Probiotics in Functional Foods: Survival Assessment and Approaches for Improved Viability

Nowadays, food is no longer just for nutrition. Consumers are more demanding and expect to get health benefits from their daily meals. Various areas of the food industry are in great demand of functional chemicals to enhance the taste and nutritional value of their products. Probiotic bacteria have already been part of the human’s routine for good gut microbiota maintenance in terms of pharmaceutical products. Their incorporation in food however is a challenging task that offers great opportunities but has limitations as well. Specifically, the purpose of this review is to emphasize the importance of probiotics in food, to assess their survival through gastrointestinal tract, and to highlight the recent advances in approaches for their improved viability.

Optimization of Energy in Smart Farms Using a Genetic Algorithm

The need for energy in the agriculture field is increasing as a result of increasing the productivity of these fields. The appearance of smart grid and IoT (internet of objects) enabled farmers to control, manage, and optimize the energy consumption. Agriculture will continue to rely on energy to increase its productivity in line with increasing population and great demand. In this chapter, the authors present an integrated model between SmartFarms, the smart-grid, and optimization methods. In this way, smart forms can participate actively and benefit from the energy market. In this chapter, they consider the electrical energy that is directly used in activities ranging from field processes such as irrigation of land. Energy is also indirectly consumed in synthetic additives notably fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. In addition, the authors can consider the electrical energy, which is used for powering some agricultural machines.

9 Anodic Arylation Reactions

The arylation of organic compounds is a tremendously important tool in organic synthesis, since substituted (het)arenes are essential moieties in many applications ranging from organic intermediates to natural products, pharmaceuticals, and materials. Therefore, an effective, sustainable, and economic synthetic accesses to such compounds is of great demand. This chapter covers the arylation of carbon and heteroatom compounds via an electrooxidative pathway. Direct dehydrogenative methods without the application of a metal catalyst as well as constant-current electrolyses are emphasized. The electrochemical synthesis of biaryl compounds, arylalkanes and arylalkenes, as well as arylated nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur compounds are described in detail. Additionally, the synthesis of heterocycles through anodic arylation reactions is discussed.

Productive Manipulation as an Element of University Advertising Discourse: Pragma-Axiological Analysis

The article is devoted to the pragma-axiological and partial psycholinguistic analysis of advertising videos of US universities in order to identify the productive manipulative potential of modern advertising university discourse. The relevance of the study is due to both extralinguistically — the great demand for quality education in the modern world, and linguistically — by the study of the processes of productive speech manipulation as one of the fundamental components of quality communication. The novelty of the research is seen in a qualitatively new pragma-axiological approach to the study of discourse and the value component of the suggestive influence exerted by this discourse. The author’s method of conducting pragma-axiological and partial psycholinguistic analysis, used to identify the pragma-axiological charge of the discursive space and its manipulative potential is presented in the article. Particular attention is paid to the interdependence of the addressee’s value-evaluative attitudes, the lexical units-verbalizers of these attitudes, their pragma-axiological charge and the suggestive (productive manipulative) impact provided. The results of the frequency analysis of part-of-speech indicators and the coefficients of discourse emotivity that depend on them are presented. The results, gained in the framework of the pragma-axiological analysis, are confirmed by the coefficients of the emotiveness of the discourse under study, obtained in the course of a partial psycholinguistic analysis. The key axiological components of productive speech manipulation in the modern advertising university discourse of US universities are presented.

Teknologi Internet Of Things (IoT) dalam Penyemprotan Insektisida Aglonema pada Greenhouse

Aglonema is a plant that is widely cultivated by ornamental plant lovers, because it has various species with varied and beautiful leaf patterns. Aglonema cultivation can be a business opportunity in agriculture because aglonema plants are in great demand but also because the prices offered vary from hundreds of thousands to millions of rupiah. Aglonema plant care is quite easy and simple. However, the wrong aglonema plant care such as irregular watering, excessive fertilizer application, and the wrong plant placement can make plants grow less optimally or even die. Greenhouse is a building that was formed to avoid and treat plants against various kinds of weather. Weather is the state of the atmosphere in a place at a certain time related to air temperature, sunlight, wind, rain and other air conditions. Thus, the types of plants that are not in accordance with the local climate, such as ornamental plants, vegetables and fruit, which have high economic value but are difficult to cultivate in outdoor areas, can be cultivated through climate control in the greenhouse. Various benefits such as controlling air temperature, adjusting humidity levels, to the interval between watering times can be adjusted easily. Internet of things (IoT) is a concept or program where an object has the ability to transmit or transmit data over a network without using the help of computer and human devices. With this IoT, spraying insecticides at the Greehouse for aglonema plants can be done automatically

New approaches in the process of crystallization of sucrose in the production of sweets with fondant bodies

Конфеты на основе помадных корпусов пользуются большим спросом у населения. Расширение ассортимента конфет и совершенствование технологии является актуальной проблемой. Актуальными остаются вопросы по расширению ассортимента популярных конфет с сохранением качества не только на производстве, но и при хранении изучение процессов, протекающих при хранении конфет с помадными корпусами, остаются в фокусе научных интересов исследователей. Поставленные задачи наиболее актуальны в производстве конфет на основе помадных корпусов - энергетически неустойчивых систем, имеющих высокую концентрацию сахарозы (более 80 %), простой химический состав, что является причиной быстрой потери потребительских свойств в процессе хранения. Решение указанных проблем возможно за счет введения в рецептуру продуктов переработки амаранта Amaranthus cruentus. Частицы порошка шрота амаранта, являясь влагоудерживающими компонентами, играют также роль компонентов кристаллизации сахарозы в высокопересыщенных растворах. Sweets based on fondant bodies are in great demand among the population. Expanding the assortment of sweets and improving technology is an urgent problem. Questions on expanding the assortment of popular sweets while maintaining quality not only in production, but during storage remain topical. The study of the processes occurring during the storage of sweets with fondant bodies remains in the focus of the scientific interests of researchers. The tasks set are most relevant in the production of sweets based on fondant bodies - energetically unstable systems with a high concentration of sucrose (more than 80 %), a simple chemical composition, which is the reason for the rapid loss of consumer properties during storage. The solution of these problems is possible due to the introduction of Amaranthus cruentus amaranth processed products into the formulation. Particles of amaranth meal powder, being water-retaining components, also play the role of components of crystallization of sucrose in highly supersaturated solutions.
