The results showed that cassava varieties had different tolerance to waterlogging: some varieties showed physiological symptoms only after 3 days of growth on waterlogging conditions such as the number of leavesplant decreasing to 83.93 %. 93.75 %, 93.81 %, 95.88 % and 96.48 % in cassava varieties C86, C23, Hanoi3, C84 and C31, respectively. After 6 days of waterlogging, the percentage of yellow leaves in some varieties of cassava had been increased, attained up to 40 % of the total leavesplant turned yellow such as C71 (44.68 %) or C13 (53.12 %) varieties while other cassava varieties wilted and die 100 % such as Hanoi3, C10, C13, C34, C42, C66, C71, C84 and C86; along with the symtoms of morphological and growth of cassava varieties on waterlogging conditions, the total of chlorophyll content also decreased. After 9 days of waterlogging, only C60 variety remained chlorophyll content with 77.38 % but in other cassava varieties, the chlorophyll content was not more than 50 %. We founded that the longer the duration of waterlogging, the more tolerant response of the studied cassava varieties was revealed. After 12 days of experiment, we initially determined that the C60 variety was the best flood tolerance among the 17 studied varieties and this was a good source of materials on selecting the variety of flood tolerant cassava.","PeriodicalId":17007,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Science Natural Science","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79024082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At present, there are no other sources of natural phycocyanin than Spirulina, it is the sole efficient source of natural phycocyanin production under photoautotrophic conditions. The present research was conducted to determine an efficient extraction method from C-PC from Spirulina platensis dry biomass. Antioxidant activity of purified C-PC was investigated. Extractions were carried out using distilled water and Na-phosphate buffer pH 7.0 as solvents and freezethaw and ultrasonication techniques were applied to optimize the extraction process. Extraction using the freezethaw method proved to be the most efficient method. Phycocyanin purification from crude extracts was carried out by a combination of methods such as ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4 65% precipitation, dialysis filter, and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration chromatography, to give 121.63 ± 0.03 mgg C-PC content and 3.52 ± 0.04 purity. Antioxidant activity in vitro was determined by nitric oxide (NO) scavenging activity, percentage inhibition of NO by the C-PC in concentration 10 μgmL to 100 μgmL which significantly scavenged 55.89% to 91.54% of NO radicals, respectively. They exhibited strong NO radical scavenging capacity, the C-PC and vitamin C were able to reduce the stable NO radical to 50% reduction with EC50 of 4.53 and 3.66 µgmL. Research results showed that S. platenis dry biomass provided by Dalitra was potential for obtaining C-phycocyanin (12.16% of dry biomass) and it was evaluated as an antioxidant in vitro able to scavenge nitric oxide.

The simulation shows that Na atoms are not uniformly distributed through polyhedrons, but they mainly gather in nonbridging oxygen (NBO) and free oxygen (FO) polyhedrons. More than 75.22% of total Na atoms are place in NBO polyhedrons, although the number of NBO polyhedrons is only 22.27%. The two motion types give mainly contribution to Na diffusion: hopping of isolated Na atom or collective displacement. During 150 ps, the system comprises two separate regions: Na-poor regions formed by Si-O subnets and Na-rich regions formed by O2 clusters. The two regions have strongly different chemical composition, the density of Na atoms as well as motion type of Na atoms.","PeriodicalId":17007,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Science Natural Science","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79953967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concept of multiscaled landscape classification based on the European Landscape Convention (ELC) is applied for combining the holistic with parametric approaches and combining typological with multi-scaled landscape classifications. A number of possible combinations between 9 land cover variables, 9 soil combination variables, and 5 topographic variables have yielded 40 landscape units for Lang Son province.
