The Relationship

Engineering characterization which are useful for "temperate" zone soils usually fail to predict the field performance of bauxitic soils, because the index tests upon which the characterization are based are not always reproducible for bauxitic soils. Fifteen (15) bauxitic soil of undisturbed and disturbed samples from 3 distinct sites in Kuantan, all derived from basalt parent rock but representing various stages of weathering were subjected to engineering and mineralogic tests. Values for cohesion and friction angles are evaluated. Soils from Semambu has the highest moisture content of 33.27%, the cohesion value is however lower compared to Bukit Goh which has moisture content of 21.74%. Study are further done to discover the relationship with cohesion and friction angles. Thus, by measuring the cohesion and friction angle can evaluate the performance of bauxite shear strength.

Polygalacturonase Production

Polygalacturonases represent an important member of pectinases group of enzymes with immense industrial applications. The activity of exo-polygalacturonase produced by Aspergillus niger was studied in solid state fermentation (SSF) using Nephrolepis biserrata leaves as substrate. Central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize four significant variables resulted from the screening process that has been initially analyzed for the production of exo-polygalacturonase which are incubation time, temperature, concentration of pectin and moisture content. The optimum exo-polygalacturonase production obtained was 54.64 U/g at 120 hours of incubation time, temperature at 340C, 5.0 g/L of pectin concentration and 75.26% of moisture content. For partial characterization of exo-polygalacturonase, the optimum temperature and pH were obtained at 50°C and pH 4.0, respectively. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that molecular weight of exo-polygalacturonase were 35 and 71 kDa. This study has revealed a significant production of exo-polygalacturonase by A. niger under SSF using cheap and easily available substrate and thus could found immense potential application in industrial sectors and biotechnology

Summary An inverse identification method for characterization of wood sorptive properties is presented. The method relies on a computer simulation of a real experiment, in our case a desorption experiment, where spruce heartwood samples were dried from 27% to 8% moisture content. Three samples, distinguished by the respective moisture flow pattern through the specimen, were investigated. A computer aided material characterization using the so-called inverse problem identification method was performed on the measurements. The solution of the specified inverse problem enabled us to estimate the moisture diffusion coefficients of wood and to determine the moisture content field in the sample simultaneously. The method is first verified on two simple cases of uniaxial moisture flow, and then is used to characterize the diffusion coefficients on a biaxial moisture flow sample. In the latter case some salient features of the proposed method are exhibited.

Data for 59 lactobacilli isolated from Canadian Cheddar cheese and 9 named species, previously characterized on the basis of morphological, cultural, and biochemical features, were analyzed by the Adansonian numerical methods of Sneath. Results confirmed the validity of groups, originally designated as Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus brevis, and Lactobacillus fermenti types. The computer technique provided numerical estimates of strain and group relationships, emphasizing the extreme heterogeneity of the groups.
