Agricultural intensification is a major driver of wild bee decline. Vineyards may be inhabited by plant and animal species, especially when the inter-row space vegetated with spontaneous vegetation or cover crops. Wild bees depend on floral resources suitable nesting sites which found in vineyard inter-rows viticultural landscapes. Inter-row managed mulching, tillage, and/or herbicide application results habitat degradation applied intensively. Here, we hypothesize that lower management...
The quality characteristics of black tea are routinely assessed before it is purchased, blended and marketed to ensure its value. Although some these can be measured analytically, others need determined as sensory scores following cupping tests conducted by experts. However, most analyses (especially the ones) require high training expertise, time-consuming prone human error. Therefore, in this study, non-destructive spectral sensors were combined with chemometric methods rapidly measure...
Land use at landscape and field scales can increase the diversity abundance of natural enemies for pest control. In this study, we investigated interactions between elements (semi-natural vegetation, olive orchards, vineyards, other agricultural areas) inter-row management (vegetation cover vs. bare soil) in relation to arthropod populations Andalusian vineyards. Arthropods were collected from grapevine foliage 15 vineyards using suction sampling. Landscape structure was analyzed within a...
The volume of slags generated from the steel industry is a source possible resources which constantly increasing. Specifically, in production stainless steel, specific and singular with unique characteristics are obtained, allows considering an approach aimed at their use new recycling ways. This work shows feasibility using slag as substitute for limestone filler manufacture self-compacting concrete. influence different treatments applied to on physical chemical properties was studied. On...
Failure of passive immunity transfer is one the main causes increased susceptibility to infectious agents in newborn kids. To ensure successful immunity, kids need be fed high-quality colostrum, containing an adequate concentration IgG. This work evaluated quality colostrum obtained first 3 days postpartum from Malagueña dairy goats. The IgG was measured using ELISA as a reference method, and it estimated by optical refractometer. Colostrum composition terms fat protein also determined. mean...
This study was carried out using a spectral database consisting of 394 samples fresh total mixed ration (TMR) from dairy farms located at Northern Spain. Cloning sets different size and structure were evaluated for the transfer large TMR obtained on Foss NIRSystems monochromator to 2 portable near-infrared devices: one diode array instrument another based linear variable filters. The cloning matrix that produced best matching between instruments then used library instruments. Once had been...
Cheese quality is affected by seasonal variations. These variations can influence several aspects of cheese, including its flavor, texture, nutritional content, and overall sensory qualities. The aim this study was to assess the performance near-infrared (NIR) instrumentation in terms ability detect Halloumi cheese samples when applying limited sample preparation compared traditional protocols. Therefore, use NIR spectroscopy examined for determination from Cyprus combination with...
A common fraud in the sweet almond industry is presence of bitter almonds commercial batches. The not only causes unpleasant flavours but also problems commercialisation and toxicity for consumers. Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) has been proved to be suitable rapid non-destructive quality evaluation foods as it integrates spectral spatial dimensions. Thus, we aimed study feasibility using an HSI system identify single kernels For this purpose, batches, well different mixtures, were analysed...
Portable handheld near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instruments currently present enormous advantages in terms of size, weight, and robustness. They also provide fast, precise information that can be obtained situ, they represent a viable option for controlling vegetable safety quality during the growth period. The aim this research was to evaluate three portable NIRS situ real-time analysis intact summer squashes. Traditional methods were used analyze 221 squashes, work develop calibration...
Sharjah-Sat-1 is the first CubeSat to be designed and integrated at Sharjah Academy for Astronomy, Space Sciences Technology (SAASST), a research institute under University of (UoS) in United Arab Emirates, with an active collaboration Istanbul Technical Sabanci Turkey.
