Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Stress Effects of Kaempferia parviflora in Immobilization Subjected RatsJintanaporn Wattanathorn, Terdthai Tong-un, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.It is well known that intense and prolonged stress can produce hippocampal neuronal damage and cognitive impairments, few studies have investigated possible ways to prevent its deleterious effects. Here, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of a Thai traditional herb, Kaempferia Parviflora (KP) extract, commonly known as Kra-Chai-Dum, on learning and memory loss and the induction of neurodegeneration in the hippocampus … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 14 May 2013 · 8,677 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetroleum Hydrocarbon Pollution of Mangrove Swamps: The Promises of Remediation by Enhanced Natural AttenuationF. A. Orji, A. A. Ibiene, O. C. UgboguProblem statement: The Remediation by Enhanced Natural Attenuation (RENA) is currently being used as a cleanup technology in polluted environments in the Niger Delta and other parts of the globe. The effectiveness of RENA as a remediation technology in the most recent time has been challenged by few authorities. The deleterious effects of pollutants on the environment have led to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 May 2012 · 8,225 accessesView PDF Cite

Ayo et al.Problem statement: Although the increase incidence of cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes mellitus has been attributed to changing life style, the role of environmental contaminants is currently being given considerable attention. Pesticides, including Organophosphate (OP) insecticides are one of the most pervasive environmental contaminants that are deliberately released into the environment. Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a widely used OP insecticide has been … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 21 Feb 2012 · 7,576 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Single Core Hardware Module of a Data Compression Scheme Using Prediction by Partial Matching TechniqueJubayer Jalil, Md. Mamun, Mohd. Marufuzzaman, Hafizah HusainProblem statement: Compression is useful because it helps reduce the consumption of expensive resources, such as hard disk space or transmission bandwidth. For effective data compression, the compression algorithm must be able to predict future data accurately in order to build a good probabilistic model for compression. Lossless compression is essential in cases where it is important that the original … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Oct 2011 · 7,255 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Iron Deficiency among Human Immunodeficiency Virus Sero PositivesM. A. Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, K. Aarthy, J. M. MaryProblem statement: Iron is an important dietary mineral and involves in various body functions. In humans, iron is an essential component of proteins involved in oxygen transport. It is also essential for the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Iron and its binding protein have immune regulatory properties and shifting of immune regulatory balances by iron excess or deficiency may … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,020 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Age and Postmortem Time on Some White-Tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus texanus) Epididymal Sperm Characteristics and Response of CryopreservationJ. Ake-Lopez, E. Cavazos-Arizpe, J. G. Magana-Monforte et al.Problem statement: Males rather than females of the White-Tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus texanus) are more susceptible to hunting because their physical characteristics, therefore their elimination can increase a genetic degradation and a lower productivity because of the effect of gender. Thus, the aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of age and postmortem time of White-Tailed deer … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,623 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Municipal Solid Waste Compost on the Growth and Production of Vegetable CropsA.E. Ghaly, F.N. AlkoaikProblem statement: MSW has traditionally been dealt with thorough the practice of land filling and incineration. However, deleterious environmental impacts have promoted municipalities in Canada to recycle non-putrescible wastes and compost the putrescible ones. This study aimed at evaluating the effect of MSW compost on the growth and production of three vegetable crops (potatoes, corn and squash). Approach: Each crop … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,798 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWellbore Surveying While Drilling Based on Kalman FilteringMahmoud ElGizawy, Aboelmagd Noureldin, Jacques Georgy et al.Problem statement: Oil and gas are global fuels obtained primarily from drilling wells in underground terrestrial reservoirs. Vertical drilling is preferred because of its simplicity and therefore low cost, but subsurface targets can often be procured only by directing the wellbore along predefined non-vertical trajectories. For instance, directional drilling must be employed to reach locations inaccessible to the drilling rig, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,577 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Camel's Milk on Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Swiss Albino MiceMohamed E.M. AfifiProblem statement: Nephrotoxicity is a major complication and a dose limiting factor for cisplatin therapy. Cisplatin mediated nephrotoxicity is remarkably documented by reactive oxygen species. Camel's milk has good nutritive value, antigenotoxic and anticytotoxic effects. The aim of the present study was to assess the protective effect of camel's milk against Cisplatin-induced renal oxidative stress in mice. Approach: Forty mal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,989 accessesView PDF Cite
