Methanogenesis and Methane Flux in Marine Sediment
Abstract: ABSTRACTAnoxic environments methanogenesis is the key terminal biochemical process involved in the mineralization of organic matter which is catalyzed by methanogens. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the methanogenesis, methane flux of marine sediments and to study the effect of various parameters over the growth of marine methanogens in Arabian Sea deep sediment samples. The results showed best substrate for the methanogens activity to be formate (30.59 ngmol− …

Physiochemical Analysis of Rain Water and Surface Water Collected from Siltara Industrial Area, Raipur
Abstract: ABSTRACTA physicochemical analysis of rainwater collected from 04 station of the Siltara Industrial Area, Raipur was carried out during the months of May and June. The pH ranged from 6.20 to 6.80 whereas the acidity of water measured between 1.50 and 5.0 mg/L shows that there is a little bit of abnormal condition of environment in the industrial area here. The higher concentration of nitrate up to 0.25 mg/L has …

Nutritive Evaluation and Growth Rate of Artemia parthenogenetica
Abstract: ABSTRACTPresent study establishes the supply of nutritionally balanced feed and attempt to different food fed with Artemia such as rice bran (RB), algae (Chlorella vulgaris) and RB + algae given for growth of Artemia parthnogenetica. The survival and growth rate of A. parthnogenetica was identified with three types of food and total growth rates were measured. The maximum (7.14 ± 0.16 mm) and minimum (6.24 ± 0.21 mm) growth was …
