Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of a New, Rapid, Amperometric Immunosensor for the Detection of Low Concentrations of Bacteria Part II: Optimization of the System for Escherichia coliEric Carnes, Ebtisam WilkinsThe optimization of a flow-through immunoassay system was conducted to achieve rapid detection of low concentrations of E. coli bacteria. The system includes a new immunosensor that uses newly developed, disposable immunofiltration membranes to yield a system that is sensitive as well as simple. Comparison of the performance of this system with conventional immunoassays demonstrated a significantly shorter time for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Cellulase from Oil Palm Biomass as Substrate by Solid State BioconversionMd. Z. Alam, Nurdina Muhammad, Mohd E. MahmatSolid state bioconversion (SSB) of lignocellulosic material oil palm biomass (OPB) generated from palm oil industries as waste was conducted by evaluating the enzyme production through filamentous fungus in lab-scale experiment. OPB in the form of empty fruit bunches (EFB) was used as the solid substrate and treated with the fungus Trichoderma harzianum to produce cellulase. The results presented in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRAM 1.0 Software for Gaussian-Plume Multiple Source Air Quality SimulationLiren Yu, Paulo I.F. de AlmeidaThis study presents a developed software in environmental engineering, namely RAM 1.0 (RAM: Regulatory Air Model), adopted completely Graphical User Interface (GUI) technique, for operating in various Windows-based microcomputers. RAM 1.0 software consists of the improved RAM Model and RAM Algorithm as well as developed RAM 1.0 Graphical User Interface, respectively. RAM Model takes into account different ambient characteristics, meteorological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of Wastewater Oxidation under Microgravity ConditionsBoyun Guo, Donald W. Holder, David S. SchechterVolatile removal assembly (VRA) is a module installed in the International Space Station for removing contaminants (volatile organics) in the wastewater produced by the crew. The VRA contains a slim pack bed reactor to perform catalyst oxidation of the wastewater at elevated pressure and temperature under microgravity conditions. Optimal design of the reactor requires a thorough understanding about how the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Ecological Criteria of Noise Control With Application of AbsorbentsM. A. Al-NawaflehThe operation conditions of the industrial equipment, acoustic parameters essentially depend on type of the sound field (free, diffuse or mixed). Besides the effect of the noise control of the machine itself, the field type also important, which in turn depends on the degree and quality of acoustic preparation of the workshop. The criteria is an estimation of applicability broadband … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,805 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Socioeconomic and Demographic Factors on Contraceptive Use and Induced Abortion in TurkeyOzlem Alpu, Gunseli KurtThe aim of the study was to estimate the parameters of the heteroscedastic bivariate Probit model established for the induced abortion and the contraceptive use by using socioeconomic and demographic factors and their effects by eliminating the observed heteroscedasticity. Using a heteroscedastic bivariate Probit model and Turkish Demographic and Health Survey (1998) data on married women aged 15 through 49 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 6,719 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Scheme for Improved Performance of Fixed Outage Rate Cellular SystemHussein M.Aziz Basi, M. B.R. MurthyThe traffic characteristic of mobile cellular systems is rather distinct from that of a fixed telephone network. However the system planning and design are still carried out with the tools of conventional traffic theory. In the recent days much work is being done in the performance evaluation of mobile or cellular communication systems in order to develop a system with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Outlier Detection in Linear RegressionNethal K. Jajo, Xizhi WuNew methodology of robust outlier detection based on Robustly Studentized Robust Residuals (RSRR) examination is well established in linear regression analysis. Two new robust location estimators of linear regression parameters are developed in simple and multiple cases. Based on these robust estimators we obtain RSRR. We used RSRR to derive a new measure of distance to be used in outlier … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 6,933 accessesView PDFCite
