The aim of the present study was to investigate the population dynamics of Liza klunzingeri, in Hormouzgan province waters located in northern coasts of the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea. This study was carried out from October 2007 to September 2008. samples were collected from commercial stake traps. The relationship between weight and fork length was found to be W= 0.0214 F.L2.8233 suggesting ...

The antibiotic protein synthesis inhibitor chloramphenicol specifically blocked the incorporation of [S]sulfate into the residue protein of two marine bacteria, Pseudomonas halodurans and Alteromonas luteo-violaceus. Simultaneous inhibition of total protein synthesis occurred, but incorporation of S into low-molecular-weight organic compounds continued. A. luteo-violaceus rapidly autolyzed, wit...

a new isolated strain of sporobolomyces ruberrimus h110 was cultivated  on technical glycerol as carbon source and effect of different temperatures and ph on the growth and pigmentation was studied. the maximum concentration of total carotenoid was 3.84 mgg-1 including torularhodin (3.70 mgg-1) and β-carotene (0.14 mgg-1) using 19ºc at ph 6, but the highest amount of the maximum specific growth...

a study of the biokinetics of anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste (msw) was carried out using anaerobic batch digester. from the experimental results, the kinetic parameters (coefficient values) of the digestion of the msw were determined. the maximum rate of substrate utilization (k), saturation constant (ks), endogenous decay coefficient (kd), biomass yield or microbial growth yield ...

We investigate into the rank-size distributions of urban agglomerations for India between 1981 to 2011. The incidence of a power law tail is prominent. A relevant question persists regarding the evolution of the power tail coefficient. We have developed a methodology to meaningfully track the power law coefficient over time, when a country experience population growth. A relevant dynamic law, G...

Research on automatic tracking solar concentrator photovoltaic systems has gained increasing focus in developing the solar PV technology. A paraboloidal concentrator with secondary optic is developed for a three-junction GaInP/GalnAs/Ge solar cell. The concentration ratio of this system is 200 and the photovoltaic cell is cooled by heat pipe. A detailed analysis on the temperature coefficient i...
