Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmart Retrofit Solutions of Buildings toward a Low Carbon WorldErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn this short communication, energy-efficient, eco-friendly and low-cost solutions for existing buildings are considered in a holistic manner toward low/zero carbon building concept of near future. Buildings are still responsible for about 40% of total primary energy consumption in the world, hence decisive measures need to be taken promptly due to growing significance of environmental issues driven by fossil fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2018 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Decreasing Temperature on Soil Microbial Activity in a Boreal Shield EcozoneAlistar Moy, Kabwe NkongoloAlthough the focus on warming is imperative to address climate change, addressing the effects of cooling is arguably just as relevant in characterizing the enzyme response to temperature fluctuations. In this study, the response of enzyme activity to diminishing temperatures in the field was evaluated. The targeted sites were located in the City of Greater Sudbury in Northern Ontario, Canada. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2022 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards Low Emission Development: Prospects of Applying MBIs in the Industrial Sector of Central Java, IndonesiaAgung Sugiri, Imam BuchoriIn dealing with pollution or emission, including in encouraging Low Emission Development (LED) as an acceptable strategy for climate change mitigation, Indonesia applies Command and Control (CAC) approach through regulations on environmental and pollution standards. However, the enforcement is characterized by weak monitoring and controlling due to aspects like non-compliant industries and lack of personnel and equipment of the corresponding … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 11 Jun 2016 · 8,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Effects of Water Conditioning on the Adhesion Properties of Crack SealantAhmed Lamarre, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis paper investigates the effect of water exposure on three different crack sealants commonly used in cold, moderate and hot climates. It is hypothesized that water penetrates into the interface between crack sealant and substrates causing progressive adhesion failure and that the rate of failure varies depending on the sealant’s surface chemistry as relates to its interaction with water molecules … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 14 Mar 2016 · 8,783 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 abstractUsing Culture, Policy and Traditional Knowledge to Improve Engagement in Science CoursesLawrence K. Duffy, Catherine Hurt Middlecamp, Anna Godduhn, Cindy E. FabbriProblem statement: In our undergraduate science courses, we need to engage students by including the current issues and concerns of our students as well as recognizing the place-based context in which they learn. Including culture, policy and traditional knowledge when it intersects with a chemical principle and a challenging real world issue adds concreteness to the scientific process. Approach: Science … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeasonal Variations in Semen Quality of Pasundan Bulls in their Native Tropical EnvironmentNurul Isnaini, Tri Harsi, Anggit Damaratri Lapoliwa et al.The success of artificial insemination highly depends on the semen quality, in which it may significantly associate with the environmental factor. However, the information regarding the seasonal effects on semen quality of Pasundan bulls is still scarce. This study aimed to examine seasonal variation in semen quality of Pasundan bulls in their native environment. A total of 203 ejaculates produced … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2021 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Factors Influencing the Reproduction of Non-Gregarious Locust Pests in Northern Kazakhstan to Substantiate the Forecast of their Number and Planning of Protective MeasuresKurmet Baibussenov, Aigul Bekbaeva, Valery Azhbenov et al.The article presents the results of many years of research on the phytosanitary state of agricultural land for non-gregarious locust pests. As polyphagous pests, non-gregarious locusts are one of the key destabilizing factors in the production of economically important agricultural plants in the agricultural regions of Northern Kazakhstan. Research on the long-term population dynamics of non-gregarious locust pests to determine … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2021 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
