Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolute or Heat Transport in a Flat DuctElijah Johnson, Ayaovi D. Apeti, Sekeenia Haynes, Larry RobinsonSteady state solute and heat transfer for laminar flow in a flat duct has been widely studied[1-4]. The same problem in a circular tube is called the Graetz Problem[5,6]. The transfer rate of solute and heat from fluids is of importance in a number of processes, such as diffusion of drugs in the blood stream and the uptake of environmental … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,392 accessesView PDFCite

This cross-sectional study was performed on 493 randomly selected medical students and hospital … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishment and Evaluation of the Vegetative Community in A Surface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Industrial Park ContaminantsC.C. Galbrand, A.M. Snow, A.E. Ghaly, R. CôtéA surface flow constructed wetland, designed to curve in a kidney shape in order to increase the length to width ratio to 5:1 was used to treat runoff from an industrial park. A natural wetland system located approximately 200 m downstream of the constructed wetland was selected to act as the vegetative community model for the constructed wetland. The selected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF UREA WITH NUTRISPHERE-N POLYMER IN FALL AND SPRING NITROGEN APPLICATIONS FOR CORNPawel Wiatrak, Walter B. GordonPolymer coated urea may be a viable option to improve Nitrogen (N) uptake and corn (Zea mays L.) grain yields, especially in areas with relatively high soil N loss. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of two urea application timings (fall and spring) and three N rates (90, 180 and 270 kg N ha-1) with and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2013 · 8,150 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Biopterin Transporter (BT1) Gene on Growth and Infectivity of LeishmaniaManju Jain, Vandana S. Dole, Peter J. Myler et al.Leishmania are known to be auxotrophic for pteridines that are known to play a critical role in the parasites survival. In the present work the role of biopterin transporter in the growth of the parasite and infectivity in to macrophages has been worked out. The role of biopterin transporter in the susceptibility of Leishmania to antimonial compounds has also been … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,038 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordManganese Uptake By Facultative and Obligate Wetland Plants Under Laboratory ConditionsA. E. Ghaly, A. Snow, M. KamalThe effect of initial concentrations of manganese on the overall removal efficiency of Mn by wool grass, soft rush, broad leaved cattail and soft stem bulrush plants was investigated under laboratory conditions. The translocation of Mn in the roots, stems, leaves and flowers of each plant species was determined and the fraction of Mn removed by precipitation was calculated.
