Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComplexes of 2-Thioacetic Acid Benzothiazole with Some Metal IonsEmad Yousif, Yang Farina, Khawla Kasar et al.New metal complexes of the ligand 2-thioacetic acid benzothiazole with the metal ions Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Sn(II) were prepared in alcoholic medium. The prepared complexes were characterized by FTIR Spectroscopy, electronic spectroscopy, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. From the spectral measurements, monomer structures for the complexes were proposed. Square planar geometry was proposed for the copper … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotoacoustic Measurement of Thermal Diffusivity of Polypyrrole Conducting Polymer Composite FilmsM. Y. Lim, W. Mahmood Mat Yunus, A. Kassim, H.N.M.E. MahmudThe thermal diffusivity has been measured for the Polypyrrole-Polyethylene Glycol (PPy-PEG) composite films by the open photoacoustic method. The experimental data were analyzed for thermal diffusivity by fitting procedure. The different process parameters such as different concentrations of insulating polymer, monomer and electrolyte and the different voltages used to prepare the PPy-PEG composite films brought changes in thermal diffusivity. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis, Characterization and Saponification of Poly (AN)-Starch Composites and Properties of their HydrogelsA. Hashem, M. A. Afifi, E. A. El-Alfy, A. HebeishHydrogels based on saponified products of poly (acrylonitrile, AN)-starch composites were prepared, characterized and their water abosrbency properties examined. The term composite refered to the resultant products of polymerizatin of AN with starch in presence of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as initiator, that is the composite consists of poly(AN)-starch graft copolymer, homopoly(AN) , oxidized starch and unreacted starch. Thus AN … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of Cellulosic Membrane Containing Pyrrolidone Moiety Via Radiation Induced Grafting and its Application in Wastewater TreatmentA. S. Aly, H. H. Sokker, A. Hashem, A. HebeishRadiation induced grafting of vinyl pyrrolidone onto cellulose wood pulp was carried out in heterogeneous and homogenous media using gamma radiation. Cellulose wood pulp was used in different forms; a) in a homogenous solution by dissolving the wood pulp in N,N- dimethylacetamide/Lithium chloride (DMAc/LiCl) mixture , b) in a membrane form, by precipitating the cellulose solution in water and c) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Main Active Substances and Functions in Jasminum Sambac (L.) AitonJiaqi Jian, Keying Han, Qiwei Guo et al.This article reviewed the relevant literature on the main active substances and functions of jasmine (Jasminum sambac (L.) Aiton). The results showed that: 1. The main active substances in jasmine are volatile oil, polysaccharides, and flavonoids. Volatile oil is a mixture of large molecules; Polysaccharide is a type of heteropolysaccharide or sugar complex; Flavonoids mostly exist in the form of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2023 · 7,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity of Cellulolytic Bacteria from the Digestive Tract of Oryctes rhinoceros LarvaeAhmad Faisal Nasution, Erman Munir, Dwi Suryanto et al.Lignocellulose is a ubiquitous biopolymer that, once degraded into monomeric products, could be used to produce a wide range of products. Bioconversion using indigenous microbes could be a solution to the large array of cellulosic waste and it could be sourced from exotic organisms such as Asiatic rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros L). This study aimed to cellulolytic bacteria from the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 2 Sep 2023 · 4,972 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRegulation of Gene Expression by β-GlucansMary O. Huff, Carolyn M. Klingeβ-D-glucans are diverse polysaccharides derived from plant cell walls, fungi and bacteria. β-D-glucans are composed of D-glucose monomers linked by (1-3) β-glycosidic bonds with varying amounts of (1-6) or (1-4) linked side chains that bind cell surface receptors ultimately triggering changes in intracellular pathways and gene transcription. β-D-glucans have anti-viral, immunomodulatory and anti-cancer activities.
