Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMass Transfer Limitation in Different Anode Electrode Surface Areas on the Performance of Dual Chamber Microbial Fuel CellBabak Salamatinia, Ali Ghannadzadeh, Mostafa Ghasemi et al.In this study, the effect of different electrode surface areas on the performance of dual chamber Microbial Fuel Cells (MFC) was investigated. Four different electrodes with 12, 16, 20 and 24 cm2 surface areas were tested in an MFC system. The 20 cm2 electrode generated an output power of 76.5 mW/m2 was found to be the highest among all the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 8,529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDielectric Properties of Collagen on Plasma Modified Polyvinylidene FluorideR. M. Dahan, S. I. Ismail, Famiza Latif et al.Problem statement: The attachment of biopolymers such as collagen on inert polymeric template created great challenge due to hydrophobic nature of polymeric material. The modification of PVDF for improved adhesion and introduction of specific functionalities have been widely recognized in various industrial applications. Typical methods for modifying polymer surface such as chemical etching and UV irradiation are not favorable as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,988 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCell Surface Receptor Theory of Disease Infectivity; Body's Defence and Normal Body Functioning in Living ThingsUtoh-Nedosa, Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: A study of the pattern of Candida spp. infection of the human body and the mode and pattern of reaction of the human body to this infection showed that disease infectivity and self healing by plants followed the same procedures and patterns. Approach: A comparism of these procedures and patterns of natural self- healing of disease infection by … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransient Response of a Novel Displacement Transducer for Magnetic Levitation SystemMrunal Deshpande, Badrilal MathurProblem statement: In magnetic levitation system, position sensors are used to obtain a voltage proportional to the position of the suspended object. This is an essential feedback signal for stabilizing the system. These sensors make the system clumsy and prone to failures. To eliminate any physical attachment on the levitated object for the purpose of measuring its displacement, a novel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2011 · 7,240 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCompensating Companion Animal Owners for Veterinary Malpractice Through an Alternative Dispute Resolution MechanismTerence J. Centner, Nikita SmeshkoProblem statement: Many people own pets for companionship and become attached to their animals. Given this attachment, some owners contract for veterinary services to extend the lives of their pets and may spend more money for veterinary care than their animals are worth. If their pet dies due to veterinary malpractice, they only receive a nominal sum for damages. Approach: … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 16 Sep 2011 · 8,120 accessesView PDFCite
