Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPhosphorus Availability Modulates Bradyrhizobium japonicum’s Impact on Soil Micribial Biomass and Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) Yield in Lubumbashi Tropical SoilsBen Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi et al.Tropical soils in sub-Saharan Africa exhibit low fertility, high acidity, and limited Phosphorus (P) availability, a key nutrient for agricultural productivity and the sustainability of cropping systems. This deficiency, exacerbated by the strong fixation of P in acidic soils, not only limits plant growth but also the efficiency of the nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and Bradyrhizobium … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 13 May 2026 · 1,991 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsFish Pond Storage Preserves Chili Puree, but Nitrogen Flow-Through Fails: Unravelling the MechanismDaimon Syukri, Rina Yenrina, Rini et al.Perishable food preservation in rural and resource-limited settings remains a significant challenge, as conventional techniques frequently depend on synthetic additives or energy-intensive processes incompatible with green chemistry principles. This study evaluated fish pond immersion as a novel, low-cost preservation method for freshly ground chili purée, investigating its efficacy with and without continuous nitrogen gas flow. Chili purée samples were packaged … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2026 · 1,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of Foliar Bio-Based Fertilization on Spring Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) in Reconciling Productivity and Alleviation of Environmental Concerns Under Semi-Arid ConditionsGani Stybayev, Raushan Ramazanova, Kelvin Harrison Diri et al.A two-year randomized field trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of foliar bio-based fertilization on the growth, productivity, grain quality, and soil health of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under semi-arid conditions in Northern Kazakhstan. Four treatments were compared: T0 (100 kg Ammophos, mineral fertilizer control), T1 (50 kg N14P23 + biotreatment), T2 (25 kg N14P23 + biotreatment), and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects Of Ultra-High Pressure and Thermal Treatment on Quality Characteristics of Prepared Mackerel Fish BallsBiaoshi Wang, Xiaojun Hu, Jingqiu Ma, Ying XuSafe and high-quality prepared foods are increasingly preferred by consumers. This study investigates how ultra-high pressure (UHP) and thermal treatment affect the quality characteristics of prepared mackerel fish balls for surimi product manufacturing. Prepared mackerel fish balls were subjected to UHP treatment at 250 or 350 MPa (10 min) and thermal processing (121°C for 13 or 15 min) to establish … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2026 · 2,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Soil Storage at Freezing Temperatures on Soil Enzymatic ActivitiesAinsley Lougheed, Kabwe NkongoloSoil enzyme activities are good indicators of soil health. It has been hypothesized that soil storage before analysis might affect microbial function. The objective of the present study was to determine if soil storage at -20 and -80°C affects soil enzymatic activities. Soil samples were collected and stored for four weeks at -20 and -80°C. Activities of nine enzymes were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2024 · 4,990 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsScreening of Dominant Cellulose-Degrading Microbe in Humus and Optimisation of its Enzyme Producing Conditions and Application Optimization of Enzyme Production Conditions and Evaluation of Efficient Straw Degradation by Penicillium oxalicumGailing Wang, Chendi Li, Yanan Guo et al.The slow degradation of returned straw adversely affects seedling survival rate. To shorten the degradation time of lignin in maize straw in warm temperate regions, a cellulolytic microbial strain that can secrete polymer with high enzymatic activity was isolated from the humus, which helped to identify an effective strain to expedite the decomposition of returned maize straw. Using the molecular … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 23 May 2023 · 5,303 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Contamination Degree of Characteristic Fungi in Jet Fuel Detected by ATP BioluminescenceZezhen Li, Yun Xiong, Bo Chen, ZhenQiao MaAdenosine Triphosphate (ATP) lysate of the characteristic fungi in jet fuel was screened and three fluorescein-luciferase systems were compared in the paper. The correlation between ATP bioluminescence and traditional plate count for measuring the number of microorganism was also investigated and then a method of detecting the contamination degree of the characteristic fungi of jet fuel by ATP bioluminescence were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 28 May 2018 · 10,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBacteria Contaminants and their Antibiotic Sensitivity from Selected Herbal Medicinal Products from Eldoret and Mombasa, KenyaLucia Keter, Richard Too, Nicholas Mwikwabe et al.Herbal products are used worldwide for the treatment and prevention of various diseases and currently represent a substantial proportion of the global drug market. However, these products have the potential of being contaminated by different microorganisms due to poor hygienic practices during handling, processing and packaging. The main aim of this study was to evaluate microbial quality of herbal products … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2016 · 17,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMagnum Opus: Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats Biology and Prokaryotic Gene SilencingPrem Saran Tirumalai, Ashim Kumar BagchiGene Silencing was a technology that was established in eukaryotic system a decade ago and is being used as a research tool widely. However, prokaryotic gene silencing was not workable, till recently a team of researchers from the University of Georgia have proved it possible. Where they have shown that short motif sequences determines the targets of the prokaryotic Clustered … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2013 · 7,150 accessesView PDFCite
