Scientific knowledge to district of Ethiopia. Data was collected using key better manage dry forests and sustain the livelihoods of informant interviews, focus group discussions, and people that depend on these ecosystems remains scanty as household surveys. The household survey data were research to inform policy and practice is still very limited collected from 441 randomly selected households. (Lawry et al., 2015). Ethiopia’s dry forests cover about 55– Descriptive statistics like mean, frequency, and 60% of the country’s drylands (WBISPP, 2004). Numerous percentage were used to present the study results. The studies suggested that the forests and woodlands in findings illustrate that the respondents' perception of Ethiopia’s drylands offer good opportunities for improving gum arabic uses is slight since 90.7% of the sampled rural livelihoods and reducing poverty; in spite of the households responded to the reasons for not engaging in general perception that drylands are resource-poor areas gum collection is I did not know the benefit before. -

Conservation of Coated and Specialty Papers
RELACT HISTORY, TECHNOLOGY, AND TREATMENT OF SPECIALTY PAPERS FOUND IN ARCHIVES, LIBRARIES AND MUSEUMS: TRACING AND PIGMENT-COATED PAPERS By Dianne van der Reyden (Revised from the following publications: Pigment-coated papers I & II: history and technology / van der Reyden, Dianne; Mosier, Erika; Baker, Mary , In: Triennial meeting (10th), Washington, DC, 22-27 August 1993: preprints / Paris: ICOM , 1993, and Effects of aging and solvent treatments on some properties of contemporary tracing papers / van der Reyden, Dianne; Hofmann, Christa; Baker, Mary, In: Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, 1993) ABSTRACT Museums, libraries, and archives contain large collections of pigment-coated and tracing papers. These papers are produced by specially formulated compositions and manufacturing procedures that make them particularly vulnerable to damage as well as reactive to solvents used in conservation treatments. In order to evaluate the effects of solvents on such papers, several research projects were designed to consider the variables of paper composition, properties, and aging, as well as type of solvent and technique of solvent application. This paper summarizes findings for materials characterization, degradative effects of aging, and some effects of solvents used for stain reduction, and humidification and flattening, of pigment-coated and modern tracing papers. Pigment-coated papers have been used, virtually since the beginning of papermaking history, for their special properties of gloss and brightness. These properties, however, may render coated papers more susceptible to certain types of damage (surface marring, embedded grime, and stains) and more reactive to certain conservation treatments. Several research projects have been undertaken to characterize paper coating compositions (by SEM/EDS and FTIR) and appearance properties (by SEM imaging of surface structure and quantitative measurements of color and gloss) in order to evaluate changes that might occur following application of solvents used in conservation treatments. -

Abstract Many manuscripts and historical books contain a form of deterioration known as foxing or fox spots, a brownish stain which has the effect of altering aesthetic and visual appeal. The aim of this work is to study the role of the extracts of Water Cantaloupe (CE) and Water melon (WE) separately as natural products in removing foxing spots in various modern and old papers. Old papers and three types of modern papers made from cotton, linen and a mixture of cotton, linen and wood (1:1:1) were used for this purpose. Each type was divided into two groups, one of them was infected with foxing and the other was left as control (uninfected). Infected papers were treated with CE, WE and 2% sodium hypochlorite (as a traditional chemical bleaching) separately. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy equipped with Energy-Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) in addition to some optical and mechanical properties were carried out to evaluate the Cantaloupe Extracts (CE) and Water Melon Extracts (WE) use in removing foxing stains compared to sodium hypochlorite. The results showed that CE removed foxing in different studied papers at pH = 7.4. -

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Due to advances in drug delivery technology, currently, excipients are included in novel dosage forms to fulfil specific functions and in some cases they directly or indirectly influence the extent and/or rate of drug release and drug absorption. Recent trends towards use of plant based and natural products demand the replacement of synthetic additives with natural ones. Today, the whole world is increasingly interested in natural drugs and excipients. These natural materials have many advantages over synthetic ones as they are chemically inert, nontoxic, less expensive, biodegradable, and widely available. This review discusses majority of the plant- derived polymeric compounds (gums and mucilage’s), their sources, chemical constituents, uses, and some recent investigations as excipients in novel drug delivery systems. 1.

Decco Communication on Shellac Resin
Decco Communication on Shellac Resin 1 BACKGROUND Some supermarkets in Australia have inquired about the quality of shellac resin used as an ingredient in apple wax coatings. Apple packers, who are EE Muir’s customers, have in turn asked EE Muir to provide documentation on the quality of shellac and manufacturing practices used by Decco. Below are a number of documents and explanations that Decco is providing to EE Muir in support of Decco’s quality and manufacturing practices. 2 WHAT IS NATURAL SHELLAC RESIN Shellac is a natural gum resin secreted by the lac beetle (laccifer lacca) which lives on trees in tropical and subtropical regions. The natural gum resin is harvested from the trees and then processed and refined into flakes and powders of pure natural shellac resin. 3 SHELLAC AND ITS USES Natural shellac resin has unique properties and is used in various applications such as: Fruit coatings, Confectionery (Candy & Chocolates coating), Pharmaceutical (Tablets coatings) as well as several non- food segments. Shellac is used as a 'wax' coating on citrus fruit to prolong its shelf/storage life. It is also used to replace the natural wax of the apple, which is removed during the cleaning & washing process. In these applications, the wax coating prevents moisture loss (shrinking, shriveling of the fruit) and preserves the textural and eating quality of the fruit. When used for this purpose, it has the food additive E number E904 which is recognized and adopted worldwide. Shellac is also used as a glazing agent on pills, food, chocolate & candies, in the form of pharmaceutical glaze or, confectioner's glaze.
