Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying Nutrient Contributors in North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater RiversNarayan B. Rajbhandari, Sushama Pradhan, Mauro Di Luzio et al.The goal of this study was to assess potential nitrogen and phosphorus contribution from point sources and non-point sources in North East Cape Fear River (NECFR) watershed in North Carolina. A watershed scale hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was used to quantify Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phosphorus (TP) loadings to North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater Rivers. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,393 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioanalytical Method Validation and Quantification of Flupirtine in Canine Plasma by HPLC with Spectrofluorimetric DetectionVirginia De Vito, Alessandro Saba, Helen Owen, Mario GiorgiFlupirtine (FLU) is a non-opioid analgesic drug belongs to the class of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) antagonist without antipyretic or antiphlogistic properties. No analytical method to detect FLU in canine plasma samples through a fluorimetric detector has been published to date. The analytical method described in this work provides a selective and accurate quantification of FLU. The mobile phase consisted of ACN:AcONH4 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2015 · 7,986 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Effects of Application of Silica Fume to Reduce Asphalt Oxidative AgingNader Abutalib, Elham H. Fini, Sassan Aflaki, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis paper investigates the feasibility of using silica fume to enhance the rheological properties of asphalt binder. It has been widely reported that asphalt binder oxidation is one of the phenomena that reduces the service life of asphalt pavement by negatively impacting its rheological properties. This in turn can lead to a more brittle pavement which is more prone to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2015 · 8,492 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFar-Red Spectrum of Second Emerson Effect: A Study Using Dual-Wavelength Pulse Amplitude Modulation FluorometryV. S. Lysenko, T. V. Varduny, E. I. Simonovich et al.Non-additive enhancement of the photosynthesis excited by simultaneous illumination with far-red light and light of shorter wavelengths is called as "second Emerson effect". Its action spectra are well-known as a photosynthetic yield's dependence on light wavelength in red (630-690 nm) spectral region at a constant-wavelength far-red illumination near 700-715 nm. However, the opposite dependence of the photosynthetic yield's of shorter … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2014 · 7,960 accessesView PDF Cite
