Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Cadmium on Worker Ovary Morphology of Bombus morio (Hymenoptera: Bombini)Fábio Camargo Abdalla, Marina Pedrosa, Caio Eduardo da Costa Domingues, Paulo José BalsamoBees are valuable bioindicators, providing information regarding environmental conditions through different kinds of analyses. Therefore, the effect of cadmium on the morphology of ovaries of Bombus morio workers was used to study a concentration considered environmentally safe (1 ppb) in Brazil. Workers of the same estimated age exposed for 48 h to 1 ppb cadmium showed extensive morphological changes in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2018 · 9,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Ultra Violet Radiation on Polyethylene Packaged Water Exposed at Varying Conditions: Are we Drinking Micro-Plastics?James Matthew Anayo, Victor Eshu Okpashi, Ikechukwu N.E. OnwurahThe public is worried about how their health is impacted by microplastics in sachet water. This awareness has repercussion for water producing factories and public health organization in managing health hazard associated with microplastic ingestion. Many countries in Africa, with concern to Nigeria, the act of packaging water in polyethylene materials by water producing factories has become accustomed. These packaged … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2018 · 9,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Different Environments on Reinforcement Concrete CorrosionMohammed Thalji Awwad, Omar Asad AhmadThis research focuses on various forms of steel bar corrosion located in different environments and the factors affecting the corrosion process, both the external (surrounding environment around concrete elements) and the internal environment (concrete itself), as well as on the investigations and tests for this type of damage, in order to develop measurements and recommendations that will reduce harmful investment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 15 Sep 2017 · 7,805 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOne-Dimensional Simulation of Diffusion and Advection Effects in Enzymatic Hydrolysis of CelluloseNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangEnzymatic hydrolysis process to transform lignocellulosic cellulose into sugar in a bioreactor tank involves different controlling factors such as advection, diffusion and fragmentation of cellulose chains. Although it has been observed experimentally that enzymatic hydrolysis is strongly influenced by the environmental effects in a tank, these effects have not been adequately quantified. In this study, a current kinetic model for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 7 · 13 Jul 2016 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPaving the Way for Warehouse Centralization in Healthcare: A Preliminary Assessment ApproachAnna Corinna Cagliano, Sabrina Grimaldi, Carlo RafeleCentralized logistics management is currently one interesting option for healthcare systems facing an increasing need to improve responsiveness and service quality while reducing costs. This work focuses on one aspect of centralized logistics, namely warehouse centralization and proposes a preliminary approach to assess material management in healthcare institutions as a first step towards decisions about the implementation of such a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 May 2016 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Need of Source Address for Route-Error Delivery in 6LoWPANShafique Ahmad ChaudhryLow-power Wireless Personal Area Networks (LoWPANs) comprise devices that conform to the IEEE standard 802.15.4. These networks need to be connected with other wireless and wired networks in order to maximize the utilization of information and other resources which are mainly associated with the Internet Protocol (IP)-based networks. The transmission of IPv6 over Low Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPANs), … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 15 Nov 2015 · 6,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign a New Bidirectional Transmission Protocol to Improve the Performance of MAC Layer Based on Very High Speed WLANsAli Ahmad Milad, Zul Azri Bin Muhamad Noh, Abdul Samad Shibghatullah et al.This paper presents a new bidirectional transmission protocol with single data frame to computing the performance of MAC layer based on IEEE 802.11n. As high as 600 Mbps of physical data rate is achieved in IEEE 802.11n where high data rate the current MAC layer leads to high performance overhead and low performance of throughput and designing the MAC layer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 23 Jun 2015 · 6,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences for the Role of Melatonin as a Protective Additive During Buffalo Semen FreezingMohamed El-Raey, M. R. Badr, Z. M. Rawash, G. M. DarwishTill now, the exact role of melatonin in male infertility hasn’t been fully discovered. Moreover, the intracellular signaling pathways activated by melatonin in buffalo spermatozoa especially on the level of cryopreservation process haven’t been reported. The current study aimed simply to clarify the precise role of this hormone during buffalo semen cryopreservation. Semen samples were obtained randomly from 6 fertile … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,112 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVE FIRMS: BUDGETARY ADJUSTMENTS AND ANALYSIS OF CREDIT ACCESS APPLYING SCORING SYSTEMSGiuseppe Bonazzi, Mattia IottiCooperatives are one of the most important types of companies in the agricultural sector. Cooperatives allow overcoming the limitations of the fragmentation of agricultural property, increasing the level of production of small-sized farms and selling the product so that it reaches a sufficient critical mass. Moreover, cooperatives are often characterized by undercapitalization and even difficult credit access because banks conduct … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 5 May 2014 · 6,916 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHROUGHPUT ANALYSIS OF AGGREGATION WITH FRAGMENT RETRANSMISSION PLUS QUALITY OF SERVICE SCHEMETeuku Yuliar Arif, Riri Fitri SariAggregation with Fragment Retransmission (AFR) is a scheme designed for frame transmission to increase efficiency at the MAC layer throughput. AFR provides a higher throughput compare to Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) scheme. However AFR scheme did not has QoS service function when compared to DCF scheme. DCF scheme already has contention-based QoS service using Enhanced Distributed Coordination Function (EDCA) scheme. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 7,319 accessesView PDFCite
