Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Durbin Model to Identify Influential Factors of DiarrheaRokhana Dwi Bekti, SutiknoProblem statement: An analysis of regression modeling which influenced by the characteristics of the region is very important. That modeling is the spatial autoregressive model. One type of spatial autoregressive model is a Spatial Durbin Model (SDM), which performs a lag effect of the dependent and independent variables. This model was developed because the dependencies in the spatial relationships doesn’t … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2012 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe 100-Days Oral Toxicity of Tomato Pomace in Healthy MiceWathita Phachonpai, Supaporn Muchimapura, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn et al.Problem statement: Growing attention is being paid to functional food. The beneficial effect of functional food appears to relate to its bioactive ingredient such as substances containing antioxidant. Therefore, the information about the toxicity of the substances is very much essential to recommend the safety for the substances implication in both clinical and application trials. Herein, we have investigated for … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 23 May 2012 · 7,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlive Wastewaters' Impact on Oued Boufekrane in Meknes-TafilaletMajdouline Larif, Abdelmajid Soulaymani, Mohammed Hnach, Azzedine ElmidaouiProblem statement: Water quality of river Boufekrane is subject to heavy pollution exerted by population growth and industrial activity, including the OMW from the olive industry in which the presence of polyphenols and toxic effect dominant character may generate a higher organic pollution. Approach: Our objective is to "study the impact of OMW by analyzing the physicochemical parameters on seven … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Apr 2012 · 7,519 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLocalization of the Dissimilatory Arsenate Reductase in Sulfurospirillum Barnesii Strain SeS-3Eman AfkarProblem statement: Sulfurospirillim barnesii strain SeS-3 is one of the recently known bacterial isolates that can obtain energy to support growth by respiring the toxic oxyanions of arsenic and selenium under anaerobic conditions. Approach: The ultimate goal of this investigation is to localize the active sites for the reduction of arsenate arsenite as well as selenate selenite in S. barnesii … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistorical Changes in Polychlorinated Biphenyls Contaminated SedimentsViet D. Dang, David M. Walters, Cindy M. LeeProblem statement: PCBs contamination continues to pose a health risk to aquatic environments due to their recalcitrance and bioaccumulation. The Sangamo Weston/Twelvemile Creek/Lake Hartwell Superfund Site is an example of such a health risk as a result of PCBs discharged from a former capacitor manufacturing plant. We conducted a study in twelvemile creek (Clemson, SC, USA) to examine the temporal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2012 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Lead in Human Teeth by Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption SpectrometryHassan T. AbdulsahibProblem statement: The determination of lead in human teeth at concentration levels of μg/ml is proposed using Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (HG-AAS). To do this, 2% (wv) lanthanum chloride solution was employed as matrix modifying reagent to increase sensitivity and remove matrix interferences. Approach: About 100 μL of sample and 100 μL of 3.0% (m/v) NaBH4 are simultaneously injected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2011 · 7,136 accessesView PDFCite
