The environment is continuously under threat with the new products and processes being developed. A careful scrutiny of all the new products and processes is extremely essential. A class of new contaminants called as the emerging contaminants has been identified by the researchers. The emerging contaminants have different origins but are equally harmful with their effects on human and environment. The emerging contaminants require newer methods to be devised to take complete care of them. The conventional water treatment methods are insufficient to take care of the emerging contaminants. The emerging contaminants include a range of products like sunscreens, Pharmaceuticals, Flame Retardants, Disinfection Byproducts etc. The present study focuses on treatment of pharmaceutical emerging contaminant using sonication method.

Coffee when contaminated with moulds such as Aspergillus and Penicillium species due to poor processing and storage can produce mycotoxins such as Ochratoxin A (OTA) associated to many health hazards to consumers. The aim of this research was to determine the levels of moulds and Ochratoxin A in coffee processed by dry and wet methods. The coffee samples were collected from Estates and Factories located in the main coffee processing zone in Nyeri County, Kenya. The parameters determined in the green beans were; moisture content, levels of moulds and OTA contamination. The moisture content of coffee samples were determined by dry oven method, OTA levels by use of HPLC and moulds enumeration by serial dilution technique. The results showed no significant difference on the level of moisture content in the coffee samples from Estates and Factories. Ochratoxin A was not detected in all coffee samples. Mould counts of coffee samples from Factories and Estates were found to be between 1 × 10 3 CFU/ml to 6.0 × 10 1 CFU/ml. The highest mould contamination was observed in dry processed coffee as compared to wet processed coffee. Although few samples showed mould contamination, there were no OTA detected in the samples.

The purpose of this study was to investigate preparation of ice milk mixes by substituting oat milk and oatmeal or barley milk and milled barley instead of buffalo skim milk (BSM) and skim milk powder (SMP) at ratios 0 : 100 (C0), 25 : 75 (OC25 & BC25), 50 : 50 (OC50 & BC50), 75 : 25 (OC75 & BC75) and 100 : 0 (O100 & B100) and substituting their blend instead of BSM and SMP at ratio 75 : 25 (OBC75) and evaluation of frozen products physically, sensually, economically and nutritionally. The ice milk made from 100% BSM and SMP served as the control (C0). The results showed that replacement of non fat milk solids (MSNF) with grain oat and barley components increased pH and viscosity values and decreased the specific gravity (Sp.gr), weight per gallon (Wt/gal) and whipping ability of ice milk mixes. Ice milk mixes made from 100% grain oat and barley components were excluded from the ice milk processing because of their very high viscosity and very low whipping ability. Incorporation of oat's or barley's components into ice milk mixes negatively affected Sp.gr, Wt/gal, overrun values and meltdown rate of the resultant ice milks. Results of sensory evaluation showed that most acceptable ice milks compared to untreated ice milk (C0) they order BC25-, OC25-, BC50-, OBC75and OC50ice milk. Economically, BC25ice milk was the least expensive, followed by BC50and OC25then OBC75ice milk. The nutritional analysis of ice milks more palatable sensually and economically (BC25-, BC50-, OC25and OBC75ice milk) indicated that calories, protein, ash, carbohydrate and dietary fibers were found to be good amount in comparison to C0. Thus, these ice milks would be highly nutritious and not expensive.

This study aims to find out the dung beetles species associated with various stages of cow dung decomposition in an agrohabitat.2-6 hr old fresh cow dung pats were placed in open agricultural fields in Kerala, South India. Beetle composition from 8 stages of colonization, lasting 14 days were analysed to throw light into succession of dung beetles. Dung beetles in cow dung pats involved a short stay of 14 days. Fifteen dung beetle species representing eight genera and four tribes were recorded. Both abundance and species richness increased till 4th day of succession and declined beyond. Dwellers were early to arrive, tunnelers were the most prominent guild and rollers were completely absent in the samples. As these beetles plays an important role as ecological indicators, declining population of dung beetles in agricultural habitats, should be taken seriously and more research is needed in this regard.

Fermented milk products possess very important input and also plays a vital role in providing nutritional and therapeutic properties especially in dairy industries. Dahi is an indigenous and common fermented milk product of household and also has its own commercial value, prepared using lactic culture with probiotic properties. The present study was undertaken to find out the presence of acid and bile tolerance cultures for dahi samples collected from Bangalore market area. This process was carried to obtain the probiotic culture which is very much significant in the present scenario of any food and nutritional aspects of any industry related to food business. Further, the primary data were collected from different BBMP zones of Bengaluru consisting of 24 numbers of dahi samples were used for the study purpose. The results revealed that, the presence of lactococci, streptococci, leuconsotoc and lactobacilli were the major lactic acid bacterial growth. Among 82 lactic isolates, 43 isolates showed better activity in milk, acidity and DMC. Further the isolates sceening for acid and bile tolerance by adjusting the pH of the medium to 2.0 and by using 0.3% ox – bile. The maximum acid and bile tolerated isolates 12 numbers were genotypically identified as L.lactis ssp. Lactis (1) and L.lactis ssp. Lactis bv diacetylactis(1), among the 3 lactobacilli isolates L.plantarum (1), L.fermnetum (1) and L.helviticus (1) in case of leuconostocs isolates as L. mesentroides ssp. mesentroides (2) and all the streptococci as S.thermophilus (5). The purpose study is to identify the acid and bile tolerance on lactic acid bacteria and also information on identifying appropriate genotypically species of LAB which are acid and bile tolerant in nature and also boost the dairy industry in long run with these unique qualities which are very much essential for assessing the probiotic nature of particular organisms used in fermented products.
