in general, estuaries may be classified variously according to inlet dynamics, geomorphology orwhether they are tide or river dominated or, on a combination of all three factors. in kwazulu-natal (kzn),south africa, the four recognised estuary types are temporary opened-closed estuaries (toces), permanently opened estuaries, estuarine lakes and river mouths. since physico-chemical parameters ar...

background and objectives: the food product known as the ‘hamburger’ plays a crucial role in people’s nutrition and the diversity of the food they consume. the reasons for our study include the area under cultivation, the remarkable amount of protein in chickpeas and lentils, as well as the public interest in tending to meat products, especially hamburgers. materials and methods: in this study,...

A novel method for the preparation of α-zirconium phosphate (ZrP) nanoparticles as an eco-friendly and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst was studied. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) was used as the organic matrix which produced a better dispersion of ZrP nanoparticles. The catalyst was characterized by several physico-chemical techniques such as ICP-OES, XRD, TPD-NH3, pyridine-FTIR, BET, FTIR, TGA, S...

Objective: To investigate the cytomorphological and physico-chemical characteristics of Sida rhombifolia. Methods: Fresh leaves, stems and roots were studied for microscopical characters and dried powder of leaves, stems and roots were subjected to physico-chemical analysis using standard methods. Results: The detail microscopy of leaf revealed the presence of paracytic stomata, unicellular cov...

During April-May 2011 two cruises (M84/3, RV Meteor, Istambul-Vigo, and EF11, RV Urania, Bari –La Spezia) overdetermined the CO system in the MedSea for the first time. The internal consistency analysis for pH, alkalinity and total inorganic carbon confirmed the use of CO2 constants from Mehrbach et al. (1973) [1] and others [2] and [3]. This analysis reveals some insights about the peculiar ph...

In the course of screening for new antitumor substances, BE-18591 (la) was isolated from cultures of Streptomyces sp. BA18591X). The isolation and physico-chemical properties together with biological activities are reported in the preceding paper. In this paper, the structure elucidation is described. The physico-chemical properties of la were summarized in a previous paper1*. The molecular for...

Physico-chemical parameters, species composition and seasonal variation in phytoplankton abundance have been studied in other regions of Indian coastal waters (Saravanakumar et al., 2008; Vengadesh Perumal et al., 2009). For confirming the good quality of water resources large number of physico-chemical parameters, extend and source of any pollution load must be know for which monitoring of phy...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the physico-chemical quality of raw milk of one-humped camel coming from khur and biabanak known as a camel-rearing area located in isfahan province of iran. 500 milliliters of raw milk from thirty individual one-humped camels were randomly collected and subjected for proximate analyses indicating the amounts of total solid, protein, fat, lactose,...

Bioremediation uses various microorganisms to detoxify or degrade various harmful substances in the nature, particularly soil and water. In the proposed work, five species of micro-organisms were used to analyse their impact on various physico-chemical parameters of water. In the first attempt the actual physico chemical parameters of the collected sample water were noted down (Fresh sample par...
