A series of chemical and biological investigations has proved that Schiff bases are very important ligands and take part in many non enzymatic processes....

Electrostatic probes are considered to be the most powerful and experimentally simplest tools for characterization of low temperature plasmas. Up until now, different pure metals have been tested as a probe tip material; however, it would be hard to find any literature on the use of nickel-chrome alloy as a probe tip material....

The current study aimed at the lab scale production of bioethanol from corncob employing cellulolytic bacteria isolated from termite gut. Cellulolytic bacteria were isolated from two local termite species including Coptotermes heimi and Microtermes mycophagous. Corn cob was de-lignified....

Fossil fuel depletion, increase in oil prices and adverse environmental effects of petroleum products have lead to sharp interest in biofuel production all over the world. The production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable and attractive energy source for transportation fuel to replace gasoline and substitute fossil fuels....

Escalating trends in fossil fuel consumption has lead to shortage of energy domains. Cellulosic biomass is regarded the most promising substitute for supplementation of energy demands....

A major by product of poultry industry is waste feathers. The huge increase in size of individual production facilities and the total poultry industry has resulted in enormous increases in waste, particularly feathers, to be managed. Feather waste is produced in massive amount resulting in large quantities of this byproduct of poultry industry....

The acanthocephala constitute an important group of worms, unlike trematodes they lack a mouth and digestive system. Research workers all over the world are continuously engaged in finding out more and more facts about parasites for better prevalence and control measures....
