Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesProximate Analysis of Dragon Fruit (Hylecereus polyhizus)Ruzainah Ali Jaafar, Ahmad Ridhwan Bin Abdul Rahman, Nor Zaini Che Mahmod, R. VasudevanProblem statement: Dragon fruit (Hylecereus polyhizus) is well known for the rich nutrient contents and it is commercially available worldwide for improving many health problems. Several studies show the proximity value of red pitaya fruits but the nutrient composition of the stem has not been extensively studied. Approach: This study was carried out to measure the proximate analysis of moisture … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 14,057 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLack of Association of Glutathione S-transferase Gene Polymorphisms in Iranian Prostate Cancer SubjectsB. Sahar Ansari, R. Vasudevan, M. Mirinargesi et al.Problem statement: Glutathione S-transferase is super family genes that encode enzymes which involve in the detoxification of the cell and protects DNA from damage. Conflicting results was found in several studies in association with GSTT1 and GSTM1 gene polymorphisms and prostate cancer. In this study, we determined the association between the GSTT1 and GSTM1 gene polymorphism and prostate cancer in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,273 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAgrobacterium-mediated Genetic Transformation in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)A. Vasudevan, N. Selvaraj, A. Ganapathi, C.W. ChoiThe present study was undertaken to develop efficient transformation protocol for cucumber cv. Poinsett 76 using Agrobacterium strain EHA 105. Five-day-old mature cotyledon explants was used for transformation study. The infected explants were co-cultivated for 2 days in MS medium containing BA (1.0 mg Lˉ1). The selection of transformed shoots was carried out in MS medium fortified with BA (1.0 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,901 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,902 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModeling and Simulation of a Novel Switched Reluctance Motor Drive System with Power Factor ImprovementG. Venkatesan, R. Arumugam, M. Vasudevan et al.This study presents a novel Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drive system with power factor improvement. Recently, many of the converters with variable speed drives have no input power factor correction circuits. This results in harmonic pollution of the utility supply, which should be avoided. The effect of power factor variation in terms of harmonic content is also analyzed in this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,096 accessesView PDF Cite
