Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPresence and Origin of Fluoride in the Complex Terminal Water of Ouargla Basin (Northern Sahara of Algeria)Imed Eddine Nezli, Samia Achour, Mohamed Djidel, Saïd AttalahProblem statement: The underground waters in the oriental regions of the Algerian Sahara, present real chemical quality problems. Their content in fluorides always exceeds the limit of the recommended levels. That is 0.8 mg L-1, according to the maximum temperature in the region. Combined to a high salinity, it affects the health of the population living around the region. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,677 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Landfill Leachate TreatmentsAbdulhussain A. Abbas, Guo Jingsong, Liu Zhi Ping et al.Problem Statement: Sanitary landfilling is the most common way to eliminate solid urban wastes. An important problem associated to landfills is the production of leachates. This study is a review of landfill leachate treatments. Approach: The advantages and disadvantages of the various existing leachate treatments discussed under the items: (i) Leachate channeling (combined treatment with domestic sewage, recycling) (ii) Biological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 13,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSerological Evaluation of Brucella abortus S99 Lipopolysaccharide Extracted by an Optimized MethodAli Sharifat Salmani, Seyed Davar Siadat, Mohammad Reza Fallahian et al.Problem statement: Brucellosis is a globally found infectious disease and there is no licensed vaccine against human brucellosis. The present study carried-out to evaluate the potency of our modified extracted lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of B. abortus to elicit specific anti-Brucella antibodies in animal model (Rabbit) as a part of a candidate vaccine for brucellosis. Lipopolysaccharide is one of the main virulence … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Partial Orientation in [100] Direction on the Magnetic Properties of Co-Ferrite Prepared from Nano ParticlesH. M. El-SayedChemical co-precipitation method was used for the preparation of Co-ferrite nano particles. The particle size was about 18 nm. A magnetic anisotropy of Co-ferrite could be increased by applying an external magnetic field during the pressing of the nano particles before the final sintering. This anisotropy enhanced the squareness and the coercivity of investigated samples. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution to the Study of the Origin of Salinity in Alluvial Aquifer System in the Ain chabro-Hammamet (North-East ALGERIA)K. Seghir, N. KhériciTebessa is located in the Algerian North East. It is characterized by a semi-arid continental climate with an average interannual precipitation of less than 400 mm. It belongs to the Eastern Saharian Atlas field along the Tunisian borders. It is drained by a certain number of the wouady of which Chabro and Bouakous are the most important. The surface area … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Molecular Chaperone, Alpha-Crystallin, on the Heat-Induced Aggregation of Beta-lactoglobulinArezou GhahghaeiAggregation of beta-lactoglobulin occurs mainly via intermolecular disulphide bond exchange. Upon heating, beta-lactoglobulin aggregated which increased with increasing pH. The presence of DTT led to more rapid aggregation and precipitation of beta-lactoglobulin. Alpha-Crystallin prevented the aggregation of heat-stressed beta-lactoglobulin and was a more efficient chaperone at higher pH values. In the presence of DTT, however, alpha-crystallin was a less efficient … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModels for Mixed Ensemble of Hydrometeors and their Use in Calculating the Total Random Cross Section of a Resolution Volume Filled by Random ScatterersAyman Al-Lawama, Salaheddin Malkawi, Abdullah Al-Odienat, Felix YanovskyFlight safety is of a major concern in aircrafts since the beginning of air traffic. One of the problems threatening the safety is the in-flight icing of the aircraft. This research deals with a problem arises in the context of weather aviation maintenance. Methods of aircraft icing are based on the difference in behavior of the polarization of radar signal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,807 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Modeling for Flood Hazard Mapping Using Watershed Modeling SystemSeyedeh S. Sadrolashrafi, Thamer A. Mohamed, Ahmad R.B. Mahmud et al.In this stduy, a new framework which integrates the Geographic Information System (GIS) with the Watershed Modeling System (WMS) for flood modeling is developed. It also interconnects the terrain models and the GIS software, with commercial standard hydrological and hydraulic models, including HEC-1, HEC-RAS, etc. The Dez River Basin (about 16213 km2) in Khuzestan province, IRAN, is domain of study … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 10,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAT1-IR-beta Association: A New Mechanism for the Inhibition of Insulin Receptor Function in Breast CancerLakshmi Pulakat, Ravindra Kolhe, Nara GaviniEpidemiological evidence show that increased mortality in breast cancer is linked to hypertension and insulin resistance. Because Angiotensin II (Ang II), a hormone implicated in hypertension and insulin resistance, is a normal mitogen for breast tissue and elevated expression of the Ang II receptor AT1 is seen in breast cancer, we analyzed the effects of Ang II exposure on the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,019 accessesView PDFCite
