Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCellulolytic Enzymes Production by Solid State Culture Using Pecan Nut Shell as Substrate and SupportMiguel A. Medina-Morales, José L. Martínez-Hernández, Heliodoro de la Garza, Cristóbal Noé AguilarProblem Statement: Great interest in the use of lignocellulosic biomass is increasing in order to diminish the accumulation of residues, such as pecan nut shells. One of the alternatives is the fungal degradation of these residues. Approach: The capacity of Trichoderma (coded as T1, T2 and T3) strains to produce cellulase and xylonite was evaluated. Results: Pecan nut shell fibers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,023 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFungal Culture Systems for Production of Antioxidant Phenolics Using Pecan Nut Shells as Sole Carbon SourceMiguel A. Medina, Ruth E. Belmares, Antonio Aguilera-Carbo et al.Problem statement: Many agro-industrial wastes have little or none utilization, when these materials could be a very rich source of several value-added compounds, such as: the pecan nut shells, which contain Antioxidant Phenolic (AP) molecules like tannins. Approach: In this study, a bioprocess for the liberation of AP from Pecan Nut Shells (PNS) was described. A chemical characterization of raw … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,042 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Organotin(IV) Complexes Derived of 2-amino-5-nitrobenzoic Acid: In vitro Antibacterial Screening ActivityYip-Foo Win, Siang-Guan Teoh, M. R. Vikneswaran et al.Problem statement: Tremendous studies have been carried out on organotin(IV) complexes derivatives of carboxylate anions. However, the synthesis and characterization as well as the in vitro antibacterial screening activity of organotin(IV) carboxylate derived of 2-amino-5-nitrobenzoic acid have not been carried out. Approach: Organotin(IV) carboxylate complexes derivative of 2-amino-5-nitrobenzoic acid, 2-NH2-5-NO2-C6H3COOH have been successfully synthesized. The acid and complexes obtained were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,797 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Polyelectrolyte in Turbidity Removal from Surface WaterA. H. Mahvi, M. RazaviOne of the most important treatment processes in surface water treatment plants is coagulation. Surface waters such as rivers and lakes contain suspended particles and turbidity. With the aid of coagulants, and by flocculation process, followed by sedimentation and filtration, these impurities can be removed from raw waters these days, besides conventional chemicals such as Alum and Ferric chloride, polymers … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 8,237 accessesView PDF Cite
