The ancestors of Ailuropoda melanoleuca, which are also known as giant pandas, evolved about 40 million years ago. The pandas are native to Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu areas in China with their largest population in the Minshan, Qinling, and Qionglai mountain ranges. However, their smallest populations are in the mountain ranges of Lianshan, Daxiangling, and Xiaoxiangling. In 1974-1977, the estimated population was 2, 459 and had then experienced a major decrease, but is now increasing and is currently

2.1 Mushrooms were known and consumed as food in ceremonies as far back as prehistoric times. Throughout the history, mushrooms were used in different cultures for their medicinal and tonic properties (Gunde-Cimerman, 1999). Mushrooms represent a major and as yet largely untapped source of great new pharmaceutical products. The most noteworthy medicinal effect of mushrooms and their metabolites that they fascinated the attention of the public in the modern years is their antitumour property. Many

mentioned earlier, cellulose can be natural (native) or man made (regenerated). It is very difficult to find cellulose in pure state. When derived from plant source, cellulose is associated with other substances like lignin and hemicellulose. In addition to lignin and hemicellulose, a number of non structural components such as waxes, inorganic salts and nitrogenous substances are also present [18] . Figure 4 shows the schematic of hierarchical structure of wood

Describe nutrition, including nutritional requirements using recommended guidelines from public health sources associated with nutrition. Nutrition and macronutrients Macronutrients are nutrients that provide energy and calories to the body, nutrients are substances that are needed for growth, metabolism and along with other functions in the body. Macro meaning large suggests that macronutrients are nutrients that are needed in large amounts, these nutrients are carbohydrates, protein and fat,

Due to the close relationship between the absorption of triglycerides and fat-soluble vitamins, disorders of fat absorption are invariably always associated with a disorder of the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Esters of fat-soluble vitamins, dissolved in nutritional fat, are hydrolyzed in the intestinal lumen by pancreatic carboxylic ester hydrolases (Ballard et al., 2007, Reboul and Borel, 2011). The underlying mechanisms of water-soluble vitamins being absorbed are more complex and less uniform

Conventionally, in aerospace, automotive and packaging industries synthetic fiber reinforced composites are widely used because of their greater strength and stiffness. But synthetic fibers are expensive and not ecofriendly. So, of late biofibers are replacing synthetic fibers which are extensively used as reinforcements in composites and these materials are gaining popularity as potential structural materials because they are abundantly available renewable, sustainable, light weight, non abrasive

Executive summary Biomass has become one of the most commonly used renewable sources of energy in the last two decades. Many of the biomass fuels used today come in the form of wood products, dried vegetation, crop residues, and aquatic plants. It is such a widely utilized source of energy, probably due to its low cost and indigenous nature, that it accounts for almost 14% of the world 's total energy supply and as much as 35% in developing countries, mostly for cooking and heating. The wood from

silica gel. Canola meal, however, is one of the byproducts of canola industries including oil extraction and biodiesel production. [Canola meal is composed of 36% crude protein, 12% moisture, 20% neutral detergent fiber consisting of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, 5% starch, 10% free sugar and non-starch polysaccharides, 4% crude fat, and 6% ash (Canola council of

Guerrero, et al. [1] stated that simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process is known as a process where the glucose produced by the hydrolyzing enzymes were consumed by fermenting microorganisms as they are released. This configuration can be considered as SSF process as since the beginning of experiments, the yeast inoculum and enzymes were incubated simultaneously . Mussatto, et al. [19] stated that SSF has great advantage which is the lower capital and operating costs due to

and less corrosive chemicals than wood fibers. These advantages would help the production to be more efficient and cost effective for the paper production. The quality of fiber produced from this material depends on the contents of cellulose, hemicellulose and holocellulose (Kinsella, 2008). A higher content of cellulose can give stronger fibers that will lead to the increase in the quality of the paper produced (Aremu, Rafiu & Adedeji, 2015). Since all plant materials have cellulose in form of fibers
