Nutritional Quality of Osmotically Dehydrated Catfish (Clarias garipinus) and Beef as Influenced by Sodium Chloride Concentration
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 2
In this work, the influence of sodium chloride (solute) concentration on the nutritional quality of osmotically dehydrated Catfish and beef were evaluated, using vitamin C as quality marker. Results show that at 95% confidence interval, NaCl concentrations play significant role in the stability of vitamin C in both catfish muscle and beef during osmotic dehydration. The vitamin C value o...

Osmotic Dehydration Kinetics of Catfish (Clarias garipinus) Muscles in Sodium Chloride Solution
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 2
The effect of sodium chloride (solute) concentration and immersion time on weight reduction (WR), water loss (WL), solid gain (SG), mass shrinkage ratio (SR) and dehydration efficiency index (EI) on Catfish during osmotic dehydration were studied. Results show that, at 95% confidence level, all the above kinetic parameters were significantly affected by both immersion time and solute con...

Ultravist Studies on the Histological Patterns of the Kidney of Adult Wistar Rats
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 2
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of ultravist on the histological patterns of the kidney of the Wistar rat. Thirty (30) Wister rats weighing between 182-212kg/BW were divided into three groups of ten (10) animals each. Group A served as the control group, while group B and C served as experimental groups receiving low and high dosage of ultravist (iopromide) which is the R...

Systematic Values of Foliar Anatomical Features in some Members of Nigerian Clusiaceae
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 1
Foliar epidermal features of four Nigerian species of the family Clusiaceae were studied. This was with a view to exploiting their systematic and taxonomic values to aid their taxonomy. Representatives of the four species were obtained from various parts in Southern Nigeria and passed through standard treatments to make permanent anatomical slides for the study by light microscopy (LM). ...

Demographic Structures of Gelada (Theropithecus gelada) in Guassa Community Protected Area, Ethiopia
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 1
In geladas, sociality and population structure are unusual because they establish highly differentiated bonds with other group members. Such bonds are particularly pronounced among female geladas, with female philopatry and male dispersal. In the present study, gelada band size and population structures varied between wet and dry seasons. The mean number of females per harem varied from ...

Isolation, Identification and Partial Characterization of Protease Producing Bacteria that Exhibiting Remarkable Dehairing Capabilities
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 15 Issue: 1
A novel protease producing bacterium was isolated from the natural source. Gram staining & spore staining showed that the organism is gram positive and forms spore during adverse condition in the growth medium. After various tests it was suggested and the features agreed with the description of Bacillus subtilis in Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology [20]. It was ...

Influence of Colchicine Treatments on Character Expression and Yield Traits in Cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata L. Walp)
Published In: GJSFR Part: C:Biological Science Volume: 14 Issue: 5
Mutagenesis has been exploited to enhance genetic variability in cowpea (Vigna unquiculata L. Walp.); an important legume in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Mutation is regarded to be a shortcut breeding technique, which has produced new and high yielding varieties through heritable changes in genetic constitution of characters in some leguminous crops. Effects of 0.1%...
