Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy of Supercritical Coal Extraction in Toluene Containing FluidsPeter Nikolayevich Kuznetsov, Svetlana Mikhaylovna Kolesnikova, Ludmila Ivanovna Kuznetsova, Anastasia Valerievna KazbanovaThe conversion of brown coals and sapropelic coal in toluene containing mixtures with co-solvents (water, ethanol and tetralin) was studied under sub- and supercritical conditions within the temperature range of 375-550°C and at pressures from 7 to 40 MPa. It was found that the extent of coal extraction in the toluene solvent medium, at 400°C, was significantly increased by the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 1 Mar 2016 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Mixing on the Biological Degradation of Toluene under Aerobic ConditionsAbdel E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, K. MartinellThe effectiveness of in-vessel bioremediation in reducing the concentration of toluene in contaminated soil under continuous and intermittent mixing conditions using invessel composting system. The results showed that there was a startup period (60 h) during which the average temperature rose from 21 to 32 and 40°C (and then remained constant) for the bioreactors with continuous and intermittent mixing, respectively. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInduction of Micronuclei in Mice Lymphocytes Exposed to Microwave and TolueneS. B. Mortazavi, A. Safari, A. Khavanin et al.Increasing applications of microwave radiation are of great concern with regard to public health. Several studies have been conducted detect effects of microwave exposure genetic material leading to negative or questionable results. The Micronucleus (MN) assay which is proved to be a useful method for detection of radiation exposure-induced cytogenetic damage was used in the present study to investigate the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSynthesis of Coenzyme Q10Suryachandra Rao Ravada, Lakshma Reddy Emani, Machi Raju Garaga et al.Problem statement: CoQ10 is a key compound in ATP synthesis having wide number of health application especially for treating humans suffering from pathophysiological condition. The CoQ10 presently available in the market is solely derived from fermentation process. A commercially viable synthetic process is yet to be realized. Approach: The researchers described a new synthetic route for the preparation of CoQ10 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotanical, Physicochemical, and Phytochemical Studies of Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides (Lam.) Zepernick and Timler (Rutaceae) Stem and Root BarkLassané Ouédraogo, Aminata Pagnimdebsom Nacoulma et al.Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides, a medicinal plant overexploited in Burkina Faso due to the use of its roots for therapeutic purposes has been studied and it seems that the profile of the powder from stem and root bark are almost similar. This study aims to compare the botanical, physicochemical, and phytochemical parameters of Z. zanthoxyloides powder from stem and root bark for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 9 Sep 2024 · 8,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Organic Carbon Pool and its Storage in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMd. Faruque Hossain, ASM Maksud Kamal, Monera Akhter Eva et al.The actual quantity of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) stored in wetlands can only be estimated within a broad range of uncertainty. An accurate assessment of the size and distribution of the SOC storages in wetland resources is very difficult to obtain, therefore, the proposed research objective is to measure SOC storage and its pool on wetland soils of Arial beel … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 17 Aug 2020 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Ultra Violet Radiation on Polyethylene Packaged Water Exposed at Varying Conditions: Are we Drinking Micro-Plastics?James Matthew Anayo, Victor Eshu Okpashi, Ikechukwu N.E. OnwurahThe public is worried about how their health is impacted by microplastics in sachet water. This awareness has repercussion for water producing factories and public health organization in managing health hazard associated with microplastic ingestion. Many countries in Africa, with concern to Nigeria, the act of packaging water in polyethylene materials by water producing factories has become accustomed. These packaged … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2018 · 9,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of BTEX: Optimization through Response Surface MethodologyAyat E. El Telib, Muftah H. El-Naas, Janice A. AcioResponse Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the biodegradation of Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene and m-, o-, p-Xylene (BTEX) by Pseudomonas putida immobilized in PVA matrices in a specially-designed novel Spouted Bed Bioreactor System (SBBS). A mixture of 60 mg L-1 of BTEX compounds in air was contacted with the immobilized bacteria in three spouted bed bioreactors in series. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2017 · 8,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A BACTERIAL CULTURE SYSTEM USING A PAPER PLATFORM TO ACCOMMODATE MEDIA AND AN INK-JET PRINTING TO DISPENSE BACTERIATithimanan Srimongkon, Takuya Ishida, Kiyohiko Igarashi, Toshiharu EnomaeGenerally, bacterial culture is performed manually and is subject to error. Here, we created a novel, well-ordered and reliable system for dispensing bacteria microscopically by using paper and an ink-jet printer for controlled patterning. For paper to accommodate a culture medium, hydrophobic/hydrophilic patterns were incorporated onto the paper by immersing paper in a toluene solution of polystyrene and drying for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2014 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
