Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Alloxan-Diabetes on Gastrin-Releasing Peptide (GRP) Immunoreactivity in the Gastrointestinal Tract, of Sprague Dawley Rats and How This May Affect Some of the Diabetic ComplicationsEdward O. Uche-Nwachi, Camille V. MitchellGastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) is the mammalian analogue of bombesin. Both neuroendocrine peptides have similar distribution, functions and immunoreactivity. The immunoreactivity for GRP has been demonstrated in the esophagus, stomach and small intestine. This peptide is reported to have various biological and pharmacological properties, which include the release of gastrointestinal hormones, control of satiety, gastrointestinal motility and stimulation of cellular proliferation … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosorption of Cr(III) by Microalgae and Macroalgae: Equilibrium of the ProcessIzabela Michalak, Agnieszka Zielinska, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Jan MatulaEquilibrium experiments of chromium(III) biosorption by microalga (Spirulina sp.) and macroalga (Pithophora varia) were investigated in this paper. Influence of the following process parameters was studied: pH, biomass concentration and temperature. The equilibrium of the process was described with Langmuir equation. The model parameters were determined at various process conditions. The best operation conditions for the process were selected: pH … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormal Validation of the Safety Property of Sack Protocol Using Theorem Proving TechniqueZ. Shukur, N. Alias, M. H. Mohamed Halip, B. IdrusThis paper demonstrates the formal validation process of safety properties of Selective ACKnowledgment (SACK) protocol. SACK is a complex communication protocol as it is used in various types of distributed computer systems and networks. This acknowledgment mechanism is used with sliding window protocol that allows the receiver to acknowledge packets received out of order, but within the correct sliding window. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Bacterial Species Isolated from Malaysian Sea Cucumbers with Optimized Secreted Antibacterial ActivityAbd El-Aziem Farouk, Faizal Abd. Hamid Ghouse, B.H. RidzwanIn this study, several Malaysian sea cucumber species that have traditional medicine value were selected and from them, the native bacterial population was isolated. Optimization of growth was designed and all bacterial secretions were tested for antibacterial properties. 30 bacterial types were isolated and 7 types recorded moderate antibacterial activity against K. pneumoniae, S. marscens, P. aeruginosa and E. feacalis. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency Behavior of a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) in Contact with Selected SolutionsZ. A. Talib, Z. Baba, S. Kurosawa et al.A device was constructed to monitor viscosity of solutions using fundamental frequency of 9 MHz and 10 MHz quartz crystal. Piezoelectric quartz crystals with gold electrodes were mounted by O-ring in between liquid flow cell. Only one side of the crystal was exposed to the solutions which were pumped through silicon tube by a peristaltic pump. The measured frequency shift … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,514 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved AIMD- A Mathematical StudyV. S.P. Srivastav, M. K. Gupta, Sachin Kumar, Kadambri AgarwalOne of the crucial elements in the Internet is the ability to adequately control Congestion. AIMD (Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease) is the best algorithm among the set of liner algorithms because it reflects good efficiency as well as good fairness. Our Control model is based on original approach of AIMD. In this paper we introduce improved version of AIMD. We … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification, Characterization and Quantification of Elastomeric/Plastomeric Waste for Sustainable Waste MinimizationKajal Yadav, Sangita, A. ChandraThe present study focuses on the importance of characterization of waste/post consumer polymers. In recent years sophisticated instrumental techniques played an important role in identification and characterization of polymers. Advances in computer techniques have been combined with analytical instruments to give analytical speed, resolution and minimal sample requirements unimagined a few years ago. The present study deals with the development … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordFabrication of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) Derived from Themeda gigantea Cellulose with Various Concentrations of Sodium MonochloroacetateDaimon Syukri, Heru Suryanto, Anni Faridah et al.The purpose of this study was to determine the properties of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) obtained from pimping stems (Themeda gigantea). There has yet to be a report on utilizing Themeda gigantea as a source of CMC raw materials. CMC was produced by varying the amount of Sodium Monochloroacetate (SMCA) as a carboxymethylation material. This study consisted of five SMCA treatments, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 24 Oct 2024 · 5,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAnti-Inflammatory Properties of Crude Extracts and Anti-Cancer Properties of Acetone Extract of Moringa Oleifera Lam. Flowers on Cell Line ModelsSandisiwe Maposa, Gloria Aderonke Otunola, Anthony Jide AfolayanIn recent times, Moringa oleifera has earned great interest for its various physiological and therapeutic benefits. Acetone, ethanol, methanol, and aqueous extracts of Moringa oleifera flowers were investigated for anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer potential. Anti-inflammatory capacity was evaluated using the inhibition of nitric oxide production (LPS-induced) on RAW 264.7, and cell viability was appraised with the MTT assay. The potential of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2026 · 1,464 accessesView PDFCite
