Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of Corn Oil Wastes by Fenton Reaction and Under Mildly Basic Media in the Presence of Oxidants Assisted with Sun LightJosefina Vergara Sánchez, Susana Silva Martínez, Maria del Refugio Trejo HernándezThe degradation of water soluble corn oil wastes was carried out by Fenton reaction and also under mildly basic media in the presence of oxidants, such as hydrogen peroxide and persulfate, assisted with solar light. The degradation efficiency was obtained by analysis of chemical oxygen demand, carbon dioxide and gas chromatography. Over 90% of both chemical oxygen demand abatement and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccumulation and Movement of Four Potentially Toxic Elements in Soils Throughout Five Years, During and After Biosolid ApplicationMarta Susana Zubillaga, Raúl Silvio LavadoIn this research, we have studied the accumulation of four PTEs (Cadmium, copper, lead and zinc) during and after biosolid application, in two soils with different clay content and their eventual movement with depth. The study was performed in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, on a Typic Argiudoll and on a Typic Hapludoll. Treatments were: control and biosolid application, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Impact Assessment for Potential Continuous Processes for the Production of Carbon NanotubesAditi Singh, Helen H. Lou, Ralph W. Pike et al.As an emerging discipline, nanotechnology has the potential to improve environmental sustainability through its application in pollution prevention, treatment, remediation, etc. One challenging issue in the growth of nanotechnology is how to produce purified carbon nanotubes (CNT) in commercial quantities at affordable price and with low environmental impacts. A detailed assessment of such a manufacturing process from both economic and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrophobic, Polar and Hydrogen Bonding Based Drug-Receptor Interaction of TetrahydroimidazobenzodiazepinonesV.K. Sahu, A.K.R. Khan, R.K. Singh, P.P. SinghAnti-HIV drug discovery has been increasingly focusing on HIV-1-RT (reverse transcriptase) as a potential therapeutic target. Tetrahydroimidazobenzodiazepinone (TIBO) belongs to non-nucleoside group of reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). A computational chemistry study has been performed on a series of tetrahydroimidazo-benzodiazepinones as HIV-1-NNRT inhibitors. Problem statement: In order to search out new drug of desired activity from the lead compounds, there was … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractC-Terminal Region of Dengue Virus Nonstructural Protein 1 Is Involved in Endothelial Cell Cross-Reactivity via Molecular MimicryShu-Wen Wan, Chiou-Feng Lin, Mei-Chun Chen et al.Infection with dengue virus (DV) causes diseases ranging from self-limited dengue fever to life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Vascular leakage, thrombocytopenia and bleeding are the clinical manifestations associated with dengue hemorrhage. We previously showed that anti-DV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) antibodies (Abs) cross-reacted with endothelial cells. The potential target proteins on endothelial cell surface recognized by anti-DV … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetic Study of the Effect of Benzoic Acid Derivatives on Copper ElectrodepositionHowaida M. El-KashlanThe effect of anodic oxygen bubbles on the rate of mass transfer in presence of benzoic acid, p-nitro, p-chloro and p-aminobenzoic acids were studied by measuring the limiting current of cathodic deposition of copper from acidified copper sulphate solution using lead anode. It is found that the rate of deposition decreases by adding organic substances. The rate of deposition depends … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,129 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of a Putative Functional Region in the Human Bax Protein by Computational AnalysisMaría Sánchez-Aguilar, Laurence A. Marchat, Absalom ZamoranoStructural domains are relevant elements for interactions between Bcl-2 family members to regulate apoptosis and cell survival. Although BH1-BH4 domains can be identified by their sequence and selective occurrence in Bcl-2-family members, structural regions have not been entirely determined yet. The functional residues of Bax, the most representative pro-apoptotic protein of the human Bcl-2 family, remain almost unknown. Here, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrystallisation and Melting Behavior of Methyl Esters of Palm OilCheng Sit Foon, Yung Chee Liang, Noor Lida Habi Mat Dian et al.The methyl esters of palm oil, which consists of saturated and unsaturated esters (0.6 to 95.9% unsaturation) of the C12 to C18 fatty acids, solidify at the two temperature ranges, -52 to -45°C and -24 to 21°C, when the esters are cooled. When the esters are heated, they melt at two distinct temperatures, -25 and -33°C and a broad peak … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of RNA-DNA Duplex Base Triplets to Antisense DrugsJie Yang, Yao Leng, Ju BaoSixty-four sets of three-dimensional models of RNA-DNA duplex base triplets were constructed based on codons by homology modeling method using software InsightII on Indigo workstation, which should be helpful for the study of RNA-DNA annealing, the basis of nucleic acids interactions and some peculiar motifs for design antisense oligonucleotides. Our research result reveal that the energies (such as E, Ec, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,531 accessesView PDFCite
