Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterogeneous Modeling, Identification and Simulation of Activated Sludge ProcessesIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem statement: The activated sludge system is a complex dynamic process and must account for a large number of reactions between large numbers of components. There is necessity for simulation models which describe the dynamic behavior of the activated sludge process. The application of the models in most treatment plants is limited due to lack of appropriate data acquisition and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Stages of Maturity and Ripening Conditions on the Biochemical Characteristics of TomatoK.M. Moneruzzaman, A.B.M.S. Hossain, W. Sani, M. SaifuddinAn experiment was carried out to evaluate the biochemical characteristics of tomato in different maturity stages and ripening conditions. Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) fruits (cv. Ruma VF) were harvested at the three maturity stages viz., mature green, half ripen and full ripen and stored at three condition control (without covering), straw covering and CaC2 + straw covering. At that time … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,046 accessesView PDFCite

(Saffron) Stigma Ethanolic Extract in RatsDaryoush Mohajeri, Ghafour Mousavi, Mehran Mesgari et al.The medicinal properties attributed to Crocus sativus L. (saffron) are extensive. The safety of saffron is important in relation to its medicinal applications. This study was performed to elucidate the possible toxic effects of ethanolic extract of Crocus sativus L. stigma on liver, kidney and some hematological parameters in rats. Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups of eight … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Diabetic Activity of a Fraction from Cissus verticillata and Tyramine, its Main Bioactive Constituent, in Alloxan-Induced Diabetic RatsCleide de Sousa Lino, Thiago de P. Sales, Patrícia B. Gomes et al.Cissus verticillata (syn. C. sycioides, fam. Vitaceae) is a medicinal plant popularly used in Brazil, for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The anti-diabetic activity of a fraction from leaves of Cissus verticilllata (MSF, methanol soluble fraction), as well as that of tyramine (TYR) were investigated, in the model of alloxan-induced diabetes, in male Wistar rats. The biochemical parameters studied were: … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,627 accessesView PDFCite
