Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn Vitro Metabolism Studies of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers Using Rat and Human Liver MicrosomesShun Wen Cheng, Kathleen Randall, Anne T. KotchevarA number of studies have recently reported the bioaccumulation of the commonly used fire retardants, Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs), in humans and wildlife. Exposure of animals to PBDEs has been shown to result in developmental neurological, reproductive abnormalities and the disruption of endocrine function. Thyroid hormone equilibria was also shown to be altered by PBDE exposure. There is evidence that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Characterization of Banana (AA) Diploids with Contrasting Levels of Black and Yellow Sigatoka ResistanceClaudia Fortes Ferreira, Sebastiao Oliveira Silva, Nivia Paula Damasceno Sobrinho et al.Most banana cultivars are susceptible to many diseases, whereas Sigatoka leads to greatest yield losses. One of the strategies to overcome this disease is thorough banana genetic breeding which consists in the obtainment of improved (AA) diploids which are then crossed with triploids obtaining (AAAB) tetraploid disease resistant bananas also presenting other important agronomic characteristics. The prior knowledge of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Diplotypes Associated with Meat Productivity in Cattle Breeds Common in the Territory of the Republic of KazakhstanAskar Mirzahmetovich Nametov, Indira Saltanovna Beishova, Alena Valentinovna Belaya et al.Technologies for genetic labeling of economically useful traits using polymorphic variants of genes that control the rate of growth and development of animals make it possible to assess the genetic potential of an animal immediately after birth, which significantly reduces time and financial costs. This study aimed to identify paired combinations of the genes growth hormone, growth hormone receptor, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 17 Aug 2022 · 6,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleELISA-Based Development of Functional Antibodies for the Efficient Detection of Mycotoxigenic Fusarium (F. oxysporum and F. circinatum) and Diplodia (D. pinea) SpeciesPhumzile Mkhize, Phetole MangenaFusarium contains the most toxigenic and important fungal pathogens, producing a wide range of mycotoxins that include the more toxic secondary metabolites called fumonisins. This study analyzed the presence of common exo- and mycelium-soluble antigens, purified proteins using reducing SDS-PAGE and the expression of antibodies against different fungal pathogens. The results showed the presence of common antigens between pathogens and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 18 Nov 2020 · 6,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effectiveness of Organotin (IV) Benzylisopropyldithiocarbamate Compounds as Insecticide Against Aedes Aegypti Linn (Diptera: Culicidae) in LaboratoryHidayatulfathi Othman, Nor Atikah Kosnon, Normah Awang, Nurul Farahana KamaludinProblem statement: The widespread use of insecticides had resulted in insecticide resistance of vectors of dengue as well as polluting the environment. Organotin (IV) compounds had the potential to be developed as the insecticides to overcome the existing problem. Approach: The aim of this study was to examine the insecticidal effects which were larvicidal and adulticidal effects of organotin (IV) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 25 Jun 2012 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessing Soil Biological Properties of Natural and Planted Forests in the Malaysian Tropical Lowland Dipterocarp ForestDaljit Singh Karam, Arifin Abdu, O. Radziah et al.Problem statement: A study was conducted to evaluate and compare the soil biological properties of a natural forest and an 18-year-old stand of Shorea leprosula in Chikus Forest Reserve, Perak, Malaysia. Approach: Soils were sampled at depths of 0-15 cm (topsoil) and 15-30 cm (subsoil) in six subplots (20×20 m) of natural forest (C1) and of a planted S. leprosula … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreliminary Study of Phylogenetic Relationship of Rice Field Chironomidae (Diptera) Inferred From DNA Sequences of Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit ISalman A. Al-Shami, M.N. Siti Azizah, Che Salmah Md Rawi, Abu Hassan AhmadProblem statement: Chironomidae have been recorded in rice fields throughout the world including in many countries such as India, Australia and the USA. Although some studies provide the key to genera level and note the difficulty of identifying the larvae to species level. Chironomid researches have been hindered because of difficulties in specimen preparation, identification, morphology and literature. Systematics, phylogenetics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of Mutual Coupling of Typical Commercial UHF RFID Tags in a High-Density EnvironmentGbamélé Konan Fernand, Akpata Edouard, Assamoi Claude Daniel et al.In the context of high-density passive UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag technology, the problem of mutual coupling has to be taken into account as one of the performance criteria of UHF RFID systems. In practical applications, mutual coupling changes the intrinsic parameters of the antennas attached to these tags, i.e., the impedance matching of the antenna … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 14 Oct 2022 · 6,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Bidispersed Model System and Binary System for FerrofluidsJian Li, Decai LiFerrofluids, dispersions of magnetic nanoparticles, are typical dipolar fluids whose behaviors can be modified using an external magnetic field. Such magnetically controlled effects result from interactions between the magnetic particles, which are enhanced by an applied magnetic field. Since the system of particles always possesses a size distribution, real ferrofluids represent a polydispersed system. A theoretical model of a bidispersed … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2013 · 6,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAntioxidant Potential in Lipophilic and Hydrophilic Extracts from Medicinal Herbs (Salvia officinalis and Echinacea angustifolia). A Comparison Between Assays Based on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and SpectrophotometryFlavia Navari-Izzo, Riccardo Izzo, Mike F. Quartacci et al.Recently, detection of antioxidant activity of plant extracts has caught the attention of researchers. Determination of antioxidant activity is usually performed using stable free radicals. A number of assays is available for screening the antioxidant activity of food constituents, but few of these methods are applicable to lipophilic substances. EPR is the analytical technique that directly measures free radicals making … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2012 · 9,008 accessesView PDFCite
