Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffects of D- and L-Glucose and Mannitol on Retinal Capillary Cells: Inhibition by Nanomolar AminoguanidineYongxin Yu, Wei Li, Barbara Wojciechowski et al.Hyperglycemia may contribute directly to pericyte loss and capillary leakage in early diabetic retinopathy. To elucidate relative contributions of glycation, glycoxidation, sugar autoxidation, osmotic stress and metabolic effects in glucose-mediated capillary damage, we tested the effects of D-glucose, L-glucose, mannitol and the potentially protective effects of aminoguanidine on cultured bovine retinal capillary pericytes and endothelial cells. Media (containing 5 mM … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesBusiness Cycle Synchronization Between Australia and New ZealandJie Wei, Minsoo Lee, Christopher GanThere has been a high degree of economic and financial integration between Australia and New Zealand with free trade agreements linking the capital and labor markets. Given a strong economic relationship, business-cycle transmission is expected to exist between the two countries. By analyzing the shock-transmission channels via trade, monetary policy, and exchange rates between Australia and New Zealand we can … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCross Layer Optimization Based on Rate Distribution in Multirate Wireless Sensor NetworkHonggang Wang, Dongming Peng, Wei Wang, Hamid SharifIt is important to increase the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) lifetime, due to its limited energy resource, while meeting the constraints of applications. Recent Advances for In-Network Processing (INP) motivate many WSN applications which are based on multi rate and distributed signal processing, and therefore require the support of rate-based routing as well as MAC and link layer designs to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,557 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Physical Refining on Palm Vitamin E (Tocopherol, Tocotrienol and Tocomonoenol)Chiew Wei Puah, Yuen May Choo, Ah Ngan Ma, Cheng Hock ChuahThis study reports the effect of physical refining on palm vitamin E including α- tocopherol, α-, γ and α-tocotrienols as well as α- tocomonoenol. A method using HPLC with fluorescence detector using normal phase silica column is described. An isocratic elution with n-hexane/THF/2-propanol (1000:60:4, by vol.) as mobile phase was used. The structure of the α- tocomonoenol was determined using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Novel Image Component Transmission Approach to Improve Image Quality and Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor NetworksWei Wang, Dongming Peng, Honggang Wang, Hamid SharifDue to resource constraints, digital image transmissions are a significant challenge for image sensor based Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). In this paper, we propose a novel robust and energy-efficient scheme, called Image Component Transmission (ICT) in WSN by providing various levels of reliability during image transmissions. Different components in the embedded wavelet image bit stream are considered and essential components … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAqueous Extract of Inonotus bliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) Significantly Inhibits the Growth of Sarcoma 180 by Inducing ApoptosisCaifa Chen, Weifa Zheng, Xiaowen Gao et al.Inonotus obliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) has been widely used as a folk medicine to treat various cancers in Russia, Poland and most of Baltic countries for literally more than four centuries. However, in spite of its therapeutic significance for cancers, this fungus has not been studied systematically for the mechanisms of antitumor activity. In this study, we report the effects … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 21,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSupercritical Fluid Extraction of Palm CarotenoidsPuah C. Wei, Choo Y. May, Ma A. Ngan, Chuah C. HockThe extraction of carotenoids from crude palm oil was carried out in a dynamic (flow- through) supercritical fluid extraction system. The carotenoids obtained were quantified using off-line UV-visible spectrophotometry. The effects of operating pressure and temperature, flow rate of the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2), sample size of feed used on the solubility of palm carotenoids were investigated. The results showed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesParallel Iterative Algorithms with Accelerate Convergence for Solving Implicit Difference EquationsQing-Fu Liu, Wei-Jun Zhong, Mancho ManevThis study focuses on the solution of implicit difference equations, which are very difficult to compute in parallel for the diffusion equation. For improving the convergence rates and the properties of gradual-approach convergence of Segment-Classic-Implicit-Iterative (SCII) and Segment-Crank-Nicolson-Iterative (SCNI) algorithms realizing efficient iterative computation in parallel by segmenting grid domains, SCII and SCNI algorithms with accelerated convergence are studied and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,801 accessesView PDFCite
