Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Ammonia Loss from Urea by Mixing with Humic and Fulvic Acids Isolated from CoalAmeera Abdul Reeza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Nik Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: Ammonia volatilization is a major pathway for nitrogen loss from surface applied urea. While all top-dressed ammonia and ammonium based N fertilizers can volatilize, the potential loss is greatest with urea and fluids containing urea. As much as 20-50% of N applied to soils is lost through volatilization alone. Thus, the objective of this laboratory study was to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Excess Oxygen to Mixture on the Gasses Emissions of a Gasoline EngineWaleed MomaniProblem statement: The effects of excess feeding oxygen to the fuel-air mixture on the exhausts gasses emissions concentrations are investigated here. It is known that spark-ignition and diesel engines are considered as major sources of urban air pollution; such pollutants are CO2, CO, HC. Hence, many techniques have been used to decrease such emissions such as: Catalytic converters, oxidizers, traps … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerspectives of Solid State Fermentation for Production of Food EnzymesCristobal Noe Aguilar, Gerardo Gutiérrez-Sánchez, PLilia A. rado-Barragán et al.Food industry represents one of the economic sectors where microbial metabolites have found a wide variety of applications. This is the case of some enzymes, such as amylases, cellulases, pectinases and proteases which have played a very important role as food additives. Most of these enzymes have been produced by submerged cultures at industrial level. Many works in the literature … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Certain Tetracyclines and Oxytetracyclines through Charge Transfer ComplexationKhairi M.S. FahelelbomProblem statement: Several studies were carried out to develop and validate a simple, rapid and accurate spectrophotometric method for the analysis of tetracycline (TC) and oxytetracycline (OTC) in the pure form and in pharmaceutical dosage forms, despite the varieties of these analytical techniques, the literature revealed that no spectrophotometric method for determination of tetracycline and oxytetracycline using charge transfer complexation … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Rheological Properties of Bio Mastic AsphaltR. Muniandy, H. Jafariahangari, R. Yunus, S. HassimDue to the high oil prices the price of asphalt binder has increased tremendously. This scenario has warranted demand for higher viscosity cheaper asphalt for pavement construction. A study was conducted to take advantage of the Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) of Date and Oil Palm trees (which are considered as waste) to produce cellulose fiber to be used as additives … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeparation of Guanine and Hypoxanthine with Some Ionic Liquids in RP-HPLCJ. Zheng, K. H. RowIn this paper, guanine and hypoxanthine were separated with four different ionic liquids as additives for the mobile phase using reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The ionic liquids, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIm][BF4]), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIm][BF4]), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([EMIm][MS]) and 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([OMIm][MS]) were used. Guanine and hypoxanthine couldn’t be separated with many different kinds of unadjusted mobile phase, such … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
