  • Extraction of DNA from Leather and Applications to the Supply Chain
    Extraction of DNA from Leather and applications to the supply chain. AJ Long1, VL Addy1, S Booth1, R O’Dwyer2, & R Loftus2. 1. BLC Leather Technology Centre, Leather Trade House, Kings Park Road, Moulton Park, Northampton. NN3 6JD, UK. 2. IdentiGEN, Unit 9, Trinity Enterprise Centre, Pearse Street, Dublin 02, Ireland. Abstract. Many articles that are sold as 'genuine' chamois leathers do not meet the requirements of this definition. Many people use chamois leather for its unique ability to absorb large amounts of moisture. There is a British Standard that details what can be described as genuine chamois (along with specifications in other countries such as the USA). This limits the type of material that can be used for chamois production and also the type of tannage. The authenticity testing of chamois leather is complicated. The most technically challenging element has been proving species of origin of chamois. This is because chamois leather does not have the grain layer present which would facilitate species diagnosis by microscopy. A technique has been developed that allows the extraction and amplification of DNA from leather samples to provide unequivocal species identification. This is an exciting development for the leather industry, using state of the art genetic testing procedures and could offer scope with other authenticity issues including trading standards and protected species. The definition of chamois leather also relates to the type of tannage (which must be of an oil type). Aldehyde tanning followed by marine oil fatliquoring does not meet the British Standard classification of chamois leather (In the USA the leathers must be solely oil tanned).

Excess acid in addition to higher iodine value. But the main problem oil is washed off using soap and alkali solution. Finally, these with fish oil is its strong odor and high cost. The objective of oil tanned leathers are dried and buffed using different grit the present work is to study the suitability of oils such as emery papers. Studies are reported in literature, that chamois linseed oil, castor oil, sunflower oil, animal tallow for chamois tanning using modified fish oil minimizes the odor and leather manufacture in comparision with fish oil.

Our company was made up of men from the 5th Virg., 8th Penna., 13th Virg. and Lo- gan’s Coy., and numbered 25 men-at-arms and musicians. We were accompanied by a gun crewed by men from the detached units and commanded by the Naval Landing Party. We joined a large assemblage of troops from the southern, middle and northern colonies. Our company was in the battalion of the Virginia regiments, and overall were commanded by a very able officer from New Jersey. The weather was fair and very agreeable on Friday when we arrived, and our camps were easily set. We awoke on Saturday to more weather of the same, and in the morning we were in- volved in a very sharp skirmish through the mansion’s vegetable gardens and orchards. We suc- cessfully repelled the Crown troops’ attempt on our camp. In the afternoon they returned and were able to force us back with the help of cavalry and artillery.

Kartika, Muslich, Shiva Amwaliya Department of Agroindustrial Technology Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) Darmaga Campus, PO Box 220, Bogor 16002 Email: [email protected] Abstract A weakness of chamois leather production practiced nowadays is its oxidation process taking relatively long time, i.e. nine days to two weeks. The use of an oxidizing agent was reported to shorten the oxidation process of the tanning. Appropriate condition for the tanning needs to be applied in order to improve the process efficiency and to obtain satisfactory quality leather. In this study, the best oxidation times inside and outside the rotary drum of the tanning accelerated by hydrogen peroxide were investigated. The experiment was conducted by tanning of pickled goatskin for 4, 6, and 8 hours oxidation times inside the rotary drum and 1, 2, and 3 days of oxidation times outside the drum. The physical and organoleptic properties of the leathers were tested. The physical and organoleptic properties of the leathers resulted by this study met the quality requirements for the chamois leather. The best conditions for the tanning were oxidation times of eight hours inside the rotary drum and one day outside the rotary drum.

    International Seminar on Chemical Engineering Soehadi Reksowardojo 2011 Accelerated Chamois Leather Tanning Process Using Hydrogen Peroxide as an Oxidizing Agent Ono Suparno*, Ika A. Kartika, Muslich, Shiva Amwaliya Department of Agroindustrial Technology, Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Bogor Agricultural University (IPB); Darmaga Campus, PO Box 220, Bogor 16002, Indonesia *Coresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract. Leather tanning is a process of modifying the structure of collagen fibres, so animal skin or hide that decays easily is transformed into leather, which is durable and stable to the environmental influences as well as has variety of applications. One of the leather products is oil tanned leather, known as chamois leather. It has unique uses for cleaning, drying, filtration, and garment. A weakness of chamois leather production practiced nowadays is its oxidation process taking relatively long time, i.e. nine days to two weeks. The use of an oxidizing agent was reported to shorten the oxidation process of the tanning. It has been reported that chamois leather can be produced by using rubber seed oil and oxidizing agent of hydrogen peroxide. Appropriate condition for the tanning needs to be applied in order to improve the process efficiency and to obtain satisfactory quality leather. In this study, the best oxidation times inside and outside the rotary drum of the chamois tanning were investigated. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of oxidation times of the chamois tanning on the quality of chamois leather and to determine the best condition of oxidation time for the tanning accelerated by hydrogen peroxide.
