Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Oxidant and Enzyme-Inhibitory Potential of Marine StreptomycesT. Revathy, M. A. Jayasri, K. SuthindhiranMarine actinomycetes are potential source for the discovery of novel compounds and enzymes. Though extensive research on marine actinomycetes is underway globally, the actinomycetes research from Indian marine ecosystem is unexplored and understudied. Hence, the present research is focussed on the screening of bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes isolated from Indian coastal region. This study is designed to determine the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Study Between Volume and Overall Acceptability of Cake with Properties of Hard Wheat FlourHanee Al-DmoorThe most important factor in cakes making is the availability of soft wheat flour. Sometimes cake flour is producing by milling hard wheat because the shortage of soft wheat flour. The aim of this study is to identify a specification for production cake flour from hard wheat which gives a high quality of cake products. Protein %, ash %, wet … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 6 Jul 2013 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Leaf Anatomy of Selected Species in Vitaceae and LeeaceaeChnar Najmaddin, Khatijah Hussin, Haja MaideenLeea species was originally placed in the family Vitaceae but was later placed in the Leeaceae due to the anatomical differences between the two families and between species. A study on the anatomical difference in leaves of four species in the Vitaceae (Tetrastigma cruciatum, Pterisanthes miquelii, Cissus hastata and Nothocissus spicifera) and two species from Leeaceae (Leea rubra and Leea … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 28 Apr 2013 · 7,395 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOCHEMICAL, NUTRIENT AND INHIBITORY CHARACTERISTICS OF STREPTOMYCES CULTURED FROM A HYPERSALINE ESTUARY, THE LAGUNA MADRE (TEXAS)Luis E. Espinoza, Anita L. Davelos Baines, Kristine L. LoweStreptomyces are common soil bacteria that produce secondary metabolites, including several antibiotics; however, the characteristics of marine Streptomyces are largely unknown. Sediment samples were taken from 3 sites in the Laguna Madre to isolate marine Streptomyces. Sediment was diluted, spread onto synthetic seawater media to estimate the total bacterial density of the samples and spread onto starch casein agar to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Anatomical Study between Cayratia Mollissima, Pterisanthes Caudigera (Vitaceae) and Leea Indica (Leeaceae)Chnar Najmaddin, Khatijah Hussin, Haja MaideenProblem statement: Leea species was originally placed in the family Vitaceae but was later placed in the Leeaceae due to the anatomical differences between the two families. Approach: A comparative study on the stem and leaf anatomy of Cayratia mollissima and Pterisanthes caudigera (Vitaceae) and Leea indica (Leeaceae) was conducted to investigate anatomical differences which could provide additional differentiating characters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBoric Acid Toxicity Trials on the Wood Borer Heterobostrychus aequalis Waterhouse (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae)Daljit Karam Singh, Faizah Abood, Hazandy Abdul-Hamid et al.Abstract: Problem statement: The Heterobostrychus aequalis Waterhouse was a serious pest lumber of timber heveawood. The H. aequalis infest and tunnel along the wood grain, depositing eggs, which concomitantly turn into larvae and reduces the wood starch to a soft powder. The objectives of the study were to establish a suitable method for preservative trials on the wood borer and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 10,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of L-Carnitine and Cinnamon on Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Expression in Heart and Brain of Insulin Resistant RatsMona A. MohamedProblem statement: Evaluate the effects of daily administration of L-carnitine and cinnamon extract for two weeks on the expression of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) and inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase (iNOS) genes in cardiac and brain tissues of rats with Insulin Resistance (IR). Approach: Rats were divided into 4 groups (8 animals each): Group (1) rats fed control diet (60% starch) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Enzyme Supplementation on Performance, Carcass characteristics, Carcass Composition and Some Blood Parameters of Broiler ChickenH. HajatiProblem statement: Endogenous enzymes of broilers cannot adequately digest nonstarch polysaccharides and subsequently the ingestion of high levels of soluble NSP leads to increased digesta viscosity and reduced nutrient digestibility and absorption. Supplementation of NSPs degrading enzymes may remove the anti nutritive effects of NSPs and release some nutrients (starch, protein) from these elements. Therefore, in a completely randomized design … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,649 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlkali Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cattails from Constructed WetlandsBo Zhang, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang et al.Problem statement: To date, production of liquid fuel, particularly ethanol, has only been economically feasible from food crops that are high in sugar and starch. However, the use of arable land for fuel rather than for food production and the use of a food source for fuel rather than as food have created issues in prices and availability of traditional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Flavomycin on Ruminal Fermentation, In Situ Degradability and In Vivo Digestibility in Bovine Fed Sugarcane DietsS.M. Mogentale, E.J.A. Silva, P.M. Meyer et al.Problem statement: The aim of the present study was to characterize and differentiate the effects of addition of flavomycin or monensin on ruminal fermentation and degradability as well as on total digestibility in bovine.
