Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Evaluation of Acaricidal Soap Formulated from Azadirachta indica (Neem) and Carica Papaya (Papaya) Leaf Extracts Using Bio-Assay Guided ApproachAlfredo V. Corpuz, Carmela Montoya Florentino, Ace Danielle C. AveroThe environment, human health, and animals are all at risk as a result of the pervasive use of chemical-based products to control ticks and lice in animals, mostly dogs. This investigation was designed to assess the efficacy and physicochemical properties of an acaricidal soap for canines that was formulated using Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya leaf extracts. The soap was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2025 · 3,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Bioactive Constituents from the Aerial Parts of Dictamnus dasycarpus Turcz. With Antioxidant, Immunoenhancing, and Anticoagulant PotentialJiaqi Sun, Shiyu Ji et al.The cultivation of Dictamnus dasycarpus Turcz (DdT) is expensive and difficulty associated with growing, making its root bark the only commonly used medicinal part, while other parts are discarded. Therefore, in order to improve the limited utilization of resources, the new medicinal parts were screened from polysaccharide-rich aqueous extracts. The samples were the purified polysaccharides from the aerial part on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Oct 2025 · 2,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Biochar Quality from Palm and Cacao Waste through Variation of Pyrolysis Temperature and Duration as a Soil Amendment MaterialIwan Saputra, Sugeng Prijono et al.Palm and cacao waste are high-quality raw materials for producing quality biochar that enhances soil fertility, provided that the biochar production process takes into account various aspects of pyrolysis. The pyrolysis conditions, such as temperature and duration, significantly impact the quality of the biochar produced as a soil amendment. The type of raw material, pyrolysis temperature, duration, and other conditions … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 27 Jul 2024 · 5,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Compost Production from Fruit and Vegetable Market Waste: A Case Study in Bagua, Amazonas (Peru)Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Wilfredo Ruiz Camacho, Juan Francisco Robles RuizInadequate management of organic solid waste in municipal markets represents a critical environmental challenge in tropical developing regions, where high humidity (>80%) and elevated temperatures (>25°C) accelerate decomposition, generating leachate and greenhouse gas emissions. In Peru, over 50% of municipal waste is organic, yet less than 20% is valorised through composting, highlighting a substantial technological gap. This study evaluated an … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 1,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVirtual Screening of Bioactive Compounds from the Onion (Allium) Genus as Potential Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors for MonkeypoxDinda Ratu Agustiani, Rakhmat Ramdhani Alwie, Harry NoviardiMonkeypox (Mpox) is an emerging zoonotic disease caused by the Mpox virus infection that affects humans and animals. Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is an important target in the pathogenesis of Mpox. Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), encoded by orthopoxviruses, plays an important role in intercellular transmission of the virus. Onion is known to have antiviral and immunomodulatory properties. Active compounds … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 6 Aug 2026 · 945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioethanol Production from Graminoid Weeds in Bayero University Kano: A Potential Feedstock for Future Sustainable Aviation Fuel ApplicationsAdam Salihu Kila, Sa’idu Hassan Musa, Umar Aliyu Ahmed et al.This study evaluates the potential of selected graminoid weeds from Bayero University, Kano (BUK), Nigeria, as feedstock for bioethanol production. Ten (10) abundant weed species, including Cenchrus species, Cynodon dactylon, and Setaria barbata, were subjected to physicochemical pretreatment (ultrasonication, hydrothermal treatment, and enzymatic hydrolysis) followed by fermentation using Bacillus subtilis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and their co-culture. Pretreatment significantly enhanced reducing sugar … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 Jul 2026 · 1,170 accessesView PDFCite
