Name of Student: Bal Krishna Maharjan Course: Food Microbiology 17/FA 1. Describe the processing method of the semidry sausages? Answer: Semidry sausages can be easily distinguished by its tangy flavor produced by lactic acid fermentation and other fermentation products. It is a ready to eat sausage. The semidry sausages have following distinguished characters: PH: ranges from 4.6-5.2, Percentage of lactic acid: 0.5-1.3%, Moisture: 45-50%, Moisture protein ratio (MPR) : > 2.3:1 but < 3.7:1, Moisture

This experiment is an attempt to investigate the amount of water potential across root storage plant species. The root storage plant species that shall be used are the carrot and the potato and the method that shall be used is known as Chardakov’s method. Water potential is the tendency of water to enter or leave a cell. Water moves from an area or region of low water potential to an area of high water potential. It is important to note that the highest water potential is 0(the water potential

In the mid-1800s, Ireland was a nation which depended on agriculture. The Irish were among the poorest people in the world, relying on crops to feed their families. The Great Famine, or An Gorta Mór, commenced with the potato failure in 1845. It lasted for six years and caused the deaths of over one million men, women and children. It also led to a huge increase in emigration with two million people fleeing the country in the search of both food and a life free from corruption. The Great Famine was

challenge was… The challenge was to make, with your team, a 30 inch cantilever beam with 16 plastic straw, 5 of the straw wrappers, and 15 centimeters of tape. Each team was allowed to use scissors and a hole punch to put together the straws. Then, Mr. Milhous placed the beam 24 inches off the table 6 inches on the table. After that, he moved a marshmallow on the cantilever beam until the beam could no longer support the marshmallow. The team points were determined by measuring the distance of the

In particular Chris Mccandless should be supported for he had things happen to him that led up to the point where he wanted to go into the wild to get away from his old life and created a new one for himself to have more opportunities. Others may think he shouldn’t be supported just because he some bad flaws he had and also that he just left his sister who he actually got along with, but here are some reasons that are logical and reasonable to why Chris Mccandless should be supported. One of the

RESULTS AND DISSCUSSION Morphological description of M. purpureus Monascus purpureus (Went) is a homothallic fungus belongs to the group of Ascomycetes (family Monascaceae). Growth on potato dextrose agar medium (PDA), mycelium is white in the early stage then rapidly changes to a rich pink with soluble pigment diffuse in medium (A). Pedicellate ascomata with ascospores (B &C). Monascus purpureus produced spherical ascospores of 5 microns in diameter (D) as shown in fig.1. Spectral analysis of M

fungus called phytophthora infestans drifted over the fields of Ireland. (The History Place 1) Soon after, the fungal spores settled on potato plant leaves, which fermented, giving the fungus what it needed to live. (The History Place 1) The fungus soon spread to all the potatoes in Ireland, causing them to become black and rotted. (The History Place 1) As the potato blight in Ireland continued through the years, the Irish began the long journey to America in hopes to begin a new life away from the

Biology Design Practical Joshua Edwards What are effects of the volume of a potato and the amount of weight it loses when placed in salt solution? Introduction This design practical uses a potato’s surface area to volume ratio to see what affects it has on osmosis in different concentrations. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a cell membrane into an area of a higher solute concentration. The movement goes the way of the solvent with more solute because the lower solute concentration

Higher Concentration of Sucrose Lowers the Mass of a Potato Independent Variable: Concentration of Sucrose used Dependent Variable: Mass of each Potato after Experiment Constant: Size of Potato being used at room temperature Introduction We learned about hypertonic and hypotonic environments before this lab as well as what takes place during osmosis. Do potatoes loose or gain mass when soaked in specific solutions such as sugar or salts? Sugar is a large molecule and has low permeability

“...The grass you are standing on, my dear little ones, is made of a new kind of soft minty sugar that I’ve just invented! I call it swudge! Try a blade! Please do! It’s delectable!”... “Isn’t it wonderful!” whispered Charlie. “Hasn’t it got a wonderful taste, Grandpa?” “I could eat the whole field!” said Grandpa Joe, grinning with delight. “I could go around on all fours like a cow and eat every blade of grass in the field!” ~ Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Highlight the example

most noticeably awful starvations of present day history. For a long time, Irish workers had relied on upon potatoes as virtu-partner their sole wellspring of sustenance. From 1845 to 1848, a plant growth destroyed about the greater part of Ireland's potato crop. Out of a populace of 8 million, around a million individuals kicked the bucket from starvation and ailment throughout the following few years.During the starvation years, around a million and a half individuals fled from Ireland. Most went to

major Homefront complication within WWI. In Germany, potatoes were the main source of food which became problematic in 1916, as a decrease in temperature before the harvest, coinciding with the seizing of one million horses by the army caused the potato crops to become inedible; as the farm equipment needed was unusable, as farming horses were seized, and unsuitable weather prevailed. Furthermore, German trade was halted by the British Naval Blockade, preventing the imperative importation of goods

Ikenna Kuba Mrs. Lucas IB Biology HL 6 February, 2017 Deciphering The Osmolarity(concentration of a solution) of a Potato Cell including the concept of Water Balance. Investigation Question Determine the osmolarity of a potato? Background In the two day lab performed in class, we worked with a potato commonly known as White Potato but its scientific name is “Solanum tuberosum”(New World Encyclopedia, 2017). We can tell it is White potato and not Sweet potato due to the color of the potato, Sweet potato

Catalase Experiment Can hydrogen peroxide be broken down by catalyst other than those found in a living system? Independent and Dependent Variables Independent Variable: The independent variable is the chicken liver and the potato. Dependent Variable: The dependent variable is what I will be measuring which is how much peroxide I will use for each individual experiment. I will also need to measure the temperature of the peroxide during/after the experiment and the pH balance. Purpose “What was

sizes and lengths potato cylinders and applying them to different concentrations of sucrose(0%, 10%, 20%, 40%) in small beakers then measuring the change in mass of the potato cylinders afterwards. Maintaining all variables unchanged such as pH, same size, and a constant temperature. time taken for all potato cylinders will be 30 minutes. Hypothesis If the potato cylinders were put in sucrose concentration where the water potential is higher than the water potential that of the potato itself that would

goals and central questions that has to do with the project is mostly trying to determine the isotonic concentration of the salt in potato roots and the use of the ideal soil salt conditions for the potato plant growth. In part 2, we had to test the enzyme activity that is in the was involved in the potato, so we can also determine the ideal soil pH conditions for the potato plant growth. In part 3, we were able to test absorb the leaf pigment at various wavelengths that determine the optimum light absorption
