Eugenol Prevents Sodium Nitrate-induced Altered Antioxidant Status of Spermatozoa: An In Vitro Study
Abstract: Background: High level of nitrate (NO3) induces oxidative stress which affects the male and female reproductive system. In this regard, there is a great concern for the prevention of NO3-induced oxidative stress in the reproductive system by using herbal products. Eugenol is one such natural product found in clove extracted from cloves (Syzygium aromaticum) and is known for its antioxidant, anti-nociceptive, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. Aim and Objectives: The present …

Recent Trends in the Use of Chemicals in Farming and Food Processing
Abstract: Intake of food and drinks in pure form are unavoidable for the survival of life. However, there is need of serious concern towards food safety which is contaminated by the increasing environmental pollution and other ways of adulteration round the globe. Indiscriminate use of various food additives in fast growing food processing industries has created new problems instead of safeguarding the edibles. The motive behind making undue profits in these …

A Silver flickering in Infinity Power of Invisible Particle
Abstract: A charged particle, in a medium, which is at below detectable level has a capacity to react with another particle resulting in the formation of measurable particle. Thus, the reaction results in conversion of invisible particle to measurable visible particle. The experiment was carried out using easily reactive and water-soluble particles of silver nitrate and sodium chloride. The findings reveal the ability of invisible charged particles in nature to transform …

A Synthesis and Characterization of Copper Oxide Nano Hollow Spheres
Abstract: A simple precipitation and calcination method has been evolved for synthesis of copper oxide (CuO) nano hollow spheres in air ambience. Copper nitrate was used as precursor material in the preparation, and sodium hydroxide was used as precipitating agent. The precipitated particles were subjected to calcinations for oxidation. The obtained CuO nanoparticles were characterised by the following analytical methods of XRD, FTIR, DLS, AFM, SEM and TEM for feature of …

Effect of Solid Waste Leachate on the Quality of Underground Water Around Ruhueli Dumpsite in Rumuomoi Community, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: This study investigated the impact of open dumpsite leachate on groundwater quality by examining the physicochemical and microbiological properties of groundwater within the vicinity of a dumpsite in Ruhueli-Rumuomoi community, Rumuigbo, Rivers State, Nigeria. Groundwater samples were taken from three different boreholes in the study area at a distance of 30 m, 60 m and 90 m from the dumpsite. The results of the physicochemical parameters revealed that pH ranged …
