Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Identification and Quantification of Marine Fish from Environmental DNA in Sulawesi Waters (Makassar Strait, Flores Sea and Bone Bay), IndonesiaNita Rukminasari, Andi Aliah Hidayani, Wilma Joanna Carolina Moka et al.The emergence of environmental DNA (eDNA) represents a recent methodological breakthrough for evaluating the presence of aquatic vertebrate species. This approach offers a relatively simple method with significant implications for conservation biology. Our study aim was to augment our understanding of marine fish biodiversity in Sulawesi waters. We employed eDNA metabarcoding to investigate fish biodiversity within Sulawesi waters, specifically focusing … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 5 Jul 2024 · 5,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWater Characteristics Assessment, Bioaccumulation and Health Risk Evaluation of Possible Ingestion of Toxic and Essential Metals in Chromidotilapia guntheri Sourced from Ada River, West AfricaTunde Ohiokhioya Thaddeus Imoobe, Eugene Iragboghie Okhakhu, Osikemekha Anthony AnaniThe water ecosystem has been acclaimed to be polluted with various chemicals that may pose possible risks to the biota therein and affect the end consumers who ingest them via the food chain system. This study evaluates the water characteristics, bioaccumulation and non-carcinogenic risk potentials in the ingestion of toxic metals like (Cu, Fe, Zn, Mn and Pb) in Chromidotilapia … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2024 · 4,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Various Combinations of Aging and Freezing/Defrosting Modes on the Quality Indicators of Saanen Goat MeatUrishbay Chomanov, Gulmira Kenenbay, Alibek Tursynov et al.The paper evaluates the effect of various combinations of aging and freezing/defrosting on the water-holding capacity (drip loss, purge loss, and cook loss) and tenderness of four types of goat meat muscles (M. longissimus dorsi, M. latisimus dorsi, M. Semimembranosus, M. gluteobiceps). Samples obtained from 35 goat carcasses after five weeks of storage under different conditions were studied: (1) Aging … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 24 Aug 2023 · 5,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoupling Analysis of Thermodynamic Equilibrium of Mass Transfer and Microbial Community Succession in Multiphase System of Dark Tea Solid-State FermentationZhanjun Liu, Jiawei Sun, Taotao Li et al.During the solid-state fermentation of dark tea, the limited material migration, the dynamic evolution of the thermodynamic equilibrium state, and the highly dynamic succession of the microbial community make it difficult to analyze the quality formation mechanism systematically. Traditional research has focused on microbial diversity or sensory quality analysis, lacking a systematic discussion on the regulatory effects of material migration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 1,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnveiling the Potential of Dombeya buettneri K.Schum As a Drug Agent: Molecular Docking of Compounds With Enzymes Linked to Diabetes and Neurodegenerative DiseaseEsther Emem Nwanna, Samuel Chima Ugbaja et al.This study investigated the mechanisms of Dombeya buettneri (snowball leafy) extracts on diabetes, hypertension, and neurodegenerative diseases. It compared extracts obtained using steep water (a by-product of corn wet milling) and aqueous water. The extracts were analyzed for total phenol, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activities such as FRAP, ABTS, NO, DPPH, iron-induced lipid peroxidation assay, degradation of deoxyribose (Fenton’s reaction), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2026 · 2,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntifungal Activity of Jatropha Curcas Linn on Candida Albicans and Candida Tropicalis Associated with Neonatal and Infantile Infections in Yola, NigeriaJames Hamuel Doughari, Martha AbrahamOne hundred and eighty (180) stool samples collected of neonates and infants from three selected health facilities in Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria. The samples were subjected to both microscopic, biochemical test and cultural identification. Bromocresol green agar and Germ tube test was used to identify Candida species. Culture of the stool samples on SDA yielded 32 yeast cells with Candida … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 7 Sep 2021 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Heavy Metals Migration in the Water - Soil - Fodder - Milk Food Chain in the Almaty RegionNurzhan Sarsembayeva, Tolkyn Abdigaliyeva, Zura Utepova et al.This study presents the results of monitoring heavy metals (Cd, Pb, As and Hg) in the water - soil - fodder - milk food chain. The research aimed to study the effect of lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic in soil, water and components of the diet of cattle on their bioaccumulation in livestock products (milk) in basic farms of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2021 · 6,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Pollution of Owerri and Asuokofi Rivers in Konongo, GhanaWiafe Samuel, Buamah Richard, Essandoh HelenThe effects of polluted water and soil resulting from anthropogenic activities have impacted negatively on the livelihood of both human and animal existence. A thorough study was therefore required to ascertain the extent of pollution caused by the undertakings of these anthropogenic activities particularly within the Asante Akim Central Municipality of Ghana. This study assesses the dispersions and the extent … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2021 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study on the Microbial Community Structure of the Sediment of Pi River under the Different pH in WinterCairui Yu, Dongmei Shen, Wanfeng Wang et al.In order to solve the poor self-purification ability of low temperature water in winter, the microbial community structure in the sediment of Pi River water (located in West Anhui) was investigated experimentally in this study. Firstly, the sediment was sampled in the lower reaches of Pi River and prepared with the different pH (5.0, 5.5, 7.0 and 8.5); secondly, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2021 · 6,122 accessesView PDFCite
