Potential for the introduction of soybean into crop rotations in the Normandy region
2022
Europe is looking for alternatives for soybean importations and needs more local production of protein crops to meet the growing demand for proteins both for feed and food. One strategy to meet this demand could be to expand the soybean production areas (Karges et al, 2022). However, some preliminary information is required before starting producing a new crop. Firstly, farmers lack technical and economic references such as adapted technical management or potential yield but also the impact on gross margin of crop rotation. Then advisors, also needs similar information when working with farmers. Finally, collectors may need the potential total volume potentially produced in a given area to …
How to decrease the negative impact of water stress on soybean production : application of thuricin-17 and nod factors
2014
International audience; Climate change will most certainly result in increased drought stress events. Besides, water scarcity is already the abiotic stress most limiting to crop production and this is particularly relevant for drought-sensitive legumes. For example, a moderate level of water deficit can reduce soybean production by approximately 40%. In this context, the objective of this study was to develop a method involving the use of beneficial plant x microorganism interaction in order to reduce the impact of water stress on soybean production. In particular we investigated whether the application of two molecules (thuricin-17 or lipochitooligosaccharides (LCO)) produced by a Plant Gr…
Blagnac (Haute-Garonne), ZAC Andromède : Coinays, Ferradou, Sauzas

Les découvertes du second âge du Fer correspondent à un ensemble de deux enclos successifs. Un premier enclos, d'une surface de près de 2 ha, doté d'un partitionnement interne, a livré un nombre limité de structures. La mise en place de cet enclos, probablement à vocation agro-pastorale, se fait dans la seconde moitié du IIe s. av. n. è. Le seond enclos, d'ampleur plus réduite (1 ha) présentait un accès matérialisé par un système de franchissement monumental de type tour-porche. Les comblements de fossé des deux enclos ont révéle une forte densité de mobilier céramique et amphorique ainsi que quelques éléments remarquables pour le seconde enclos : statuaire, instrumentum métallique, monnaie…
Note preliminari sul rinvenimento di un'area artigianale da Contrada Amone e sulla produzione ceramica nel bacino idrografico del fiume Nocella
2019
Questo articolo esamina le evidenza archeologiche di età romana nella Piana di Partinico, un'area ad Est del Golfo di Castellammare ricca di insediamenti rurali e ville tra cui quella famosa di Sirignano. L'area di contrada Amone, già nota per la presenza di un impianto termale e la scoperta di lacerti di mosaici policromi, si arricchisce adesso di una nuova area artigianale. La scoperta di alcuni scarti di tegole ha fornito l'opportunità per riflettere sulla possibile origine delle tegole bollate ONASOY, di cui si accetta tradizionalmente la provenienza dalla baia di San Cataldo. Viene dunque presentato un esame preliminare degli impasti ceramici provenienti da contrada Amone e baia San Ca…
Protein and glycerol contents affect physico-chemical properties of soy protein isolate-based edible films
2010
Abstract This study was conducted to determine the effect of both soy protein and glycerol contents on physico-chemical properties of soy protein isolate-based edible (SPI) films. The aim of this study was to better understand the influence of SPI and GLY contents on the behavior of the physico-chemical properties of soy protein isolate-based films. Films were casted from heated (70 °C for 20 min) alkaline (pH 10) aqueous solutions of SPI at 6, 7, 8, and 9 (w/w %), glycerol (50%, w/w, of SPI) and SPI at 7 (w/w %), glycerol (40, 60, 70 %, w/w of SPI). Water vapor permeability (WVP), was measured at 25 °C and for four different relative humidities (30–100%, 30–84%, 30–75%, 30–53%). Surface pr…
Effects of soybean meal based diet on growth performance, gut histopathology and intestinal microbiota of juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
2006
Abstract Effects of soybean meal (SBM) based diet on growth performance, histology of the intestinal epithelium and on the gut microbiota of juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were investigated on two trials lasting for 8 weeks (Trial I) and 18 weeks (Trial II). The microbiological characterization was done both with conventional plating techniques, biochemical profiling and length heterogeneity analysis of PCR amplified 16S rDNA (LH-PCR). Typical histological changes were found after 18 weeks of SBM feeding (Trial II). Mean height of simple foldings were significantly higher within the group fed with fish meal (FM) based diet. These changes were not, however, reflected in the app…
TRANSPLANTATION AND IN VITRO ANALYSIS OF SOYBEAN-AGGLUTININ SEPARATED MOUSE SPLEEN CELLS
1984
In human bone marrow allotransplantation, an in vitro method using soybean agglutinin(SBA) for enrichment of stem cells and depletion of mature T cells in the graft has been described (Reisner et al.;Lancet 2:1320,1980).To define the quality of the method,mouse spleen cells (C3H, C57/B6,BALB/c)containing about 30% of mature T cells were separated by SBA.The composition and functional capacity of the cell fraction known to contain the stem cells were characterized in vitro after each of two SBA-separation steps.In addition, the ability of the cell fraction to reconstitute successfully allogeneic irradiated (900R) mice was investigated. Only the two step SBA-separation procedure yielded satis…
Body mass index categories and anxiety symptoms among adults aged =?50 years from low and middle income countries.
2021
Background: Body weight may be a risk factor for anxiety; however, there is a scarcity of studies on this association in older adults especially from low and middle income countries (LMICs). Therefore, we investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and anxiety symptoms among adults aged ≥ 50 years from 6 LMICs. Methods: Cross-sectional, community-based, nationally representative data from the World Health Organization (WHO) Study on global AGEing and adult health (SAGE) were analyzed. The BMI was based on measured weight and height and was categorized as: < 18.5 kg/m2 (underweight), 18.5–24.9 kg/m2 (normal weight), 25.0–29.9 kg/m2 (overweight), 30.0–34.9 kg/m2 (obesity cla…
STEM CELLS FOR TREATMENT OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES: AN UMBRELLA REVIEW OF RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS
2021
AIMS:\ud \ud Stem cells are a promising therapy for various medical conditions. The literature regarding their adoption for the clinical care of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is still conflicting. Therefore, our aim is to assess the strength and credibility of the evidence on clinical outcomes and application of stem cells derived from systematic reviews and meta-analyses of intervention studies in CVD.\ud \ud METHODS and RESULTS:\ud \ud Umbrella review of systematic reviews with meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using placebo/no intervention as control group. For meta-analyses of RCTs, outcomes with a random-effect p-value< 0.05, the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Ass…
Proteolytic cleavage of soybean Bowman-Birk inhibitor monitored by means of high-performance capillary electrophoresis. Implications for the mechanis…
1996
The hydrolysis of the soybean Bowman-Birk inhibitor in the presence of catalytic amounts of bovine trypsin and the formation of the non-covalent enzyme-inhibitor complex with an equimolar amount of enzyme are monitored by means of high-performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE). The inhibitor is cleaved in the trypsin-reactive and more slowly in the chymotrypsin-reactive subdomain. HPCE proves itself as the only reliable analytical tool to monitor these reactions in clear contrast to classical electrophoretic, chromatographic and enzymatic methods. The most efficient separation of the intact and the two active site cleaved forms of the inhibitor was achieved in borate buffer at pH 10.0. T…
