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 abstractSynthesis of Zeolite A from By-Product of Aluminum Etching Process: Effects of Reaction Temperature and Reaction Time on Pore VolumeKanokorn Hussar, Sombat Teekasap, Nisakorn SomsukProblem statement: Increasing of the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere creates a global warming. Zeolite is used as CO2 absorbent. Approach: By-products from aluminum etching process, which carry a large amount of Al2O3 content, are useable as raw materials for synthesis zeolites type A using hydrogel process. A pore volume of zeolites is the key to achieve high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModelisation of Nitrification under Inhibited Environment by Moving Bed Bio-Film Reactor TechniquePham Thi Hong Duc, Le Van Cat, Jean-Luc VaselProblem statement: Nitrification by Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) involves physical, chemical and biological processes to remove toxic ammonia for aquaculture that are governed by a variety of parameters, like substrate and dissolved oxygen concentrations, organic matters, temperature, pH, alkalinity and turbulence level, which impact negatively or positively on nitrification kinetics. Approach: The situation becomes more serious as the reaction … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnzymatic Synthesis of Palm Alkyl Ester Using Dialkyl Carbonate as an Alkyl DonorsRoila Awang, Choo Yuen MayProblem statement: Though efficient in terms of reaction yield and time, the chemical approach to synthesizing alkyl ester has drawback such as difficulties in the recovery of glycerol and the need for removal of salt residue. On the other hand, biocatalyst allow for synthesis of specific alkyl esters and easy recovery of glycerol. However, the solvent-free alcoholysis, does not give … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Biodiesel by Enzymatic Transesterification: ReviewA.E. Ghaly, D. Dave, M.S. Brooks, S. BudgeProblem Statement: The research on the production of biodiesel has increased significantly in recent years because of the need for an alternative fuel which endows with biodegradability, low toxicity and renewability. Plant oils, animal fats, microalgal oils and waste products such as animal rendering, fish processing waste and cooking oils have been employed as feedstocks for biodiesel production. In order … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 21,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo Optimization Methods to Determine the Rate Constants of a Complex Chemical Reaction Using FORTRAN and MATLABAbdel-Latif Aboul Seoud, Lamiaa A.M. AbdallahProblem statement: For chemical reactions, the determination of the rate constants is both very difficult and a time consuming process. The aim of this research was to develop computer programs for determining the rate constants for the general form of any complex reaction at a certain temperature. The development of such program can be very helpful in the control of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,042 accessesView PDFCite

Abd AllaProblem statement: Further study is recommended to improve the immobilization technique and the immobilized lipase’s performance as catalysis in transesterification reaction. Approach: To investigate the ability of immobilized lipase on chitosan beads to catalyze the transesterification of cooking oil to an ester. The porous bead of chitosan was used for immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa by physical adsorption. Parameters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Electrochemical Investigation of the Redox Properties of Murexide in Aqueous and Non-Aqueous MediaHossnia S. MohranKnowledge of solvent effects on the redox properties of Murexide (Mu) is important for understanding its role as an electron acceptor in analytical and inorganic chemistry. In the present study, an investigation of the electrochemical behavior of the compound by both Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) in both aqueous and non-aqueous solutions was undertaken. It is suggested … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Production of Oligosaccharides by a Reaction using Whole Mammalian Cells as BiocatalystsTomohisa Kato, Rie Mitsumori, Kenichi HatanakaProblem statement: Mammalian cells were used for the production of oligosaccharides by saccharide primer method. However, because cells in culture are used, productivity of oligosaccharides is low. Approach: In saccharide primer method employing cells under culture, glycosylation was performed only by mixing the collected cells in reaction mixtures. Saccharide primer, 12-azidododecyl β-lactoside that mimics lactosylceramide (LacCer), was incubated with various … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAmphoteric Starch in Simultaneous Process Preparation with Box-Behnken Design for Optimal ConditionsSopa Cansee, Juntanee Uriyapongson, Commueng Watyotha et al.Cassava starch was chemically modified to produce an amphoteric starch. The amphoteric starch was prepared in a simultaneous process which was evaluated in relation to four factors: temperature (45-55 °C), 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (CHPTAC, 4-12%) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STP, 2-8%) concentrations, and reaction time (2-6 h).
