The present study was carried out in the department of Food Science, Nutrition and Technology, CSK Himachal Pradesh Agricultural University, Palampur with the objective to explore the physico-chemical characteristics and cooking quality of Kodra (Eleusine coracana L.). The samples of Kodra grains used in the present investigation were procured from local farmers of district Sirmaur of Himachal Pradesh. Kodra grains were assessed for nutritional composition and cooking quality. Results of the study showed that Kodra grains were found to contain valuable nutrients. The physical characteristics revealed the mean length and width of Kodra grain as 1.43 and 1.40 mm, respectively. The average moisture content of Kodra was recorded as 8.52 per cent. Expressed on dry matter basis the value for average ash content was 3.48 per cent and fat content was 3.53 per cent. Kodra was high in protein and also rich in mineral content.

Physical And Chemical

The physical and chemical characteristics of the fruit have immense significance as they ultimately affect the quality of processed productsprepared from them. Over ripening of Sapota (Manilkara zapota) fruits at the post-harvest stage usually results in dramatic decline in quality.In the present study, physico chemical analysis (which includes Weight loss, Colour, Texture, TSS, pH, TA and Ascorbic acid content) ofedible Aloe vera gel coated Sapota fruits packed in LDPE and stored at 15 ± 2? were studied at regular intervals of 5 days i.e., 0th,5th, 10th,15thand 20th days. The dip treatment of Aloe vera gel coating 1:2, 7 minutes had best retained the physico chemical characteristics than the othertreatments performed and was found to be the most effective treatment in maintaining the fruit quality attributes along with the shelf lifeextension of about 20 days.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijasbt.v3i1.11703 Int J Appl Sci Biotechnol, Vol. 3(1): 20-25

This study investigates the level of wastewater pollution by analyzing its chemical characteristics at five wastewater collectors. Samples are collected before they discharge into the Danube during a monitoring campaign of two weeks. Organic and inorganic compounds, heavy metals, and biogenic compounds have been analyzed using potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods. Experimental results show that the quality of wastewater varies from site to site and it greatly depends on the origin of the wastewater. Correlation analysis was used in order to identify possible relationships between concentrations of various analyzed parameters, which could be used in selecting the appropriate method for wastewater treatment to be implemented at wastewater plants.
