Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcetylation Process and Antioxidant Activity of a Polysaccharide from Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) LeavesYiting Xue, Xiao Ding, Ze Zhang et al.Chemical modifications of polysaccharides can provide an opportunity to obtain new agents with possible therapeutic uses. In this study, a water-soluble polysaccharide extracted from Loquat Leaves (coded LLPs) was purified by the column chromatography, which was used to investigate its acetylation process by the acetic anhydride method. The Degree of Substitution (DS) was used as the index, the effect of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2021 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractVolume 3: SGAMR is Always on Track!Chiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Flavio StochinoThe year 2019 represents a new growing step for SGAMR, that starts to publish “continuously” all the accepted papers, once they are subjected to positive, blinded peer-review process. This is a further effort to improve the service for the contributors and for the readers, given that the efficiency of the journal to share knowledge can be maximized. Hänig et al. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Aug 2020 · 5,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Marine Clay-Supported Nano Zero Valent IronHo Kuok How, Wan Zuhairi Wan YaacobThis study reports the preparation and characterization of marine clay nano zero valent iron (MC+nZVI) where marine clay acts as the composite material. Marine clay was air dried and pulverized before used. Basically, MC+nZVI was synthesized by chemical reduction method. The materials synthesized were left oven dried overnight at 50°C. The obtained materials were characterized by Field Emission Scanning Electron … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2015 · 7,124 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIDENTIFICATION, MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF SOME RUMINAL BACTERIA THAT CATALYZE AND DEGRADE PLANT CELLULOSIC MATERIALSAhmed A. Mansour, T. S. El-Tayeb, N. E. El-BordenyIn the last few years there was a growing economic awareness about plant wastes and use it in compost production or in feeding of farm animals, some of these wastes are useless and cause a lot of problems in Egyptian environment. This study was designed to isolate, identify and evaluate some ruminal bacterial isolates to facilitate the in vitro degradation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2013 · 7,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnticancer Activity of Isolated Chemical Constituents from Miliusa smithiaeChonthicha Naphong, Wilart Pompimon, Punchavee SombutsiriMiliusa plants belonging to the family Annonaceae are found in Thailand and have been used as Thai traditional medicines. There have been a few previously reports on the chemical constituents of plants in this genus, describing the presence of aporphine alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids, styrylpyrones, bis-styryls and homogentisic acid derivatives. Miliusa smithiae, a new species for Thailand and world, has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 7,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Egyptian Smectitic Clay Deposits by Methylene Blue AdsorptionSalwa D. Abayazeed, Essam El-HinnawiProblem statement: The characterization of smectitic clays has been traditionally made using physical and chemical methods which are time-consuming and require costly equipment. Adsorption of methylene blue by these clays has been introduced as a quick and cheap method for the estimation of cation exchange capacity and surface area. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to test the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Strength and Durability Properties of High Performance Mortar Containing Densified Silica FumeCheah Chee Ban, Mahyuddin RamliProblem statement: Numerous data and information on pozzolanic reaction and microfiller properties of silica fume were derived from laboratory investigation on silica fume in undensified form. Currently, due to low bulk density of undensified silica fume which poses problem in transportation and handling of the material, silica fume are commercially supplied in densified form. Densification process used to increase bulk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Epoxidized and Non-Epoxidized Fatty Diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Gas ChromatographyChoy Sin Lee, Song Cang LeeProblem statement: This study was carried out for the characterization of epoxidized and non-epoxidized fatty diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Gas Chromatography (GC). Approach: The fatty diethanolamides were synthesized by reacting 40% (w/w) of Epoxidized Palm Olein (EPOo) with 60% (w/w) Refined Bleached Deodorized Plam Kernel Olein (RBDPKOo) with Diethanolamine (DEA) at 110°C for 5 h.
