Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ...many authors accepted the rules adopted by the two congresses of 1889 and 1892, other authors failed to follow them. The German Zoological Society (1894) adopted a code of its own, prepared by a special committee, consisting of Carus, Doderlein, and Mobius, and the German members of that society have followed these rules more or less in detail. When the Third International Zoological Congress met (1895, Leyden) the situation was practically as follows: ' English systematists were following the Stricklandian Code; French systematists were following the International Code; German systematists were following the German Code; American systematists were divided between the Stricklandian, the "A. O. U.," 'the Dali, and the International codes; systematists in special groups were in some cases following special or even personal codes; and systematists of Italy, Russia, and some other countries were following either the International or some other code. F. E. Schulze proposed to the Third International Congress (1895, Leyden) that an international commission of five members should be appointed to study all of these codes and to consider their similarities and differences. This proposition was supported by Blanchard, and the following commission was appointed: Prof. R. Blanchard (Paris), Prof. J. V. Carus (Leipzig), Dr. F. A. Jentink (Leyden), Dr. P. L. Sclater (London), and Dr. Ch. VVardeIl Stiles (Washington). The commission reported progress at the Fourth International Congress (1898, Cambridge) and was increased to fifteen members. This larger commission reported to the Fifth International Congress (1901, Berlin), and the code proposed was adopted. A subcommittee consisting of Blanchard, von Maehrenthal, and Stiles was then...

Jerusalem Artichoke Food Science and Technology

This is the first book to explore the science underlying the Jerusalem artichoke, which is also known as Helianthus tuberosus L. and it is attracting increasing interest among food scientists and professionals worldwide. Due to a wide perspective for the production of inulin due to its high economic and ecological importance, the development of technologies for isolating and processing tuberous sunflower raw materials using environmentally friendly technologies (green chemistry and white biotechnology) and the global production of inulin shows an increasing tendency. Here we focus on the latest technological achievements related to the use of inulin in the food processing. In this book, readers will find full explanation of the conceptual aspects and the latest research results on a wide range of topics, including the relevant characteristics and applications from various fields. Written by leading scientists in the field, the book will be a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of food chemistry, nutritional science, physiology, and bioengineers, as well as for professionals in the food industry.
