Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation Induced DNA Double Strand Break Studies of a Metal Sensitive Novel Bacterial Isolate from East Calcutta WetlandSanhita Chowdhury, Anindita Chakraborty, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriProblem statement: This study was an attempt to isolate anaerobic microbes with potential for DNA double strand break repair using methanogen specific medium (DSMZ 120) from East Calcutta Wetland in India. It also intended to verify the specificity of the medium for isolation of the desired family of microbe. Approach: Culture based technique was used to obtain the pure isolate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Moving Bed Biofilm Process for Biological Organics and Nutrients Removal from Municipal WastewaterM. Kermani, B. Bina, H. Movahedian et al.In this study, experiments have been conducted to evaluate the organics and nutrients removal from synthetic wastewater by a laboratory scale moving bed biofilm process. For nutrients removal, moving bed biofilm process has been applied in series with anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic units in four separate reactors. Moving bed biofilm reactors were operated continuously at different loading rates of nitrogen … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 9,097 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of a Waste Stabilization Pond in a Rural Area in EgyptMahassen M.E.D. Ghazy, Waled M.E. Senousy, Azza M.A. Aatty, Mohammed KamelThe performance evaluation of the waste stabilization pond (WSP) as a model of domestic wastewater treatment unit in rural area was carried out. The unit comprised of anaerobic, facultative and maturation ponds in two series. The effluents of WSP which are discharged in the drain had the BOD reduced to 109-245 mg L-1 (Mean = 145.3 mg L-1, 50.65% removal), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,528 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractProsthetic Valve Endocarditis Due to Clostridium Limosum: A Case Report and Review of the LiteratureLok Yung, Carl Urban, Negin Niknam, Glenn TurettClostridium limosum is an anaerobic gram positive rod-shaped bacterium found in soil and can cause infections in a variety of animals. Rarely has this organism caused infections in humans. While clostridial prosthetic valve endocarditis is reported infrequently, we document the first human case of prosthetic valve endocarditis as the sole pathogen, due to Clostrdium limosum. …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2019 · 7,771 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractActinomyces Odontolyticus with Klebsiella and Bacteroides Presenting as Facio-Cervical Abscess with Extension to Scalp and no Sinus TractTanveer Mir, Anita Choudhary, Anshu Wadehra et al.Actinomycosis is a rare infectious bacterial disease caused by various Actinomyces species. Being very rare, Actinomyces is easily misdiagnosed. Actinomyces are common commensals of the oral cavity which predispose to local infections. We report a case of a 67-year-old female who initially presented with swelling of the left sided face which later on proved to be a mixed infection with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2019 · 7,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitive and Rapid Detection of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in Jet Fuel by Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Combined with Lateral Flow DipstickZezhen Li, Yun Xiong, Peng Zhu, Hailong HuangThe existence of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB) is one of the significant reasons for the Microbially Influenced Corrosion (MIC) of jet fuel. Especially for the jet fuel stored by military, since jet fuel is stored in the tank for a long time, some oxygen-consuming bacteria such as Amorphotheca resinae and Bacillus Cohn can consume oxygen and generate organic acids at the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2018 · 10,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong-Term Characterization of Landfill Leachate: Impacts of the Tropical Climate on its CompositionJorge Luiz da Paixão Filho, Miriam Gonçalves MiguelThe disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in sanitary landfills produces leachate, whose composition changes depending on the microbial community and the environmental conditions. However, these changes cannot be observed in sanitary landfill because of the superposition of cells, which makes it difficult to determinate the relationship among the phases of biodegradation of MSW, the composition of the leachate and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 14 Mar 2017 · 8,578 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 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 abstractINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,677 accessesView PDFCite
