Response Surface Methodology For Studying The Effect Of Processing Conditions On Some Nutritional And Textural Properties Of Bambara Groundnuts (Voandzei Subterranea) During Canning, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Agnes Simpson Budu, Alan Bullock Merson
Response Surface Methodology For Studying The Effect Of Processing Conditions On Some Nutritional And Textural Properties Of Bambara Groundnuts (Voandzei Subterranea) During Canning, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Agnes Simpson Budu, Alan Bullock Merson

The response surface methodology and central composite rotatable design for K=3 was used to study the combined effect of blanching, soaking and sodium hexametaphosphate salt concentration on moisture, ash, leached solids, phytates, tannins and hardness of bambara groundnut during canning. Regression models were developed to predict the effects of the processing parameters on the studied indices. Significant interactions were observed between all the factors with high regression coefficients (64.4-82.6%). Blanching and soaking of the seeds prior to canning led to increases in moisture content and leached solids, while significant decreases were observed for phytates, tannins and hardness of the canned …

In The Heat Of The Law, It's Not Just Steam: Geothermal Resources And The Impact On Thermophile Biodiversity, Donald J. Kochan, Tiffany Grant

Significant research has been conducted into the utilization of geothermal resources as a ‘green’ energy source. However, minimal research has been conducted into geothermal resource utilization and depletion impacts on thermophile biodiversity. Thermophiles are organisms which have adapted over millions of year to extreme temperature and chemical compositions and exist in hot springs and other geothermal resources. Their ability to withstand high temperatures makes them invaluable to scientific and medical research. Current federal and California case law classify geothermal resources as a mineral, not a water resource. Acquisition of rights to develop a geothermal resource owned or reserved by the …
