Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPb Removal from Contaminated Water Using EDTA with Colocasiaesculenta (L.) Schott at Klity Creek, Kanchanaburi, ThailandPantawat Sampanpanish, Yotsavanun HongpiriyakulThis study investigated lead (Pb) removal using a plant called‘Elephant Ear’ (Colocasiaesculenta (L.) Schott) from contaminated waterat Klity Creek, located in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. Plants weregrown in contaminated water with lead carbonate (Pb(CO3)2) in a nursery. The experiment was divided into 4 sets; (1) With Pb but without EDTA, (2) With Pb and EDTA 0.01 millimole (mM) per liter (mM … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 4 May 2018 · 8,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetabolite Profiles of Arsenic Tolerant Plants Regenerated from Stem Calli of Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees using HPLC and 1D 1H NMRJ. Vijayakumar, P. Ponmanickam, P. Samuel et al.In vitro culture provide a suitable condition for regeneration of arsenic tolerant plants from stem calli of Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees. The regenerated plants could be valuable material applicable to soil remediation. In vitro culture of stem explants on MS basal salts, 3.0% sucrose, 0.8% agar medium fortified with various concentrations of As2O3 (0.0-9.0 µM) along with NAA (3.5 mg … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2017 · 7,867 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Tunnel Face Stability through a Ground Stress Analysis with a Hemispherical Geometry ApproximationPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the stability of the excavation face is an important aspect in the design of a tunnel. When it is not possible to ensure excavation face stability in natural conditions, it is in fact necessary to intervene with remarkably costly reinforcement operations. The analysis of the stability conditions of an excavation face can be conducted, with a certain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 8 Jan 2015 · 6,730 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining Potential Sites for Runoff Water Harvesting using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems-Based Modeling in SinaiHossam H. Elewa, Atef A. Qaddah, Ayman A. El-FeelProblem statement: Sinai is increasingly suffering from an overwhelming water crisis. Runoff Water Harvesting (RWH) could be a solution for this problem. The determined promising drainage basins for RWH could be used by the decision makers to propose appropriate controlling systems to overcome the problem of water scarcity and for implementing runoff farming and rain-fed agriculture. Approach: Remote sensing, geographic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial Effect of Untreated and Treated (Decolorized) Dyes by Agricultural WastesSibel Kahraman, Pelin YalcinToxicity (antibacterial effect) of untreated and treated (decolorized) dyes on a soil bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was determined. Low cost and easily available two agricultural residues (cotton stalk and apricot seed) as biosorbents were used to remove Astrazone Black and Astrazone Yellow from aqueous solution. The removal of these dyes with agricultural wastes reduced the toxic effect on P. aeruginosa. This … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMPACT OF THE POLYMER COATING NUTRISPHERE™ IN INCREASING NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY AND CORN YIELDTimothy A. Smith, Ronnie W. Heiniger, Pawel WiatrakCurrently, it is estimated that 50 to 60% of the N applied fertilizer is actually utilized by the crop with the remaining N lost through leaching or denitrification. A three year study was conducted at eight locations in North Carolina to examine the impact of Nutrisphere™ on corn yield, optimum N rate, maximum yield, tissue N concentration, plant biomass and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2013 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,432 accessesView PDFCite
