Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Laminated Glass with Stiff Interlayers – Numerical and Experimental ResearchJulian Hänig, Paulina Bukieda, Michael Engelmann et al.Glass is a linear-elastic and isotropic building material which allows for a quick calculation of internal forces and stress in the design stage. However, in safety applications, e.g. overhead glazing or balustrades, it is made into laminated glass using plastic interlayers. Their material properties change over time and are temperature-dependent. Additionally, larger spans and the demand to reduce the amount … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2019 · 13,559 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Plant Species Suitability for a Substrate-Free Tropical Green RoofBruno R. Silva, André Mantovani, Dulce G. Mantuano et al.Greenroofs reduce building exterior-interior thermal flux and mitigate high internal air temperatures, especially in tropical climates. Tropical greenroofs are given little attention and their use remains restricted to a very low percentage of roofs due to high costs compared to traditional roofs, weight overload (mainly due to the chosen substrate) and potential waterproofing problems. We here present an alternative greenroof … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 11 Oct 2018 · 7,523 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of three Cutting Ways on the Quality of Fresh-Cut Green Pepper During Room Temperature StorageYue Yang, Shuai Han, Huitao Gao, Hongfang CaiFresh-cut (FC) pepper is favored by consumers all over the world for its convenience, freshness and nutritional value. Previous studies have mostly focused on the influence of preservation approaches on microorganism and quality control of fresh-cut green peppers. Yet, there have been few studies on how the cutting ways affect the quality and antioxidant ability of FC green peppers during … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 22 Aug 2024 · 4,787 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterologous Expression and Biochemical Characterization of Lipase from Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1Yao Zhang, Lu Wang, Yuanda SongEven though lipase genes from a variety of microorganism have been cloned and over-expressed, the prospective lipase resources for commercial production and industry application are still limited. In the present study, a lipase from Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1 is heterologously over-expressed in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) and purified to homogeneity. The molecular weight of the recombinant lipase from B. cepacia Lu10-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2017 · 8,765 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFermented Green Vegetable Soybean Meal Increases Dressed Carcass Meat and Bone Weight in Black-Boned Chickens (Fah Luang Chicken, Gallus gallus)Sukit Khantaprab, Buaream Maneewan, Tonglian Buwjoom et al.To use effectively waste green vegetable soyabean (edamame) and to improve the dressed carcass meat in black-boned chickens (Fah Luang chicken, Gallus gallus), fermented edamame meal was fed to black-boned chickens from 4 to 16 weeks of age. At 4 weeks of age, 20 birds (10 male and 10 female birds) were used to measure the initial weights of dressed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 8,524 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSomatic Embryogenesis of Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) from Bud Explants Using Suspension CultureNurul Huda Panggabean, Isnaini Nurwahyuni et al.The propagation of oil palm seeds through tissue culture and somatic embryogenesis is a preferred method due to its ability to produce entire plants without the need for gamete fusion. While somatic embryo proliferation is typically performed on solid media, this approach is less efficient than liquid media, which is both more cost-effective and can lead to better proliferation results. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 4 May 2023 · 5,863 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Permeable Reactive Barriers to Remediate Heavy Metal-Contaminated Groundwater through a Laboratory Column ExperimentSomean Yin, Gemunu Herath, Sokchhay Heng, Senajith KalpageRecently, groundwater sources are being polluted by various activities such as agriculture, livestock, decentralized wastewater treatment systems and acid rain. Groundwater can also be polluted by landfill leachate, sewage, mine tailings, non-engineered deep well disposal of liquid waste and seepage from industrial waste lagoons. There are many studies reported contaminated groundwater remediation using Permeable Reactive Barrier systems (PRBs) and many … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2017 · 8,761 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 9,521 accessesView PDF Cite
