Abstract:
The Folin-Ciocalteu assay is a widely used method for measuring the total phenolic content (TPC) in honey, but it can be affected by the presence of reducing sugars in honey, which can lead to interference and an over-estimation of its TPC. To optimize the Folin-Ciocalteu assay for honey analysis, the effect of pH on the assay was investigated. A number of pH scenarios were tested using different concentrations of Na2CO3 (0.00%, 0.75%, 0.94%, and 7.50%) in order to minimize reducing sugar interference and maximize the reaction of phenolics in the assay. The modified TPC method was then validated in accordance with current International Council on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines. The findings of this study demonstrate that the traditional Folin-Ciocalteu assay (using 7.50% aqueous Na2CO3 solution, pH 10.8) leads to a significant overestimation of the TPC of honey due to the interference of reducing sugars. However, a pH of 7.9, achieved by using a 0.75% aqueous Na2CO3 solution, provides suitable conditions to account for most of the phenolic compounds without interference from reducing sugars. This finding was further confirmed by testing various sugar solutions and artificial honey which yielded TPC values below the established limit of detection and quantification of the assay. However, a slight increase in pH, even by a moderate deviation (pH 8.9), leads to significant discrepancies in absorbance readings, indicating that pH control is crucial for the accurate analysis of TPC in honey.

Abstract In the present work, the phenol-sulfuric acid method and the 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) method were developed with the aim to quantitatively analyze total sugars and reducing sugars, respectively. In regard with the phenol-sulfuric acid assay, 1.0 mL of sample was treated with 1.0 mL of 5% phenol, 5.0 mL of concentrated H2SO4 and measured at 485 nm, with the linearity range of 10–100 ppm for total sugars. The DNS method was performed on 2.0 mL of sample, using 1.5 mL of DNS at 80 °C for 10 minutes and measured at 510 nm, with the linearity range of 50–400 ppm for reducing sugars. The sugar contents of white dragon fruit-derived sugar-samples (extracted from species in Binh Thuan province, Vietnam) were also estimated by the above measured methods, exhibiting the total sugars of above 90% and the reducing sugars of above 5%. The methods were well-performed with the acceptable relative standard deviations of repeatability in accordance with the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC).

Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to investigate the reducing sugar, total phenolic content, and in vitro antioxidant activity of 70% ( v / v ) ethanolic extract of seven medicinal plants grown in Nepal. The reducing sugar content and total phenolic content were determined by 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) and the Folin–Ciocalteu method, respectively. The in vitro antioxidant activity was evaluated using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The reducing sugar content of the studied plant samples ranged from 6.89 ± 2.44 to 674.13 ± 2.43 mg GE/g dry extract weight and the total phenolic content ranged from 14.87 ± 0.41 to 281.71 ± 1.47 mg GAE/g dry extract weight. The reducing sugar and total phenolic content were found highest in Ficus glaberrima. Antioxidant activity was found highest in Melastoma malabathricum (IC50 value = 6.27 μg/mL), followed by F. glaberrima (IC50 value = 11.7 μg/mL). A positive and significant correlation was found between (i) total phenolic content and reducing sugar content and (ii) total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. The present study is the first study for the analysis of reducing sugar content of selected plants and for the scientific exploration of F. glaberrima. The present result suggests that the various parts of these studied plants could be assumed as a rich source of biologically active compounds and considered beneficial for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract:
An experiment was carried out in the Instructional cum Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Biswanath College of Agriculture, Assam Agricultural University, Biswanath Chariali, Assam during 2015-16 to analyse the qualitative characters of strawberry varieties in subtropical climatic condition of Assam. Five varieties namely, Cristal (V1), Subarina (V2), Sweet Charlie (V3), Winter Dawn (V4) and Eliyana (V5) were selected and planted in three cultivation situations i.e. open condition (S1), poly house (S2) and in net house (S3). Altogether 15 treatment combinations were laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. Total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity, total sugars, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, ascorbic acid content and anthocyanin content were selected as qualitative characters of strawberry in the experiment. The data revealed that the qualitative characters of fruits in terms of total soluble solids (8.13°Brix), total sugars (6.60%), reducing sugars (3.29%), non-reducing sugars (3.31%) and anthocyanin content (20.01 mg/100g) were significantly higher in strawberry variety Subarina as compared to other varieties. The variety “Subarina” performed well in all the environmental conditions as compared to the other varieties. Titratable acidity of fruits ranged from 0.53 to 0.68 percent among all the treatment combinations and no significant differences were found among the varieties, cultivation situations or their interaction. The ascorbic acid content was significantly higher in Cristal (32.19 mg/100 g) followed by Subarina (31.18 %). The results of the study revealed that the performance in terms of qualitative characters of fruits were superior in Subarina as compared to other four varieties. The variety “Subarina” performed well in terms of quality in all the cultivation situations as compared to other four varieties selected under the study.

Abstract:
Abstract An AOAC collaborative study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of an enzyme assay kit procedure for measuring oligofructans and fructan polysaccharide (inulins) in mixed materials and food products. The sample is extracted with hot water, and an aliquot is treated with a mixture of sucrase (a specific sucrose-degrading enzyme), α-amylase, pullulanase, and maltase to hydrolyze sucrose to glucose and fructose, and starch to glucose. These reducing sugars are then reduced to sugar alcohols by treatment with alkaline borohydride solution. The solution is neutralized, and excess borohydride is removed with dilute acetic acid. The fructan is hydrolyzed to fructose and glucose using a mixture of purified exo- and endo-inulinanases (fructanase mixture). The reducing sugars produced (fructose and glucose) are measured with a spectrophotometer after reaction with para-hydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide. The samples analyzed included pure fructan, chocolate, low-fat spread, milk powder, vitamin tablets, onion powder, Jerusalem artichoke flour, wheat stalks, and a sucrose/cellulose control flour. Repeatability relative standard deviations ranged from 2.3 to 7.3%; reproducibility relative standard deviations ranged from 5.0 to 10.8%.

Abstract:
In this study we have evaluated the nutritional analysisand mineral content of two varieties of mushroom species include oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) and Reshii (Ganoderma lucidum). The mushroom varieties were harvested and dried, then taken to the laboratory for proximate and mineral analysis by standard assay methods. For both mushrooms the nutritional composition was analyzed namely pH, moisture content, crude fibre, ash, water soluble protein, total lipid, total soluble sugar, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar and starch content. However ten mineral elements were analyzed: potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, sulfur, cupper, iron, manganese and zinc having no significance difference in values of both mushroom species. Based on the result these mushrooms have high nutrient potentials hence it will serve as a good means of reducing the incidence and high prevalence of malnutrition in Bangladesh since it is a cheap food source that is within the reach of the poor.

Abstract:
The present study is designed to extract and investigate the bioactive phytoconstituents, their secondary metabolites, and antioxidant potential from the leaf extracts of Clematis napaulensis belonging to the family Ranunculaceae. Extract was investigated for its preliminary phytoconstituents by chemical analysis method. Quantification of total phenolic content by Folin-Ciocalteau assay; Total Flavonoid Content and Total Triterpenoid Content (TTC) were quantified by colorimetric method. Antioxidant potential was evaluated in vitro using Phosphomolybdenum assay, Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, Reducing power assay, and the DPPH method. The preliminary phytochemical screening results suggested that a wide variety of pharmacologically active phytoconstituents such as phenolic compounds, alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, triterpenoids, gums, proteins, and reducing sugars were present whereas non-reducing sugar was absent. The total phenolic content in the methanolic extract was 0.8308 μg/mL of gallic acid equivalent; the total flavonoid content of the plant was 1.3850 μg/mL of quercetin equivalent and the total triterpenoid content was found to be 1.414 μg/mL of oleanolic acid equivalent. In vitro antioxidant studies revealed that Clematis napaulensis possess good antioxidant potential. This is the first report of Clematis napaulensis, the phytochemical screening results suggested that the extract would be a potential alternative also it can be explored to discover and development of new chemical moieties for treating various diseases.

Abstract:
Palm wine plays an important role as an alcoholic beverage in traditional practices. It is important to study the biochemical characteristics and microbiological aspects to understand the fermentation kinetics of palm saps. In the present investigation an elaborate study was carried out to study the fermentation kinetics of coconut palm sap. Total sugar, reducing sugar content and glucose concentration was estimated periodically during fermentation for 16h. Microbial load and invertase assay results were related to the changes in sugar concentration. Initial predominance of lactic acid bacteria was followed by dominance of yeasts. Hydrolysis of non reducing sugar occured at a faster rate between 3-9h of fermentation. During this period, the multiplication of yeasts began and reached its peak at 11h fermentation. Ethanol concentration was around 4.0 and 4.1% at 11h and 13h of fermentation respectively.Int. J. Appl. Sci. Biotechnol. Vol 5(3): 375-381

Abstract:
Assam lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm.], an indigenous lemon cultivar of Assam, is widely cultivated in warm southern slopes of the Himalayas in North-Eastern India. Since this cultivar of lemon is having a prominent trait of bearing fruits in several flushes throughout the year, it is essential to provide sufficient nutrition for obtaining optimum yield with good quality fruits. In the current experiment, a randomized block design having twelve treatments with three replications was followed to find out the response of lemon fruit yield and quality to foliar application of micronutrients during the year 2019. Among all, the treatment ZnSO4 (0.2%) + FeSO4 (0.2%) + Borax (0.2%) + CuSO4 (0.2%) gave the best performance in improving the yield and quality of fruits. The highest number of fruits per plant at the time of harvesting (73), yield per plant (11.5 kg), fruit fresh weight (158 g), fruit length (9.60 cm), fruit diameter (5.80 cm), juice content (152 mL/fruit), TSS (6.40 °B), ascorbic acid (49.10 mg/100g), total sugar (6.30%), reducing sugar (3.90%), non-reducing sugar (2.40%) with lowest titratable acidity(3.13%) were obtained which revealed that the yield and fruit quality of lemon depends on the application of different micronutrients.

Abstract:
Lignocellulosic biomass is the most plentiful matter on the earth. It holds potential to be transformed into value added chemicals like bioethanol, organic acid, bioplastics, enzymes, pigments etc. Lignocellulosic biomass is composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Cellulose is the most prevalent organic matter on the planet and is a key glucose storage type. The fundamental step in the bioconversion of LCB into value-added bioproducts is based on the decomposition of cellulose by cellulase. Various groups of microbes including fungi and bacteria are known for their ability to produce cellulase. Although fungi have the most efficient cellulase activity, bacterial cellulase is gaining popularity because of its higher growth rate, better specific activity, stability and mass transfer. Therefore, identification of a novel and better bacterial strain with higher cellulase productivity and enhanced activity could be a breakthrough in the utilization of lignocellulosic biomass for various applications. In this study, cellulase producing bacteria were screened and isolated from soil sample. They were stained and qualitatively analysed for their cellulolytic activity using Congo-red staining. The bacteria showing maximum clear zone was used for further work. Its growth curve was analysed and its enzymatic activity was measured quantitatively using different assays. It was observed that maximum cell biomass was produced after 16 hours of incubation whereas maximum enzymatic activity of 0.4 IU/mL was observed after 14 hours of incubation.

Abstract:
Abstract Biofuel production needs to be more efficient than its current status to increase its competitiveness. The multistep biofuel production is consisted of processes on biomass preprocessing and bioconversion stages. As a crucial parameter, biomass particle size has significant effects on both stages. It is essential to have an insightful understanding of the effects of particle size on sugar yield. Although numerous studies have been performed to meet this objective, there is no commonly accepted guideline on how to select particle size. One possible reason for this gap is the effects of particle size vary when different biomass pretreatment methods are employed. In this study, an assessment on the relationship between particle size and sugar yield was performed for four pretreatment methods. Three particle sizes (1, 4, and 8 mm) of corn stover and switchgrass biomass were used in supercritical CO2, dilute acid (H2SO4), dilute alkaline (Na2CO3), and metal oxide (MgO) pretreatments. Biomass compositional analyses were conducted before and after each pretreatment. Pretreatment solid recovery and sugar recovery rates were calculated. Enzymatic hydrolysis sugar yield and efficiency were used to evaluate the performance of hydrolysis and total sugar yield was used to interpret how much sugar a unit dry weight of biomass (before pretreatment) can yield through pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis combined. It was found that particle size was a weak indicator of enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. There was little value in reducing particle size below 8 mm in order to overcome the resistance imposed by biomass structure on cellulose and xylan hydrolysis.

Abstract:
Abstract With the ever increasing need for Nigeria to incorporate the local industries in the oil and gas sector, to reduce the total production cost of a barrel of oil and reduce the need of depending on foreign products used in oil and gas processes. This has mandated for local materials to be tested as an alternative to some imported products used in oil and gas production processes. This research work is focused on determining the rheological behavior of drilling mud using foreign mica and sugar cane fibre as loss circulation materials. Water based muds were formulated from sugarcane fibre that is locally sourced, and the conventionally used foreign Mica. Laboratory tests were carried out on the different muds formulated and their rheological properties (yield stress, shear stress, plastic viscosity and shear rate are evaluated). The concentration of the LCM were varied, the expected outcome of the research work aims at lowering the total drilling cost by reducing the importation of foreign polymer which promotes the development of local content in the oil and gas industry. The research compares the rheology and filtration results of mud samples and the effects of varying the concentration (1g, 3g, and 5g) of both foreign fibre (Mica) and sugarcane fibre, determining the changes in their rheological properties. The total volume of each mud sample is equivalent to 350ml which represent one barrel (42gal) in the lab. From the result, at concentration of 3g, the sugarcane fibre mud has a better rheology than the Mica mud, but at a concentration above 5g, Mica mud shows a better yield point values than sugarcane fibre mud, that is, as the concentration of sugarcane fibre is increased, the rheological properties of the mud increased, till the concentration of 5g and above is attained in a 350ml lab barrel. The viscosity, filtrates and filter cake thickness of the drilling fluid produced from the sugarcane fibre were almost at par with that of foreign based Mica. It's recommended that the sugarcane fibre should be considered as an alternative to Mica as a loss circulation material, with more research on the oil based mud with sugar cane fibre as loss circulation materials.

Abstract:
Green forages are rich and cheapest source of carbohydrates, protein, vitamins and minerals for dairy animals. To meet out the needs of the ever increasing livestock population the production as well productivity of fodder is to be increased. Maize crop has an important place in the food grain basket of our country and is the third most important versatile food grain crop due to its importance in food, feed, specialty corn, starch etc. In this experiment, twelve inbred lines were crossed with each of five testers in a line×tester design to evaluate combining ability and heterosis to identify promising hybrids of green cob and baby corn for fodder purpose with various characters like, 50% tasseling, 50% silking, 75% dry husk, grain yield, no. and weight of green ears, green fodder yield, dry weight, pericarp thickness and various quality parameters. The resulting F1s along with three checks and seventeen parents were evaluated in two environments during kharif 2010 and rabi 2010-11. Crosses excelled their perspective parents in performance for most of the traits studied. BQPM-2 among the parental lines and BAUIM-2 among the testers were identified as the best general combiners for grain yield and green fodder yield. Whereas among the hybrids, BAUIM-4×HKI-163 and BQPM-2×HKI-163 were identified as potential cross combinations for grain yield and green fodder yield. However for quality parameters, BQPM-2×BAUIM-2 exhibited the highest magnitude of economic heterosis for calcium, crude fibre, dry ash and reducing sugar contents while for iron and phosphorus contents, BAUIM-4×HKI 163 exhibited the most desirable value of heterosis. So the crosses (BAUIM-4×HKI 163) and (BQPM-2×BAUIM-2) can be utilized for developing high yielding hybrid varieties as well as for exploiting hybrid vigor. While for baby corn as feed for animals, several quality parameters like moisture, calcium, iron, phosphorus, total soluble sugars, crude fibre and dry ash contents) baby corn yield were studied. The inbred line BAUIM-4 followed by BQPM-2 was a good general combiner for all the quality traits and baby corn yield. Single cross BQPM-2 × BAUIM-2 had positive significant specific combining ability effects for all the quality traits and baby corn yield
