Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrical and Magnetoresistive studies Nd doped on La-Ba-Mn-O3 Manganites for Low-field Sensor applicationH. Abdullah, S. A. HalimProblem Statement: Electrical and magnetoresistive properties of the Nd doped (La1-xNdx)0.5Ba0.5MnO3 type samples with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0 had been prepared using the solid state reaction. These materials are extensively studied by the substitution of rare-earth compound is to understand the nature of transport phenomena in each system. Approach: The samples were calcined at 900°C for 12 h, pelletized … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Quick Method for Metarhizium anisopliae Isolation from Cultural SoilsM. A. Tajick Ghanbary, A. Asgharzadeh, A. R. Hadizadeh, M. Mohammadi SharifProblem statement: Fungi are one of the most active members in biological community of cultural soils. Many saprophyte and facultative parasitic fungi live in soil. Metarhizium anisopliae, one of the most famous soil inhabitant entomopathogens has a virulence potential on plant and animal pests. Approach: Introducing a new method for its isolation from soil was an applied method to find … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrganic Matter, Carbon and Humic Acids in Rehabilitated and Secondary Forest SoilsLee Yit Leng, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem Statement: Tropical rainforests cover about 19.37 million ha (60%) of Malaysia’s total area and about 8.71 million ha can be found in Sarawak, Malaysia. Excessive logging, mining and shifting cultivation contribute to deforestation in Sarawak. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Quantify soil Organic Matter (SOM), Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) and Humic Acids (HA) in rehabilitated and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation Planning for Sustainable Use of Land Resources: Case study in DiamouDiallo Yacouba, Hu Guangdao, Abdurazak Hussien AbdulahiIn this study, we presented the simulation planning scheme to project land and land resources use changes at a local scale for Diamou (MALI). Problem statement: All the land cover types were under the influence of human and livestock population. Diamou has undergone changes in land-cover over the last decades. The shifting cultivation system practiced was probably the main reason … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review on Physicochemical and Thermorheological Properties of Sago StarchA. Mohamed, B. Jamilah, K.A. Abbas et al.This study was a part of a research project aiming to investigate the texture characteristics of protein - starch interaction in fish based product keropok lekor. Accordingly, the current review study focused on some physicochemical (molecular weight, viscosity, chemical composition and swelling power) and thermorheological (gelatinization, retrogradation and viscoelsticity) characteristics of sago starch alone and in mixtures with other ingredients … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 9,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Water Resources Management Improving Langat Basin Ecosystem HealthMazlin B. Mokhtar, Mohammad Fawzi Al Ajlouni, Rahma ElfitrieThe ecosystem provides us with all the goods and services that form the base of our economic, social cultural and spiritual life. Good scientific information will be required for managing the environment by using the Ecosystem approach. The groundwater is considered as a possible supplementary of alternative water source, and some factories already started shifting their water source from surface … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,058 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part VI: in vitro Vasorelaxant EffectN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThe aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro vasorelaxanteffect of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) at a dose of 10 mg mL-1. Aortic rings isolated from normal wistar rats were used. The addition of CSAE during the plateau phase of contraction, induced by noradrenaline and KCl, produced a rapid relaxation. Incubation of aortic ring with CSAE during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Air Temperatures Using Time Series Models and Neural-based AlgorithmsMahmoud M. Smadi, Farouq S. MjalliRecently, neural network models have been popular and found useful for forecasting a wide variety of time series data in many disciplines. This is due to their favorable modeling properties of simplicity, fault and noise tolerance and their capability to adapt to process changes. Nevertheless, applications in climatology have been less widespread than other disciplines such as economics. In this … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,275 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Detection using Geometric Invariant MomentMohamed Rizon, Haniza Yazid, Puteh Saad et al.Geometric moment invariant produces a set of feature vectors that are invariant under shifting, scaling and rotation. The technique is widely used to extract the global features for pattern recognition due to its discrimination power and robustness. In this paper, moment invariant is used to identify the object from the captured image using the first invariant (Ø1). The recognition rate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Oct 2006 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
