... aquatic life. Different physicochemical methods have been used to reduce these pollutants but all have their own limitations including production of secondary pollutants. The current study was designed to show the effect of cellulolytic and sulphate-reducing bacterial species in the form of a co-culture to treat an in-vitro prepared sulphate-rich wastewater while employing various agro-industrial organic waste as economical growth substrates. A combination of...

...us binder options on the physicochemical quality of wafer supplements containing prill fat, as well as their impact on fermentation and digestibility in dairy cows in vitro. Molasses with viscosities of 320 mPas-1 and 6400 mPas-1 were utilized alongside pollard binders, cassava meal, and cassava waste. The experimental design employed a 2x3 factorial pattern CRD with 5 replicates. Analysis of Variance and DMRT were employed to assess treatment differences, foc...

...oney and will reduce the physicochemical and nutritional attributes due to its heat sensitivity. Hence, ultrasound which is a non- thermal processing was chosen as an alternative method to minimize the quality loss during the processing of Kelulut honey. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound processing on the quality of Kelulut honey. The ultrasound processing was conducted at five different amplitudes (20, 40, 60, 80, and 100%)...

...e the microbial quality, physicochemical characteristics, shelf life, and sensory attributes of food products has become an issue of interest to researchers and consumers alike. Lactic acid bacteria, especially Lactobacillus plantarum, have been frequently used as a starter culture for fermented sausage production. Water Kefir is another valuable product that causes sausage fermentation and enhances its flavor, quality, and shelf life. Therefore, this study wa...

...e the seasonal impact of physicochemical parameters of water and heavy metals on the population dynamics of rotifers at specific sites of Khanki Headworks, District Gujranwala, Punjab, Pakistan from February 2021 to January 2022. During this time period, 34 species of rotifers belonging to 10 families and 12 different genera were identified. Brachionidae was proved to be the most abundant family followed by Asplanchnidae. Population density was maximum in June...
