Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Comparison of Spectrophotometric Method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography in Photosynthetic Pigments AnalysisSabina Jodłowska, Adam LatałaProblem statement: Spectrophotometric method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) are the most useful tools to photosynthetic pigments analysis. The main objective of this reaserch was to compere the results obtained by these two independent methods in experiments under controlled laboratory conditions. Approach: Comparison between spectrophotometric and HPLC methods for pigment analysis was carried out on Baltic cyanobacterium Geitlerinema amphibium, which … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 10,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Sensitizer for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Using Three Layers of Photoelectrode Thin Films with a Schottky BarrierHo Chang, Mu-Jung Kao, Tien-Li Chen et al.Problem statement: This study combines Au nanoparticles with TiO2 nanoparticles to form a Schottky barrier and applies it to the photoelectrode thin film of Dye-Sensitized Solar cells (DSSCs). Approach: First, commercial TiO2 powder (Degussa P25) was put into the alkaline solution to prepare TiO nanotubes (Tnt) by a hydrothermal process. Tnt were sintered at 550° to obtain TntC550 particles and … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Proteomics Analysis of Drought Stress-Responsive Proteins as Biomarker for Drought-Tolerant Sugarcane CultivarsNisachon Jangpromma, Supansa Kitthaisong, Khomsorn Lomthaisong et al.Problem statement: The prime objective in breeding selection process of drought-tolerant sugarcane is to identify the correlating marker, which could lead to rapid screening for drought-tolerant cultivars. In this study, we have reported an unknown 18-kDa protein (p18) along with other stress-inducible proteins to be highly expressed in sugarcane leaves under drought stress condition. Approach: The 2D-PAGE patterns of proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHyperspectral Remote Sensing for Tropical Rain ForestKamaruzaman Jusoff, Kasawani IbrahimProblem statement: Sensing, mapping and monitoring the rain forest in forested regions of the world, particularly the tropics, has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years as deforestation and forest degradation account for up to 30% of anthropogenic carbon emissions and are now included in climate change negotiations. Approach: We reviewed the potential for air and spaceborne hyperspectral … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,581 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTreatment of Wastewater by Natural Lagoon for its Reuse in IrrigationM. Driche, D. Abdessemed, G. NezzalThe process of natural lagoon consists in purifying the waste water by simple flow of the effluent in not very deep ponds where proliferate bacteria, algae and other living organisms, under a surrounding air and in the presence of a solar radiation. For this study, which is spread out over 3 years (2004-2006) and which still continues, we chose the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFoliar and Soil Application of Potassium Nitrate Affects the Tolerance of Salinity and Canopy Growth of Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne var Boulevard)S.J. Tabatabaei, F. FakhrzadTwo experiments were conducted to determine the effect of KNO3 application on perennial ryegrass salinity tolerance. Two NaCl levels (0 and 60 mM) factorially combined with four KNO3 (KN) levels (0, 5, 10 and 15 mM) as the treatments. The KN was applied either to the soil or foliarly sprayed. The results showed that in both experiments the increased salinity … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,060 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Magnesium on Photosynthetic Characteristics and Growth Effects of Sugarcane at Seedling StageChao Zheng, Yong-Xiang Huang, Ke-Xing LiuIn this study, the effects of different concentrations of magnesium on photosynthetic characteristics and growth of sugarcane cultivars Roc22 and YT00-236 at seedling stage were investigated by combined cultivation of sand culture with nutrient solution. The results showed that under the stress of low magnesium, the synthesis and photosynthesis of chlorophyll are blocked with significantly decreased biomass accumulation, increased root-shoot … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2019 · 8,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Eutrophication State of Ecbatan Reservoir using Carlson IndexMaryam Ghashghaie, Mohammad Reza Serajian Maralan, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari et al.Reservoirs are vital and necessary resources of potable water. Different sectors such as agriculture, industry and fishery are dependent on these resources which need high quality water. Water quality is mainly evaluated using different parameters such as pH, temperature and turbidity which are easily measured. Also there are some more complicated parameters such as eutrophication degree of a water body. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2018 · 8,476 accessesView PDFCite
