Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAlteration of the Aquifer Water in Hyperarid Climate, by Wastewater: Cases of Groundwater from Ouargla (Northern Sahara, Algeria)Djidel Mohamed, Bousnoubra-Kherici Houria, Kherici Nacer, Nezli Imed-EddineThe present study is registered, on the area of Ouargla (the Sahara septentrional, Algeria) reports of the aquifer contamination by the anarchistic urban rejections. By its geomorphology (basin), its hyperarid climate and the presence of chotts, the area is subjected to an important degree of vulnerability, encouraged by the discharges of wastewater (domestic and irrigation). These factors expose aquifer's water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIdentification of Shear Band using Elastic Shear Wave PropagationT. Nachiengtai, W. Chim-Oye, S. Teachavorasinskun, W. Sa-NgiamviboolLocalization in soil under high stress level is usually investigated using some indirect measures, e.g., X-ray diffraction method. In the present study, the propagation velocity of shear wave was used to detect localization in sandy soil. Firstly, the general expression to exhibit the stress and density dependencies characteristics under consolidation and triaxial testing conditions of the tested soil was proposed. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHydrochemical Differentiation of Salinisation Process of the Water in Endoreic Semi-Arid Basin: Case of Rémila Basin, AlgeriaHouha Belgacem, Kherici Nacer, Kachi Slimane, Valles VincentThe aim of this study is to determine and treat a hierarchical basis of the various mechanisms responsible for the space variation of the water quality in a endoreic semi-arid basin. The water chemistry showed a large variability in space and time. The total dissolved solid (TDS) in water increases from upstream to downstream due to the effect of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesBehaviour of Main Microbiological Parameters And of Enteric Microorganisms During the Composting of Municipal Solid Wastes and Sewage Sludge in A Semi-Industrial Composting PlantOlfa Fourti, Naceur Jedidi, Abdenaceur HassenThis study was focused on the microbiological aspects of composting and on the behaviour of main prevalent microbial communities (non-pathogenic and selected pathogenic bacteria) during the composting process of municipal solid wastes and sewage sludge in a semi-industrial composting plant. Results showed that the dehydrogenase activity and Biomass C / Biomass N ratio showed a noticeable increase in the two … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesKinetics of Chromium Sorption on Biomass Fungi from Aqueous SolutionLouhab Krim, Sahmoune Nacer, Goma BilangoThe kinetics of chromium ions sorption from aqueous solution on fungi biomass have been investigated in a batch system. The experimental data were analysed based on an intraparticle diffusion equation and a pseudo-second-order mechanism, in order to predict the constant rate of sorption and the equilibrium capacity with the effect of initial chromium ions concentration, temperature and initial solution pH. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferent Arrangement of Dopamine Receptors/NMDA Receptors Heterocomplexes in the Brain Regions of a Healthy Male, Female and Audiogenic Seizure-Prone Male RatsGigi Tevzadze, Elene Zhuravliova, Natia Okriashvili et al.Differences in the composition and subcellular localization of heteroreceptors in the brain can trigger central nervous system diseases, including epilepsy and autism. Protein-protein interactions between Dopamine Receptors (DRs) and GLUN2A and GLUN2B subunits are critical mechanisms that regulate dopamine and glutamate coordinated signals. These interactions may be involved in the pathophysiological predisposition of epilepsy. We hypothesized that the specificity of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2022 · 6,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInhibition Effect of Walnut Leaf Polysaccharide on HepG2 Cells in vitroShuqing Yang, Haifang Xiao, Shuyan Yu et al.In this study, the effect of Walnut Leaf Polysaccharides (WLP) on human liver tumor HepG2 cells was investigated. The results showed that WLP had dose-dependent and time-dependent inhibitory effects on HepG2 cell viability. Typical apoptosis characteristics were observed in WLP-treated HepG2 cells through 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethyl-benzimidazolyl-carbocyanine iodide (DAPI) staining and Acridine Orange (AO)/Ethidium Bromide (EB) dual staining. Meanwhile, significant decrease in Mitochondrial … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2019 · 7,313 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPOTENTIAL AMELIORATIVE ROLE OF N-ACETYLCYSTEINE AGAINST TESTICULAR DYSFUNCTION INDUCED BY TITANIUM DIOXIDE IN MALE ALBINO RATSAhmed Farag El-Kirdasy, Mohamed Abdo Nassan, Ahmed Abdel Aziz Baiomy et al.In this study, we examined the ameliorative action of N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) against Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) induced testicular degeneration in albino rats. Adult male albino rats were given saline as a control group, TiO2 (1200 mg kg-1 BW), NAC (100 mg kg-1 BW) and co-treatment of NAC and TiO2 as a protective group for 3 months. Testicular tissues were extracted for … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2013 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
