Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobile Element Scheduling for Efficient Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks: A SurveyK. Indra Gandhi, P. NarayanasamyProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has become a very interesting field of research and has been deployed for various applications. The data sensed by the sensors need to be transmitted over to a Base Station (BS) where the data processing is done. Approach: The existing systems generally employ Multi-hop routing for data aggregation at the BS, where several nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2011 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Nigella Sativa L. Essential Oil-Loaded Solid Lipid NanoparticlesNagi A. ALHaj, Mariana N. Shamsudin, Norfarrah M. Alipiah et al.Problem statement: Seeds of Nigella Sativa L., commonly known as black seed, have been used in traditional medicine by many Asian, Middle Eastern and Far Eastern Countries to treat headache, coughs, abdominal pain, diarrhea, asthma, rheumatism and other diseases. The seeds of this plant are the most extensively studied, both phytochemically and pharmacologically. The aqueous and oil extracts of the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 17,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethicilin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Carriage amongst Healthcare Workers of the Critical Care Units in a Nigerian HospitalA. Fadeyi, B.O. Bolaji, O.O. Oyedepo et al.Problem statement: Methicilin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Nosocomial Infection (NI) outbreaks and prevalence among various populations are well reported in literature particularly for developed countries. NI due to MRSA is a known cause of increased hospital stay, cost, morbidity and mortality especially among the critically ill. There is paucity of information on MRSA in developing nations including the carriage by … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAerobic Biodegradation of Per-Treated Methyl Tert-Butyl Ether By Ozonation in an Up-Flow-Fixed-Bed ReactorM. Sadeghi, M. Arbabi, A. Nikpey, G. MardaniProblem Statement: MTBE is a common pollution of environmental and has become an issue of considerable concern in recent years. It is not readily amenable to remove MTBE by conventional techniques in water treatment. In the present study, the feasibility of the continuous aerobic biodegradation of MTBE, was evaluated in an Up- Flow Fixed Bed Reactor (UFBR). Approach: The UFBR … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Magnetic Field on the Formation of Spin-polaron in Mn-Zn FerritesH. M.El SayedThe effect of magnetic field on the transport properties of Mn-Zn ferrite was studied. It was found that, the resistivity has an inverse relation with the applied magnetic field. This was attributed to the reduction of the scattering between the charge carriers and the disordered spins. Also, it was found that, the activation energy in the paramagnetic region is strongly … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Defects Annihilation in GaAs1-xNx Layers by Si-dopingN. Ben Sedrine, A. Hamdouni, J. Rihani et al.The photoluminescence (PL) properties of Si-doped GaAs0.985N0.015 with different silicon content were investigated. The study was carried out on a set of three samples grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) on GaAs (001) oriented substrate using a radio frequency nitrogen beam source. For all samples, the PL measurements show the presence of a wide band situated at 0.83 eV which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk of Second Non Breast Malignancies (SNBM) in Relation to Brca1 And Brca2 Mutation Status Following Breast-Conserving Surgery and RadiotherapyYoulia M. Kirova, Alain Fourquet, Alexia Savignoni, Brigitte Sigal-ZafraniWomen from hereditary breast cancer families with BRCA1/2 germline mutation are at increased risk for contralateral breast cancer (BC) and for ovarian cancer (OC). It is less clear whether mutation status influences the rate of SNBM other than OC. In addition, little is known on the risk of OC in individuals from hereditary BC families without identified BRCA mutation. Our … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) from Mediterranean to Sub-Saharan AreasRosa Chillemi, Andrea Angius, Ivana Persico et al.There are differences in the allele frequency of MTHFR polymorphism between Western and African population. The aim of this study is to determinate the prevalence of MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphisms in young and old people living in different areas from Mediterranean to sub-Saharan areas. The observed vs expected genotype frequencies of 677T were in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, with the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Bit Error Rate Performance of Multi Tone Channel Utilising De-OQPSK and De-Off Set 16 QAM with Guard IntervalIbrahim A.Z. QatawnehDigital communications systems use Multi tone Channel (MC) transmission techniques with differentially encoded and differentially coherent demodulation. Today there are two principle MC application, one is for the high speed digital subscriber loop and the other is for the broadcasting of digital audio and video signals. In this study the comparison of multi carriers with OQPSK and Offset 16 QAM … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotocurrent and Photoluminescence Investigations of GaInNAs and GaInNAs(Sb) Quantum Wells Grown by Molecular Beam EpitaxyS. Ben Bouzid, F. Bousbih, A Hamdouni et al.We have investigated photocurrent (PC) and photoluminescence (PL) in sequentially grown GaInNAs/GaAs and GaInNAs(Sb)/GaAsSbN quantum wells. Photocurrent transitions are analyzed by theoretical calculations using envelope function formalism taking into account the strain effect and the strong coupling between nitrogen localized state and the GaInAs band gap. The results are consistent with a type I band alignment and a conduction band … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,475 accessesView PDFCite
