Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKnowledge Representation of Ion-Sensitive Field-Effect Transistor Voltage Response for Potassium Ion Concentration Detection in Mixed Potassium/Ammonium Ion SolutionsWan Fazlida Hanim Abdullah, Mohd Alaudin Mohd Ali, Md Shabiul Islam, Masuri OthmanProblem statement: The Ion-Sensitive Field-Effect Transistor (ISFET) is a metal-oxide field-effect transistor-based sensor that reacts to ionic activity at the electrolye/membrane/gate interface. The ionic sensor faces issue of selectivity from interfering ions that contribute to the sensor electrical response in mixed solutions. Approach: We present the training data collection of ISFET voltage response for the purpose of post-processing stage neural … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,816 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Pullulanase Type II from Bacillus cereus H1.5Hii Siew Ling, Tau Chuan Ling, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Arbakariya B. AriffProblem statement: Pullulanase is one of the important enzymes in starch industry. Search for the pullulanase with distinct features, possibly from easily grown bacterium, is of interest for industrial applications Approach: The extracellular pullulanase produced by Bacillus cereus HI.5 was purified by chromatographic method of DEAE-Sepharose, followed by Superdex gel filtration. The enzyme was characterized in terms of the optimal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Optical Properties of ZnO-TeO2 Glass SystemH. A.A. Sidek, S. Rosmawati, Z. A. Talib et al.Problem statement: Systematic series of ZnO-TeO2 glasses with mole fraction of 0.10-0.40 ZnO content with an interval of 0.05 were studied to obtain their physical and optical properties. Approach: All the glass samples were synthesized by rapid melting quenching method under controlled conditions, while their refractive indices (n) were measured by the EL X-02C high precision ellipsometer. The room temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 14,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuitability Evaluation of Groundwater for Irrigation, Drinking and Industrial PurposesM. A. Hakim, A. S. Juraimi, M. Begum et al.Problem statement: Groundwater is an important source of freshwater for agricultural, drinking and domestic uses in many regions of the world including Bangladesh.
