Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleIn situ Shear Tests of Soil Samples with Grass Roots in Alpine EnvironmentE. Comino, A. DruettaProblem statement: The presence of vegetation increases the soil burden stability along slopes and reduces soil erosion. Its contribution is due to mechanical (reinforcing soil shear resistance) and hydrologic controls on streambank and superficial landslides. This study presented the results carried out from experimental in situ test focused to study the increased shear resistance of soil blocks due to root-reinforcement. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleBiogenic Silver Nanoparticles Produced by Bacteria Isolated from University Campus Environment Soil Samples in Ras Al KhaimahPooja Shivappa, Grisilda Vidya Bernhardt, Sheela Haridas, Michael V MagaogaoSilver is observed to be comprised of a huge percentage ofsilver oxide and the utilization of silver and silver salts is in practicesince ancient human civilization. Silver nanoparticles remain to be potentialantifungal, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral agents. Further, itis demonstrated that silver nanoparticles have been involved in arresting thegrowth of several bacterial species thereby reducing their harmful effects.Micro-organisms are being … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 5 Sep 2022 · 5,870 accessesView PDFCite

Descriptive statistics were conducted. The results showed that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Oct 2025 · 2,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImportance of Soil and Mineral Characteristics in Supporting Sustainable AgricultureIda Suryani, Marliana Sjuaib Palad, Nur Fitriani et al.Soil consists of four main components: Minerals, organic matter, air, and water, which are arranged in the space to form the soil body. Inorganic minerals in the soil come from rock fragments and other primary minerals. Sustainable soil fertility is supported by the nutrient content contained in the minerals. The research objectives were: 1) to observe the physical and chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 25 Mar 2025 · 5,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infecting Bacteriophages from Swiftlet House Pond Water and Sewage in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Dyah Widhowati, Titin Yulinery et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that may occur in animal-production environments and contribute to microbial contamination of animal-derived products. However, information on P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages in artificial swiftlet-house environments remains limited. This study aimed to isolate and evaluate P. aeruginosa-infecting bacteriophages from the swiftlet-house environment in South Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Soil Storage at Freezing Temperatures on Soil Enzymatic ActivitiesAinsley Lougheed, Kabwe NkongoloSoil enzyme activities are good indicators of soil health. It has been hypothesized that soil storage before analysis might affect microbial function. The objective of the present study was to determine if soil storage at -20 and -80°C affects soil enzymatic activities. Soil samples were collected and stored for four weeks at -20 and -80°C. Activities of nine enzymes were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2024 · 4,984 accessesView PDFCite
