Abstract:
... Bamboo wine can be made from bamboo shoot juice or from bamboo leaves. Bamboo wine made from the shoot juice of Oxytenanthera abyssinica is a product of fermentation. Bamboo wine made from bamboo leaves is normally an alcoholic extract or a product of fermented mixture leaf extract and starchy food material. These two kinds of wine are rich in water-soluble B vitamins and essential, nonessential a ...

Abstract:
... This paper investigated the effect of extrusion treatment on the rheological properties, in vitro digestibility, and multi-structure of starch with or without bamboo shoot dietary fiber (BSDF). The viscoelasticity and thixotropy decreased after extrusion treatment, however, they increased after BSDF addition, and decreased with increasing BSDF content. The starch granules became smooth and formed ...

Abstract:
... We propose an inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging algorithm for a composite target-ocean scene based on time-domain shooting and bouncing rays (TDSBR) method. To do this, we develop the TDSBR method to simulate the electromagnetic scattering echoes from a composite target-ocean scene. Then, we derive the ISAR imaging formulas based on electromagnetic scattering field expressions. The d ...
... Bamboo shoot shells (BSS) were treated at hydrothermal temperatures of 160 °C, 180 °C, and 200 °C with residence times of 6 h, 8 h, and 10 h. The variation of ash-forming elements and the influence of deashing behavior on fuel and pyrolysis characteristics of BSS hydrochars were originally investigated during hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) process. The results showed that HTP decreased 53.82–64.0 ...

Abstract:
... In Indonesia, sugarcane and sugar production during the last ten years (2010–2019) fluctuated considerably and showed a declining trend due to several reasons. The achievements of sugarcane production were mainly influenced by the availability of superior sugarcane varieties developed by the domestic sugarcane breeding programs. Historically, sugarcane breeding in Indonesia was started during the ...
proleptic shoots, etc ; Populus; biomass production; cluster analysis; forestry; fuel production; leaf area; leaf area index; leaves; phenotype; research; scanners; tree crown; Show all 13 Subjects
Abstract:
... Branch phenotypic traits determine tree crown architecture, which in turn governs leaf display, light interception, and biomass production. Sylleptic and proleptic branches are the obviously different branch phenotypes in the poplar crown. Many studies have focused on the influence of sylleptic branch numbers (SBN) on biomass production, but the research on the influence of proleptic branch phenot ...

Abstract:
... Bamboo shoot is highly nutritious and contains a plethora of health-promoting bioactive compounds. It is a valuable source of food for Asiatic countries but it contains some antinutrients such as cyanogenic glycosides, glucosinolates, tannins, oxalates and phytates which deter its consumption due to safety issues. The most predominant antinutrient in bamboo shoot is cyanogenic glycosides. It cause ...

Abstract:
... Variation potential (VP) is an important long-distance electrical signal in higher plants that is induced by local damages, influences numerous physiological processes, and participates in plant adaptation to stressors. The transmission of increased hydraulic pressure through xylem vessels is the probable mechanism of VP propagation in plants; however, the rates of the pressure transmission and VP ...

Abstract:
... The nutrition and quality of bamboo shoots from different species have a large variation, and traditional methods used for the classification of different bamboo shoot species are expensive and time-consuming. Here, the capability of near-infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy to identify bamboo shoot species in a time- and cost-effective manner was examined. The NIR spectra of four bamboo shoot ...
... An advanced direction in marksmanship training of biathletes is teaching the rules of shooting: «marking» of a shot; defining the mean point of impact; correcting the sight; offset shooting. Teaching the rules of shooting using electronic devices will help to achieve the aim without a coach and will help to save cartridges. The article presents the description of the teaching programs algorythms f ...

Abstract:
... The reduction of speckle noise by physically changing the pupil of the imaging system, as first envisioned in optical holography, is experimentally applied to a digital holographic microscope (DHM). The imaging pupil of a DHM, operating in image plane telecentric-afocal architecture, is changed in a controlled way between successive recordings, allowing the shooting of multiple partially-decorrela ...

Abstract:
... The toxicity, carcinogenicity and persistence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) pose a great threat to the ecological system and human health. The contamination levels, translocation and source analysis of 16 PAHs in bamboo shoot and its planted soil were investigated. The average concentrations of total PAHs were 18.80 ± 1.90 µg/kg and 123.98 ± 113.36 µg/kg in bamboo shoots and soils, re ...
... Phyllostachys edulis ‘Pachyloen’ can have a stalk wall thickness of up to 2.5 cm at a height of 1.3 m, which is 1.8 times that of normal Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis); this serves as an excellent cultivar, comprising both wood and bamboo shoots. We collected bamboo shoot samples of Phyllostachys edulis ‘Pachyloen’ and Moso bamboo on a monthly basis from September to April and used transcripto ...
... Bamboo(Phyllostachys edulis) shoot was reported to be rich in phenolics. In the present study, free phenolics, conjugated phenolics, and insoluble‐bound phenolics of oven‐drying and freeze‐drying bamboo shoot tips were extracted and separated, of which total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and their antioxidant activities were determined. Phenolics of different binding forms ...
... The study was conducted to investigate the influence of the culture pattern on plant uptake and translocation of an organic chemical and the resultant acute response of plants, and to further reveal the interconnection. Plant exposure experiments were performed using a conventional rice seedling (Oryza sativa L. subsp. indica) under two kinds of culture patterns (viz., hydroponics and soil-based c ...
... Bamboo plays important economic and cultural roles in China. While it only takes one growing season to grow to its maximum size, there has been little research investigating the ecological factors that influence the growth of bamboo shoots. This is particularly important as the staple food of wild giant pandas is bamboo. This research aimed to examine the effects of ecological factors on the growt ...

Abstract:
... When a firearm is discharged, gunshot residue (GSR) is produced and may be deposited on a shooter’s body and his close vicinity. The tendency of GSR to drop off easily from the shooter may hinder forensic detection; this well-known phenomenon is accelerated by various common physical activities so that the number of particles detected on a suspect decreases over time. After shooting incidents, sus ...
