Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping of Flood Risk Zones in Ala River Basin Akure, NigeriaOlajire Olabanji Olatona, O.A. Obiora-Okeke, J.R. AdewumiFloods are water induced disasters that lead to temporary inundation of dry land and cause serious damages in the affected location such as loss of lives and properties and destruction of infrastructures. Nigeria has experienced a lot of flood incidences and the impact of flood has also increased due to population growth coupled with uncontrolled developmental practices. The result of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2018 · 9,248 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTYPICAL MEXICAN AGROINDUSTRIAL RESIDUES AS SUPPORTS FOR SOLID-STATE FERMENTATIONDulce A. Flores-Maltos, Solange I. Mussatto, Juan C. Contreras Esquivel et al.Biological wastes contain several reusable substances of high value such as soluble sugars and fiber. Direct disposal of such wastes to soil or landfill causes serious environmental problems. Thus, the development of potential value-added processes for these wastes is highly attractive. These biological wastes can be used as support-substrates in Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) to produce industrially relevant metabolites with great … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Characterization of Antibiotic-Producing Actinomycetes IsolatesMeera Kumari, Bat-Erdene Myagmarjav, Birendra Prasad, Madhusudan ChoudharyActinomycetes are a gram-positive, filamentous subgroup of bacteria most known for antibiotic production. In fact, most of the antibiotics available today have originated from actinomycetes, namely from the genus Streptomyces. Novel bacteria with antimicrobial activities have been discovered from bacterial screen studies for decades and there is still much more yet to be unearthed. One hundred seventy five strains of … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2013 · 15,441 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Extractants on the Yields and Selected Chemical Characteristics of Humic Acids Isolated from Tropical Saprists PeatLee Jia Huey, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Humic acids are beneficial to soil aggregation, binding of heavy metal, plant growth and many more. However, the isolation of Humic Acids (HA) from its origin is not only time-consuming, but the isolation is also affected by factors such as temperature and the types of extractants and their concentrations. Different concentrations of extractant are said to alter the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite
