Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption and Descaling of Cellucotton and Chitosan-Modified Bentonite for Produced WaterTao Yu, Ying Wang, Chengtun Qu et al.The compatibility of non-identical layers within the water present in the produced oil is poor and ion reactions in the oil mixed with water result in scale formation, thereby having a significant impact on oilfield safety production. In this study, methods for the descaling of produced water from different blocks were studied according to the quality characteristics of the produced … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 18 May 2020 · 6,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Time Required to Detect Induced Sow Lameness Using an Embedded Microcomputer-Based Force Plate SystemBrady McNeil, Julia Calderón Díaz, Caitlyn Bruns et al.Lameness in swine breeding herds is a common cause of compromised animal well-being and economic loss to pig producers. Current lameness assessment methods are subjective and require intensive training. It has been shown that embedded microcomputer-based force plate systems can detect lameness by measuring weight distributions in livestock. The objective of this study was to determine the minimum time required … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 May 2018 · 7,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Psychometric Test of the ‘Empathy and Understanding in the Dementia Index’ for Health ProfessionalsPaul Slater, Kevin Moore, Florence Sharkey, Felicity HassonEmpathy among health professionals requires the application of empathic understanding in practice and in the way, care is provided. To date, few tools have been specifically designed to measure empathy concerning dementia training. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a psychometrically valid and reliable tool to measure empathy among health professionals. A mixed methods sequential exploratory design was adopted guided … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2022 · 6,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnderstanding the Epidemiology of Trypanosoma Evansi Infection in Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) from Urban Areas of ColombiaJeiczon Elim Jaimes-Dueñez, Ángela Patricia Jiménez-Leaño, Daniela Montenegro-Ayala, Maria Esteban-MendozaTrypanosomaevansi is a protozoan parasite that is the causative agent of the animal disease known as "surra", which affects a wide variety of wild and domestic mammals including humans. This study aimed to evaluate the molecular point prevalence and clinic-epidemiological traits of T. evansi infection in dogs from municipalities of the Metropolitan Area of Bucaramanga (MAB), Santander, Colombia. From 2019 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2022 · 5,944 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChronological Advancement in Image Processing from Lime Stone Mofits to Superpixel ClassificationEr. Sumit Kaur, R. K. BansalImage processing is widely used method for representation and extraction of information. To get the information from the areas and objects which are not possible to be physically contact directly remote sensing image processing is used. While extracting the information from the remote sensed images the major issues that affect the accuracy of the classification is the presence of mixed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 19 Jan 2016 · 6,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed Species Grazing of Cattle and Goats on Gastrointestinal Infections of Haemonchus ContortusRenita Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Lisa Gray, Yemane GhebreiyessusAt the present time, the meat of goat is the fastest growing class of livestock in the U.S.A. Due to the sub-tropical climate in the South Eastern region of the US, internal parasites pose a major constraint to the industry. The blood-feeding nematode, Haemonchus contortus results in production losses and even death in untreated animals. The control of H. contortus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed-Polarity Azeotropic Solvents for Efficient Extraction of Lipids from Nannochloropsis MicroalgaeRobert D. Long, Elseddik AbdelkaderProblem statement: The extraction of lipids from microalgae for biofuel production is a significant problem due to the intractability of their cell wall. The aim of this study of lipid extraction from Nannochloropsis microalgae was to examine the relative efficiencies of some commonly used solvent systems and test the use of co-boiling solvents in Soxhlet extraction as an improved method. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Aug 2011 · 9,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability Equivalence Factors of a System with 2 Non-identical Mixed Lifetimes and Delayed TimeAbdelfattah Mustafa, Adel A. El-FaheemProblem statement: In reliability theory and operations research, there are many methods and techniques to improve the performance of a system. The aim of this study is to generalize reliability equivalence technique to apply it to a mixed failure lifetimes system f1 (t), f2 (t) with delayed time. Approach: We shall improve the system by using some reliability techniques: (i) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,550 accessesView PDFCite
