starch amylose content and…

WORKABILITY OF THE CONCRETE Fly ash particles are spherical in shape with high fineness and low carbon content this reduces the quantity of water required for a given slump (Zulu, 2014). This means that a mix with Portland cement would have a higher water content of the same workability compared to the fly ash mix. It is estimated that each 10% of fly ash added to a mix reduces the water content by 3%, this is dependent on the nature of the ash and other parameter of the mix (Thomas, 2007).…

The tissue water content drops during the hardening process from approximately 85% to 65-70% range as creeping bentgrass begins to enter dormancy (Beard, 1997). The low-temperature hardiness for creeping bentgrass is similar to that of Kentucky bluegrass and more than likely has a similar drop in tissue water content and accumulation of carbohydrates. In contract, perennial ryegrass is unable to lower its water content below 80%, resulting in increased likelihood…

the quality of water because it affects the toxicity and the solubility of chemical substances and heavy metals. This causes the concentration of hydrogen ions in the water to change from the normal pH range for water of 6.5 to 8.5. This change causes the water quality to diminish because more harmful chemicals are dissolved in the water releasing toxins. The quality of water will ultimately decrease with these substances present. As well, if the water acidity…

juice was described by Arrhenius equation. The effect of added solid content on viscosity of enzyme clarified beetroot juice was studied followed by exponential type equation at the temperature. A combined single relation Newtonian viscosity to temperature and added solid content of different carrier material in enzyme…

higher moisture, ash, fat, protein and carbohydrates (10.61%, 13.09%, 2.44%, 11.17% and 56.02%, respectively) as compared to sharlyn melon peel powder. On the other hand, the sharlyn melon peels had higher content of crud fiber (29.59%) as compared to watermelon rinds (17.28%). The crud fiber content in watermelon rind and sharlyn melon peel powder was higher than navel orange peels (13.38%) and mandarin peels (7.14%) as mentioned by Magda et al. (2008). It means that the utilization of…

Discussion: In sample, B there was 16% salt, which is unnaturally higher than the global average of 3.5%. When I asked about the reason of this, I found that the water was artificially created. This was also the case of Sample, A which had 9% of salt. That is about 3x the amount of salt from the global average. All though this is not an experiment with data, that we can apply to real life, it was still great fun to do the experiment and the lessons I learnt will stick with me for a long time.…
