Chemical and electron microbial influenced corrosion


ABSTRACT:
In microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) study, the electron acceptor of the cathode plays a decisive influence on corrosion characteristics. Some bacteria which can directly absorb electrons releasing from the anode reaction of the microbial dissolution of iron have been found in anaerobic biofilm studies, including some of the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), methanogens and some other corrosion-reducing bacteria. These bacteria in biofilm are showing severe corrosion because of their different electron transfer mechanism. The corrosion mechanisms of these corrosion bacteria is called electron microbial influenced corrosion(EMIC), EMIC and its electronic transfer mechanisms distinct from those chemical microbial influenced corrosion(CMIC) mechanism bacteria that indirectly effects on the anode and cathode electrode reaction from nature. In recent years, EMIC mechanism has become a hot topic in the field of microbial corrosion. This paper describes the microbial membrane CMIC and EMIC and its electronic delivery mechanisms in detail, and gives some suggestions on corrosion studies.

Quantitative analysis of civetone and normuscone in secretion from Viverricula indica and in aromatic remedies by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Image
ABSTRACT : The quantitation of civetone and normuscone in small Indian civet (Viverricula indica Desmarest) secretion cultivated in Thailand was analyzed by gas chromatography- mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Three main chemical constituents of small Indian civet secretion were civetone, dihydrocivetone and normuscone. The contents of chemical constituents were different between male and female secretion. Civetone (23.6 ± 1.5 µg/mg of secretion) was a major chemical constituent in the female secretion while normuscone (52.1 ± 5.9 µg/mg of secretion) was a major in the male secretion. Both civetone and normuscone were found in civet fur but not in the feces. Aromatic remedies which claimed to use the small Indian civet secretion as an ingredient showed both civetone and normuscone. Linearity range of civetone was 0-50 µg/ml with a correlation coefficient of 0.9717, and of normuscone was 0-80 µg/ml with a correlation coefficient of 0.9965. The average recoveries were 97.3-98.0% in sec...

Antimicrobial activity of aqueous, ethanolic, methanolic, cyclohexanic extracts and essential oil of Nigella sativa seeds

Image
  ABSTRACT : Most of the bacterial pathogens are resistant to existing synthetic antibacterial agents demanding an increasing effort to seek effective phytochemicals as antibacterial agents against such pathogens. Nigella sativa L. (black cumin) seeds play an important role in folk medicine and some of its major constituents are reported to be pharmacologically active. In this present work, Nigellasativa seed extracts were obtained using maceration extraction by various solvents (water, ethanol, methanol, and cyclohexan). The antibacterial and antifungal effects of different extracts and essential oil of seeds were investigated by the agar diffusion method against two gram positive (Bacillus subtilis CIP52.62 ,Staphylococcus aureus CIP4.83) and three gram negative strains of bacteria (Escherichia coli CIP53.126 ,Pseudomonas aeroginosa CIP82.118, Salmonella abony CIP80.39) and one strain of fungi (Candida albicans CIP48.72). All the extracts and essential oil showed varying d...

Analysis of total phenols,total tannins and screening of phytocomponents in Indigofera aspalathoides (Shivanar Vembu) Vahl EX DC

Image
ABSTRACT: The plant Indigofera aspalathoides is popularly known as Sivanar vembu in Tamil belongs to the family fabaceae. The stem is traditionally used for various skin disorders and cancer. In the traditional medicinal system, the leaves, flowers and tender shoot are said to be cooling and demulcent, they are used in the form of decoction for leprosy and cancer affections. Qualitative and quantitative Phytocomponents test were screened in Indigofera aspalathoides. The total content of some important phytochemical constituents like phenols, tannins of Indigofera aspalathoides by studied using spectrophotometric methods. The results showed that the plant is rich in phenols (47.38±1.532) compare than Tannins (34.59±1.788).  Further details Home page URL : http://www.jocpr.com/ For more details PDF Link :  http://www.jocpr.com/articles/analysis-of-total-phenolstotal-tannins-and-screening-of-phytocomponents-in-indigofera-aspalathoides-shivanar-vembu-vahl.pdf
