Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsToxicology of Nanomaterials on ZebrafishJimmy De León, María del C. Cotto, Francisco MárquezIncreases in the use and the progressive manufacture of new Engineered Nanomaterials (ENMs) lead to inquire about their impact on the environment. Due to the small size, high reactivity inside organisms and the unusual physicochemical properties of the ENMs, the predictions of toxicity are very complex. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been granted as a practical alternative to study the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 29 May 2019 · 7,784 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTRANSCRIPTION ACTIVATOR-LIKE EFFECTOR NUCLEASES-AMAZING TOOL FOR GENOME EDITINGAvantika Singh, Vivek Pratap SinghTranscription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs) are used to cut specific target DNA sequence in order to knock out a gene or to change its sequence. They are formed by the fusion of TALE protein serving as DNA binding domain along with non-specific DNA cleaving nucleases. Its specificity towards DNA bases in the target sequence is derived from the structure of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTrace Elements Distribution in the Brain of Stressed RatsZerrouk Kamal, Mohamed Najimi, Mohammed Chigr et al.Because of their ability to modulate the Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) a receptor complex, the principal aim of the current work is to assess two essential heavy metals: Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) by atomic absorption in different brain areas of stressed rats. To do so, we investigated the effect of acute immobilization stress (single 1-hour session) on the distribution … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 14 Sep 2012 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNanocrystalline Zn0.9Mn0.1S Thin Film: Case StudiesMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Noor Azie Azura Mohd Arif, Abang Anuar Ehsan, Sahbudin ShaariProblem statement: The high quality of ZnS:Mn nanocrystals is important in nanotechnology industries. The perfect chemical procedure is significant to produce the best of nanocrystals. Hence, this research is concern on the good chemical method in processing manganese doped zinc sulphide nanocrystals. Approach: For the first step, Mn doped ZnS nanocrystals were synthesized by using sol gel spin coating method. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 8,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLow-doping Effects of Nanostructure ZnO: Sn tin films annealed at different temperature in Nitrogen ambient to be applied as an Anti-reflecting coating (ARC)H. Abdullah, M.N. Norazia, S. Shaari et al.Problem statement: The focus of this research is to discover the significant influences of substituting low concentration Sn at Zn-site as an Anti-Reflecting Coating (ARC) for Zn1-xSnxO compound. The effects of tin dopants on the structural and morphology properties of ZnO thin films prepared using the sol-gel method were investigated. Approach: The effects of annealing temperature on the deposited films … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrobial Response to the Application of Amendments in a Contaminated Soil with Trace ElementsA. Branzini, M. S. Zubillaga, M. M. ZubillagaProblem Statement: The anthropogenic activities can cause adverse effects in soils, increasing in some situations trace elements contents, impacting negatively both the microbial biomass and activity. Among the practices used for the recovery of soil quality we can find the application of organic amendments or the product of their composting. These can adsorb trace elements decreasing their availability and increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRed-Cell Trace Minerals in Children with AutismJoan Jory, Woody R. McGinnisAbnormalities in mineral-dependent antioxidant enzymes in children with autism raise interest in the determination of trace mineral status in this population. A cross sectional investigation of red cell mineral levels was carried out among 20 children with autism and 15 controls. Children with autism demonstrated significantly lower red cell selenium (p<0.0006) and higher molybdenum (p<0.01) than the controls. There was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Characterization of Al Bond Pad Surface Treatment in Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) DepositionM.K. Md Arshad, A. Jalar, I. Ahmad, G. OmarThis study reports a number of experiments that were designed to characterize aluminum bond pad surfaces prior to electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG). In the ENIG process, aluminum bond pads need special treatment to achieve successful nickel deposition and provide reliable interconnection of under bump metallurgy in advanced packaging. During this treatment process, the aluminum pad was cleaned, activated and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptical and Structure Analysis of ZnO:Al FilmNeilo Marcos Trindade, Michel Chaves, José Roberto Ribeiro Bortoleto et al.ZnO and ZnO:Al are wide-bandgap semiconductors which have many applications, mainly as transparent conducting films. Thin films of these compounds were deposited onto glass and silicon substrates by RF magnetron sputtering for the investigation of structural and optical characteristics. The XRD results show that the films present wurtzite structure. The formation of a polycrystalline film having a preferential crystallographic orientation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 7,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE GROUP COMPOSITION OF METAL COMPOUNDS IN SOIL AS AN INDEX OF SOIL ECOLOGICAL STATESaglara Sergeevna Mandzhieva, Tatiana Mikhailovna Minkina, Svetlana Nikolaevna Sushkova et al.A system of indices for assessing the soil ecological state as based upon the group composition of heavy metal compounds in soils is proposed. The group composition of heavy metal were determined using combined fractionation including sequential and parallel extractions (1 N NH4Ac, pH 8; 1% EDTA in NH4Ac and 1 N HCl). It was shown that strongly bound compounds … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 7 Dec 2013 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite
