Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVegetation Assessment of Peat Swamp Forest Using Remote SensingSeca Gandaseca, John Sabang, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Peat covers 1.6 million ha (13%) of the 12.4 million ha land area of Sarawak and some of peat swamp forests have been logged. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of logging operation on peat swamp forest in this area. Approach: The study used a remote sensing technique to assess vegetation cover in a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,136 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Tillage Methods on Soil Fragmentation in Loamy-Clay SoilsYousef Abbaspour-Gilandeh, Vali Rasooli Sharabiani, Ahmad KhalilianProblem statement: Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in tillage in order to create a favorable soil environment for crop growth. Soil fragmentation is defined as the process of breakdown and crumbling of soil aggregates. Currently, there is no published research data on optimum tillage operations for seedbed preparation in loamy-clay soils of western Caspian Sea region of Iran. Approach: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Study of Phylogenetic Relationship of Rice Field Chironomidae (Diptera) Inferred From DNA Sequences of Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit ISalman A. Al-Shami, M.N. Siti Azizah, Che Salmah Md Rawi, Abu Hassan AhmadProblem statement: Chironomidae have been recorded in rice fields throughout the world including in many countries such as India, Australia and the USA. Although some studies provide the key to genera level and note the difficulty of identifying the larvae to species level. Chironomid researches have been hindered because of difficulties in specimen preparation, identification, morphology and literature. Systematics, phylogenetics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Gold Nanoparticles by TryptophaneAzim Akbarzadeh, Davood Zare, Ali Farhangi et al.Problem statement: Preparation and synthesis of gold nanoparticles with small size and suitable stability is very important and applicable particularly in medicine. In this study, we have prepared gold nanoparticles by chemical reduction method employing L-Tryptophane as a reducing agent for ionic gold. Approach: The gold nanoparticles are the most employed amongst the different metallic nanoparticles in the fields of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 10,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Studies of the Determination of Divalent Cadmium, Lead and Copper in the Boiling Medicinal Herbs by Stripping Voltammetry and by Atomic Absorption SpectrometryAhmed Hassan, Jamal A. MayoufCadmium, lead and copper were determined in ten Libyian boiling medicinal herbs samples by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry as well as by atomic absorption spectrometry. Voltammetric method was done at Hanging Mercury Dropping Electrode (HMDE) in Briton-Robinson buffer solution of pH ~2.1 at 25± 0.1°C. The sample preparation was carried out by boiling 2.0g of a finely pulverized plant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mini Review: Cholera Outbreak via ShellfishR. Suzita, A. S. Abdulamir, Fatimah Abu Bakar, R. SonProblem statement: Food borne illness occurs all over the world. Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera which is spread by contaminated food, water or direct fecal contact with food handlers. There are also examples of sporadic outbreaks of illness attributed to raw products eaten unprocessed. Consequently, there was a widespread concern that food in international trade carries pathogenic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Partial Orientation in [100] Direction on the Magnetic Properties of Co-Ferrite Prepared from Nano ParticlesH. M. El-SayedChemical co-precipitation method was used for the preparation of Co-ferrite nano particles. The particle size was about 18 nm. A magnetic anisotropy of Co-ferrite could be increased by applying an external magnetic field during the pressing of the nano particles before the final sintering. This anisotropy enhanced the squareness and the coercivity of investigated samples. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Effusivity Measurement of Virgin Coconut Oil-Methanol Mixtures using Photoacoustic TechniqueFiras Kamel Mohamad Al-asfoor, W. Mahmood Mat Yunus, Azmi Zakaria et al.Thermal effusivity of virgin coconut oil-methanol mixtures were measured using open photoacoustic cell technique.
