Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Gene Expression in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Following Exposure to Gaseous Diffusion Plant Effluent and Effluent Receiving Stream WaterBen F. Brammell, Andrew J. WiggintonProblem statement: The expression of six genes known to serve as bioindicators of environmental stress were examined using real-time quantitative PCR in liver tissue extracted from zebrafish (Danio rerio, Hamilton) exposed to effluent and effluent containing stream water associated with the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP). Approach: The PGDP, the only active uranium enrichment facility in the US, is located … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrade and Precaution: Their Progressive InterlaceIsh Puneet SinghProblem statement: The principle of precaution has developed in International Law, as it has been present in either explicit or implicit forms in most of the celebrated international treaties dealing with the protection of the environment, over the past two decades. In spite of the huge recognition that this principle has got through incorporation, in the international order, this principle … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemporal Variability on Lowland River Sediment Properties and YieldMohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mohd Ekhwan Toriman, A.S. Sharifah Mastura et al.Problem statement: A sediment analysis study was conducted at the Chini River on 16 and 31 August 2008. This study was conducted to review the formation of suspended sediment load in the Lake Chini catchment area, which flows into the Pahang River via the Chini River. Approach: Three sampling stations were chosen, the first one at upstream Chini River (S1), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Site Specific Mutational Effect on Transcription Initiation at Escherichia coli PromoterS. Kannan, M. Krishnan, S. Sundarraj et al.Problem statement: It is widely accepted thought that the weak promoters control the RNA synthesis and play regulatory role in complex genetic networks in bacterial system. An experiment had been designed to address whether mutations in the -16/-17 region affect the rate of transcription at an activator-independent promoter in E. coli or not? Approach: The aim of this study was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Inducible System for the Identification of Target Genes for a Regulator in MycobacteriaShruti Jain, Garima Khare, Pushplata Tripathi, Anil K. TyagiWe described principle and application of an inducible system for identification of target genes of a given mycobacterial protein with a regulatory function. This vector system, a promoterprobe vector, carries (i) promoterless lacZ as the reporter gene and (ii) the mycobacterial gene encoding the regulatory protein under the transcriptional control of the promoter of highly inducible mycobacterial gene encoding acetamidase. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrotox Toxicity Assay for the Sediment Quality Assessment of Ganga RiverK.R. Beg, S. AliThe objective of this study was to determine the sediment quality assessment of Ganga River at Kanpur city where effluents from tannery industries are discharged. Sediment samples from control, upstream and downstream area were collected and analyzed for bacterial toxicity bioassay along with a reference sediment (LGC6137). The control samples collected from the point of origin of Ganga River at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Contaminants and Toxicity of Ganga River Sediment from Up and Down Stream Area at KanpurK. R. Beg, S. AliThe objective of this study was the sediment quality assessment of Ganga River at Kanpur city where effluents from tannery industries are discharged. Sediment samples from upstream and downstream area were collected and analyzed for trace metals and toxicity bioassay. Among various trace metals examined Cr in downstream sediment was 30-fold higher than in upstream sediment and its concentration was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrochemical Differentiation of Salinisation Process of the Water in Endoreic Semi-Arid Basin: Case of Rémila Basin, AlgeriaHouha Belgacem, Kherici Nacer, Kachi Slimane, Valles VincentThe aim of this study is to determine and treat a hierarchical basis of the various mechanisms responsible for the space variation of the water quality in a endoreic semi-arid basin. The water chemistry showed a large variability in space and time. The total dissolved solid (TDS) in water increases from upstream to downstream due to the effect of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrimary Pollutants Monitoring and Modeling Using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) Around Fahaheel Residential AreaS. M. Al-Salem, A. A. Al-Haddad, A. R. KhanFour major sources of air pollution were identified and modeled using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) around a residential area. The sources were identified as MAA refinery, downtown area, upstream facilities and main highway road. The sources were analyzed using a series of concentration roses (unfiltered and filtered) executed from the data collected. Data collected included primary and secondary pollutants levels … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Nitrogen Non-Point Sources in Po River Near TurinGiuseppe Genon, Franco MarcheseThe non-point hydraulic and nitrogen loads in the stretch of Po river upstream and downstream from the city of Turin have been investigated, on the basis of regular data concerning quality and flow rates in the river in different periods of a reference year. The collected data have been organized in terms of hydraulic and mass balances, taking into account … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,642 accessesView PDFCite
