Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Microbial and Heavy Metal Contents in Soils and Roots under Mangrove Forest Stands with Different Levels of Pollution in the Niger River Delta, NigeriaAroloye Ofo NumbereOil and gas exploration in the Niger Delta, has resulted to increased heavy metal contamination. It is thus postulated that increased heavy metal will lead to decreased microbial content in soil and root. To test this hypothesis ten replicates each of soil and root samples were collected from already established sites. Samples were sent to the laboratory for analyses of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2017 · 8,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReduction of Microbial Contamination of Outlet Waste in Urban Wastewater Treatment PlantsSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Hossein Gholami, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariThe available research was managed to monitor the physicochemical and microbiological features of treatment plants. The wastewater treatment herb sewage is a straight pollution input source for anthropogenic pollution. The sediment information ideas to an urban drainage trench as a secondary point pollution source while the organotins information highlights the presence of other spread sources, special to this material. wastewater … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2019 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Impact of Acidity and Alkalinity on the Microbial Community Structure in Urban RiversDongmei Shen, Cairui Yu, Xinwei Song et al.To address the impact of low-temperature pH on the microbial community structure of river sediment in urban rivers during winter, the sediment of the Pi River was sampled to investigate. Four experimental samples were designed by varying the pH to 5.0, 7.0, and 8.5 based on the original sample (pH = 5.5) and the characteristics of the microbial community were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 8 Aug 2023 · 4,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Bacillus Subtilis as Biological Fertilizer by Biotransformation of Corn Steep LiquorXiaojie Ren, Baoyue Liu et al.Corn steep liquor is a kind of intractable organic waste liquidproduced during the processing of corn starch. But it is rich in nutrients,soluble protein, and amino acids and it could be used as a nitrogen source inthe fermentation industry. Many starch processing enterprises cannot directlyutilize corn steep liquor and choose to discharge it directly, thus causingenvironmental pollution. Studies have shown … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 10 Nov 2022 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Detection Techniques for Chemical Oxygen Demand in WastewaterDan Wu, Yinglu Hu, Ying LiuWater pollution is a major problem all over the world, the detection techniques of water play an important role in the evaluation of water pollution. Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is an important index of the evaluation of water pollution. The paper reviews the detection methods of chemical oxygen demand in wastewater, introduces the standard of chemical oxygen demand emission limit … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2022 · 8,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate on the Microbial Community in Vegetables PhyllosphereXiaowei Fu, Dan WuA panel count method and a phospholipid fatty acid analysis technique were used to investigate the responses of Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) pollutants to the phyllosphere microbial communities of Chinese Cabbage. The results of plate count analysis showed that the number of culturable microorganisms could be lower than that of water spray after treated with a certain amount of DEHP pollutant. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2020 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Coliform Content in Sewage Treatment Plant Using a Sand Filtration System with Potassium Permanganate PowderSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Seyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi et al.Reuse of refined sewage with two goals of providing more water and protecting the environment from pollution is one of the solutions to water supply problems and one of the potential sources for irrigation in agriculture. The aim of this study is to evaluate the possibility of effluent disinfection using a sand filtration system to reduce microbial contamination with potassium … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2019 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of Biodiversity of Algal Genera with Special Reference to the Waste Water Effluents from IndustriesRitu Singh Rajput, Sonali Pandey, Seema BhadauriaPollution is the introduction of contaminants, which cause adverse change, into the natural environment and mainly from external inputs like sewage, waste from industries, oil spills and agricultural use of pesticides. Anthropogenic activity-reflected in the use of toxic metals and organic pollutants-has increased levels of soil contamination and damage to aquatic systems. Ecosystems maintain water quality and withstand pressure from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2016 · 8,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Analysis and Modeling the Nitrogen Flush after Rainfall Events at the Field Scale in SWATElizabeth Brooke Haney, Richard Lee Haney, Jeffrey George Arnold et al.Current nitrogen (N) models tend to neglect the contribution of the microbial population to the plant available N pool, resulting in an underestimation of yield and possible over or underestimation of N runoff from natural and agricultural landscapes. We used the measurement of microbial activity coupled with the measurement of their food source, water extractable nitrogen (N) and carbon (C), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2016 · 7,228 accessesView PDFCite
