Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction of Barbodes spp. in ThailandKeeravit Petjul, Aphidech Sangdee, Bungorn Thaewnon-ngiwProblem statement: The genetic diversity of Barbodes species in Thailand is presently unavailable. The objectives of this study were to study external morphology and genetic diversity using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR) of three Barbodes species; Barbodes altus, B. gonionotus and Barbodes sp. Approach: Two of twelve screened decanucleotide primers (OPA07 and UBC122), were selected for the genetic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 8,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxicity Studies of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in Macrophage and Liver CellsAroonsri Priprem, Pramote Mahakunakorn, Chunpen Thomas, Ian ThomasSuperparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) prepared by simplified coprecipitation were attractive as MRI contrast agents and drug carriers which could internally be manipulated under the influence of an external magnetic field and also cancer treatment due to additional hyperthermia effects. Problem statement: Macrophage and liver cells are potentially exposed to internal SPIONs, thus used for this cytotoxic tests for safety … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2011 · 11,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCondoms-As Sources of Extracellular Enzyme Producing MicrobesMadhusmita Mishra, Poulomi Nandy, Sarvani Debsarma et al.Problem statement: Condoms are widely used birth control measures which are made of natural latex or synthetic materials like polyurethane or polyisoprene as matrix with lubricants added to make them ready to use commodities. Absence of sterilization method along with presence of lubricant like petroleum jelly (that are applied on the outer surface), prompted the investigators to look for microbes … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 May 2011 · 8,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpression of the CD44 Protein in the Heart Valves Affected with Rheumatic Heart DiseaseR. Vijayalakshmi, S. Nayar, K.M. CherianProblem statement: The primary aim was to study the expression of CD44 protein in the heart valves removed surgically for either stenosis or regurgitation and to study the morphology of valves using histochemical staining. Approach: We studied 107 valves which were collected from the International Centre for Cardio Thoracic and Vascular Diseases. Results: Aortic and mitral valves were obtained from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Bayesian Learning for Automatic Arabic Text CategorizationBassam Al-Salemi, Mohd. Juzaiddin Ab AzizProblem statement: The rapid increasing of online Arabic documents necessitated applying Text Categorization techniques that are commonly used for English language to categorize them automatically. The complex morphology of Arabic language and its large vocabulary size make applying these techniques directly difficult and costly in time and effort. Approach: We have investigated Bayesian learning models in order to enhance Arabic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation of Cluster Bed-Form Formation Over Uniform SedimentMasoud Karbasi, Mohammad H. Omid, Javad FarhoudiProblem statement: Cluster microforms are a type of small scale bed-form found in the surface layer of some gravel bed rivers. These bed-forms are comprised of discrete, organized groupings of particles that sit above the average elevation of the surrounding bed. As part of the structural organization of the bed, clusters are believed to impact the local dynamics of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,878 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEco-Friendly Synthesis of Fucoidan-Stabilized Gold NanoparticlesKriengsak Lirdprapamongkol, Warangkana Warisnoicharoen, Suwicha Soisuwan, Jisnuson SvastiProblem statement: Metallic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in many applications including medical, pharmaceutical, diagnostics and sensors. The chemical synthesis of AuNPs normally requires synthetic materials which might cause the toxicological concerns. The use of naturally occurring materials like fucoidans for successful synthesis of AuNPs is of interests. Approach: Fucoidans as sulfated polysaccharides from marine algae Cladosiphon okamuranus (o-fucoidan) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Morphological Method for Detection and Recognition of Vehicle License PlatesS.H. Mohades Kasaei, S.M. Mohades Kasaei, S. A. MonadjemiProblem statement: License plate detection and recognition is an image-processing technique used to identify a vehicle by its license plate. This notable technology has got multiple applications in various traffic and security cases. To name but a few, toll roads, border control, security and car tracking are same of its applications. The main stage is the isolation of the license … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,656 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Characteristics and Pathogenicity of Synchytrium psophocarpi (Rac.) Baumann Associated With False Rust on Winged BeanAbdollah Karami, Zainal Abidin Mior Ahmad, Kamaruzaman SijamProblem statement: Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus L.) is an important tropical legume in countries like Malaysia due to its potential as a high protein value crop. However, bright-orange pustules observed on the veins of young leaves, stems, pods and sepals depict symptoms of false rust disease on beans. The causal agent of this disease has been found to be Synchytrium … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 9,581 accessesView PDFCite
