Comparative Study of Dextrose Production from Locally Sourced Cassava, Tigernut and Yam
Abstract: Starch was extracted after sedimentation from seven samples, TME 419, TMS 30572, Provitamin, Tigernut, Boko, Mumuyi and Onitsha. The first three samples were cassava varieties while the last three samples were species of yam variety Dioscorea rotundata. The extracted starch were gelatinized and hydrolyzed enzymatically to produce 250ml of dextrose from each sample. From spectrometer analysis it showed that Mumuyi dextrose has the highest glucose concentration of 0.72mg/ml when compared …

Microalgae in Bioremediation of Waste water and Production of Bioproducts
Abstract: Domestic wastewater treatment and remediation is an exclusive practice due to substantial time and scheduling needed for fruitful management. Recent waste water treatment plants are extremely mechanical and costly to build and sustain. Maximum of the domestic waste water is considered feeble or average in strength with nitrogen levels between 20–40 mg/L and phosphorus levels between 4–8 mg/L[3]. These concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus are unwanted as they can lead …

Chitosan: Chemistry, Applications & Economics of Production - A Review
Abstract: Chitosan is a natural poly-cationic linear polysaccharide derived from chitin and also known as de-acetylated chitin. It is derived from partial de-acetylation of chitin. Its low solubility in neutral and alkaline solution limits its application. Chitosan’s chemical modification brings to it new reactive functional properties for different applications. Because of biocompatibility, non-toxicity, low allergenicity and biodegradability, it is used in various applications .This review paper presents the chemistry, literature review …
