Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction of Genomic DNA Using Magnetic Nanoparticles (Fe3O4) as a Solid-Phase SupportZ. M. Saiyed, C. N. RamchandMagnetic separation technology, using magnetic particles, is quick and easy method for sensitive and reliable captures of specific proteins, genetic material and other biomolecules. The current paper describes a universal genomic DNA extraction method optimized in our laboratory using magnetic nanoparticles as a solid phase adsorbent. The yields of the isolated DNA with magnetic method were higher or equivalent to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 9,831 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional control of HIV-AIDS-A case for SeleniumParisa Kalantari, Hema Vunta, Umamaheswari D. Palempalli et al.Selenium (Se) is a micronutrient that is incorporated into proteins. Some of the selenoenzymes such as GPXs and thioredoxin reductases exhibit glutathione peroxidase-dependent activities towards organic and inorganic peroxides. Thus, selenoenzymes play a pivotal role in mitigating oxidative stress caused by accumulation of peroxides. In this respect, selenoproteins may interfere with the transcription-driven by oxidative stress-dependent signaling mechanisms to influence … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,346 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Mixing on the Biological Degradation of Toluene under Aerobic ConditionsAbdel E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, K. MartinellThe effectiveness of in-vessel bioremediation in reducing the concentration of toluene in contaminated soil under continuous and intermittent mixing conditions using invessel composting system. The results showed that there was a startup period (60 h) during which the average temperature rose from 21 to 32 and 40°C (and then remained constant) for the bioreactors with continuous and intermittent mixing, respectively. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetoxification of Heavy Metal Contaminated SoilsFloarea Damian, Gheorghe DamianThe concentration of the heavy metals in the soils from the strong affected zones because of the mining and metallurgical industry, Baia Mare and Zlatna (Romania), is significant due to the high values of the contents and association of the four metals Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd. The efficacy of the natural zeolites in heavy metals immobilization from the studied soils … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Role of Sulfuric Acid In Production of Multicomponent Fertilizers From Renewable SourcesHelena Górecka, Henryk Górecki, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.The paper discusses the possibility of using renewable sources: slaughter wastes and wood ashes in the production of NPK fertilizers. The content of macronutrients, micronutrients and toxic elements in these materials was reported. In the present work, poultry feathers were used as fertilizer source of nitrogen, animal bones as the source of phosphorus and wood ash as the source of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Extraction and Fractionation Period on the Yield of a Tropical Peat Soil (Hemists) Humic AcidsSusilawati Kasim, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Khanif YusopThe isolation of humic acids from soils is laborious and time consuming. Factors that affect the yield of humic acids isolated from soils include extraction, fractionation and purification periods. This study was conducted to investigate whether a relationship could be separately established between extraction time, fractionation time, and the yield of humic acids of a tropical peat soil (Hemists), as … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Nitrogen and Potassium Uptake and Efficiency of Two Rice Varieties Cultivated on an Acid SoilShajarutulwardah Mohd Yusob, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Wan Asrina Wan Yahaya, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidA pot study was carried with the following objectives: (i) To investigate N and K uptake of MR 220 and ARC 2 rice varieties grown on Bekenu series (Tipik Tualemkuts), and (ii) To investigate N and K use efficiency of MR 220 and ARC 2 grown on Bekenu series. Treatments evaluated were: (i) MR 220 and ARC 2 under fertilized … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWound Healing Process of Uncomplicated “Rusterholz” Ulcer, Following Treatment by Wooden Block and Hoofgel® in Bovine Hoof: Histopathological AspectsH. Azarabad, I. Nowrouzian, E. Soleymani et al.A broad and very detailed histopathological knowledge on cutaneous wound healing particularly in human skin is available, but few studies have documented this event in bovine claw sole ulcers. It seems the mechanism of wound healing might be basically the same followed by second intention healing which is finished in a period of time by formation of granulation tissue in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,853 accessesView PDFCite
