Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGetting an Alternative Pitch Binder by Thermal Dissolution of CoalPeter Nikolayevich Kuznetsov, Elena Nikolaevna Marakushina, Anastasia Valerievna Kazbanova et al.The process of thermal dissolution of medium metamorphosed coals in anthracene oil to produce an alternative pitch binder was studied. The process was carried out at temperatures from 350 to 400°C and pressure not higher than 2.5 MPa, without the use of hydrogen and catalysts. It was determined that during thermal dissolution hard coal of gaseous-fat grade demonstrated a higher … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2016 · 8,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHistorical Changes in Polychlorinated Biphenyls Contaminated SedimentsViet D. Dang, David M. Walters, Cindy M. LeeProblem statement: PCBs contamination continues to pose a health risk to aquatic environments due to their recalcitrance and bioaccumulation. The Sangamo Weston/Twelvemile Creek/Lake Hartwell Superfund Site is an example of such a health risk as a result of PCBs discharged from a former capacitor manufacturing plant. We conducted a study in twelvemile creek (Clemson, SC, USA) to examine the temporal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2012 · 7,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Field Study of the Fates of Arsenal and Escort Applied on the Cumberland Plateau in TennesseeJohn Harwood, Rong JiangProblem statement: The low organic soils of the Cumberland Plateau, as well as the karst geology of the region, may promote increased transport of herbicides outside of application sites. We have studied the fates of imazapyr and metsulfuron-methyl applied to a privately owned tract on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee and compared the field results with herbicide fate predicted by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGermination Time Dependence of Bioactive Compounds and Antioxidant Activity in Germinated Rough Rice (Oryza sativa L.)Anuchita Moongngarm, Ekkalak KhomphiphatkulProblem statement: Germinated rice has been recognized as a functional food and its health benefits. However, most related studies were on germinated brown rice but our previous study indicated that germination of rough rice was an effective method to obtain high concentrations of bioactive compounds. Germination time is one of the most important factors affecting the level of biochemical compositions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Heat or Heat-Xylose Processing on Nitrogen Fractions and in Situ/In Vitro Ruminal and Post-Ruminal Protein Disappearance of Guar MealHossein Jahani-Azizabadi, Mohsen Danesh Mesgaran, Ali Reza Vakili et al.Problem statement: Guar meal is a by-product consisting of hull and germ and is mostly used as a protein source in poultry and ruminant rations. The aim was to determine the effect of heat or heat-xylose processing on nitrogen fractions, in situ ruminal degradation parameters and in situ/in vitro ruminal and post-ruminal disappearance of guar meal. Approach: Samples were intact … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRelationships between Heavy Metal Concentrations in the American Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) and Metal Levels in the Water Column and Sediment in Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Larry Robinson, Elijah JohnsonThis study aims to assess baseline concentrations of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) in the oyster soft tissue as they relate to concentrations in the water column (particulate phase) and sediment in Apalachicola Bay. In order to conduct these assessments, a total of 360 samples, collected in two seasons (winter and summer) and were analyzed using atomic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,344 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Palm Kernel Cake Based Biosupplement Biscuits on Nutrient Utilization, Growth Performance, and Metabolic Responses in Male Ettawah GoatsTintin Rostini, Suharlina, Achmad Jaelani et al.Palm Kernel Cake (PKC), a major by-product of the palm oil industry, has considerable potential as an alternative feed ingredient for ruminants because of its wide availability, moderate protein content, and economic value. However, its utilization is often constrained by high fiber and lignocellulosic components that may limit nutrient digestibility. This study evaluated the effects of PKC-based biosupplement biscuits as … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 22 Oct 2026 · 312 accessesView PDFCite
