Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign, Synthesis, Biological Screening and Structure Activity Relationship Study of 4, 6-Dimethyl-2-(Substituted) Mercapto-3-(Substituted) Pyridines as Anti Tubercular AgentsMehul M. Patel, Mahesh T. ChhabriyaProblem statement: Tuberculosis is a leading global mortality factor which has not been effectively controlled, with 1.7 million deaths per year and 8.9 million new cases. Aerobic microbe Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) is the causative agent of tuberculosis. Although many active antitubercular agents have since been developed, drug resistance will continue to be a problem. Therefore, there is a clear … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelation between Macroscopic Binding Constant and the Anticancer Efficacy of the Bovine Serum Albumin-Quercetin Complex against Drug-Sensitive and Drug-Resistant CellsWinit Choiprasert, Chatchanok Loetchutinat, Nathupakorn Dechsupa, Samlee MankhetkornProblem statement: We have previously analyzed the interaction of BSA with flavonoids by using FRET. In this study, the role of BSA on increasing in solubility and on carrying the quercetin derivatives thus enhanced their anticancer efficacy against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant cells were conducted. Approach: The macroscopic (KD) and microscopic (kd) binding constant of the complexation and the cellular partition … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 May 2011 · 8,296 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating the Parameters of the Negative-Lindley Distribution using Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-ShannoNaushad Mamode KhanProblem statement: The Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) technique is the most efficient statistical approach to estimate parameters in a cross-sectional model. Often, MLE gives rise to a set of non-linear systems of equations that need to be solved iteratively using the Newton-Raphson technique. However, in some situations such as in the Negative-Lindley distribution where it involves more than one unknown … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 7,381 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Newton's Method with Diagonal Jacobian Approximation for Systems of Nonlinear EquationsM. Y. Waziri, W. J. Leong, M. A. Hassan, M. MonsiProblem statement: The major weaknesses of Newton method for nonlinear equations entail computation of Jacobian matrix and solving systems of n linear equations in each of the iterations. Approach: In some extent function derivatives are quit costly and Jacobian is computationally expensive which requires evaluation (storage) of n×n matrix in every iteration. Results: This storage requirement became unrealistic when n … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Multiderivative Collocation Method for 5th Order Ordinary Differential EquationsS. J. Kayode, D. O. AwoyemiProblem statement: The conventional methods of solving higher order differential equations have been by reducing them to systems of first order equations. This approach is cumbersome and increases computational time. Approach: To address this problem, a numerical algorithm for direct solution of 5th order initial value problems in ordinary differential equations (odes), using power series as basis function, is proposed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuercetin, Quercetrin Except Rutin Potentially Increased Pirarubicin Cytotoxicity by Non-Competitively Inhibiting the P-Glycoprotein-and MRP1 Function in Living K562/adr and GLC4/adr CellsWinit Choiprasert, Nathupakorn Dechsupa, Suchart Kothan et al.Problem statement: Quercetin and its glycoside derivatives are increasingly receiving interests as new generation of anticancer molecules and were recognized by multidrug resistant transporters such as P-glycoprotein and MRP1 protein. Of relevance to their use as anticancer agents alone or in combination with other agents, this study aims to analyze the interaction of the compounds with the MDR transporters including … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Model Reference Adaptive Controller for Lateral Motion of AircraftAbdelkader Maddi, Abderrezak Guesssoum, Daoued BerkaniProblem statement: This study developed a new application for the output model reference adaptive control of linear continuous systems based on the concepts of hyper-stability. Approach: The main idea is to design a non-linear controller which will ensure the minimal error between the reference model and the plant outputs. Results: Therefore, the synthesis of adaptive control with a model of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Mesogenic Schiff Base Esters with Polar Chloro Substituent: Synthesis, Thermotropic Properties and X-Ray Diffraction StudiesSie-Tiong Ha, Lay-Khoon Ong, Yasodha Sivasothy et al.Problem statement: Many studies have been conducted on the Schiff base’s alkyl and alkyloxy possessing terminal halogen substituent. However, the thermotropic properties of Schiff base’s ester (or alkanoyloxy) with chloro terminal group remained unstudied. Approach: Synthesis a series of new Schiff base ester possessing polar chloro group and investigate its mesomorphic properties. The title compounds were prepared via condensation and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 12,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioInfoPhysics Models of Neuronal Signal Processes Based on Theories of Electromagnetic FieldsKang Cheng, Chang H. ZouProblem statement: The aphasia is one of human language and action related brain associative diseases. The mechanisms of the diseases and the brain association are still unclear.
