Simultaneous effect of salt and smoke on chemical indices of cold-smoked salmon and on
its shelf life, estimated by sensory analysis, was investigated during vacuum-packed storage …

A key property upon which the interest in biochar rests is the period that it remains in soil
compared to the uncharred biomass that it was produced from (Lehmann et al, 2006). It …
