Farmers across the country sell their onions without grading them, which results in post-harvest losses during packing and transporting. As a result, modern technologies like engine-operated grading systems are essential. So, the design and development of an onion grading machine was undertaken at Asella Agricultural Engineering Research Center (AAERC). The physical and mechanical properties of the selected onion bulb variety were considered during the design. The developed grader consists of the mainframe, feeding hopper, grading unit, outlets, power source, and power transmission system. The cost of the grader was estimated to be 20,880.99 ETB and believed that it is simple in design, easy in operation, and found to be suitable for small and medium-scale farmers.","PeriodicalId":7550,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Food Science and Technology","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79515530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is alarming that firewood is still frequently utilized as the main source of energy for cooking in many nations, especially those that see a decline in forest cover. For the carbonization of biomass waste, a drum-type carbonizer adaptation was created. The potential for obtaining a biomass carbonization process is the subject of this research. Various agricultural waste products (such as sawdust, coffee husks, peanut shells, and millet stalks) have been heated up in a device called a carbonizer. These two residues’ biomass carbonization yields were calculated and found to be 37.5% and 60.98%, respectively, for sawdust and coffee husk.","PeriodicalId":7550,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Food Science and Technology","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91187459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antimicrobial and medicinal properties was examined through phytochemical screening of the plants constituents using standard qualitative methods and conducting bioassay on target bacteria of medical importance such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using the agar well diffusion method. The screening revealed that tannins, saponins and alkaloids is highly detected followed by flavonoids that is moderately detected whereas phlobatannins, phenol and volatile oils are present in low amount. The result shows that the leaf extract was active against S. aureus, K. pneumonia, S. typhi, E. coli and P. aeruginosa measuring clear zones of inhibition 26.0mm, 22.0mm, 20.0mm, 18.0mm and 18.0mm respectively. Hence, the extracts exhibit strong antibacterial activity and could be used as a preventive and curative measures to common diseases related to the test organisms.","PeriodicalId":7550,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Food Science and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89755717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bambara groundnut was submerged in sterile water, inoculated with the starter culture containing 106 CFU/mL, and allowed to stand for 3 days. Bambara milk was produced by wet-milling the nut and the resulting paste cooked on medium heat for 20 min and strained with cheesecloth to remove the particles. Milk from non-inoculated Bambara nut and cow milk was used as positive and negative controls for sensory characteristics and nutritional comparison. The nutritional and sensory profile was compared to meet WHO recommended daily intake (RDA) with cow milk. Proximate composition of the samples ranged from 20.80 - 19.70, 57.20 - 52.25, 6.80 - 8.79% and 368.10 - 425.10 Kcal/100g for protein, carbohydrate, fat and energy, respectively. Results show that protein content of the fermented Bambara milk (19.70) was higher than cow milk (3.4) while fat content (8.79) was higher compared to cow milk (3.6 g/100g). Amino acids content ranged from 3.90 - 5.00, 9.00 - 14.20, 5.62 - 6.80, 0.6 – 0.92, 17.20 – 19.50, 3.35 – 3.80, 2.50 – 3.00, 3.80 – 4.15, 7.00 – 8.00, 2.90 – 4.50, 2.80 – 3.20, 4.80 – 5.10, 3.80 – 4.50, 2.60 – 3.80, 2.60 – 4.00, 3.50 – 3.90 and 4.10 – 4.85 for alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, cystine, glutamic acid, histidine, isoluecine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tyrosine and valine, respectively. In-vitro protein digestibility increased from 70.74 - 89.70%, while anti-nutritional factors decreased from 4.72 – 2.08, 870.30 – 383.70, 1470.15 – 1023.10 and 1.85 – 0.55 mg/100g for tannin, polyphenol, phytate, oxalate and trypsin inhibition activity, respectively. Intensities of the sensory attributes was assessed based on parameters of appearance, aroma, mouth feel, consistency and overall acceptability using a nine-point Hedonic scale rating, and the results found to compare favorably with cow milk.","PeriodicalId":7550,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Food Science and Technology","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84939641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
