Chloroform, methanol and ethanol extract exhibited significant antimicrobial activity and highlighted the biological monitoring of activity from the methanol extract of seeds. Phytochemical screening of the diethyl ether, methanol and aqueous extracts of seeds confirmed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, sterols and triterpenes, carotenoids, coumarins, tannins and carbohydrates. Chloroform extract was fractionated by sing liquid solid column chromatographic technique and column fractions eluted with chloroform and methanol. The antibacterial secondary metabolites were achieved by fractionation of the active. The seed extracts were monitored analytically by TLC preparative and some chemical analyses of seeds have been done such as determination of ash, nitrogen, protein content.展开更多
Dilution and attenuation factor (DAF) has a major influence on soil-to-groundwater screening level calculation for protection of contaminant migration from soil into groundwater at solid waste management units (SWMUs)...Dilution and attenuation factor (DAF) has a major influence on soil-to-groundwater screening level calculation for protection of contaminant migration from soil into groundwater at solid waste management units (SWMUs). Risk assessment guidance prepared by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for site investigation and remediation suggests a default DAF of 20. If the base assumptions included in the default DAF are recognized to be not representative of site conditions at a SWMU, calculation of site-specific DAF is recommended when sufficient data are collected to justify using a different DAF value for development of soil screening levels. Commonly used methods of calculating DAF include analytical and numerical simulations that often require too many parameters to be obtained in practice. This paper proposes a probability method to develop site-specific DAF. The approach uses data that are readily available through field reconnaissance and site-specific investigation. A case study is presented in which the probability method was applied to an actual SWMU, and the calculated DAF is compared with that calculated from a dilution method. The probability-based DAF is 67 at 90% probability percentile, which is comparable to the dilution-based DAF of 76. Based on the calculated site-specific DAFs, SSLs could be developed for the contaminants of potential concern and used for evaluation of migration pathways from a contamination source through soil to groundwater. .展开更多
