    Notes: The influence of the pH of the heating medium (which included several foods and buffers) on the thermal resistance (D and z-values) of spores of three Bacillus cereus strains was studied. Acidification from pH 7.0 to 4.0 produced a 5-fold decrease in D-values. Plots of log D vs pH gave straight lines, which made it possible to develop an equation to approximately predict the changes in heat sensitivity of B. cereus spores which occurred with changing pH. z-Values for two of the strains studied were not affected by acidification. On the other hand, with the strain ATCC 9818, a clear and statistically significant increase in z-value was observed as the pH decreased.

    Notes: The effects of the addition of starch, glucose, sodium chloride, sodium citrate, monopotassium phosphate and disodium phosphate to the recovery medium on apparent heat resistance of Bacillus cereus spores (ATCC 4342, 7004 and 9818) were investigated. Sodium citrate, monopotassium and disodium phosphate at concentrations of 0.1% were effective inhibitory agents for heat injured B. cereus spores especially for strain 9818, although only monopotassium and disodium phosphate caused a significant reduction (p 〈 0.05) in D-values obtained for strain 9818. Sodium chloride also had a marked effect on the recovery of heat injured spores. Concentration as low as 0.5% caused a significant reduction in the recovery rates for strains 9818 and 7004. In all cases, increasing the salt levels from 0.5 to 4% resulted in a progressive decrease in spore recovery. D-values gradually decreased as the salt content increased, although the concentrations which produced statistically significant differences (p 〈 0.05) varied among strains. The addition of starch at 0.1% resulted in a significant increase in the counts for strains 9818 and 7004. In contrast, glucose (0.1%), did not significantly modify the counts obtained Neither of these compounds affected decimal reduction times. No statistical significance (p〉0.05) differences were detected among z-values for the spores of the three strains recovered in the presence of different additives assayed. z-Values ranged from 6.67 to 8.32, with a mean value of 7.56 ± 0.46C.

    Notes: Abstract. A field study was conducted to assess the effect of the nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP), applied at a rate of 1 kg ha−1, on nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, forage production and N extraction from a grassland soil after cattle slurry applications in autumn and spring. Nitrous oxide emissions were measured daily or weekly using the closed chamber technique. DMPP efficiency after slurry application was lower in spring (16.7 °C mean soil temperature) than in autumn (11.4 °C mean soil temperature). Thus, DMPP was able to maintain soil mineral N in the ammonium form for 22 days and reduce cumulative N2O emissions by 69% in autumn, while in spring its effect on soil mineral N lasted for 7–14 days, reducing cumulative N2O losses by 48%. Furthermore, application of DMPP after slurry did not decrease biomass yield or N uptake.

    Notes: Abstract. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is involved in both ozone destruction and global warming. In agricultural soils it is produced by nitrification and denitrification mainly after fertilization. Nitrification inhibitors have been proposed as one of the management tools for the reduction of the potential hazards of fertilizer-derived N2O. Addition of nitrification inhibitors to fertilizers maintains soil N in ammonium form, thereby gaseous N losses by nitrification and denitrification are less likely to occur and there is increased N utilization by the sward. We present a study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) and of the slurry additive Actilith F2 on N2O emissions following application of calcium ammonium nitrate or cattle slurry to a mixed clover/ryegrass sward in the Basque Country. The results indicate that large differences in N2O emission occur depending on fertilizer type and the presence or absence of a nitrification inhibitor. There is considerable scope for immediate reduction of emissions by applying DCD with calcium ammonium nitrate or cattle slurry. DCD, applied at 25 kg ha–1, reduced the amount of N lost as N2O by 60% and 42% when applied with cattle slurry and calcium ammonium nitrate, respectively. Actilith F2 did not reduce N2O emissions and it produced a long lasting mineralization of previously immobilized added N.

    Nitrous oxide emissions from grassland in an intensive dairy farm in the Basque Country of Spain (2001)

    Notes: Abstract. Intensively managed grasslands are potentially a large source of N2O in the North Coast of Spain because of the large N input, the wet soil conditions and mild temperatures. To quantify the effect of fertilizer type and management practices carried out by farmers in this area, field N2O losses were measured over a year using the closed chamber technique. Plots received two types of fertilizer: cattle slurry (536 kg N ha–1) and calcium ammonium nitrate (140 kg N ha–1). N2O losses were less in the slurry treatment than after mineral fertilizer. This was probably due to high, short-lived peaks of N2O encountered immediately following mineral N addition. In contrast, the seasonal distribution of N2O losses from the slurry amended plot was more uniform over the year. The greater N2O losses in the mineral treatment might have been enhanced by the combined effect of mineral fertilizer and past organic residues present from previous organic amendments. Weak relationships were found between N2O emission rates and soil nitrate, soil ammonium, soil water content and temperature. Better relationships were obtained in the mineral treatment than in the slurry plots, because of the wider range in soil mineral N. Water filled pore space (WFPS) was a key factor controlling N2O emissions. In the 〉 90% WFPS range no relationships were found. The best regressions were found for the mineral treatment in the 40–65% WFPS range, 49% of the variance being explained by soil nitrate and ammonium content. In the 65–90% WFPS range, 43% of the variance was explained by nitrate only, but the inclusion of soil ammonium did not improve the model as it did in the 40–65% WFPS range. This fact indicates that nitrification is likely to be an important process involved in N2O emissions at the 40–65% WFPS.

    Notes: The effect of cow slurry N on productivity and white clover content was compared with that of mineral fertilization in a natural grassland sward. Fertilizer was applied at two different N rates as split applications of ammonium nitrate, or as cow slurry (145 or 290 kg N ha−1 in the first year and 120 or 240 kg N ha−1 In the second year)- In the first year, fertilizer N produced higher dry matter (DM) yields than the slurry treatments. Nitrogen efficiency and clover content reduction were higher for the mineral treatments, the efficiency being lower for the higher rate of N application. In the second year, N supplied by the slurry gave the same productivity, N efficiency and white clover content reduction as that from the mineral N fertilization; higher efficiency in the second year being due to favourable weather conditions and low white clover contents. The high N efficiencies of the slurry compared with the fertilizer N treatments were attributed to the dilution of the slurry and to split applications over the year. Yield differences between treatments were due mainly to the grass component of the sward. Competition between grasses and other species, and white clover for mineral N resulted in a reduction in the white clover content in those treatments in which more N was supplied, whether it came from the mineralization of slurry or from the fertilizer N applied.

    Notes: Changes in stubble carbohydrate content during the regrowth of ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) grown under hydroponic conditions at two nitrogen levels were studied as a function of time by high-performance liquid chromatography. Experimental data showed that regrowth at a non-limiting nitrogen level (1·0 mol m−3 NH4NO3) involved two different physiological periods. The first occurred during the first 6 d and was characterized by the mobilization of 60 to 90% of the soluble carbohydrates (i.e. glucose, fructose, sucrose, oligofructans and polyfructans). During the second period (6.28 d of regrowth) carbohydrate contents rose to the values observed prior to cutting (20% of dry matter at the 28th d of regrowth).The effect of low nitrogen conditions (0·2 mol m−3 NH4NO3) was observed only during the second phase. Plants regrown in a nitrogen-starved medium accumulated 2·3-fold more polyfructans than plants regrown in a non-limiting nitrogen medium. Their fructose and glucose contents remained at 2% of dry matter from the end of the first phase of mobilization.The experimental results are interpreted and discussed in terms of the existence of two distinct fructan synthetic pathways.

    Notes: As a contribution to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) programs, we have analyzed products produced and offered by ready-to-eat food stores. Two hundred and seventy four samples of a wide variety of foods from 19 different shops were analyzed. Aerobic counts, total coliforms and yeast and molds were enumerated in each sample. Food stores were evaluated using a GMP check-list. They were grouped in three classes: Class III, nonsatisfactory GMP; Class II, partially satisfactory GMP; and Class I, satisfactory GMP. From the results of microorganism counts in the Class I food shops the following maximum counts are proposed for cooked ready-to-eat foods: aerobic colony count: 105 cfu g−1. It is coincident with satisfactory microbiological quality of many category 3 foods drawn up by Public Health Laboratory Service (PHLS).

    Notes: : The influence of protein and calcium concentration on soy protein cold-set gel formation and rheology has been investigated. Cold-set gels can be formed at soy protein concentrations from 6% to 9% and calcium concentrations from 10 to 20 mM. Gel properties can be modulated by changing the protein and/or CaCl2 concentrations. An increase in CaCl2 concentration from 10 to 20 mM increased gel opacity while an increase in protein concentration from 6% to 9% decreased opacity. Water-holding capacity improved with increasing protein concentration and decreasing CaCl2 concentration. The elastic modulus (G') increased with protein and calcium chloride concentrations. Microscopy revealed an increase in the diameters of aggregates and pores as CaCl2 concentration increased and as protein concentration decreased. Cold-set gels with a broad range of characteristics can be obtained from soy protein.

    Notes: : The design of many separation processes is often hindered by the lack of equilibrium data. In recent years, statistically based experimental design has been successfully used to quantify relevant factors in many biological and chemical processes. We illustrate the capabilities of one of these approaches in obtaining equilibrium data for the design of lixiviation processes. The study case involves the lixiviation of marigold flower flour for xanthophylls extraction using hexane in a multistage countercurrent system. The method leads to conditions that allow the recovery of 95.3% of the pigment in seven stages.
