Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractAn Artificial Design Technique to Optimize Signal PeptideGao Cui-Fang, Wang Sen, Tian Feng-Wei et al.To determine optimal artificial signal peptide candidates for the possibility of creating high levels of secretion of heterologous proteins, substitution and redesign of amino acid sequences in the H-domain of the signal peptide was theoretically attempted. The method was based on comprehensive score matrix and Markov transfer matrix, which can make the artificial sequences maintain the structural characteristics and original … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2017 · 8,069 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOne Can Slow Down the Aging through AntioxidantsRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion T. PetrescuFree radicals are natural nanoparticles which are doing their part well defined in the human cell, but then they must be annihilated or eliminated to not destroy the cell or another part of our body. It has been shown that residual free radicals in the body are responsible for the aging. The role to annihilate them is ful-filled by the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 Dec 2016 · 10,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk Assessment of Heavy Metals in Fish in Saudi ArabiaOthman M. HakamiHeavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, mercury and lead constitute a serious threat to human health. Generally, regular consumption of fish is recommended because it is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have been associated with health benefits. However, flesh of some fish species contains heavy metals in high concentration, which may pose health risk for individuals that … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 3 Dec 2016 · 8,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional Evaluation and Effectiveness of Detoxified Jatropha curcas Kernel Meal in Finishing Pig Diets on Biogas and Methane Production from SlurryBernardo Berenchtein, Adibe Luiz Abdalla, Patricia Pimentel Santos Righetto et al.The purpose of this work was to evaluate Phorbol Ester’s (PE), Total Fenols (TF), Total Tannins (TT), Condensed Tannins (CT), Saponins Content (SPN), amino acids profiles and apparent digestibility of detoxicated Jatropha curcas meal in finishing pigs diets, as well as biogas and methane production by the manure from cross-bred pigs fed this meal. Apparent digestibility coefficients of Dry Matter … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2016 · 7,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCarbon Dioxide Utilization for an Enhanced Biohydrogen Production of a Biomass HydrolysateAlma Negre Abug, Young Sook OhBio-hydrogen (H2) production in a thermophilic anaerobic bioreactor with carbon dioxide (CO2) utilization at the headspace was investigated at different ratio of Biomass substrate to Microorganism (B/M). A 3 mL volume of 80% NaOH (m/v) solution was continuously hung at the headspace of the bioreactors to capture carbon dioxide. The utilization of CO2 at its headspace, proved to enhance bio … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 9 Aug 2016 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel 2D Graphical Representation and its Application in the Similarities/Dissimilarities Analysis of Protein SequencesXianyou ZhuIn this study, a novel 2D graphical representation of protein sequences is proposed based on the physicochemical feature pK2 of amino acids first and then, on the basis of the newly given 2D graphical representation, a new concept of feature appearance model is introduced to analyze the similarity/dissimilarity of protein sequences. Finally, Theoretical and simulation results show that the newly … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2016 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Bioethanol Wastes as an Alternative Phosphorus Source for Snap Bean and Radish ProductionXiaolin Liao, Ben Hogue, Shouliang Zhu et al.Biorefinery waste has potential to provide alternative sources of phosphorus (P) for plant industry if biomass has been pretreated by phosphoric acids during its production process. In this study, we investigated the potential of the fermentation waste from a bioethanol process as a P fertilizer. Three treatments were set up for growing crops of snap bean (var., Bronco) and radish … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2016 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemotaxonomy of Indonesian Citrus maxima based on Leaf Essential OilsRatna Susandarini, Rugayah, Lauretius Hartanto Nugroho, Siti SubandiyahPummelo (Citrus maxima) is one of true citrus species originated from South East Asian regions. Pummelo is known as having high morphological diversity, but lacking of comprehensive publications documenting chemical diversity. The objectives of this study were to reveal essential oil diversity and its implication on the chemotaxonomy of the species. Leaves from forty individual plants were collected from seven … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2015 · 8,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractPolymerisation and Oxidation of Docosahexaenoic AcidBrian Mundell Ross, Shelly Lynn Browning, Adrian McKeeOils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linseed oil, can oxidise to form polymers. These can be used as protective coatings and act as an alternative to those derived from petrochemicals. Such renewable source oils usually require the addition of metal ions as catalysts of the polymerisation process and/or the partial pre-oxidation of the oil before use. We hypothesised … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2015 · 7,621 accessesView PDFCite
