Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioaugmentative Approaches for Dairy Wastewater TreatmentIrina Schneider, Yana TopalovaProblem statement: The achievement of a good ecological status of water receivers after discharge of waste or partially treated water from dairy industry requires harmonic interaction between water treatment technology and self-purification processes. Approach: The present research included two modules. First: an anaerobic treatment process for dairy wastewater in broadly spread sequencing batch bioreactor with fixed biomass was studied. As … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 8,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiac Depression Produced by L-Arginine and Phosphodiestrase Inhibitor on Isolated Mammalian Rabbit Heart: Function of Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP)Hussein F. Sakr, Fahaid Al-Hashem, Mahmoud Al-Khateeb et al.Problem statement: Cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate cGMP is one the important second messengers that determines the cardiomyocyte activity and its role in healthy and diseased cardiac muscle is still controversial. We are reporting the effect of adding L-arginine, the NO donor that stimulates cGMP production and Sildenafil citrate (phosphodiestrase inhibitor) that inhibits cGMP hydrolyis on isolated rabbit’s heart to answer: Is … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Activities of 238U, 232Th and 40K in Manganese OreH. A. Abel-GhanyProblem statement: Manganese ore is widely used in much industries. Such as ore contain natural radioactive nuclides at various concentrations. If this ore contain high concentrations of natural radioactive nuclides, workers handling them might be exposed to significant levels of radiation. Therefore it is important to determine the radioactive nuclides in this ore. Approach: The natural radionuclides (238U, 232Th and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on Wound Healing and Antiulcer Activities of Extract of Aerial Parts of Phyllanthus niruri L. (Euphorbiaceae)C. O. Okoli, A. C. Ezike, P. A. Akah et al.Problem statement: Phyllanthus niruri is widely used in many parts of the world to manage a wide range of diseases. As part of efforts to elucidate its pharmacological activities and hence medicinal potential, we studied the wound healing and antiulcer properties of extract of the aerial parts using experimentally-created wounds and ulcers in rodents. Approach: Wound healing effect was assessed … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractP-Glycoprotein-Mediated Efflux and Drug Sequestration in Lysosomes Confer Advantages of K562 Multidrug Resistance Sublines to Survive Prolonged Exposure to Cytotoxic AgentsNathupakorn Dechsupa, Samlee MankhetkornProblem statement: Cellular drug resistance to anticancer agents is major obstacle in cancer chemotherapy and the mechanisms by which these MDR cells possess for protecting themselves to survive prolonged exposure to cytotoxic agents still debating. The study aimed to clarify the role of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and enhanced drug sequestration in lysosomes to confer the multidrug resistance K562 cells with varied … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrust in Virtual UniversitiesAsghar Abolhasani Hastiani, Mohammad Ali SarlakThe number of students enrolled at Iranian virtual Universities during 2004-2007 years, annually accounted for less than 0.5% of traditional Iranian universities enrolment. The low rate of virtual Universities enrolment might be due to a low level of student's trust in this type of educational institution. Students with low trust in virtual universities may be less likely to enroll in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioeconomic Management and Fishing Selectivity: An Application to the European Hake FisheryM. Dolores Garza-Gil, Manuel M. Varela-LafuenteThe bioeconomic management in a fishery with intra-species selectivity is examined. As opposed to other works, we consider a model in which the fishing technology affects resource`s growth not only through the production function, but also through the natural growth rate of the marine resource. The analysis is applied to the European Southern hake stock (merlucius merlucius). The activity of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitivities of Uterine Adenocarcinoma, Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMT) and Sarcoma Cell Lines to Chemotherapeutic Agents and a Flex-Het DrugJohnny Hyde, Doris M. BenbrookThe administration and combination of a variety of chemotherapeutic agents for treatment of advanced or recurrent uterine cancer of different histologies is under current debate. Mixed Mullerian Tumors (MMTs), which contain both adenocarcinoma and sarcoma components, are the most rate histologic type and it is therefore difficult to conduct clinical trials to determine if they should be treated like endometrial … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,465 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Effects of Beet Root Juice on Stimulated and Unstimulated Peripheral Blood Mononuclear CellsChristiana Winkler, Barbara Wirleitner, Katharina Schroecksnadel et al.Intake of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants is suggested to reduce the incidence of cancer and coronary heart disease in humans. Exceptional antioxidant activity of beet root extracts has been reported. Likewise in animal models, e.g., extracts of red beetroot Beta vulgaris var. rubra revealed significant tumor inhibitory effects. Red beetroot concentrate is universally permitted as a food ingredient. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 9,528 accessesView PDFCite
