Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKhaen: An Application of Isan Local Wisdom for Conservation Revitalization and Development of Raw Materials and Khaen Making for Value-Added CultureChampadaeng Sithisak, Bunsom Yodmalee, Khaentaphon SamdaengdejProblem statement: The electricity in recent time, the raw materials for making “Khaen” (Lao reed mouthorgan) were decreased. The Reed Mouthorgan manufacturing was a high wisdom heritance. The objective of this research was to study the following issues: (1) the history of Reed Mouthorgan musical instrument, raw material and Reed Mouthorgan manufacturing in Esan Region. (2) The state of problems … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,686 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Phytoplasma on Indian Fig (Opuntia ficus-indica Mill) in Mexico Central RegionRicardo Hernández-Pérez, Juan Carlos Noa-Carrazana, Ricardo Gaspar et al.Problem statement: The Indian fig (a species of prickly pear cactus), has been known as Nopal, comprises an approximate area of 100,000 ha, in plantations used for human consumption. "Pyramids" Indian fig area located in the northeastern State of Mexico has been an important Indianfig area in the country, with 15810 ha, where a phytoplasma has been consistently present in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,729 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of the Presence of Huanglongbing in Seeds and Movement of the Pathogen in Citrus reticulataHajivand Shokrollah, Thohirah Lee Abdullah, Kamaruzaman Sijam, Siti Nor Akmar AbdullahProblem statement: Huanglongbing (HLB) also known as citrus greening disease is a fastidious phloem-inhabiting bacterium in the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Using universal primers, the 16S ribosomal DNA sequence of three strains of the bacterium were obtained by PCR. However there is very little information on seed transmission and HLB pathogen movement to find a way for control or reduce the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,088 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis, Characterization and Saponification of Poly (AN)-Starch Composites and Properties of their HydrogelsA. Hashem, M. A. Afifi, E. A. El-Alfy, A. HebeishHydrogels based on saponified products of poly (acrylonitrile, AN)-starch composites were prepared, characterized and their water abosrbency properties examined. The term composite refered to the resultant products of polymerizatin of AN with starch in presence of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as initiator, that is the composite consists of poly(AN)-starch graft copolymer, homopoly(AN) , oxidized starch and unreacted starch. Thus AN … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,577 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Degrading Calcium Phosphate on the Remodelling and Mineralisation of Avascular Osseous Tissue in a Rat Calvaria ModelTulio Fernandez, Carlos H. Valencia, Yuann Li et al.Artificial bone graftingis the subject of intensive investigation for craniofacial reconstruction. Among the syntheticcandi date materials, those incorporating Calcium Phosphates (CaP) have gained popularity, due to their osteoinductive properties. Despite many quantitative studies on the degradation rates of CaP biomaterials in vitro, there is lack of quantitative studies in relation to bone remodelling kinetics in vivo. In this investigation, we … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,208 accessesView PDF Cite
