Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutrient Contents per Serving of Twelve Varieties of Cooked Rice Marketed in JordanJafar M. El-Qudah, Basem F. Dababneh, Ala'a A. Al-Bakheit et al.Jordan imports rice from different countries without any quality preferences. Twelve varieties of cooked rice marketed in Jordan were analyzed. The content per serving of these varieties were computed for energy, protein, carbohydrates, fat, calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, copper, iron and phosphorous. The protein content per serving found to range from 0.49 g for La Cigala rice to 6.2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreased Copper-Mediated Oxidation of Membrane Phosphatidylethanolamine in AutismAbha Chauhan, Ashfaq M. Sheikh, Ved ChauhanWe have previously reported that levels of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the erythrocyte membrane and of ceruloplasmin, a copper-transport antioxidant protein, in the serum are lower in children with autism than in control subjects. In the present study, we report that (a) copper oxidizes and reduces the levels of membrane PE and (b) copper-mediated oxidation of PE is higher in lymphoblasts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Tactile Sensor for Detection of Skin Surface Morphology and its Application in Telemedicine SystemsRoozbeh Khodambashi, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli Golpaygani et al.We proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of determining the surface morphology of skin lesions. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. One of the coils acts as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,260 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Novel Metal Accumulating Extracellular Protease Secreting Bacteria from Marine Coastal Region of Digha in West Bengal, IndiaSusmita Roy, Kaushal Mishra, Sanhita Chowdhury et al.Problem statement: The objective of the present piece of work was to explore the existing biodiversity of protease secreting microbes in a marine ecosystem, the site selected being the coastal region of West Bengal (Digha), India. Approach: The culture dependent method was used for isolation and characterization of novel microbes from the point of biotechnological application. The isolate obtained was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrace Metal Effect on Hydrogen Production Using C.acetobutylicumHisham Alshiyab, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffThis study was carried out to study the effect of trace metal addition for hydrogen production The results show that this bacterial need a selected nutrient with selected concentration. The optimum parameters for cultivation were at initial pH of 7.0 and temperature of 30°C. Trace metal addition to the new medium showed that only iron enhanced the H2 yield. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Charaterization of Magnesium Zinc Ferrites as Electromagnetic SourceNoorhana Yahya, Ami Salwani Mohamad Nor Aripin, Azizuddin A. Aziz et al.Fabrication of Mg1-XZnXFe2O4 (where x = 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) samples using a conventional technique is reported. Oxides of magnesium, zinc and iron with purity of about 99.99% were mixed with distilled water in a milling machine for 12 hours. They were then filtered and presintered at 1250°C and sintered at 1350°C for 10 h in air. The phase … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDensification Behaviour of a Red Firing Tunisian Triassic ClayHajer Baccour, Mounir Medhioub, Fakher Jamoussi, Taher. MhiriInvestigations were undertaken to assess the thermal modification in clay products from Triassic sedimentary deposits. This study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical, thermal analysis and faience making attributes of representative Triassic clay in the south-Eastern Tunisia. The data collected from these techniques show that illite and kaolinite are the major clay phases. The accessory minerals detected in powdered rock are; … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe NifX Protein is Involved in the Final Stages of FeMo-cofactor Transport to the MoFe ProteinSurobhi Lahiri, Byron Cole, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe nitrogenase enzyme catalyzes the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia and is composed of the Fe and MoFe proteins. The iron molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co) of the MoFe protein is the site of active substrate reduction. The NifX protein has also been suggested to have a role in the FeMo-co synthesis, although its exact role is still open to investigation. We … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Harmonic Components on Transformer Losses of Sinusoidal Source Supplying Non-Linear LoadsI. Daut, H. S. Syafruddin, Rosnazri Ali et al.An important consideration when evaluating the impact of harmonics is their effect on power system component and loads. Transformers are major components in power systems. The increased losses due to harmonic distortion can cause excessive losses and hence abnormal temperature rise. The measurement of iron losses and copper losses of single-phase transformers is important in particular for transformers feeding nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,398 accessesView PDFCite
