Beryllium Levels in the Mangrove Snail Nerita lineata and Surface Sediments from Peninsular Malaysia Mangrove Area

Forensic investigation of aliphatic hydrocarbons in the sediments from selected mangrove ecosystems in the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

Peninsular Malaysia has gone through fast development during recent decades resulting in the release of large amounts of petroleum and its products into the environment. Aliphatic hydrocarbons are one of the major components of petroleum. Surface sediment samples were collected from five rivers along the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia and analyzed for aliphatic hydrocarbons. The total concen...

pcbs and ddts in surface mangrove sediments from the south of iran (id no. 048)

mangrove sediments were collected during wet and dry seasons from nine stations in khamir,laft and natural reservoir mangrove-dense areas of hormozgan province in the south of iran. σ pcbs ranged from 5.33 to 15.5 ng/g dry weight and the dominant congener was no.153. average σ ddts for khamir and laft mangroves were 16.58 ± 1.51 and 18.8 ± 9.98 ng/g dry weight. ddt was more abundant than dde an...

Diversity and Antimicrobial Activities of Actinobacteria Isolated from Tropical Mangrove Sediments in Malaysia

The aim of this study was to isolate and identify Actinobacteria from Malaysia mangrove forest and screen them for production of antimicrobial secondary metabolites. Eighty-seven isolates were isolated from soil samples collected at 4 different sites. This is the first report to describe the isolation of Streptomyces, Mycobacterium, Leifsonia, Microbacterium, Sinomonas, Nocardia, Terrabacter, S...
