Assessing the microbiota biodiversity of fermented food products, such as bacterial and fungal diversity, can inform on the nutritional value of such products as well as assessing the safety for consumption. Understanding the bacterial or fungal composition of such products is important to ensure food safety and prevent possible contamination with foodborne pathogens which may have serious public health implications. For example, the U.S Food and Drug Administration (2014) tested samples of cheeses prepared using unpasteurized milks and identified the presence of Listeria monocytogenes and Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli.
Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry (PHC), Volume 35 is the latest in this annual review series that contains both highlights of the previous year's literature on heterocyclic chemistry and articles on new and developing topics of particular interest to heterocyclic chemists. Chapters in this new release are all written by leading researchers in their field, constituting a systematic survey of the important original material reported in the literature of heterocyclic chemistry in 2021. As with previous volumes in the series, this book will enable academic and industrial chemists, and advanced students, to keep abreast of developments in heterocyclic chemistry. - Presents articles on new and developing topics of interest to heterocyclic chemists - Provides a systematic survey of the important 2022 heterocyclic chemistry literature - Includes contributions from leading researchers in the field - Recognized as the premiere annual review of heterocyclic chemistry
The use of microbial systems to produce various biomolecules at an industrial scale is the most common method available as it is cost-effective and easy to produce. Currently, high yield strains isolated naturally or modified genetically for yield improvements and cost effectiveness are becoming increasingly popular. A number of strategies for strain improvement have been reported by scientists and researchers that have been used for production at an industrial scale.
Microbes in Land Use Change Management details the various roles of microbial resources in management of land uses and how the microbes can be used for the source of income due to their cultivation for the purpose of biomass and bioenergy production. Using various techniques, the disturbed and marginal lands may also be restored eco-friendly in present era to fulfil the feeding needs of mankind around the globe. Microbes in Land Use Change Management provides standard and up to date information towards the land use change management using various microbial technologies to enhance the productivity of agriculture. Needless to say that Microbes in Land Use Change Management also considers the a...
How to achieve sustainable agricultural production without compromising environmental quality, agro-ecosystem function and biodiversity is a serious consideration in current agricultural practices. Farming systems’ growing dependency on chemical inputs (fertilizers, pesticides, nutrients etc.) poses serious threats with regard to crop productivity, soil fertility, the nutritional value of farm produce, management of pests and diseases, agro-ecosystem well-being, and health issues for humans and animals. At the same time, microbial inoculants in the form of biofertilizers, plant growth promoters, biopesticides, soil health managers, etc. have gained considerable attention among researchers,...
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Srinivasa, also known as Venkateshwara, Venkataramana, Venkatesha, etc. is the reigning deity in Tirupathi, a holy place in Andhra Pradesh. The Tirumala hills comprises seven hills and Lord Venkateshwara is atop the last hill. It is believed that a person who worships the Lord here gets cleansed of all sins as it happened in the case of Madhava. Madhava had committed several sins but he got free of them and in another birth he came to be known as Akasharaya and got Lakshmi as his daughter. Sage Bhrigu was in search of a recipient of a yajna’s benefit and thus visited the Trinity. His anger had grown by the time he reached Narayana as he had not been welcomed by either Brahma or Sankara. So...
Informative as well as entertaining, this volume offers many interesting facets of the first hundred years of anthropology at Oxford University.
Ramanujan has been described as a person with a somewhat shy and quiet disposition, a dignified man with pleasant manners. He lived a rather Spartan life while at Cambridge. Ramanujan's first Indian biographers describe him as rigorously orthodox. Ramanujan credited his acumen to his family Goddess, Namagiri of Namakkal. He looked to her for inspiration in his work, and claimed to dream of blood drops that symbolised her male consort, Narasimha, after which he would receive visions of scrolls of complex mathematical content unfolding before his eyes. He often said, "An equation for me has no meaning, unless it represents a thought of God." Hardy cites Ramanujan as remarking that all religions seemed equally true to him. Hardy further argued that Ramanujan's religiousness had been romanticised by Westerners and overstated—in reference to his belief, not practice—by Indian biographers. At the same time, he remarked on Ramanujan's strict observance of vegetarianism.
When Srinivasa Ramanujan was born in the small town of Kumbakonam in 1887, his parents did not suspect that he would grow up to be one of the most extraordinary people in the world. In fact, he was such a quiet child that they worried he would never speak. But Ramanujan's grandfather taught him to read, the little boy rapidly discovered a delight in learning, especially in mathematics. It was a delight that would shape his life and that of everyone he met. Ramanujan's short life was one of extremes, of shining mental exuberance and great poverty, of unrelenting hard work and of equally unrelenting illness. But his genius, his sheer enthusiasm and his fervor for mathematics never dimmed and his legacy lives on.
