Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Mutagenesis for Improvement of Production of a Biologically Active Extracellular Polymeric Substance by Halomonas xianhensis SUR308Jhuma Biswas, Amal K. PaulA moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas xianhensis SUR308 (Genbank Accession No. KJ933394) isolated from solar saltern of Surala, Odisha, India was found to produce significant amount of a biologically active extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Under optimized cultural conditions, the strain was able to produce 7.05 g L-1 of EPS after 8 days of incubation under shake culture. To enhance the EPS … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2016 · 15,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcological Studies of Epiphytic Microalgae and Epiphytic Zooplankton on Seaweeds of the Eastern Harbor, Alexandria, EgyptN. G. Shams El-Din, N. A. Shaltout, M. Z. Nassar, A. SolimanA qualitative and quantitative study on the epiphytic microalgae and epiphytic zooplankton were conducted in order to follow up their community structures on seaweeds in relation to some physico-chemical variables in the coastal waters of the Eastern Harbor of Alexandria. Water and macroalgal samples were collected seasonally during two years successively: Winter, summer, autumn (2012) and spring (2013). The collected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 9 Dec 2015 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesorption of Exchangeable Cations at Adsorption of Lead Ions by Chernozem in the Presence of Attendant AnionsT. M. Minkina, D. L. Pinskii, S. S. Mandzhieva et al.The effect of Cl–, Ac‾ and NO3‾ anions on the adsorption of Pb cations by an ordinary chernozem and desorption of exchangeable cations in the soil-solution system has been assessed under model laboratory conditions. It has been shown that the attendant anions affect the shape of the adsorption isotherms, which are described by the Langmuir equation. The greatest influence on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 20 Oct 2015 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ASSOCIATION OF IONS IN THE SOIL SOLUTION OF SALINE SOILSA. P. Endovitsky, T. M. Minkina, V. P. Kalinichenko et al.The chemical equilibrium in the soil solution determines the dynamics of its material composition, migration and accumulation of salts. In the soil solution are formed electrically neutral ion pairs CaCO3°; CaSO4°, MgCO3°, MgSO4°, charged ion pairs CaHCO3+, MgHCO3+, NaCO3-, NaSO4-, CaOH+, MgOH+. The calculation method proposed for quantitative assessment of real ion forms in the soil solution of solonetz taking … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 12 Feb 2014 · 8,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Bacteria for Lactic Acid Production from Whey WaterVethakanraj Helen Shiphrah, Sayanti Sahu, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriLactobacilli have the property of converting lactose and other sugars to lactic acid through fermentation. So whey water, the greenish translucent liquid rich in lactose, vitamins, proteins and mineral salts, obtained as a by-product after the precipitation of cheese can be used as a substrate for Lactobacilli for lactic acid production which otherwise is a serious environmental pollutant when disposed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 9,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForensically Flies Detect the Nutritional Value of Corpses Through Neuro-Chemoreceptive Cells-(5th Cell)Hedayat Abdel Ghaffar, Tarek Tantawi, Ibrahim Gaboub et al.Animals have evolved several chemosensory systems for detecting potentially dangerous foods in the environment. Activation of specific sensory cells within these chemosensory systems usually elicits an aversive behavioral response, leading to avoidance of the noxious foods. Blowflies respond to sugars, salts and water through the activation of specific chemoreceptor neurons in the antennal, labellar and tarsal chemosensillae. These insects also … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 5 Sep 2012 · 7,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction of Ca (II) and Mg (II) from Hydrochloric Acid Solutions by N, N-Dioctyl-1-Octan Ammonium Chloride in Methyl Isobutyl KetoneArben Haziri, Fatmir Faiku, Imer Haziri et al.Problem statement: Amines as organic molecules are able to form complexes with metals ions and this is the reason why we can use them to extract metals ions from hydrometallurgical solutions. Approach: Based on that, we have investigated the extraction of Calcium and Magnesium with N, N-dioctyl-1-octan ammonium chloride from the mixture of elements (Ca and Mg) prepared in artificial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 8 Jun 2012 · 7,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy and Identification of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Gene Polymorphisms in Zel Sheep PopulationSeyed Mohsen Kazemi, Cyrus Amirinia, Hossein Emrani, Shahaboddin GharahveysiProblem statement: The IGFs play an important role in regulating somatic growth according to nutritional conditions. Polymorphisms of IGF gene are reported to be significantly associated with many traits. Approach: In these study 142 samples of DNA from Zel sheep were used for detecting the polymorphisms of promoter region of the Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) gene. Therefore DNA extracted from … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 13 Jan 2012 · 7,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiofortification of Food with MicroelementsKatarzyna Chojnacka, Marcin Mikulewicz, Jerzy CieplikProblem statement: Recently a particular attention was paid to the issue of microelement hunger, also termed hidden hunger. The problem was of global significance, since was related with the public health and concerns over 2 billion people. Approach: The study discusses the state of the art in the research on food biofortification as the sustainable solution to cope with micronutrient … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2011 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,798 accessesView PDFCite
