Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Adsorption of the Lead (II) by the Nonliving Biomass Spirogyra neglecta (Hasall) KutzingModher A. Hussain, Aishah Salleh, Pozi MilowProblem statement: Conventional techniques for removing dissolved heavy metals are only practical and cost-effective when applied to high strength wastes with heavy metal ion concentrations greater than 100 ppm. The possibility of using a nonliving algal biomass to solve this problem was carried in this study. Lead (II) was used in this study because it had been reported to cause … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWastewater Treatment Using Horizontal Subsurface Flow Constructed WetlandS. Sarafraz, Thamer Ahamad Mohammad, Megat J. Megat M. Noor, A. LiaghatThe last few decades witnessed sharp focus on environment pollution and its impact on life in nature. Wetlands can be used for biological treatment of wastewater. Problem statement: Scarcity of water is considered as a global problem and Iran is one the countries which is facing water shortage problem. Pollution of water bodies restrict the availability of water for various … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Putative Serine protease from Larval Midgut of Red Palm Weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Partial Purification and Biochemical CharacterizationAhmed Al Jabr, Mahmoud Abo-El-SaadA putative serine protease was isolated and partially purified from larval midgut of red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) using anion exchange chromatography, DE-52. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of this protease showed that the major band has a molecular weight of approximately 24 kDa corresponding to the same molecular weight of mammalian trypsin. In addition, zymography … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Twelve Dielectric Moisture Probes for Soil Water Measurement under Saline ConditionsM. Inoue, B.A. Ould Ahmed, T. Saito, M. IrshadRecently the research on the determination of soil water content and electrical conductivity using automated technique has received tremendous attention. Selecting the type of system that should be used for soil water measurement under saline conditions depends on its precision. A laboratory study was carried out to measure the soil water content (θ) and soil solution electrical conductivity (ECw) using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Assessment of Ambient Air Quality in Rabia Area for Years 2001 and 2004 in the State of KuwaitBader N. Al-Azmi, V. Nassehi, A. R. KhanThe hourly air pollutants concentrations were measured continuously by fixed ambient air stations located over the polyclinics in Rabia area in Capital Governorate in the State of Kuwait. The focus of this investigation is to determine the pollution levels of SO2, NO2 and O3 in year 2001 and 2004 to assess the pollution trends. The recorded data are used in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 7,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHIV-1 Infection and Central Monoamine NeurotransmittersAdarsh M. Kumar, J. B. Fernandez, Irina Borodowsky et al.Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) enters the central nervous system (CNS) shortly after infection and gets localized in different brain regions, leading to various types of neuropathological problems. It has been hypothesized that HIV-1 infection mediated neuropathogenesis may also adversely affect the activity of the central monoamine neurotransmitters systems, such as dopamine (DA), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin), resulting in … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) On The Corrosion Resistance of Industrial and Laboratory Zinc CoatingsY. Hamlaoui, F. Pedraza, L. TifoutiIn this work, corrosion monitoring of Zn-based coatings is investigated through potentiodynamic and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The first part of the study is devoted to galvanised coatings conventionally manufactured in the industry. The second part focuses on the corrosion resistance of a laboratory-made electrolytic coating. For such purpose, the corrosion behaviour is studied in NaCl media under various … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpectrometric Methods Used to Determine Heavy Metals and Total Cyanides in Accidental Polluted SoilsA. Mihaly-Cozmuta, L. Mihal Cozmuta, V. Viman et al.The study presents the level of soil pollution in the area adjacent to three sedimentation ponds as a result of an environmental accident. Soil samples from various sites have been collected and analyzed to determine the concentration of heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn) and total cyanides. The analysis methods used were ICP-AES for heavy metals and the colorimetric for total … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffects of Purified Tick Saliva Toxins on Various Bio-Molecules in Blood Serum, Liver and Muscles of Albino MiceNidhi Yadav, Ravi Kant UpadhyayIn the present study, salivary toxins from Rhipicephalus microplus were isolated and purified on a Sepharose CL 6B 200 gel column at a constant flow rate with regular fractions of 5 mL/min. Pooled fractions were lyophilized and LD50 was then determined in albino mice. The LD50 value of the protein toxin of Rhipicephalus microplus was found 36.11 mg/kg body weight … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 30 Dec 2023 · 5,358 accessesView PDFCite
