Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Productivity results are supported by information obtained about the developmental rates of the two species on these media-in general, developmental rate was much slower on those media showing the lowest productivity, and it is suggested that T. castaneum may require greater amounts of leucine, alanine, and aspartic acid than T. confusum.

TL;DR: The authors investigated the accumulation of selenium (Se) in protein fractions of albumin, globulin, prolamin and glutelin extracted from Se-enriched brown rice and the molecular weight distribution of Se-containing proteins.

TL;DR: Protein content of brown rice provided a better indication of milled rice protein content than histological examination of individual grains because protein content varied among grains.
Abstract: The protein of brown rice became more evenly distributed as protein content increased. Kjeldahl protein content of brown rice provided a better indication of milled rice protein content than histological examination of individual grains because protein content varied among grains. The increase in protein content was mainly due to an increase in the number of protein bodies. Screening 10 493 varieties from the world rice collection for lysine content by dye-binding capacity showed that lysine content of rice protein varied only by at most 0.5 % point at any protein level. A negative correlation between the lysine content of protein and protein content of brown and milled rice was observed only in samples with protein below 10%. As protein content increased water-soluble nitrogen also increased as a percentage of brown rice.

TL;DR: The dynamics of available Cu, Zn, and Mn contents in paddy soil in two consecutive years indicated sepiolite had negligible effects on the bioavailability of trace metals.
Abstract: The long-term stability of immobilization effect of immobilization agents was critical to the remediation practices. Two years consecutive in situ field-scale demonstration was conducted in Hunan province, with the purpose to certify the long-term stability of immobilization effect of sepiolite on Cd contaminants in paddy soil in the aspect of soil extraction and plant uptake. Natural sepiolite was selected as immobilization, and rice was the model plant. The immobilization effect of sepiolite on Cd contaminants in paddy soil was significant in the first year and remained at the second year. The Cd content of brown rice, 0.025 M HCl extractable Cd content and exchangeable Cd content of paddy soil decreased remarkably. The application of sepiolite led to an obvious increase in pH value of paddy soil and carbonate bounded fraction of Cd in soil. The immobilization effect was maintained even at the second year without any additional amendments. The results indicated the interaction of sepiolite and cadmium was a long-term process. The additional sepiolite at the second year had no significant lift effect on immobilization so that it was unnecessary to add sepiolite every year based on the immobilization effect and operation cost. The dynamics of available Cu, Zn, and Mn contents in paddy soil in two consecutive years indicated sepiolite had negligible effects on the bioavailability of trace metals. The result of the current research confirmed the stability of immobilization effect of sepiolite.
