It was found that the raw material available in the study area meets the standard specifications and the area is feasible for the cement plant installation. The area can provide raw material which is quite sufficient for the running of a cement plant.展开更多

Methods Soil and plant samples of Abutilon indicum, Calotropis procera, Euphorbia hirta, Peristrophe bycaliculata, and Tinospora cordifolia were collected from 3 environmentally different sites of the city： heavy traffic area （HTA）, industrial area （IA）, and residential area （RA）. Pb by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry and compared Cd, Cr, and Ni were estimated in soil and plant samples Results The level of heavy metal was higher in soil than in plant parts studied. Accumulation of heavy metals varied from plant to plant. Pb was the highest in Calotropis procera root from HTA site and the lowest in Peristrophe bycaliculata whole plant from IA site. It was also lower in residential area than in heavy traffic area. Conclusion The level of heavy metal content differed in the same medicinal plant collected from environmentally different sites of the same city. Thus, it reiterates our belief that every medicinal plant sample should be tested for contaminant load before processing it further for medication.展开更多
蒿菜粑粑是湘西的传统特色美食,风味独特,具有一定的经济价值和营养价值,深受人们喜爱.在三月、四月盛产蒿菜粑粑的季节,对湘西吉首、凤凰、古丈、永顺、龙山、花垣等8县(市)蒿菜植物的种类、分布及蒿菜粑粑加工工艺进行了民族植物学考...蒿菜粑粑是湘西的传统特色美食,风味独特,具有一定的经济价值和营养价值,深受人们喜爱.在三月、四月盛产蒿菜粑粑的季节,对湘西吉首、凤凰、古丈、永顺、龙山、花垣等8县(市)蒿菜植物的种类、分布及蒿菜粑粑加工工艺进行了民族植物学考察.结果表明:湘西被称为蒿菜的植物有6属9种,其中制作蒿菜粑粑的主要原料植物为菊科的魁蒿(Artemisia princeps Pamp.)和鼠麹草(Gnaphalium affine D.Don).归纳总结出了湘西蒿菜粑粑生产工艺的主要环节要点,并就湘西蒿菜粑粑产业的进一步深入开发提出了建议.展开更多
