A review on common vegetables and legumes as promising plant-based natural coagulants in water clarification
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of 14 plant-based natural coagulants categorized as common vegetables and legumes is presented in this paper, where the two main coagulation mechanisms leading to the observed co-agulation activities are postulated to be charge neutralization and bridging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water-retention additives increase plant available water in green roof substrates
TL;DR: Water-retention additives have the potential to increase substrate water availability leading to greater plant growth and survival, expanding the range of plant species suitable for green roofs as mentioned in this paper, but the effects of additives on PAW differed between plant species, with additives increasing PAW in both substrates for wheat but only in roof-tile for lupins.

The Status and Distribution of Freshwater Biodiversity in Central Africa
TL;DR: A regional assessment of the status and distribution of 1,395 taxa of freshwater fishes, molluscs, odonates, crabs, and selected families of aquatic plants from across western Africa was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overcoming chronic malnutrition in a future warming world: the key importance of mungbean and vegetable soybean
TL;DR: Hardy, multipurpose legumes that can be used as vegetables or grains by smallholders or large enterprises and with multiple manufacturing uses have a vital role to play in overcoming growing malnutrition in South Asia, Africa, and the Pacific.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of Bambara Groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc) milk as a probiotic beverage—A Review
TL;DR: The nutritional profile of BGNM is high enough to sustain the growth of probiotics, and can also be fermented with lactic acid bacteria to make a probiotic beverage that not only increase the economic value of the nutritious legume but also help in addressing malnutrition.

Determination of total and speciated arsenicin rice by ion chromatography and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for arsenic speciation analysis in rice was presented using ion chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and several procedures for the extraction of arsenic species from rice were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutritional quality of legumes, and their role in cardiometabolic risk prevention: a review.
TL;DR: The nutritional quality of legumes and their potential contribution in cardiometabolic risk prevention are provided and their mitigating effects and the mechanism of their action are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylated arsenic species in rice: geographical variation, origin, and uptake mechanisms.
TL;DR: Although there is significant genotypic variation in grain As speciation, the regional variations are primarily attributed to environmental factors and emerging evidence also indicates that methylated As species in rice are derived from the soil, while rice plants lack the As methylation ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic in rice: II. Arsenic speciation in USA grain and implications for human health.
TL;DR: It is suggested that methylation of As occurs within rice and that genetic differences lead to the two rice types, which are likely to be less of a health risk than the Inorganic As rice type and, on this basis, rice from the U.S. may be safer than rice from Asia and Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of soaking whole cereal and legume seeds on iron, zinc and phytate contents
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of soaking whole cereals (maize, millet, rice, sorghum) and legume seeds (mung bean, cowpea, soybean) on iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and phytate (Phy) contents were investigated.
