Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleData Mining Revealing Recent Microplastics Pollution of Freshwater in ChinaZhuo-Yuan Xie, De-Sheng PeiThis review mainly discusses the characteristics and correlation of microplastics (MPs) in freshwater systems under various geographical environments in China. The distribution and source of MPs are analyzed and their spatial analyses are performed using the GIS method. Besides, the current and future situation of microplastic pollution in China is further evaluated through data mining. Results indicate that recent studies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 25 Jun 2022 · 6,085 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Light Exposure and Nitrogen Source on the Production of Oil from Freshwater and Marine Water MicroalgaeMariam Al Hattab, Abdel GhalyThe biomass yield and oil content of Chlorella saccharophila (freshwater) and Tetraselmis suecica (marine) microalgae were investigated using various nitrogen source (ammonium nitrate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium sulfate and combination of nutrients) at various light durations (9, 16 and 24 h). NaHCO3 was used as the carbon source. The nitrogen concentration, temperature and pH were maintained at 70 mg/L, 22°C and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 8 Dec 2014 · 7,265 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConsumer's Acceptability Estimation of Cold Preserved Malaysian Freshwater PatinA. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, S. M. Sapuan, M. M.H. AhmadThe study presents an attempt to correlate the consumer acceptability of Malaysian Patin fish with the storage time and temperature. A batch of typical fresh fishes was cut into regular slices (samples), which were wrapped and distributed evenly to four cold stores by 0, 3, 5 and 10°C storage temperature for a period of 28 days. During the course of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,180 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFreshwater Situation in Kuwait-Remote Sensing Inputs on Possibility of Artificial RechargeM. Al-Murad, S. Uddin, A. Al-DousariProblem statement: Kuwait is an arid country having per capita freshwater consumption of 485 l day-1. Almost the entire freshwater requirements are met through desalination. The water tariffs in the country are very low consequent to 60% subsidy provided by the government. The use of tertiary treated wastewater is restricted to irrigation and forestation; this leaves huge surplus that can … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,409 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFinite Difference Solution for Precooling Process of Fish PackagesK. A. Abbas, F. A. Ansari, A. S. Mokhtar et al.The present work aims at finding an optimized finite difference scheme for the solution of problems involving pure convection heat transfer in slab shaped fresh water fish pieces. A generalized mathematical model was written in dimensionless form and an optimized scheme of the solutions was worked out. A fully explicit finite difference scheme, an implicit finite difference scheme and different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 6,901 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExplicit Finite Difference Solution of Heat Transfer Problems of Fish Packages in PrecoolingA. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, M.M.H. Megat Ahmad et al.The present work aims at finding an optimized explicit finite difference scheme for the solution of problems involving pure heat transfer from the surfaces of Pangasius Sutchi fish samples suddenly exposed to a cooling environment. Regular shaped packages in the form of an infinite slab were considered and a generalized mathematical model was written in dimensionless form. An accurate sample … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,163 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe interplay between Cadmium and Zinc Induced Developmental Perturbations and Apoptosis in Daphnia MagnaNaima Hamid, Siti Nur Airina Binti Ibrahim et al.Assessing combined toxicity provides a realistic and comprehensive approach to determining toxicological effects in aquatic species under environmentally relevant conditions. This study was conducted to understand the effects of single and combined metal mixtures on freshwater flea and Daphnia magna. Environmentally Relevant Concentrations (ERCs) of Cadmium (Cd) and Zinc (Zn) at a low dose (10μg/L) and high dose (30 μg/L) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Jun 2025 · 6,015 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural Morphology of the Muscle System Organization in the Trematode Typhlocoelium cucumerinumIrina Yurievna Chidunchi, Ainagul Balgauovna Kaliyeva, Natalya Petrovna Korogod et al.Trematodes, also known as flatworms, are a diverse group of parasitic organisms that live in a variety of ecosystems, from freshwater to marine habitats. Their complex life cycle often involves intermediate and definitive hosts and multiple developmental stages. Trematodes have unique morphological features that allow them to adapt, move and parasitize within host tissues and organs. The parasitic lifestyle of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 1 Jun 2024 · 5,112 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdafruit IO Based Smart Irrigation System using MQTT Protocol for Urban FarmingDevesh Mishra, Prakhar Yadav, Vandana Yadav et al.Freshwater is needed for irrigation and nutrient supply to plants to make up for the lack of rainfall. Agricultural activities consume more than 70% of the available freshwater. This emphasizes the importance of responsible management of water for irrigation using smart Internet of Things (IoT) based agricultural practices combined with irrigation-related technologies The purpose of this research article is to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 5 · 23 May 2022 · 6,894 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrocystin-LR Affects Ultimobranchial Gland of Catfish Heteropneustes fossilisChandra Prakash, Sunil Kumar SrivastavMicrocystin-LR (2.5 µg/25 g) was injected intraperitoneally to the fish Heteropneustes fossilis on day 1, 10 and 20 kept in either freshwater or freshwater containing ZnCl2. The fishes were killed on day 5, 10, 20 and 30 day. The serum calcium levels was estimated and ultimobranchial glands were processed for routine histology.
