The production of artificially dried feeds is one of the most effective ways to preserve the nutritional properties of the original plant material for the long term. This method was used in the Soviet Union and currently applies in the countries of Europe and in the United States to obtain the ingredients of feed for pigs, poultry and calves. Introducing into the mixed feeds the vitamin grasses flour, that reached by biological active substances, provides the partial replacement of the expensive premixes and additives. The efficiency of usage the artificially dried grass in the rations of animals was considerate in the present study and the factors of its quality enhancing were estimated.
Stable, water-soluble titanium complexed with mandelic acid was used as a precursor for titanium phosphorus double oxide obtained in hydrothermal conditions in the presence of phosphoric acid. Surprisingly, hydrolysis of organic complexes provided a microstructured sphere with narrow size distribution, low aggregation and a small fraction of morphological irregularities. Obtained microspheres had a complex structure comprised of flakes, whose size could be manipulated with temperature conditions. Samples were found to be electrochemically active against sulcotrione, a well-recognized herbicide. Electrochemical sensors based on the synthesized microspheres were successfully adapted for natural water reservoir analysis and exhibited low levels of detection of 0.61 µM, limit of quantification of 1.86 µM, wide dynamic linear range from 2 to 200 µM, good selectivity, excellent reproducibility and in-time stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
