Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Algorithm for Variable and Samples Selection in Multivariate Calibration ProblemsKelton de Souza Santiago, Anderson Silva Soares, Telma Woerle de Lima et al.One of the main problems of quantitative analytical chemistry is to estimate the concentration of one or more species from the values of certain physicochemical properties of the system of interest. For this it is necessary to construct a calibration model, i.e., to determine the relationship between measured properties and concentrations. The multivariate calibration is one of the most successful … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,385 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 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTYPICAL MEXICAN AGROINDUSTRIAL RESIDUES AS SUPPORTS FOR SOLID-STATE FERMENTATIONDulce A. Flores-Maltos, Solange I. Mussatto, Juan C. Contreras Esquivel et al.Biological wastes contain several reusable substances of high value such as soluble sugars and fiber. Direct disposal of such wastes to soil or landfill causes serious environmental problems. Thus, the development of potential value-added processes for these wastes is highly attractive. These biological wastes can be used as support-substrates in Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) to produce industrially relevant metabolites with great … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcological Monitoring of Danube water Quality in Budapest RegionHosam E.A.F. Bayoumi Hamuda, Istvan PatkoProblem statement: Serious health problems and other economic costs related to water treatment, remediation and locating a new water supply, become an evidence of water pollution caused by human activities. The main problems of the Danube River basin are associated with nutrients, organic pollution and hazardous pollutants. The aim of the study is to assess the surface water of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 5 Apr 2012 · 9,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Abattoir and Saw-Mill Effluents on Water Quality of Upper Ogun River (Abeokuta)A. O. Adeogun, A. V. Chukwuka, O. R. IborProblem statement: The unregulated discharge of contaminants from point sources into inland freshwater aquatic systems and the resultant deterioration of water quality are largely undocumented in developing countries like Nigeria especially with respect to the role of seasonal factors on the recovery capacity of aquatic systems. Approach: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of abattoir and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 6 Jan 2012 · 8,639 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Water Quality Based on the Physico-Chemical Assessment on River Water at Wildlife Sanctuary Sibuti Mangrove Forest, Miri SarawakSeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Johin Ngayop, Chandra Iman AriantoProblem statement: Mangrove forest is a component of wetlands that has been recognized as one of the most productive ecosystem in the tropic. Rapid development and other land uses in the mangrove areas over the years had negatively affected the ecological functions and its ecosystem. Study was carried out on river water quality at Sibuti Wildlife Sanctuary, Miri based on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 12 Jul 2011 · 9,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Diffusion Coefficient using Reversed-Flow Gas Chromatography-A ReviewKhalisanni Khalid, Rashid Atta Khan, Sharifuddin Mohd. ZainProblem statement: Since the earliest publication on the technique, Reversed-Flow Gas Chromatography (RF-GC) has been used to determine physicochemical properties by measuring the value of one in the presence of another. The method is precise, accurate and simple compared to other conventional techniques. Approach: The experimental setup consists of a small modification of a commercial gas chromatograph, so that it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth of Bone Marrow Derived Osteoblast-Like Cells into Coral Implant Scaffold: Preliminary Study on Malaysian CoralK. A. AL-SalihiProblem statement: Biomaterial fabrication in Malaysia started as a consequence of the demand for cheaper implant materials. Various biomaterials have been developed utilizing local resources like Malaysian coral. Locally processed Malaysian coral need to be complemented with proper evaluation and testing including toxicology, biocompatibility, mechanical properties, physicochemical characterization and in vivo testing. The present study was carried out to assess … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCementation Analysis by Eddy Current MethodM. Zergoug, H. Oubouchou, N. AmimeurIncrease the hardness, the endurance and the life time of material can be realised by surface treatments and remetallings, the electromagnetic properties of steels depend on their composition, their microstructures and constraints applied. We can use the electric and magnetic parameters to evaluate their microstructure. The object of this work is the characterization of cementation by the non-destructive methods and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,569 accessesView PDFCite
