In Canada agricultural water use\nranks 4th among other water users but it is the highest consumer of\nwater through irrigation. Increasing compe tition among water users\nand the pressure of climate variability and chan ge is a major\nthreat to food production. To ensure that food production i s\nsustained\, a framework for allocating water among users and to\nirriga tion is essential. An overview of water use in Canada is\nprovided and mec hanism for irrigation water allocation and\napplication is presented.\nRev iewers: Xin Rui\, Kumaran Sivagnanam\, Louis-Martin Dion\,\nAudrey Yank\n  \nBromelain – Proteases from Pineapple\nXin Rui\n01 Oct. 2009\, 10:05-11:2 5\, Raymond 2-046\nHave you ever had the experience that your mouth feels a little\nbit burned when you are eating pineapple? That feeling is mainly \ndue to the effect of the enzymes in pineapple -- bromelain.\nBromelain i s a group of proteolytic enzymes found in both the\npineapple fruit and st em. Research shows that they have broad\napplications including meat tende rizing and diverse medical uses.\nThis presentation will focus on the appl ications of bromelain.\nMeanwhile\, the definition and their distribution\ , as well as\nproduction and commercial products of bromelain will also be \nintroduced.\nReviewers: Olanike Aladenola\, Baishali Dutta\, Kumaran\nSi vagnanam\, Alicia Goodhue\n DTSTART:20091001T140000Z DTEND:20091001T150000Z SUMMARY:Bioresource Engineering Senior Seminar Series URL:/channels/event/bioresource-engineering-senior-sem inar-series-109865 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
