Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating Bio-Char as Flow Modifier and Water Treatment Agent for Sustainable Pavement DesignRenaldo Walters, Shamim A. Begum, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThe life expectancy of Asphalt Binder (AB) has been negatively impacted by the harsh bombardment of Ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV rays cause asphalt to oxidize faster, which results in the deterioration of asphalt's rheological characteristics that can lead to pavement distresses. This paper investigates merits of bio-char to improve asphalt aging susceptibility by blending one control binder (PG 64-22) and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2015 · 9,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLarvicidal Activity of Spondias purpurea (Sineguelas) Leaf and Hylocereus costaricensis (Dragon Fruit) Stem Extracts Against Aedes aegyptiAlfredo V. Corpuz, Nigell Mikhail A. Gallardo, Ace Danielle C. AveroThe study determined the larvicidal activity of the different concentrations of Spondias purpurea and Hylocereus costaricensis extracts by measuring percent mortality in Aedes aegypti larvae, a primary vector of dengue and other arboviral diseases. The hypothesis proposed that combining both extracts would yield greater larvicidal activity due to potential synergistic interactions. Ethanolic extraction was used to isolate a wide array … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcaricidal Activity of Azadirachta indica (Neem Tree) and Carica papaya (Papaya) Leaf Extracts against Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Dog Ticks) Using Spray MethodAlfredo Vita Corpuz, Carmela Montoya Florentino, Paul Erman Tabuloc Quilana et al.Ticks pose a serious threat to dogs, with synthetic acaricides leading to environmental impact and resistance concerns. While Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya have shown acaricidal potential against Rhipicephalus sanguineus, their efficacy against dog ticks has not been thoroughly investigated. This study determined the acaricidal activity of A. indica and C. papaya leaf extract against R. sanguineus, both individually and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2025 · 8,409 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Exploration of Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus Trichoderma as a Potent Candidate for Plant Disease Management: An OverviewMd. Tanbir Rubayet, Md. Motaher HossainChemical pesticides are widely used to control plant diseases, but their widespread use can have a detrimental impact on the environment and human health. This has led researchers and growers to seek out alternative solutions. One promising approach is the use of the Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus (PGPF) Trichoderma spp. as a biological control agent. This method is effective, cost-efficient, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 21 Sep 2024 · 5,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrowave-Assisted Co-Pyrolysis of Bamboo Biomass with Plastic Waste for Hydrogen-Rich Syngas ProductionN. Saifuddin, P. Priatharsini, S.B. HakimConcerns about diminishing fossil fuels and increasing greenhouse gas emissions are driving many countries to develop renewable energy sources. The knowledge of the dielectric property is essential to design and develop microwave technology for processing biomass materials. Bamboo biomass was subjected to microwave pyrolysis, to determine the influence of each process on the yield and composition of the derived gas, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 16 May 2016 · 9,121 accessesView PDFCite
