The objective of this study was to know about the effect of simple parboiling on physical properties, proximate composition, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity. These were studied in raw and parboiled paddy varieties as well as bioaccessibility of specific nutrients (minerals, starch, and antioxidants). The pigmented rice paddy varieties such as Jyothi, Meter & Athikaraya were parboiled by hot soaking treatment after soaking for 2, 2½, and 3 hr. Athikaraya rice showed high protein, low ash in raw and parboiled than other varieties. Amylose equivalents of all three varieties exhibited in the range of 24%-27% (d.b). Whereas, the soluble amylose content showed 12.7, 8.7, and 7.7% (d.b) in Athikaraya, Meter and Jyothi rice varieties, respectively. Jyothi rice showed less cooking time and more cooking volume. Athikaraya showed high phenolic content and antioxidant properties compared to other two varieties. The dialysability of minerals, starch, and antioxidants were increased due to simple hot soaking parboiling. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The present study has the significance in assessing the variation among different pigmented rice varieties after parboiling by simple hot soaking with various soaking periods. The industrial advantage of this method is, there is no usage of boiler for cooking the paddy by steam, which was economically better. The information gained by this study might be beneficial for consumers and suppliers regarding the quality of the selected pigmented rice varieties with respect to nutrient composition, antioxidant activities, and bioaccessibility of minerals, starch, and antioxidants. Ultimately, the present study can lead to better appreciation of pigmented rice and assist food processors in selecting rice variety with unique characteristics for specialty food preparations.

Background/objectives: Three-dimensional printing technology has emerging interest in pharmaceutical manufacturing, offering new opportunities for personalized medicine and customized drug delivery systems. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is highly regarded in the pharmaceutical industry because of its cost effectiveness, easy operation, and versatility in creating pharmaceutical dosage forms. This review investigates different methods of incorporating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) into filament matrices for use in fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing.

In order to reduce the amount of diluent in a diluted asphalt mixture, this study developed a cold patch asphalt (CPA) for repairing pavement potholes by using a mixture of treated biodiesel and diesel as the diluent. The effects of biodiesel on the performance of the cold patch asphalt mixture (CPAM) during the construction process were investigated through Brookfield rotational viscosity tests, adhesion tests, and FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) analyses. At the same time, the effect of biodiesel on the performance of the CPAM was analyzed by combining the strength growth test, rutting test, and water-soaked Marshall test of CPAMs.

The impact of volcanic activity on microorganisms has always been a hot topic of discussion during geological history. Further studies are needed on the effects of volcanic activity on microbial growth in shale and the differences in nutrients provided by volcanic ash and other weathered rocks. This study's results indicated that TOC contents at the bottom of the shale layer are 1.
