Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnder WaterRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria Petrescu, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuWith a 361 million square Km surface and a volume of 1370 million of cubic kilo, world seas and oceans have represented and still remain the privileged space for living species evolution. Other than being the 70% of the Earth surface, water environment, contrary to the terrestrial one where life essentially develops in 2 dimensions, is a 3D fully volume … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 10 Jun 2017 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Au@TiO2 NWs and their Catalytic Activity by Water Splitting: A Comparative Study with Degussa P25Abniel Machín, María Cotto, José Ducongé et al.Different amount of gold nanoparticles (1, 3, 5, 10 wt%) were deposited on the surface of synthesized titanium oxide nanowires (TiO2 NWs) and Degussa P25 (TiO2-P25). The results evidenced the presence of small and dispersed gold particles on the surface of TiO2 NWs and TiO2-P25 and an increase in the specific surface area of all the composites. The photocatalytic activity … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 8,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Analysis of Six Pharmaceuticals using Online Solid Phase Extraction Liquid ChromatographySiti Norbayu Mohd Subari, Rozita Osman, Norashikin SaimIn this study, three parameters (sample volume, cleanup and elution step) in large volume injection online Solid Phase Extraction Liquid Chromatography with diode array detection (SPE-LC) were optimized for the determination of six pharmaceuticals in wastewater samples. Preconcentration and separation were carried out using 2 columns, Dionex Ion Pac AG14A and Acclaim Polar Advantage II. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 31 Mar 2017 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Diurnal Variation of Dissolved Oxygen in a Eutrophic Polymictic ReservoirAnusha BalangodaTo evaluate the diurnal and seasonal Dissolved Oxygen (DO) variations and their effects on water quality, a comprehensive study was conducted in a eutrophic polymictic reservoir under artificially aerated and non-aerated conditions. The effect of aeration among sampling locations and along the water column of DO and DO saturation and diurnal variation of DO, water temperature, pH and conductivity was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2017 · 8,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of BTEX: Optimization through Response Surface MethodologyAyat E. El Telib, Muftah H. El-Naas, Janice A. AcioResponse Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the biodegradation of Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene and m-, o-, p-Xylene (BTEX) by Pseudomonas putida immobilized in PVA matrices in a specially-designed novel Spouted Bed Bioreactor System (SBBS). A mixture of 60 mg L-1 of BTEX compounds in air was contacted with the immobilized bacteria in three spouted bed bioreactors in series. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2017 · 8,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization, Characterization and Antioxidant Activities of Selenized Polysaccharides from Hypsizygus marmoreusTing Liu, Xue Jiang, Wei Wang, Bing XuIn this study, hypsizygus marmoreus was used as raw material to extract polysaccharides by hot water extraction method. Preparation technology of Selenized Polysaccharides from Hypsizygus marmoreus (SPHM) and its antioxidant activities were investigated. Chelation rate was selected as the index, effects of initial concentration of sodium selenite (mg/mL), the mass ratio of polysaccharide to sodium selenite, chelation time and pH … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 8 Aug 2019 · 7,781 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Variability of Indonesian Throughflow in Sumba Strait and Its Linkage to the Climate EventsAhmad Bayhaqi, Yueng-Djern Lenn, Dewi Surinati et al.As one of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) outflow passages, the Sumba Strait is a meeting point for the Pacific and the Indian Ocean water mass.
