Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in the Rumen Papillae During the Periparturient Transition in Holstein Dairy Cows are Accompanied by Changes in Abundance of Proteins Involved in Intracellular pH Regulation, But not SCFA TransportAnne Hermen Laarman, Adam Kleinberg, Michael Alexander Steele et al.The objective of this study was to examine changes in SCFA transport capacity in the rumen epithelium during the parturition transition period. Twelve pregnant, cannulated primiparous and multiparous cows were fed a standard Total Mixed Ration (TMR) for the duration of the dry period; after calving, all cows were switched to an early lactation TMR. Rumen pH, fluid and biopsies … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2015 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINVESTIGATION OF THE GROUNDWATER SUITABILITY FOR IRRIGATION PRACTICES IN AN ARID REGION: CASE STUDYAhmed MuradGroundwater is an important source of acceptable water for irrigation in the arid regions and in particular in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Demand for groundwater is increasing in the UAE due to population growth and significant economic advancement associated with political stability. As agricultural practices are the main land use in Al Hayer area, southeast UAE, majority of extracted … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2014 · 7,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbolishing Toxicity of Copper by Some Environmental Factors Using Green Alga Chlorella vulgarisAdel A. Fathi, Mohamed M. Azooz, Mohamed A. Al-FredanA variety of environmental factors are known to modify the toxicity of heavy metals on algae. This study was undertaken to examine the impact of some inorganic and organic complexes on the toxicity of copper using the isolated algal species (Chlorella vulgaris). The data illustrate that the amount of available forms of copper (copper free ions) gradually decreased with increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 2 Jan 2013 · 6,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of L-Carnitine and Cinnamon Extract Treatment on Lens Crystallins of Rats Fed High Fructose DietMohamed H. Mahfouz, Amany Abd El-Ghaffar, Mona A. Mohamed, Hala M. GhanemProblem statement: Rats fed high dietary fructose are documented to form an acquired model of insulin resistance; the present study aims to investigate possible changes in lens crystallins of rats fed high fructose diet and the effects of administration of each exogenous L-Carnitine (CA) and Cinnamon Extract (CE) on protein glycation, oxidative stress and redox homeostasis in this rat model. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 3 Aug 2011 · 8,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Modification of Polystyrene Beads by Ultraviolet/Ozone Treatment and its Effect on Gelatin CoatingA. N. Yusilawati, M. Maizirwan, M. S. Hamzah et al.Problem statement: Polystyrene failed to provide any reactive functionality of surface hydrophilicity that is capable of binding proteins. It is known that polystyrene must be chemically modified to make its surface amenable to covalent crosslinking with protein. Approach: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of UV/ozone treatment on gelatin coating. The surfaces of microsize polystyrene beads … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFull Scale Tests of Short-Term Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Bottom Ash Weathering Before Landfill DisposalFranco Marchese, Giuseppe GenonProblem statement: Natural weathering is the most economic method of treatment in order to reduce the release of heavy metals present in the residue. Approach: The aim of the study was to optimize the minimum weathering times that were useful to reduce the lead release to within the Italian limits for landfill disposal. The mechanism of short-term weathering of MSWI … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
