Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Activation Energies on Thermal Explosion in the Interior of the EarthAmos Oladele PopoolaProblem statement: Literatures have shown that thermal processes in the interior of the earth and the classical thermal explosion are analogous and that combustion processes are characterized by ignition and explosion. The heat released during the thermal explosion that occurs in the interior of the earth requires more attention. Approach: The study investigated the role of activation energies ratio in … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,277 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Forensic Profiling of Primer-Derived Inorganic Gunshot Residues Using SEM-EDX SpectroscopyAhmed M. Bendary Salem, Aldo Barbaro, Bolaji OladipoGunshot Residue (GSR) analysis presents a significant challenge in forensic science due to the need to detect and identify minute traces of powders and initiating compositions formed during the chemical decomposition and deflagration processes within cartridge cases. This research is a qualitative comparative profiling study, designed to create a reference database of the most characteristic elemental markers for commonly used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2026 · 2,726 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Machine Learning Algorithm for Resilient Higher-Order Mutant GenerationSubhasish Mohanty, Jyotirmaya Mishra, Sudhir Kumar Mohapatra et al.In the field of software engineering, ensuring the reliability androbustness of software is paramount, and software testing plays a criticalrole in this process. Mutation testing, a fault-based technique, evaluates theeffectiveness of test suites by introducing artificial defects, known asmutants, into programs. This research presents a novel method forgenerating higher-order mutants (HOMs) using the Chemical ReactionOptimization (CRO) algorithm, which enhances the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 5 · 20 May 2025 · 8,238 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of Properties of Biopolymers from Corn Starch with Addition of Microalgae Spirulina platensisJúllia Koury Abreu, Loraynne Coelho Pereira, José Izaquiel Santos da SilvaThe discovery of the environmental impacts caused by petroleum-based polymers has led to the use of natural polymers gaining more and more space. Naturally occurring polymers, also known as biopolymers, are chemical compounds produced by living things or raw materials from renewable energy sources. Their main advantage is decomposition, while polymers from fossil and non-renewable energies can take hundreds of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2023 · 6,026 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction, Purification and Characterization of Fish Chymotrypsin: A ReviewLiang Zhou, Suzanne M. Budge, Abdel E. Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Solid fish waste is generated from the unwanted parts of fish including heads, tails, fins, frames, offal (guts, kidney and liver) and skin. It accounts for up to 80% of material from production of surimi, 66% from production of fillet and 27% from production of headed and gutted fish. Currently, fish wastes are disposed off in land-based waste … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2011 · 10,585 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExocellular (1→6)-β-D-Glucan (Lasiodiplodan): Carboxymethylation, Thermal Behavior, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial ActivityThais Vanessa Theis, Gabrielle Cristina Calegari, Vidiany Aparecida Queiroz Santos et al.β-Glucans are biomacromolecules of industrial interest for its biological and technological properties, including ability to modify the rheology of food systems and different biological functionalities. In this study, lasiodiplodan an exocellular polysaccharide of the (1→6)-β-D-glucan type produced by the fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae MMPI was obtained in a bench-scale bioreactor operated in discontinuous mode. Lasiodiplodan produced was derivatized by carboxymethylation and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2017 · 8,326 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInfluence of Chemical Properties on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to investigate the seriousness of degradation of peat swamp forest caused by skidding system in terms of its function as a carbon sink. In this study, we formulated assumptions that conditions of our research site before the introduction of skidding system were in their natural states, thus that changes measured are clearly caused by skidding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,915 accessesView PDF Cite
