Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Nutritional Value of Instant Sea Cucumber Processed by the New Processing ApproachShujing Meng, Huiyan Zhang, Jianfeng Sun, Qian LiuIn this study, the micrograph, the composition of amino acids and fatty acids were analyzed contrastively among the fresh, instant and commercial sea cucumber. The micrographs of fresh, instant and commercial sea cucumbers indicated that the processing technology of instant sea cucumber could effectively inhibit the damage of sea cucumber collagen structure and better maintain its original structure. Depending on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2017 · 9,894 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Charge Pump Topologies for Micro Energy Harvesting SystemsMichelle Lim Sern Mi, Md. Shabiul Islam, Jahariah Sampe, Sawal Hamid Md. AliThis paper reviews CMOS based charge pump topologies used within autonomous embedded micro-systems. These charge pump structures have evolved from its simplistic diode-tied, single-branches with major threshold drops to exponential type, dual-branches with sophisticated gate and substrate control for lower voltage operation. Published charge pumps are grouped based on architecture, operation principles and pump optimization techniques with their pros and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 26 May 2016 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis on Milk Fatty Acid Profile in Dairy CattleC. Mitchell, O. ALZahal, M.M. Or-Rashid et al.The objective of this experiment was to examine the effect of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles with emphasis on odd-chain and branched-chain FA. Sixteen multiparous Holstein dairy cows (618±35 kg of body weight, 221±32 days in milk) were used in a randomized complete-block design. During week 1, all cows received a high-forage diet (90% chopped … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractYear-Round Forage Yield Stability through a System Combining Triple-Maize Crops with Winter Barley in Kyushu, JapanYingkui Yang, Yasuyuki Ishii, Sachiko IdotaReduction of feeding cost for the beef and dairy cow industry is an urgent matter requiring the intensification of summer and winter forage cropping in Kyushu, Japan. Forage maize is a prominent high-yield summer crop in the region, where it used to be sown from late March to early August. Due to global warming, maize cropping in the common hot … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2016 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDo Cows Under Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) Attempt to Self-Medicate?Erin Hendriksen, Ousama AlZahal, Tom C. Wright et al.The objective of this study was to examine feed-sorting behavior of dairy cows in response to a grain challenge that leads to Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA). Sixteen multiparous, rumen-cannulated lactating Holstein cows were used. During the first 49 days of the experiment, all cows received a High-Forage diet (HF; 77:23, F: C; NFC=35). Cows were then transitioned to a High-Grain … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 2 Sep 2015 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Forkhead Box P2 Gene on Language Functional Articulation DisorderLi-Yu ZhouThis study mainly concentrates on the discussion of the relationship between FOXP2 gene and language functional articulation disorder. The children of functional articulation disorder are selected, the normal healthy subjects in the corresponding period served as the controls, by contrasting with five polymorphic sites in FOXP2 gene to have a correlative study on human genes and language acquisition with the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Jan 2014 · 7,207 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHORIA EHANCEMENT OF NUCLEAR REACTOR SAFETYBarbara Szpunar, Jerzy SzpunarThe recent nuclear accident in Fukushima demonstrates that a nuclear mishap should be viewed using interdisciplinary tools. For example, the urania fuel melts not only because of enhanced neutron flux but also because its thermal conductivity degrades when it oxidizes. Here we present the application of first principles calculations to evaluate the structural, mechanical and thermal properties of traditional urania … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlan, do, Study, Act Cycles, as an Alternate to Action Research for Clinically Based InquiryBernadette Ivy Eather, Mary Elizabeth Chiarella, Judith DonoghueAction Research has long been the method of choice when undertaking research in clinical practice improvement. It is a method aimed at engendering ownership by the participants in order to sustain practice change. Plan, Do, Study, Act cycles (PDSA) also provide a cyclical approach to clinical practice improvement research and focus the clinical team around a specific problem. Through focus … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2013 · 18,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Qualitative Analysis of Independent Component Analysis Based Algorithms for the Removal of Artifacts from Electroencephalography SignalsBalaiah Paulchamy, Ilavennila, Jayabalan JayaProblem statement: Independent Component Analysis (ICA) based algorithms applied in the context to remove the artifacts from the EEG signals are evaluated with appropriate metrics and it compares and contrasts the performance of the different methods for such applications. The primary goal is to gain some insight into relative performance of the various methods. Approach: CA is a statistical and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2012 · 6,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntagonistic Effects of Fertilizer on Photochemical Efficiency of Hibiscus cannabinus L. (Kenaf) Planted on Beach Ridges Interspersed with Swales SoilMohd-Hazimy Yusoff, Hazandy Abdul-Hamid, Arifin Abdu et al.Problem statement: Hibiscus cannabinus L. or Kenaf is a highly productive, warmseasonal C3 annual crop and is one of the potential candidates to substitute kenaf fiber as raw product for pulp and paper production. It survives well on less fertile soils including those of Beach Ridges Interspersed with Swales (BRIS) soil. Approach: The objective of this study was to determine … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 19 Sep 2011 · 8,512 accessesView PDFCite
