Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsContamination Risk Evaluation of Groundwater in the Canton of Portoviejo-Ecuador, using Susceptibility Index and two Intrinsic Vulnerability ModelsSuhail SharadqahThe present study aims to investigate the applicability of DRASTIC, GOD and SI models in evaluating the groundwater vulnerability and risk of contamination in the Canton of Portoviejo, Ecuador. The groundwater vulnerability to contamination has been evaluated using DRASTIC and GOD models. Both models were able to classify the study area into different sectors of variable vulnerability. The coincidence of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2017 · 7,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVulnerability and Pollution Risks in the Alluvial Aquifer of Tebessa-MorsottS. Kachi, N. Kherici, N. KachiWe studied the vulnerability and risks of pollution of the alluvial aquifer of Tebessa-Morsott that ranks amongst the major groundwater reservoirs of the region. The method used to asses groundwater vulnerability was the DRASTIC method, based on seven parameters that affect and control the groundwater flow: Depth to groundwater, Impact of the unsaturated zone, net recharge, aquifer media, hydraulic conductivity, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,812 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Prediction and Functional Characterization of Genes Related to Abiotic and Biotic Stresses in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum)Sukhdeep Kaur, Satendra Singh, Gitanjali Tandon et al.Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is second largest grown legumes worldwide contributing 75% of total pulse production. It is a cool season legume crop and grown in tropical and subtropical areas. Due to drastic climatic changes, chickpea suffers from many biotic (blight and wilt) and abiotic (salinity, drought, cold) stresses that directly impact the growth and yield. In our study, we … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Sep 2017 · 14,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHumoral and Cellular Effects of Stress-An Extensive Model SystemMazal Shimon-Hophy, Ramy R. AvtalionThe influence of stress on the immune system of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was studied by measuring leukocytes levels using flow cytometry and mRNA immune components by real time qPCR. Acute and chronic oxidative stresses were generated by different regimes of exposure of carp to environmental air. In acute stress, induced by single air exposure, the pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL1β, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2017 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
