Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on CRDI System Assisted Diesel Engine Fulled by Diesel with NanotubesC. Syed Aalam, C.G. Saravanan, M. KannanThis paper reports on the use of carbon multiwalled nanotubes as additive to the diesel fuel and the effects of their operational characteristics and performance, emission and combustion characteristics of the CRDI system assisted diesel engine. In this study, the tested fuels were prepared by dispersing carbon multiwalled nanotubes into the diesel fuel at the mass fraction of 25 and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Jun 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytogenetic Analysis among Train Depot Workers Exposed to Total Volatile Organic CompoundsNormah Awang, Siti Adillah Isah, Asmah HamidOccupational exposure to toxic chemicals such as Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) from diesel engine exhaust implicates genotoxic risk. The objective of this study was to determine the DNA damage among KL Sentral depot workers exposed to TVOC by means of cytogenetic analysis. Data were obtained partially from disseminated questionnaires and buccal cells samples were collected from a total of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2015 · 7,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Participation of Oxidative Stress in Breast Cancer Cells Progression and Treatment ResistancePoliana Camila Marinello, Kaliana Larissa Machado, Rubens Cecchini, Alessandra Lourenço CecchiniThis article presents a general discussion about the participation of oxidative stress in relevant points related to breast cancer progression in vitro. All of the evidences presented here are based on published papers that used breast cancer cells with different phenotype characteristics in their research. We observed that oxidative stress could modulate by several manners the tumor progression and these … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 7,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRapid Real Time PCR Based Detection of Cell Count in Case of Urinary Tract InfectionPoulomi Nandy, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriMicrobial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods currently used in clinical microbiology laboratories require at least two to three days because they rely on the growth and isolation of micro-organisms. This long, but necessary, delay has enormous consequences on prophylactic usage of antimicrobial drugs. This study was an attempt to reduce this detection time span. Taq Man Real Time PCR … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2013 · 8,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNasal Administration of Quercetin Liposomes Improves Memory Impairment and Neurodegeneration in Animal Model of Alzheimer's DiseaseTerdthai Tong-un, Supaporn Muchimapura, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Wathita PhachonpaiProblem statement: At present, the development of protective strategy against Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is increasing its importance due to the high prevalence of AD, a limitation of therapeutic efficacy and its high impacts on economic and social aspects. The development of the preventive and therapeutic strategy to protect against the path physiology induced by free radicals in AD from antioxidant … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Fully Coupled Approach for Evaluation of Wellbore Stability in Hydrocarbon ReservoirsVera RoccaProblem statement: When a well is drilled in a hydrocarbon reservoir, the original thermodynamic conditions are altered, the natural stresses are redistributed and a stress concentration occurs around the hole. The alteration of the original equilibrium can lead to wellbore damage, sometimes to its complete collapse. Loss of time associated with stability problems is estimated to account for 12-15% of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Some Organic Pollutants Transport into the Shallow Groundwater and Surface Water of Jiaxing Landfill AreaSouleymane Keita, Zhonghua Tang, Shaogang Dong, Yuehua JiangProblem statement: Hangjiahu regions belong to the Yangtze River Delta region in Zhejiang Province in China. The vast majority of this region is flat, so surface and groundwater both have a low flow rate. With the rapid economic development of the area, a large number of industrial and domestic garbage are generated. These landfill or garbage are exposed and stacked. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Antioxidant Vitamins C and E Supplementation on its Plasma Levels and on Lipid Profile in Pulmonary Tuberculosis PatientsM. Madhavi, P. Samudram, A. Hemanth Kumar, Lalitha VictorProblem statement: Patients with active pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) are malnourished as indicated by reductions in lean mass, anthropometric indices and micronutrient status. Supplementation with vitamins may prove to be beneficial. Limited information is available on the supplementation of vitamin C and E in pulmonary TB patients. Hence, the present study was undertaken to address the question whether any benefit could … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,684 accessesView PDFCite
