Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTUDY OF PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SURFACE AND GROUND WATERA.Y. Al-Ghamdi, Mohamed El-Shahate Ismaiel Saraya, A.O. Al-Ghamdi, S.A. ZabinOf all the natural resources, water is unarguably the most essential and precious. Life began in water and life is nurtured by water. Ninety seven percent of the world’s water is found in oceans. Only 2.5% of the world’s water are non-saline fresh water. Saudi Arabia is a desert country with no permanent rivers or lakes and very little rainfall. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 18 Apr 2014 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI-TRAITS OF NON-PATHOGENIC FLUORESCENT PSEUDOMONAS AND EVALUATION OF THEIR POTENTIEL AS BIOCONTROL AGENTSMehri Inès, Turki Yousra, Ben Rajeb Asma et al.In recent years, certain strains of fluorescent pseudomonads called PGPB have drawn attention due to their abilities to promote plant growth. Therefore, in this investigation, we have explored the adhesive properties, the phytostimulator effects and the biocontrol activities of 40 isolates, with the aim to select potential inoculants to improve crop yields. Ten different colony morphotypes were detected on CRA … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF CORNWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) generally occurs in soils as the anions H2PO4- or HPO4-2 depending on soil pH. These anions readily react with soil cations such as calcium, magnesium, iron and aluminum to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Crop recovery of applied phosphate fertilizer can be quite low during the season of application. In addition, the large amounts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical and Hematological Alterations in Mice Inoculated with Outer Membrane Protein, Lipopolysaccharides and Whole Cells of Pasteurella multocida Type B: 2Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Abdinasir Yusuf Osman et al.Haemorrhagic septicaemia in cattle and buffaloes is an economically important livestock disease in Asia including Malaysia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the biochemical and hematological alterations in mice model inoculated with outer membrane protein, lipopolysaccharides and whole cells of Pasteurella multocida type B: 2. Two hundred healthy male mice of eight to ten weeks old were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Sep 2013 · 7,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Fetuin-A and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus as a Predictor Marker for AtherosclerosisOsama F. Mosa, Ibrahim H. Mohamad, Magdi M. SalamaProblem statement: Associations between serum levels of fetuin-A, C3 complement, calcium × phosphate product and calcification risk index and lipid profile in SLE patients were established. However, the mechanism of accelerated atherosclerosis accompanied with SLE remains elusive. We therefore turned to investigate the association between Fetuin-A, disease activity and accelerated atherosclerosis in patients with SLE. Approach: Serum blood samples were … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 15 Sep 2012 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,202 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Bioactivity of Sol Gel Derived 3Y-TZP Bioinert Ceramic through Hydroxylation Technique Using 5M H3PO4R. Velmurugan, S. Kanagesan, S. Jesurani, T. KalaivaniProblem statement: This study presented bone like apatite formation on yttria stabilized zirconia in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) through hydroxylation technique. Approach: Sol gel route was used to prepare yttria stabilized zirconia. Then it was hydroxylated with 5M H3PO4 for formation of Zr-OH group. Moreover, the growth rate of calcium and phosphate on zirconia substrate was examined using simulated body … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Pollution Hazards of Shallow Well Water in Abeokuta and Environs, Southwest, NigeriaE. O. Orebiyi, J. A. Awomeso, O. A. Idowu et al.Problem statement: Pollution of well water, either from point or non-point sources, has become a thing of health concern both in urban and rural areas. Approach: This study aim at assessing the pollution hazards of groundwater resource by sampling some shallow wells from urban and peri-urban area of Abeokuta. Collected samples were analyzed for water quality parameters using standard procedures. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanocrystalline Powders of Alkaline-Earth Phosphates as Precursors for BioceramicsParhi Purnendu, A. Ramanan, Alok R. RayBone is a nanocomposite made of calcium phosphates and collagen. Collagen has a typical fibrous structure, with diameter ranging from 100 nm to 2 μm. It is suggested that calcium hydroxyapatite, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 in the size range 5-50 nm embedded in the collagen framework provides mechanical strength to bone. Among calcium phosphates, apatites are found to be the most suitable for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,543 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanoceramic Matrices: Biomedical ApplicationsWilli Paul, Chandra P. SharmaNatural bone consisted of calcium phosphate with nanometer-sized needle-like crystals of approximately 5-20 nm width by 60 nm length. Synthetic calcium phosphates and Bioglass are biocompatible and bioactive as they bond to bone and enhance bone tissue formation. This property is attributed to their similarity with the mineral phase of natural bone except its constituent particle size. Calcium phosphate ceramics … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
