Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMutagenic Screening of Crude Oil Fractions Using Modified Ames Test and Allium cepa (Linn) AssayOlufunsho Awodele, Alade Akintonwa, Sunday O. Olayemi et al.Problem statement: Crude oil which may be broadly characterized as paraffinic or naphthenic is a complex mixture of alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons. About 500,000 workers are employed in crude oil exploration and production worldwide. There have been reports of occupational exposure during drilling, pumping and transportation of crude oil, including maintenance of equipment used for these processes. Thus, skin … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Nitrogen Source and Carbon to Nitrogen Ratio on Hydrogen Production using C. acetobutylicumMohd Sahaid Kalil, Hisham Salem Alshiyab, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffProblem statement: One of the main factors influenced the bacterial productivity and total yield of hydrogen is the nitrogen source and its concentration. Approach: Using different nitrogen source with different concentration on bacterial productivity of hydrogen showed to affect on both bacterial productivity of hydrogen and biomass concentration. Results: Yeast extract as nitrogen source at concentration of 13 g L-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing of Trichoderma viride Cultivation in Submerged State FermentationHayyan Ismaeil Al-Taweil, Mohammad Bin Osman, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YussofProblems statement: A study in Malaysia had shown a strain of Trichoderma viride was isolated from the soil. Questions were raised whether Trichoderma viride submerged state fermentation affected by parameters and which of them is effective? Approach: To investigate the effects of the submerged state fermentation parameters; concentrations of carbon g L-1; (10, 45 and 80), glucose, nitrogen g L-1; … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 10,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedia Improvement for Hydrogen Production Using C. acetobutylicum NCIMB 13357Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Hisham Salem Saleh Alshiyab, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffProblem statement: Some component of fermentation medium showed to reduce the bacterial production of hydrogen. Approach: Reinforced clostridium medium is a selected medium for Clostridium species. Reformulation this medium regarding hydrogen production may focus on such medium composition that enhance or reduce the bacterial productivity. The optimum pH and temperature for hydrogen production were at initial pH of 7.0 and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Environmental Parameters on hydrogen Production using Clostridium Saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4(ATCC 13564)Walid M. Alalayah, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Abdul Amir H. Kadhum et al.Problem statement: Hydrogen gas production by Clostridium can be improved by several ways through media formulation, or suitable environment condition. This study was carried out to investigate the environmental factors effects on hydrogen production using Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 (ATCC 13564). Approach: The environmental factor studied includes initial substrate concentration, initial medium pH, temperature, sparging nitrogen and addition of Fe2+. Results: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement of Biohydrogen Production under Increased the Reactor Size by C. acetobutylicum NCIMB 13357Hisham Salem Alshiyab, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffProblem statement: One of the main factors influenced the bacterial productivity and total yield of hydrogen is the partial pressure of produced gas. A novel solution to enhance the bacterial productivity was through reduction of gas pressure. Approach: Increasing the reactor size showed to enhance the bacterial production of hydrogen. Results: The technique of increasing reactor size resulted to enhance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on Biomass Production in Auricularia polytricha Collected from Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa State, NigeriaS. G. Jonathan, D. D.S. Bawo, D. O. Adejoye, O. F. BriyaiAuricularia polytricha (Mont) Saccardo, were found growing on decaying logs of wood in their large numbers within the marshy riverine ecosystem area of Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The sporophores of this edible mushroom were tissue cultured and biomass production in submerged liquid medium was assessed. This fungus produced best mycelial biomass (340 mg cm-3) at 25°C after 15 days … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Storage Time and Temperature on Serum AnalytesAbdoljalal MarjaniInformation on the measured concentration of serum analytes during storage of serum samples is often incomplete and sometimes contradictory. The 10 analytes have not studied in this area in healthy subjects. The aim of present study was designed to determine the effect of storage time and temperature on the laboratory results of 10 analytes in sera from apparently healthy adult … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrace Metal Effect on Hydrogen Production Using C.acetobutylicumHisham Alshiyab, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffThis study was carried out to study the effect of trace metal addition for hydrogen production The results show that this bacterial need a selected nutrient with selected concentration. The optimum parameters for cultivation were at initial pH of 7.0 and temperature of 30°C. Trace metal addition to the new medium showed that only iron enhanced the H2 yield. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuroprotection Afforded by GABA Against Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation-Induced Injury in Rat Cortical Brain Slices: An Hormetic Dose-Response EffectLorenzo Ricci, Massimo Valoti, Giampietro Sgaragli, Maria FrosiniThe aim of the present investigation was to assess neuroprotection exerted by GABA (100 nM-100 mM) in rat cortical brain slices subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation. Neuronal injury and neuroprotection were assessed by measuring the release of glutamate and lactate dehydrogenase and tissue water content. Results demonstrate that GABA exerted neuroprotective effects according to a U-shaped, hormetic-like, concentration-response curve, … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,166 accessesView PDFCite
