Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSequential Remediation Processes for Effective Removal of Oil from Contaminated SoilsDeepika Dave, Reema Alharathi, Abdel GhalyProblem statement: Over 2.2 billions of oil and oil products were transported every year and often these activities can result in air, water and soil contamination. Expousure to petroleum products can cause health problems to humn and animals and affect marine animals and wildlife habitats. Approach: The objective of this study was to developed a technology for the remediation of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 18 Nov 2011 · 8,185 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnveiling the Potential of Dombeya buettneri K.Schum As a Drug Agent: Molecular Docking of Compounds With Enzymes Linked to Diabetes and Neurodegenerative DiseaseEsther Emem Nwanna, Samuel Chima Ugbaja et al.This study investigated the mechanisms of Dombeya buettneri (snowball leafy) extracts on diabetes, hypertension, and neurodegenerative diseases. It compared extracts obtained using steep water (a by-product of corn wet milling) and aqueous water. The extracts were analyzed for total phenol, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activities such as FRAP, ABTS, NO, DPPH, iron-induced lipid peroxidation assay, degradation of deoxyribose (Fenton’s reaction), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2026 · 2,031 accessesView PDF Cite

Pratama, Lili WarlyThis study aims to determine the digestibility value and degradation rate of various types of swamp grass in Sacco in local Pampangan buffalo in South Sumatra. The design used in the study was a completely randomized design consisting of 6 treatments and three replications. The treatments tested were six types of swamp grass which were then coded for each treatment … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2021 · 6,912 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplementation of Prill Fat Derived from Palm Oil on Nutrient Digestibility and Dairy Cow PerformanceLolita Udin Riestanti, Despal, Yuli RetnaniPrill fat is a hydrogenated vegetable oil which contains more than 85% palmitic acid with a high melting point. Due to this reason, it does not melt at rumen temperature and bypass rumen degradation. This study was aimed to determine the optimum level of prill fat (86% palmitic acid) supplementation in dairy ration on fermentation characteristics, feed digestibility, milk production, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2021 · 8,756 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Soil Loss Using GIS and RUSLE Model in Bakiya River Basin (BRB), Central NepalSujan Bista, Naresh Kazi Tamrakar, Kishor Rimal, Arju BhattaraiSoil erosion is the major geological hazard in the fragile landscape of Sub-Himalaya. This study examines the susceptibility of the Bakiya River Basin (BRB) in Central Nepal to soil erosion because of its steep topography, fragile geology, the impact of intense monsoon rainfall, and the lack of a direct monitoring mechanism available for rainfall-runoff. This study examines the spatial variations … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2025 · 3,389 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of Low-Density Polyethylene Film by UV Irradiated and Non-Irradiated Pseudomonas Aeruginosa D5Olusola Adeoye Oluwole, Temitayo Omotunde Olowomofe, Ikeoluwa Gloria OlaniyanLow-density polyethylene (LDPE) constitutes 60% of total plastic production, and non-degradable polyethylene carry bags are the most common type of solid waste found. Their recalcitrance in the environment is thus a major concern for environmentalists. This study investigated the potential of Ultraviolet (UV) induced mutation in enhancing biodegradation of LDPE films by two diesel degrading bacteria, Alcaligenes faecalis D4 and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Oct 2025 · 3,638 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of a Pressure Cooker for Homemade High-Temperature Sterilization of RendangDaimon Syukri, Rini, Risa Meutia Fiana et al.This study aimed to analyze the impact of pressure cooker (presto) sterilization on the nutritional value and microbial content of rendang, a traditional Indonesian meat dish. The evaluated parameters included moisture content, ash content, fat content, protein content, and total plate count (TPC), measured before and after a 40-minute sterilization process.
