Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioconversion Efficiency of β-Carotene from Mango Fruit and Carrots in Vitamin AJose de Jesus Ornelas-Paz, Elhadi M. Yahia, Alfonso A. Gardea-BejarProblem statement: Bioconversion efficiency of β-Carotene (BC) in vitamin A is strongly influenced by food matrix. This efficiency has been determined mainly in typical BC sources like carrots. BC content in mango fruit is considerably high however; the bioconversion efficiency of BC from fresh mango in vitamin A has not been determined nor compared with those of typical BC sources. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,428 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Feeding Strategy and Carbohydrate Source on Carbohydrate Utilization by Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)L.X. Tian, Y.J. Liu, S.S.O. Hung et al.Problem statement: Feeding strategy is the important factor in aquaculture. Feeding strategy not only could affect the growth performance of grass carp and feed efficiency, but also could affect the quality and environment of water resource. We have proved that glucose was more suitable than starch as the carbohydrate source for grass carp under the restricted feeding frequency. While different … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Cardiolipin Antibody in Acute Myocardial InfarctionAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Shojaie, Samira Dana, Abdoulhossain MadaniProblem statement: Myocardial infarction is the combined result of environmental and personal factors. Data concerning the relation between anti-Phospholipid (aPL) antibodies and myocardial infarction in subjects without evidence of overt autoimmune disease are conflicting. Anticardiolipin antibody is detected in various diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome. The study of Anticardiolipin antibody in Acute Myocardial Infarction … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Rumen-Protected Methionine on Dairy Performance and Amino Acid Metabolism in Lactating CowsW.R. Yang, H. Sun, Q.Y. Wang et al.Problem statement: Free Met as one of the most limiting AA in dairy cows would be mostly degraded in the rumen. This study was to determine the effect of different levels of Rumen-Protected Met (RPMet) on dairy performance and serum amino acid metabolism. Approach: Thirty-six Holstein cows in similar condition were randomly assigned to six experimental treatments with six replicates … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAre There Smaller Leverage Effects in Less-Developed Markets? Evidence from an Oil Exporting CountryMosayeb Phalavani, Parinaz EzzatiProblem statement: This study uses daily data from the Tehran Stock Market (TSM) to illustrate the nature of stock market volatility in an undeveloped and young stock market. Although most studies suggest that a negative shock to stock prices will generate more volatility than a positive shock of equal magnitude but there is no evidence of asymmetric effect in TSM. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,519 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Delaying Sporulation by Addition of Ammonium Sulphate on the Fermentation of Palm Kernal Cake Based Substrate by Aspergillus nigerK. H. Swe, A. R. Alimon, M. RaminProblem statement: Asexual sporulation is a common reproductive mode for a diverse group of fungi and the ultimate limiting factor in fungal biomass production. Approach: Delaying sporulation may increase the biomass in terms of mycelial production and the same time increase production of enzymes. Results: In order to delay the sporulation different levels of ammonium sulphate (10, 12 and 14%) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth, Feed Utilization and Haematology of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell,1822) Fingerlings Fed Diets Containing Different Levels of Vitamin CM. Adunni Adewolu, O. Olakunle AroProblem statement: In an effort to increase growth, improve feed utilization, reduce stress and prevent certain diseases, a 14 week feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of different levels of dietary vitamin C (ascorbic acid) on growth, feed utilization and hematological changes in Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. Approach: Diets were formulated to contain 0, 50, 100, 150, 500, 1000 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWater Quality and Planktonic Communities in Al-Khadoud Spring, Al-Hassa, Saudi ArabiaAdel A. Fathi, Mohammed A. Al-KahtaniProblem statement: Al-Khadoud spring is one of the most important water resources in Al- Hassa Governorate, Saudi Arabia. However, much of its biotic information is still unknown. This study presented preliminary ecological information of this aquatic body. The aim of this research was to study the water characteristics and the planktonic organisms inhibiting Al-Khadoud spring and its irrigational channels for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy of Pravastatin in Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NNRTI) and Protease Inhibitor (PI)-based HAART in HIV-Infected PatientsSusan A. Eaton, Anita P. Rahman, Sean T. Nguyen et al.Pravastatin has generally been considered a safe and effective option for HIV-infected patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). However, pravastatin concentrations are known to significantly decrease with concomitant efavirenz (EFV) use. Currently there are no studies determining if these reductions in pravastatin possibly translate into an attenuation of its lipid lowering efficacy when used in HIV-infected patients on non-nucleoside … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of 2_D Turbidity Currents and Wall JetM.H. Shojaeefard, K. Goudarzi, H. Ghasvari JahromiDense underflows are continuous currents, which move down the slope due to the fact that, their density are heavier than ambient water. In turbidity currents the density differences arises from suspended solids. Vicinity of the wall make density currents and wall jets similar in some sense but Variation of density cause this flows more complex than wall jets. An improved … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
