Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOrganic Matter, Carbon and Humic Acids in Rehabilitated and Secondary Forest SoilsLee Yit Leng, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem Statement: Tropical rainforests cover about 19.37 million ha (60%) of Malaysia’s total area and about 8.71 million ha can be found in Sarawak, Malaysia. Excessive logging, mining and shifting cultivation contribute to deforestation in Sarawak. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Quantify soil Organic Matter (SOM), Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) and Humic Acids (HA) in rehabilitated and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental Investigation on Geomechanical Properties of Tropical Organic Soils and PeatBujang B.K. Huat, Afshin Asadi, Sina KazemianProblem statement: Organic soils and peat were believed to be geotechnically problematic due to their very high compressibility, very low shear strength and difficult accessibility. Although conventional soil mechanics theory could be applied to the soils, it was found that important anomalies existed which required special considerations. Correlations between geomechanical parameters for the soils were known to be important for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeasonal Distribution of Organic Carbon in the Surface Sediments of the Terengganu Nearshore Coastal AreaS. Hasrizal, B. Y. Kamaruzzaman, I. Sakri et al.Problem statement: The distribution of organic carbon in the surface sediment is a crucial indicator for current productivity in the ocean especially in the nearshore area. The difference of organic carbon in the surface sediment reflects the influence of current movement on the bottom sediment. Approach: This study was carried out to oversee the difference of organic carbon distribution during … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Review on Some Organic Acids Additives as Shelf Life Extenders of Fresh Beef CutsMohamed B. Jamilah, K.A. Abbas, R. Abdul RahmanThis study was aiming to present some approaches by which the shelf life of fresh beef cuts was extended. These approaches were based on using organic acids. Therefore the work was started with highlighting the deterioration of some quality attributes due to spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. These attributes included colour, flavour and lipid oxidation changes. In a given holding temperature, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Organic and Inorganic Chromium Supplementation on Meat Quality of Heat-Stressed Broiler ChicksMajid Toghyani, Ali Khodami, Abbas Ali GheisariThis study examined the effect of different levels of dietary organic and inorganic chromium (Cr) on meat quality of broiler chicks reared under heat stress condition. Four hundred and twenty Ross male chickens in heat stress condition (33±3°C) were allocated to seven treatments in a completely randomized design. Treatments were supplemented with 0 (control), 500, 1000 or 1500 µg kg-1 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Utilization of Peat, Lignite and Industrial Wastes in the Production of Mineral-Organic FertilizersKrystyna Hoffmann, Józef HoffmannThe results of chemical analyses of the composition of peat, lignite, turkey droppings and the potato industry effluent are presented. The results indicate that the substances can be used in mineral-organic fertilizer recipes. Although lignite and peat do not contain assimilable nutrients, from the ecology and pedology point of view they are valuable components of mineral-organic fertilizers. In order to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Fate of Non-Volatile Organic Chemicals in The Agricultural EnvironmentMohammad A. Batiha, Abdul Amir H. Kadhum, Zahedi Fisal et al.Multimedia dynamic model of the fate of non-volatile organic chemicals (NVOC) in the agricultural environment is described. The modeled environment, consisting of up to three major surfaces environmental compartments, includes air, agricultural soil, and surface water. This model is based on the aquivalence approach suggested by Mackay and co-workers in 1989. As the movement of chemicals in the environment is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
