Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species in Several Spermatozoa Activity in Indonesian Ongole Bull Cryopreserved SpermKurniawan Dwi Prihantoko, Asmarani Kusumawati, Mulyoto Pangestu et al.Certain factors may affect sperm motility and integrity in a freezing process. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) is essential in damaging the sperm, as the previous study revealed that ROS is a major cause damaging the membrane of spermatozoa. This study aimed to understand ROS production and its interaction within the motility, mitochondrial activity and DNA damage to the cryopreservation process … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2022 · 6,842 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleConsumption of an Extremely Biodiverse Probiotic and a Supplement based on Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate is Associated with Very Low Serum Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (Nagalase) Activity and Decrease of C-reactive Protein ValuesMichael Carter, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroWe describe the case of a 57-years-old male healthy professional who added to his nutritional plan a novel, extremely biodiverse, probiotic and a supplement based on microbial chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D3 and ultrapure phosphatidylcholine to improve his healthy life expectancy. After three months of such a nutritional regimen, serum alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (nagalase) activity was 0.40 that is a value below the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2020 · 13,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing Permeable Reactive Barriers to Remediate Heavy Metal-Contaminated Groundwater through a Laboratory Column ExperimentSomean Yin, Gemunu Herath, Sokchhay Heng, Senajith KalpageRecently, groundwater sources are being polluted by various activities such as agriculture, livestock, decentralized wastewater treatment systems and acid rain. Groundwater can also be polluted by landfill leachate, sewage, mine tailings, non-engineered deep well disposal of liquid waste and seepage from industrial waste lagoons. There are many studies reported contaminated groundwater remediation using Permeable Reactive Barrier systems (PRBs) and many … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2017 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLiquid Crystalline Polymers Compatibilization and Adhesion Enhancement by Reactive Blending in Post-Consumers PET’sAversa Raffaella, Apicella AntonioA method for PET mechanical properties enhancement by reactive blending with HBA/HNA Liquid Crystalline Polymers for in situ highly fibrillar composites preparation is presented. LCP/PET blends were reactive extruded in presence of Pyromellitic Di-Anhydride (PMDA) and then characterized by Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermally Stimulated Currents and tensile mechanical properties. The formation of specific macromolecular structures, where the PET, the LCP … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 17 Jun 2016 · 8,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffectiveness of Photocatalytic Decolourization of Reactive Red 120 Dye in Textile Effluent Using UV/H2O2Rishi Ananthashankar, Abdel GhalyThe effectiveness of Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) for degradation of reactive red 120 dye in aqueous solutions was tested in this present study. Ten different concentrations of the reactive red 120 dye were exposed to UV alone and a combination of UV with two different concentrations (10 ml/L and 20 ml/L) of H2O2 for 10 different retention times at the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhotocatalytic Decolourization of Textile Effluent Containing Reactive Red 120 Dye With UV/TiO2Rishi Ananthashankar, Abdel GhalyThe efficiency of degradation of an aqueous solution of reactive red 120 dye using Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) was evaluated. A low pressure UV lamp and a combination of UV/TiO2 were tested using ten different dye concentrations (50 - 500 mg/L) at several retention times (5.2-60 min) a pH of 10.5. The effect of acidic pH (pH = 3) on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2013 · 8,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReactive Power Optimization Using Quantum Particle Swarm OptimizationK. S. Chandragupta Mauryan, K. Thanushkodi, A. SakthisuganyaProblem statement: The problem of controlling a power system is not an easy task; it is subjected to various constraints. There are at risks of voltage instability problems due to highly stressed operating conditions caused by increased load demand and other constraints in the power system network. Approach: This study presents the implementation of Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 24 Aug 2012 · 6,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleClamshell vs. Backhoe Excavation of Permeable Reactive BarriersRajandrea Sethi, Steve Day, Antonio Di MolfettaProblem statement: Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRBs) were one of the most widespread solutions for the remediation of contaminated aquifers. Although, a variety of excavation methods had been developed, backhoe (hydraulic excavators) were commonly used for the construction of PRBs in North America. Approach: In Europe, the most common method of slurry excavation was with a hydraulic grab and crane.
