Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Malicious Nodes under Different Route Refresh Intervals in Ad Hoc NetworkP. Suganthi, A. TamilarasiProblem statement: Ad hoc networks are formed dynamically by group of mobile devices co operating with each other. Intermediate nodes between source and destination act as routers so that source node can communicate with the destination node even if it is out radio range and thus eliminating the necessity of infrastructure. Co operation of nodes is a very important feature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,305 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlexural Behaviors of Damaged Full-Scale Highway Bridge Girder Strengthened by External Post TensionSayan Sirimontree, Jaruek TeerawongProblem statement: Prestressed Concrete (PC) I section girder with Reinforced Concrete (RC) topping slab has been widely applied to long span bridge girders for several years. A bridge girder is subjected to severe conditions caused by an aggressive environment and overloading. A crack can be initiated and propagate when the tensile stress exceeds the tensile strength of concrete due to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,675 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEndothelial Dysfunction Induced by Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Fibrinolytic ActivityHussein F. SakrProblem statement: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the world's largest systemic and metabolic disease. Endothelin (ET) was first described as a peptidergic endothelium-derived constricting factor. Endothelin-1 is one of the endothelial factors that is overexpressed in cases of endothelial dysfunction. The fibrinolytic system is present in plasma with the degradation of fibrin polymers in blood clots. It is a proteolytic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgricultural Waste Management Extension Education (AWMEE) The Ultimate Need for Intellectual ProductivityIraj Malek MohammadiExtension education is significant range of fields like Agriculture, Natural Resources, Environmental and Bio Diversity Conservation, Rural Development, Home Management Skill Development, Disaster Management, Waste Management, Value Adding Management. Among them, waste management extension is highly significant because of the millions of tons of annual waste in vegetal, animal, environmental and natural resources products as well as millions of hectors … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,407 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Irradiation Synthesis and Influence the Optical and Thermal Properties of Cadmium Sulfide (CdS)/Poly (Vinyl Pyrolidone) NanocompositesShawkat Salameh Gasaymeh, Shahidan Radiman, Lee Yook Heng, Elias SaionProblem statement: Gamma irradiation has been successfully used to prepare a spherical cadmium sulfide CdS/Poly Vinylpyrolidone (PVP) quantum dots nanoparticles with enhancement of their optical band gap energy and thermal properties at room temperature and under ambient pressure. Sodium thiosulfate was used as a sulfur source in an aqueous solution. The formation of lower band gap energy of CdS/PVP nanoparticles … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,465 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α Signaling Pathway and its Relation to Cancer and ImmunologyBruno R.B. Pires, Andre L. Mencalha, Gerson M. Ferreira et al.Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that is present in all metazoans from early embryonic development throughout adult life. It plays a major roles in the different stress responses that are triggered by low Oxygen (O2) levels and its expression is associated with cell survival. HIF-1 is a heterodimer protein that comprises the subunits HIF-1α and HIF-1β. The … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 8,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPesticide-Tolerant Bacteria Isolated from Agricultural Canals in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South TexasSandra Puente Aguirre, Kristine L. LoweAtrazine and oxamyl are commonly-used pesticides in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Problem statement: Pesticides may become environmental contaminants due to overuse, runoff and other mechanisms and may impact non-target organisms and ecosystems. Pesticides may be degraded by indigenous microorganisms or by abiotic means. In this study, waterborne bacteria from agricultural canals were examined to assess potential … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMechanism of Garden Aquatic Plants in the Remediation of Heavy Metal-Contaminated SoilChen Chen, Guangwu LiuHeavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury are resistant to microbial degradation in soil and persist for extended periods. They can bioaccumulate through the food chain, ultimately impacting human health. This study demonstrates that a combined restoration approach involving soil enhancement and garden aquatic plants, specifically through the application of ferrous sulfate, results in increased dry weight and plant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Apr 2026 · 1,505 accessesView PDFCite
