Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaser-Induced Breakdown and Detonation in Particle-Laden SystemsKonstantin VolkovSimulation of the interaction of a laser pulse with gas-droplet and gas-particle mixtures plays an important role in environmental and engineering applications. The injection of liquid droplets or metal particle causes optical breakdown on the individual droplet or particle and leads to a drop of the detonation minimum pulse energy of the mixture. Mathematical models of various stages of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2015 · 7,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTESTING CARBOXYMETHYL CELLULASE ACTIVITY SECRETED BY TRICHOPHYTON TERRESTRE IN CARBOXYMETHYL CELLULOSE SOLUTIONMansoor Ahmad Lone, Sanjay Sahay, Ravinder, DeepakThe techniques employed for bioconversion of cellulosic biomass to simple sugars by cellulases have a great industrial brunt. Cold-adapted microorganisms are potential resource of cold-active carboxymethyl cellulases secluded from the cold regions. In this study, Trichophyton terrestre-a rare fungal species in Indian soils, isolated from the rhizosphere of Juglans regia L. during winter season was subjugated for the production and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2015 · 7,680 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGRAPHENE OXIDE AS ANTIMICROBIAL AGAINST TWO GRAM-POSITIVE AND TWO GRAM-NEGATIVE BACTERIA IN ADDITION TO ONE FUNGUSRoda F. Al-Thani, Noorunnisa Khanam Patan, Mariam A. Al-MaadeedGraphene based materials have wide potential applications in biology, biomedical, agriculture environmental and biotechnology. Graphene Oxide (GO) is one of those materials and has a promising substance as antimicrobial agents. GO in this study was prepared by a modified Hummers method and was characterized by different techniques for confirmation of formation of GO. To study the antimicrobial activities of GO, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 14 Oct 2014 · 9,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING SOIL RESPIRATION AS AN INDICATOR OF SOIL MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN RECLAIMED METAL CONTAMINATED LANDSKassandre Goupil, Kabwe NkongoloMining, roasting as well as smelting of these elements have caused sulphur dioxide fumigations and metal particulate depositions which have led to various detrimental effects on the overall environmental quality of the Greater Sudbury region. Soil amendment and revegetation within the Greater Sudbury Region were initiated to restore the damage land. Several methods have been used to assess the progress … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 11 Jul 2014 · 8,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE STUDIES ON DOWNDRAFT GASIFIER WITH BIOMASS ENERGY SOURCES AVAILABLE IN REMOTE VILLAGESV. ChristusJeya Singh, S. Joseph Sekhar, K. ThyagarajanIncreasing global concern over the environmental issues and depletion of fossil fuels, significant interest has been shown by the researchers to develop alternate energy technologies like biomass, biogas, solar to meet the future energy demand. The prediction of the performance of different biomass energy sources in gasifiers is needed for the implementation of this technology to fulfil the need of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 4 Feb 2014 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Worldview-2 Satellite Imagery to Support Geoscience Studies on Phlegraean AreaPasquale Maglione, Claudio Parente, Andrea VallarioWorldView-2 satellite imagery includes half-meter panchromatic resolution and 2 m multispectral resolution. Because of the reduced dimensions of pixels and articulated spectral acquisition these images supply detailed information that can be used for geoscience applications, above all to investigate areas, identify land cover, bound vegetated zones, outline transformations (change detection). The aim of this study is to remark possibilities to … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Relay Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Data Mining ApproachS. Nithyakalyani, S. Suresh KumarProblem statement: Nowadays sensors are very essential for today life to monitor environment where human cannot get involved very often. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are used in many real world applications like environmental monitoring, traffic control, trajectory monitoring. It is more challenging for sensor network to sense and collect a large amount of data which are continuous over time, which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 14 Jul 2012 · 7,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dose-Response of Zinc and Manganese on Siderophores ProductionMehri Ines, Khessairi Amel, Turki Yousra et al.Problem statement: This study was conducted to find and determine whether the siderophores of the four environmental Pseudomonas spp. isolates possess a sequestering activity towards essential transition metals (Zn and Mn) other than iron. Approach: Four fluorescent Pseudomonads isolated from various environments, were characterized analytically (Isoelectric focusing), biologically (pyoverdine-mediated uptake) and genetically (16S rDNA sequencing). By means of spectrophotometric measurements, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2012 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite
