Focuses on different cereals for nutritive and functional
characteristics Explores mechanical, biological, thermal and
non-thermal processing treatments of cereals Presents impact of
different treatments on biological and techno-functional properties
of cereals Discusses characteristics of the processed products
Covers diverse biological and functional features of nutri-cereals
to dictate their potential as functional ingredients in value added
products Discusses the nutraceutical potential of ten cereals:
sorghum, pearl millet, finger millet, foxtail millet, barnyard
millet, kodo millet, little millet, proso millet, black wheat and
Amaranthus. Explains how these grains are ideal ingredients for
gluten free food formulations with enhanced bio- and techno-
functional characteristics
Blast is an important foliar disease that infects the majority of
cereal crops like rice, finger millet, pearl millet, foxtail millet
and wheat, and thus resulting in a huge economic impact. The
pathogen is responsible for causing epidemics in many crops and
commonly shifts to new hosts. Magnaporthe spp. is the most
prominent cause of blast disease on a broad host range of grasses
including rice as well as other species of poaceae family. To date,
137 members of Poaceae hosting this fungus have been described in
Fungal Databases. This book provides information on all blast
diseases of different cereal crops. The pathogen evolves quickly
due to its high variability, and thus can quickly adapt to new
cultivars and cause an epidemic in a given crop. Some of the topics
covered here include historical perspectives, pathogen evolution,
host range shift, cross-infectivity, and pathogen isolation, use of
chemicals fungicides, genetics and genomics, and management of
blast disease in different cereal crops with adoption of suitable
methodologies.In the past two decades there have been significant
developments in genomics and proteomics approaches and there has
been substantial and rapid progress in the cloning and mapping of R
genes for blast resistance, as well as in comparative genomics
analysis for resolving delineation of Magnaporthe species that
infect both cereals and grass species. Blast disease resistance
follows a typical gene-for-gene hypothesis. Identification of new
Avr genes and effector molecules from Magnaporthe spp. can be
useful to understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the fast
evolution of different strains of this fungal genus. Advances in
these areas may help to reduce the occurrence of blast disease by
the identification of potential R genes for effective deployment.
Additionally, this book highlights the importance of blast disease
that infects different cereal hosts in the context of climate
change, and genomics approaches that may potentially help in
understanding and applying new concepts and technologies that can
make real impact in sustainable management of blast disease in
different cereal crops.

Enzymes Beyond Traditional Applications in Dairy Science and
Technology explores the applications of enzymes in dairy science
and technology, including indigenous milk enzymes, actions of
enzymes on milk proteins, lactose for value addition, peroxide,
measuring analyte, assessing milk quality, and cleaning the milk
plant. This latest volume in the Foundations and Frontiers of
Biocatalysis series is a valuable resource for dairy scientists and
those studying dairy science processing.
The assurance of the quality and the reliability of the
pharmaceutical products together with their careful control are a
moral obligation arising from the humanism towards the
sick.Consequently the manufacture and the control of drugs is a
very responsible task and needs substantial knowledge of
science.Drug analysis is carried by analytical methods which
further classified as Chemical and Instrumental Analytical methods.
Although chemical methods are cheap, but instrumental methods are
very fast and accurate.A search of literature reveals that there
are very few methods available for the determination of Ofloxacin
in combination with Ornidazole. Various methods reported are
basically HPLC/RP-HPLC etc. These methods are very expensive and
cannot be afforded by small scale industries.In the present study
we attempted to develop a simple, rapid, economical and selective
method for the estimation of Ofloxacin and Ornidazole in combined
dosage tablet form using U.V.-Vis. Spectrophotometer.The
spectrophotometric estimation of Ornidazole and Ofloxacin was
statistically evaluated and was found to be very accurate. proposed
method can be employed for routine analysis in Quality Control.
The rising cost of fuel oil compelled the industry to search for
alternative fuels and biomass and hence the production of
fermentable sugars from renewable lignocellulosic waste materials,
which can be used as feedstock for the production of biofuel.
Ethanol is a high octane, water free alcohol produced from
renewable resources like wheat straw, rice husk, corn, wood and
other biomaterials. Ethanol is most often blended with gasoline -
usually as a 10 per cent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol.
Ethanol blended fuels like gasohol, act as natural antifreeze, and
appear to burn more efficiently in combustion engines. As well,
ethanol is used commercially in producing food grade vinegar, food
extracts, pharmaceutical products. In the last decade, most
research has tended to focus on developing an economical and
ecofriendly ethanol production process. Much emphasis is being
given to the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass and
other forms of agricultural and forestry residues
