Silver nanocomposites (Ag NCs) were prepared by two methods, chemical and physical synthesis using sodium borohydride gamma irradiation as a reducing tool. A one-step silver/kaolinite nanocomposite (Ag/Kln method has been developed successfully technique at room temperature under ambient pressure. The Ag/Kln NCs produced the ?-irradiation is pure without residues, good distribution with enhance...

one of the characters in iranian model of desertification potential assessment (imdpa) is soil. since soil is very important in the degradation of land, so some indices were determined for this character in order to evaluate desertification potential of arid, semi-arid and dry sub humid areas of iran. the indices included soil texture, deep gravel percentage, soil depth, and ec. to calibrate th...

poplar trees are becoming extremely important as fast growing species due to the increasing need for wood and decreasing productivity of some lands in iran. the present study aimed to find the effect of canopy of poplar clones as one of the most important effective factors on soil properties compared to the distances inter-row trees. five poplar clones and species included: populus euramericana...

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and highlight a few classes of traditional antimicrobial peptides with a focus on structure-activity relationship studies. After first dissecting the important physiochemical properties that influence the antimicrobial and toxic properties of antimicrobial peptides, the contributions of individual amino acids with respect to the peptides antibacterial p...

This study aimed to investigate the physiochemical properties of Sarawak's adapted Liberica coffee silverskin (CS) using multiple solvents (distilled water, methanol, and ethanol) its impact on total phenolic content (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), antioxidant activities CS. The results showed that highest TPC was observed in methanol extract (15.24 ± 0.65 mg GAE/g), while TFC recorded when extracted w...

–Abundant as it may seem, in Nigeria, access to clean and potable water is a great challenge. Hence, the reason the physiochemical properties of the groundwater in Agbowo and Ajibode communities in Oyo State, Southwestern Nigeria was analyzed. Water samples were collected from fifteen shallow wells, with varying depths. The water quality parameters were analyzed in accordance to standard method...
