Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractPolymerisation and Oxidation of Docosahexaenoic AcidBrian Mundell Ross, Shelly Lynn Browning, Adrian McKeeOils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linseed oil, can oxidise to form polymers. These can be used as protective coatings and act as an alternative to those derived from petrochemicals. Such renewable source oils usually require the addition of metal ions as catalysts of the polymerisation process and/or the partial pre-oxidation of the oil before use. We hypothesised … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2015 · 7,621 accessesView PDFCite

We … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 12 · 10 Dec 2015 · 6,646 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractCommentary-How do we Improve Training for Receptor Research?Marilee Ann BenoreThis issue of the American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology features articles about receptor-ligand interactions that are critical to the wellbeing of all living organisms. The importance of the field of receptor research is supported by the large number of articles published in journals, the numerous specialty journals, the international conferences and the percentage of legal drugs on the market … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Dec 2015 · 8,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Sequence Analysis, Structure Prediction and Function Annotation of Melanocortin 1 Receptor Gene (MC1R) from the Guppy Poecilia reticulataAbdul Khader Sultan Mohideen, Mehboob Asrar Sheriff, Kareem AltaffThe common guppy, Poecilia reticulata is one of the most popular aquarium fish used as a model organism in toxicology, embryology and genetical studies. Vibrant colors in males are a secondary sexual character which attracts the females for mating. Pigmentation in guppy is found to be linked with melanin synthesis. Melanocortin genes are involved in the synthesis of melanin pigments. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 17 Nov 2015 · 8,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupercritical CO2 Extraction of Heavy Metals Cu, Zn and Cd from Aqueous Solution using D ithizone as Chelating AgentJeton Halili, Altin Mele, Tahir Arbneshi, Ilir MazrekuMetal ions in liquid samples can be extracted by supercritical CO2, containing a suitable ligand. This paper presents the first experimental data for the extraction of three heavy metals Cu, Zn and Cd from aqueous samples in the presence of Dithizone as chelating agent. Extractions by supercritical CO2 have been performed at 120 bars with 50°C used dynamic technique. After … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 22 Jun 2015 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Copper from Aqueous Solution using Tunisian ClayN. Boujelben, S. Gharab, F. Bouhamed et al.Natural adsorbents such as clay was used to replace expensive imported synthetic adsorbents. In this study, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the used sorbent (clays C). Batch experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of contact time, solution pH and temperature on copper removal onto used sorbent from aqueous solution. Equilibrium … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeposition and Characterization of CdS Nano Thin Film with Complexing Agent TriethanolamineK. Manikandan, C. Surendra Dilip, P. Mani, J. Joseph PrinceThe equimolar concentration thin films of Cadmium Sulfide (CdxSx) with the complexing agent TEA were deposited on a glass substrate by the SILAR technique. The crystalline nature with face centered cubic crystal system of the CdS films is determined from X-ray diffraction analysis. The broadened diffraction peaks indicated nano sized particles of the film materials. The surface morphology of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 1 Jun 2015 · 8,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Degrading Calcium Phosphate on the Remodelling and Mineralisation of Avascular Osseous Tissue in a Rat Calvaria ModelTulio Fernandez, Carlos H. Valencia, Yuann Li et al.Artificial bone graftingis the subject of intensive investigation for craniofacial reconstruction. Among the syntheticcandi date materials, those incorporating Calcium Phosphates (CaP) have gained popularity, due to their osteoinductive properties. Despite many quantitative studies on the degradation rates of CaP biomaterials in vitro, there is lack of quantitative studies in relation to bone remodelling kinetics in vivo. In this investigation, we … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,210 accessesView PDFCite
