Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeroprevalence of Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Syphilis Infections among Patients Attending the STD, Gyn. and Obs., ANC Clinics of Northern India: Observations from Seven Rounds of Sentinel Surveillance (1998-2004)Tahziba Hussain, K. K. Kulshreshtha, V. S. Yadav et al.The data of HIV sentinel surveillance, i.e., National Annual Sentinel Surveillance (NASS) carried out under the aegis of National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO) of seven rounds revealed that the prevalence of HIV infection is less among the attendees of STD, Obs. & Gyn., Antenatal ( ANC) clinics whereas that of Syphilis is high. This study was carried in order to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRiemann Estimation for Replicated Environmental Sampling DesignsLucio Barabesi, Marzia marcheselliIn many environmental surveys the population under study is made up of biological units scattered over a planar region. A variable is considered on each unit and the target parameter generally turns out to be the population total of the variable. In order to estimate the population total, field scientists commonly replicate a suitable design on the study region. Replicated … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Water Quality in RiversLiren Yu, N. N.B. SalvadorThis study reports a PC software, used in a Windows-based environment, which was developed based on the first order reaction of Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) and a modified Streeter and Phelps equation, in order to simulate and determine the variations of Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and of the BOD along with the studied river reaches. The software considers many impacts of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiotic and Abiotic Factors of Sperm nDNA Fragmentation in Farm AnimalsBaylar Iolchiev, Natalya Volkova, Pavel Klenovitskiy et al.Infertility and subfertility are among the global challenges of our time. Fertility in livestock farming is not only biologically important, it is also economically important. The aim of this study was to study the effect of these factors on sperm chromatin nucleus and to assess the impact of the fragmentation index degree on bull reproductive performance. The influence of abiotic … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2021 · 6,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract2D Kinematic Quantification of Soil Particles around Growing Plant Root based on Optical MechanicsWenbin Wu, Jian ZhaoThe quantitative kinematic description of the surrounding soil particles during root growth is a technical challenge and biologically important. In this study, a two-dimensional camera-based imaging system was used to observe micro scale interactions between plant roots and soil particles. Maize root tip was imaged during ingress into the soils. This produced a series of two-dimensional images that represent temporal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 21 Oct 2020 · 6,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Pachyrrizus erosus Extract on the Thrips Attack Phenomenon (Thripidae) in Capsicum annuum L. LeaveTasmin Tangngareng, Asni Johari, Ratna Sari Dewi et al.Thrips are one of the main pests of chili plants. Until now, the method of controlling pests and diseases that are considered highly effective is the chemical method. Chemical controls have a major impact on environmental damage. One alternative that can be done is to control biologically using yam seed extract (Pachyrrizus erosus Urban). This study aims to analyze the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2019 · 7,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening and Characterization of Sponge-Associated Bacteria Producing Bioactive Compounds Anti-Vibrio sp.Aris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Wenang Maharsiwi, Rika Indri AstutiIn Indonesia, vibriosis is the main disease in shrimp. This disease is caused by Vibrio sp that may decrease the productivity of shrimp cultivation. Thus, exploration for new bioactive compounds as vibriosis biocontrol agent is necessary. Marine sponge-associated bacteria is one of many sources for bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to screen marine sponge-associated bacteria producing anti-Vibrio … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2018 · 10,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing Astragaloside Production in Astragalus membranaceus through Growth Media and AuxinsYun Ji Park, Jae Kwang Kim, Sang Un ParkThe secondary metabolites of triterpenoid saponins, isoflavonoids and polysaccharides are present in Astragalus membranaceus those are biologically active. Astragalosides are a major group of identified compounds that have various pharmacological properties. The present study was considered to enhance astragaloside biosynthesis in hairy root cultures of A. membranaceus by using different growth media and concentrations of different auxins. Our findings revealed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 25 Jan 2018 · 7,887 accessesView PDFCite
