Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Advances in Point of Care Diagnostic Tools: A ReviewLaura Wessels, Haider RaadGlobally, there is a great need for portable, inexpensive diagnostic tools that can provide quick, accurate results using relatively small sample volumes. Point-Of-Care (POC) measurements of human saliva, sweat and/or blood capable of detecting glucose levels, foreign pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and many different viruses (HIV, Ebola, Influenza, etc.) that use microfluidics and optofluidics are close to commercial availability. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2016 · 8,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel Identification and Wall-Plug Efficiency Measurement of White LED ModulesAhmed Zurfi, Jing ZhangIn this study, an experimental method is developed to measure the Wall-Plug efficiency of white LED modules without using any apparatus or sensors to measure the intensity of light. The tested LED module consists of a white LED chip-on-board affixed on a heatsink. The proposed method is mainly based on thermal and electrical models of the LED module. Measurements of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2016 · 8,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA VISION-BASED TRAVELLED DISTANCE ESTIMATION ALGORITHM IN AN INDOOR ENVIRONMENT USING A MOBILE ROBOTMamadou Diop, Chot Hun Lim, Tien Sze Lim, Lee-Yeng OngAutonomous navigation for a mobile robot still remains as a challenging area to be explored. In an indoor environment, while GPS is unavailable and wheel encoder suffer from error accumulation due to wheel slips, vision-based travelled distance estimation can be considered as an alternative approach for more accurate measurements. This study presents a new algorithm to estimate travelled distance of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 8,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTUDY OF SOME HEAVY METALS AND TRACE ELEMENTSAL-Rajhi, M.A.This study provides an overview of the measurements of trace elements and heavy metals in table salt in Saudi Arabia. The aim of this study is to investigate the heavy metal concentration in different type of salt samples consumed in Riyadh Saudi Arabia and comparing the concentrations of such elements with the limits recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2014 · 7,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractREDUCING CALL BLOCKING PROBABILITY IN HYBRID MULTICAST WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXING NETWORKS USING WEIGHTED ROUTING AND WAVELENGTH ASSIGNMENT ALGORITHMD. V. Pradeep Sankar, K. MuneeswaranIn the proposed work, the focus is on increasing the available wavelength in the all-optical networks, for which the Routing and Wavelength Assignment plays a vital role. In the earlier reported work, the wavelengths were assigned to the links which covers a set of destinations but not all the intended destinations. However this proposed work, attempts were made to create … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Nov 2013 · 6,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Analysis on Same Filter Different Sources for Selection of Spectral Filters in Optical DemultiplexerMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Hadiguna, Latifah Sarah SupianThe cost effective demultiplexer based on POF is reported in this study. The demultiplexer is fabricated by combining optical splitter with the suitable filter for wavelength selection. Therefore this study we aims to evaluate the effectiveness of selected color filter film for demultiplexer construction where only signals with certain wavelengths are allowed to pass through the demultiplexer while the other … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 18 Jun 2013 · 6,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasurement of Fibrinogen Concentration in the Plasma of Dogs: A Comparison Between Heat Precipitation and Modified Thrombin Clotting Time MethodLabrini V. Athanasiou, Theodoros A. Petanides, Manolis K. Chatzis, Manolis N. SaridomichelakisFibrinogen is a glycoprotein that plays a key role in blood clotting and is also a non-specific indicator of inflammation. The most widely used techniques for measuring plasma fibrinogen concentration include heat precipitation (Millar’s technique) and modified thrombin clotting time (Clauss method). Both techniques have been automated in a haematology analyzer (QBC-Vet Autoreader®, IDEXX; Millar’s technique) and in a newly … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 May 2013 · 7,449 accessesView PDFCite
