The metabolism of contemporary industrialized societies, that is their energy and material flows, leads to the overconsumption waste natural resources, two factors often disregarded in global ecological equation. In this Discussion article, we examine amount resources increasingly being consumed wasted by humanity, propose solutions reverse pattern. Since beginning 20th century, especially from countries, have been wasting different ways. On one hand, industrial societies relies on...
Plantas sob forte sombreamento (2% ou 6% da luz solar direta) apresentaram, em relação às plantas maior nível de luz, menor biomassa, menores taxas crescimento, razão raiz/parte aérea, massa foliar específica (MFE), clorofila a/b e área (RAF). Com o aumento irradiância as apresentaram três tipos comportamento, dependendo quantidade dada: 1) até cerca 20% direta com das crescimento relativo (TCR) assimilação líquida (TAL), alocação biomassa para a raiz, número folhas, MFE, peso (RPF) RAF; 2)...
Although the plants of genus Euphorbia are largely exploited by therapists in Morocco, composition and antibacterial activities propolis from these still unknown. To address this gap, study aimed to characterize pollen type, volatile compounds, phenolic mineral profiles three samples collected Morocco evaluate their antimicrobial activities. The minimum inhibitory concentration was determined microdilution method, anti-adherence activity evaluated crystal violet assay. examination...
The liquid-liquid extraction of platinum(IV) and palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid media was carried out using N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-dicyclohexylthiodiglycolamide (DMDCHTDGA) in 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE). Pt(IV) is efficiently extracted 5 M HCl onwards (%E ≥ 97%), whereas Pd(II) quantitatively recovered 1 to 8 solutions. Both can be successfully stripped the loaded organic phases, former with a solution, latter 0.1 thiourea HCl. maximum loading capacity DMDCHTDGA for could not determined...
Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) are widely used for attenuating heavy metal pollution by means of sulfide generation. Due to their low tolerance, several SRB species depend on associated in mixed cultures cope with metal-induced stress. Yet the identity protecting is largely unknown. We aimed identify these and potential role two highly metal-resistant comparing bacterial community composition activity between sensitive ones. The resistant consortia was similar. However, whereas were...
Abstract Ibuprofen (IBU) is a significant contaminant frequently found in wastewater treatment plants due to its widespread use and limited removal during processes. This leads discharge into the environment, causing considerable environmental concerns. The of microorganisms has recently been recognized as sustainable method for mitigating IBU contamination wastewater. In this study, new bacteria capable growing solid medium with only carbon source removing from liquid were isolated samples,...
Honey is a natural food product very famous for its health benefits being an important source of antioxidant and phenolic compounds. Euphorbia honeys obtained from different regions Morocco were evaluated their ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase, lipoxygenase, tyrosinase xanthine oxidase activities. Their properties using the: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging capacity, nitric oxide scavenging activity (NO) superoxide anion radical. Then, the extracts same entire...
