Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStatic and Dynamic Location of Variable Impedance Devices for Stability StudiesN. Magaji, M. W. Mustafa, Ado Dan-Isa, A. U. LawanThis study used the concept of model controllability and observability in product form called residue factor to find the best location of Thyristor-Controlled based series and shunt devices called variable impedance devices. The success of this controller depends on its best possible location in busbar or line of power system network. The method is based on the relationship between the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 31 May 2013 · 6,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDetection of Cancer Biomarkers with NanotechnologyLei Zhang, Dan Lv, Weijun Su et al.Early detection of cancer biomarkers with high precision is critically important for cancer therapy. A variety of sensors based on different nanostructured materials have attracted intensive research interest due to their potential for highly sensitive and selective detection of cancer biomarkers. This review covers the use of a variety of nanostructured materials, including carbon nanotubes, silicon nanowires, gold nanoparticles and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMeasures of Explained Variation and the Base-Rate Problem for Logistic RegressionDinesh Sharma, Dan McGee, B.M. Golam KibriaProblem statement: Logistic regression, perhaps the most frequently used regression model after the General Linear Model (GLM), is extensively used in the field of medical science to analyze prognostic factors in studies of dichotomous outcomes. Unlike the GLM, many different proposals have been made to measure the explained variation in logistic regression analysis. One of the limitations of these measures … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2012 · 8,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Sequence Based Validation of Gene Expression Microarray DataGerhard G. Thallinger, Eva Obermayr, Pornpimol Charoentong et al.Problem statement: Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is often used to validate microarray data. Previous studies show different levels of correlation, without further investigation of influencing factors. Approach: We compared expression levels of 381 genes obtained from microarray hybridizations and from TaqMan based RT-qPCR assays. Correlation of expression levels was determined by comparing: (i) single genes across samples, (ii) all … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2012 · 13,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEfficient Anaerobic Fermentation of Simple Sugars by Yeast Fuels Resistance Candida spp. Infections to Eradication by DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Human systemic Candida infections had proved difficult to eradicate by the medical health care system. Some practitioners and scholars see the problem as being due to drug resistance. For example an author wrote that ‘secondary drug resistance is clearly being encountered in one setting, oropharyngeal candidiasis in patients with advanced Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection usually … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSlow Fungal Hydrolysis of Complex Sugar is Responsible for the Use of Sugar as Vehicle for Antifungal DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Aspergillus niger strain (UUF 9202) significantly reduced the dormancy period and boosted aggregate germination time in seeds of Tetrapleura tetraptera by 42% in 32 days and produced a net reduction in mean germination time of the seeds to 12 days. A structure-fungitoxicity relationship study of a series of isoflavonoids against Aspergillus niger and Cladosporium cucumerinum showed that a … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModeling the Distribution of Rainfall Intensity using Hourly DataSalisu Dan'azumi, Supiah Shamsudin, Azmi ArisProblem statement: Design of storm water best management practices to control runoff and water pollution can be achieved if a prior knowledge of the distribution of rainfall characteristics is known. Rainfall intensity, particularly in tropical climate, plays a major role in the design of runoff conveyance and erosion control systems. This study is aimed to explore the statistical distribution of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLow-doping Effects of Nanostructure ZnO: Sn tin films annealed at different temperature in Nitrogen ambient to be applied as an Anti-reflecting coating (ARC)H. Abdullah, M.N. Norazia, S. Shaari et al.Problem statement: The focus of this research is to discover the significant influences of substituting low concentration Sn at Zn-site as an Anti-Reflecting Coating (ARC) for Zn1-xSnxO compound. The effects of tin dopants on the structural and morphology properties of ZnO thin films prepared using the sol-gel method were investigated. Approach: The effects of annealing temperature on the deposited films … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRelationship between Nickel Exposure and the Level of Carcinoembryonic Antigen among Welders in an Automotive PlantChiang Lee Juan, Shamsul Bahri Mohd Tamrin, Syazwan Aizat Ismail et al.Background: Study on the effect of nickel exposure in the occupational setting and its association to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) had been studied before. Questions were raised whether the result from previous study would also show the same pattern of the urinary nickel concentration in this study. Objective: A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the association between urine nickel concentration … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,639 accessesView PDFCite
