13. Reordering of Depolymerized Silicates as Adsorbents for Large Nitrogen Compounds

The adsorption capacities of two synthesized zeolites (crystalline ZSM-5 and semi-crystalline faujasite Y) for a mixture of indole, quinoline and carbazole were studied. The different samples obtained show different crystalline degree, mesoporosity and Si/Al ratios. The synthesis procedure is based on the simultaneous depolymerization of a mixture of high su

14. Effects of alginate oligosaccharides treatment on preservation and fresh-keeping mechanism of shrimp during frozen storage

Abstract In this study, we investigated the influence of alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) coating on the quality of white shrimp (P. vannamei) at 4 ± 1 °C. We measured shrimp quality by surveying changes in certain properties, such as sensory quality, the microbiota, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), pH, and sensory characteristics. Compared to control

15. Freezing methods affect the characteristics of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea): use of cryogenic freezing for long-term storage

Abstract Large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) is the main coastal economic fish in China. After harvesting, the fish is rarely traded as the fresh product, but usually held in cold storage. Therefore, it is important to understand the quality changes occurring during preservation. In this study, freshly collected fishes were frozen by cryogenic (cabin

16. Nondestructive analysis of photosynthetic pigments in forage radish and vetch

ABSTRACT Chlorophylls and carotenoids are the main photosynthetic pigments in plants, and photosynthetic potential can be used to determine the nitrogen fixation or cycling capacity of cover crops. Therefore, this study quantified and compared the content of photosynthetic pigments in Raphanus sativus and Vicia sativa by using two different methods, namely t
