Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVertical Profile of C, N, P, K and Radionuclides in Soil Collected from Highland Tea Plantation AreasZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Cameron Highlands is a well known agricultural area in Peninsular Malaysia. Long term usage of fertilizer has caused accumulation of major elemental component in the soil. This accumulation will cause enrichment of the nutrient in the catchment located at downstream of the river through runoff. Approach: Two tea plantations on the upstream with hilly condition plantation were selected … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPalmitate-Induced Translocation of Caveolin-3 and Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in CardiomyocytesCatherine J. Knowles, Megan Dionne, Martina Cebova, Ilka M. PinzProblem statement: Palmitate is a known cardiac lipotoxin that blunts cardiomyocyte contractile function and induces apoptosis, likely via accumulation of the lipotoxic ceramide. Ceramide is a sphingolipid and localizes to caveolae, which are lined in the inner membrane leaflet by caveolin proteins. In this study, we investigated the effects of palmitate on caveolin proteins and on endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2011 · 7,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetic Optimization of Folic Acid Polymer Conjugates for Drug TargetingJacob M. Ngoy, Sunny E. Iyuke, Clarence S. Yah, Wilhelm E. NeuseProblem statement: Folic Acid (FA) is an essential, bioavailable water soluble B-complex vitamin that helps in the replication of normal cells. It is obtained from natural sources and it deficiency can leads to oncogenic cells development. Within this frame work in mind, we designed and synthesized a new bioconjugate carrier that can enhance the effectiveness of FA. Approach: The polymeric … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Calcium Channel Blocking Activity of 1, 4-Dihydropyridine Derivatives Containing Ester Substitute and Phenyl Carbamoyl GroupBassem Sadek, Khairi Mustafa Salem Fahelelbom, Laurentiu Morusciag, Sigurd ElzProblem statement: Several studies on the synthesis of new nifedipine analogs have been carried out, but the literature reveled that no study on the synthesis and calcium channel blocking activity of the substituted ester with an amide (5-phenylcarbamoyl) moiety has been reported. Approach: Six new derivatives of m-nifedipine have been successfully synthesized by substituting an ester moiety with an amide … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 8,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo Source Emission Behavior of Helium Projectile Fragments in 84Kr Interactions at Around 1 GeV per nucleonManoj Kumar Singh, Arun Kumar Soma, Ramji Pathak et al.Problem statement: The emission of helium projectile fragments has been studied in 84Kr interactions with nuclei of the nuclear emulsion detector at relativistic energies below 2 GeV per nucleon. Approach: The angular distribution of helium projectile fragments in terms of transverse momentum could not be explained by a straight and clean-cut collision geometry hypothesis of Participant-Spectator (PS) Model. Results: Therefore, … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariational Homotopy Perturbation Method for the Zakharove-Kuznetsov EquationsMashaallah Matinfar, Maryam GhasemiProblem statement: In this research, the Variational Homotopy Perturbation Method (VHPM) which is a combination of Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) used for the Zakharove-Kuznetsov equations (ZK-equations). Approach: These two methods are proposed by chinese researcher J.H.He. M.A.Noor improved these two methods and established the VHPM. The numerical solution of ZK-equation is of great importance dut … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2010 · 7,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural Changes in the Ileum of White BALB/C Mice Experimentally Infected with Salmonella hadarAfaf Abdulrahman Yousif, Maan M. Neima AL-NaqeebProblem statement: Recently, Salmonella hadar has been isolated and identified from goat in Iraq. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the ultrastructural changes in the ileum epithelial cells of mice experimentally infected with Salmonella hadar. Approach: The white BALB/c mice inoculated orally with Salmonella enterica serovar hadar strain and their ileums were examined by transmission electron microscopy … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,113 accessesView PDFCite
