Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,202 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMalaria and Climate Change: Discussion on Economic ImpactsMd. Shahin Mia, Rawshan Ara Begum, Ah-Choy Er et al.Problem statement: Climate change is a global environmental change that is adversely affecting human health by causing various health impacts in countries throughout the world. Climate is the most influential driving force of vector-borne diseases such as malaria. Changes in climate factors substantially affect reproduction, development, distribution and seasonal transmissions of malaria. Climate change increases the outbreak of malaria which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Image Watermarking Using Discrete Wavelet TransformDhandapani Samiappan, Krishnan AmmasiProblem statement: Digital Watermarking have gained popularity in recent years as a means of protecting multimedia data from illegal copying and unlawful reproduction. It is mainly used for copyright protection of multimedia data. Approach: In this study an image watermarking algorithm which is blind (do not require the presence of host image for detection) and robust is proposed. Results: The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2010 · 8,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDNA Polymorphism of Bovine Pituitary-Specific Transcription Factor and Leptin Gene Between Iranian Bos indicus and Bos taurus CattleArash Javanmard, Nader Asadzadeh, Fatollah SarhadiProblem statement: Variations at DNA level contribute to the genetic characterization of livestock populations and this may help to identify possible hybridization events as well as past evolutionary trends. Approach: The leptin and Pit-1 are attractive candidate genes for production and reproduction traits in cattle. A total of 247 Animals from four breeds from two species of Iranian cattle populations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Performance of Replacement Heifers in Hot Arid Environment Under Intensive ManagementM. A. Razzaque, S. A. Mohammed, T. Al- Mutawa, M. BedairProblem statement: Imported Holstein Friesian dairy cattle are exposed to hot arid climate in feedlot management in Kuwait. Desert climate is extreme reaching high 45-50°C in summer and low -4ºC in winter at day and night respectively. High calf mortality, poor reproduction and milk yields were main constraints to viable dairying. The objectives of this study were to assess the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImage Compression and Reconstruction using Cubic Spline Interpolation TechniqueR. Muthaiah, K. NeelaKantan, Vidur Sharma, Amit AroraA new dimension of image compression using random pixels of irregular sampling and image reconstruction using cubic-spline interpolation techniques proposed in this paper. It also covers the wide field of multimedia communication concerned with multimedia messaging (MMS) and image transfer through mobile phones and tried to find a mechanism to transfer images with minimum bandwidth requirement. This method would provide … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPattern of Survival and Mortality of Mangrove Populations Grown at Al-Jubail Area (Saudi Arabia) of the Arabian GulfAkram Ali, Ahmed Alfarhan, Ernest Robinson, Ibrahim AldjainThe life table and fecundity schedule were produced for [Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh] populations of four habitat types at Al-Jubail area, KSA. These types are sand mounds, salt flats, shoreline and intertidal sites. Survivorship (lx) was least in sand mounds and similar in all other sites. Age-specific-mortality rates (qx) where parallel in the flower bud, flower, fruiting and seedling stages … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLossless Compression Using LFSRsR. Muthiah, K. Neelakantan, Somi SebastianWhile lossy compression techniques are used for images, sound. where feature reproduction is more important than the actual data, it is necessary to use lossless compression for certain files containing data, programmes. Lossless compression techniques are not as effective as lossy ones and usually require a lot of computation for both compression and decompression. We presented a novel lossless compression … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
