Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanoplastics in the Environment and the Effects on the ZebrafishJimmy De León, María del C. Cotto, Francisco MárquezPlastic is one of the most used materials in the world, adopted in almost all activities of human life, but due to the high persistence and durability in the environment, it is causing pollution problems. Through different processes, small particles of polymers are emerging and the effects on the health are still unknown. The Danio rerio (zebrafish) is a model … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 8 Oct 2019 · 7,695 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPermanent Magnetic FluidsNicolae Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuA team of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has accidentally obtained the first magnetized permanent liquid in the world, the droplets of this liquid moving in unison and able to associate in different forms while being manipulated exterior by means of a magnet, according to a new study published in the latest issue of the journal Science, reports … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 22 Aug 2019 · 8,842 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractGenotypic Characterization of Antimicrobial Resistance-Associated Genes in Citrobacter Freundii Isolated from Patients with Urinary Tract Infection in Al-Najaf Governorate-IraqThualfakar Hayder, Ahmed Abduljabbar Jaloob AljanabyCitrobacter freundii is one of the most important pathogens that cause urinary tract infection in human because it harbors many types of antimicrobials resistance-associated genes. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance-associated genes citrobacter freundii isolated from patients with urinary tract infection in Al-Najaf governorate-Iraq. A total of 30 strains of citrobacter freundii isolated from urine … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2019 · 8,541 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractInternational Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research: A New Open Platform for Materials ScienceChiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Andreas Luible, Flavio StochinoEditorial The International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research (IJSGAMR) is a new peer-reviewed, open access journal, which covers all aspects of theoretical and practical research of materials science. The journal aims to promote international exchange of knowledge and broad discussion on advancements, outcomes and recent developments in materials research for engineering applications. In the last years, the … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 17 May 2017 · 13,690 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced Manufacturing for Novel Materials in Industrial Design ApplicationsFrancesco Tamburrino, Antonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe research presented starts with a focus on Smart Materials, or rather materials with properties that react to external stimuli (temperature, electric or magnetic field, pH or mechanical stress, for example) related to the environmental changes, modifying one or some of their own properties (mechanical, electrical, appearance, etc.). Afterward, one category of Smart Materials, Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), has been … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 May 2018 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Progress in Self-Cleaning Materials with Different Suitable ApplicationsSiavash Hosseinpour Chermahini, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid Eslamian, Vijay P. SinghSelf-cleaning properties have received significant attention for the importance of their potential. Coatings at Nano-scales offer possibilities of using materials for self-cleaning surfaces. Recent efforts have begun to focus on the kinds of materials including metals, semiconductors and polymers. Such materials can have enormous potential in only a few applications. Moreover, the production of these materials requires high costs with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 9,132 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractNew Opportunities for Fullerenes and for GrapheneClive DelmonteThis is a conjecture which defines a new class of electrically conducting polymer that chemically confines metals, ions or clusters within an electric potential constraining them to react in ways novel to chemistry. The polymers are planar on a planar surface and adhere as a П-bonded electron sheet to planar, electron-delocalized surfaces as in Fullerenes, graphene (both sides) and graphite. … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 1 Jan 2016 · 13,958 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 abstractThe Use of Polyethylene in Hot Asphalt MixturesMohammad T. Awwad, Lina ShbeebThe increase in road traffic during the last two decades in combination with an insufficient degree of maintenance due to shortage in funds has caused an accelerated and continuous deterioration of the road network in Jordan. To alleviate this process, several types of measures may be effective, e.g., securing funds for maintenance, improved roadway design, use of better quality of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 14,664 accessesView PDFCite
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 PDFCite
