Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemperature Effect on Rhizoctonia solani Analyzed by MicrocalorimetryAntonio Orozco-Avitia, Martin Esqueda, Amparo Meza et al.Temperature is one of the factors playing an important role in fungi growth and spread. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of temperature on the growth of ten Rhizoctonia solani isolates. Colony Growth Rate (GR) was measured in potato-agar-dextrose cultures and Metabolic Efficiency (ME) by isothermal microcalorimetry in R. solani isolates growing in a temperature range … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jul 2013 · 8,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Glutaredoxin Gene (slr1562) Protects Escherichia coli against Abiotic StressesAhmed Gaber, Salah El-Din El-AssalProblem statement: Glutaredoxins (GRXs) are ubiquitous small heat stable glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase enzymes that play a crucial role in plant development and response to oxidative stress. Approach: Cyanobacterium Synechocystis strain PCC 6803 contains two genes (slr1562 and ssr2061) encoding glutaredoxins. In the present investigation the slr1562 gene (grxC) was isolated and characterized. Results: The results revealed that the amino acid sequence … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Manufacturing Stresses to Die Attach Film Performance In Quad Flatpack No-Lead Stacked Die PackagesM. F. Rosle, I. Abdullah, S. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Repeated heat cure during assembly processes affected the Die Attach Film (DAF) material properties and the effectiveness touched area that leads to weak die bonding and delamination. Suitable die attached condition and DAF material selection had been evaluated to achieve required reliability performance in the manufacturing of the 3D Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) stacked die package. Approach: During … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Mild Stresses Known to Increase Longevity in Drosophila melanogaster Flies do not Increase Resistance to Oxidative StressÉric Le BourgExposure to a mild stress at a young age (hypergravity, cold or heat) increases longevity and resistance to heat shocks in Drosophila melanogaster flies and it may also delay behavioral aging and increase resistance to other stresses. The effect of these mild stresses on resistance to oxidative stress has not been studied. Flies were thus fed on a saccharose solution … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,301 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical and Genetic Responses of Fungi to the Toxic Effect of Synthetic and Natural FungicidesMarÍa-Elena Báez-Flores, Rosalba Troncoso-Rojas, Martin-Ernesto Tiznado-HernándezThe objective of the present review is to analyze the molecular basis of fungicide resistance mechanism to both synthetic fungicides and the natural fungicides isothiocyanates. The review is focused mainly on Alternaria sp., but whenever available, similar studies in other fungi have been included. Fungal resistant strains to dicarboximide and phenylpyrrole fungicides have been found to contain mutations in one … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpraying Effects on Goat Welfare in Hot and Humid ClimateNazan Darcan, Fatin Cedden, Okan GuneyHeat stress is one of the major factors adversely affecting animal welfare and thus economic benefits of farms. This study was designed to determine the effects of three different spraying methods on goats for reducing heat stress. Thirty goats divided into three groups for the trial (One time sprayed a day: OTS, Two times sprayed a day TTS and Non-sprayed: … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,297 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Transcript Labeling Techniques and Development of a Membrane-based Parallel Gene Expression AssayMark A. Fisher, Bonnie B. Plikaytis, Thomas M. ShinnickAn inexpensive alternative to micro arrays was developed to examine the expression of small sets of genes in parallel and used to compare direct and indirect transcript labeling methods. Psoralen-biotin direct labeling was ~10-fold less sensitive than reverse transcriptase-biotin-dUTP labeling, but the enzymatic method generated higher levels of background noise in miniarray hybridizations. The reproducibility of hybridization intensities was the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced Manufacturing for Novel Materials in Industrial Design ApplicationsFrancesco Tamburrino, Antonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe research presented starts with a focus on Smart Materials, or rather materials with properties that react to external stimuli (temperature, electric or magnetic field, pH or mechanical stress, for example) related to the environmental changes, modifying one or some of their own properties (mechanical, electrical, appearance, etc.). Afterward, one category of Smart Materials, Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), has been … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 May 2018 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Molecular Chaperone, Alpha-Crystallin, on the Heat-Induced Aggregation of Beta-lactoglobulinArezou GhahghaeiAggregation of beta-lactoglobulin occurs mainly via intermolecular disulphide bond exchange. Upon heating, beta-lactoglobulin aggregated which increased with increasing pH. The presence of DTT led to more rapid aggregation and precipitation of beta-lactoglobulin. Alpha-Crystallin prevented the aggregation of heat-stressed beta-lactoglobulin and was a more efficient chaperone at higher pH values. In the presence of DTT, however, alpha-crystallin was a less efficient … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,580 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects.
