Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Multi-Drug and Metal Resistant Aeromonas Species from Diverse SourcesRamasamy Amsaveni, Muthusamy Sureshkumar, Joseph Reshma Mary et al.The abuse of antibiotics in the modern era, lead the microorganisms to develop resistance. Antibiotic resistance becomes the part of natural selection in bacteria which allows them to survive in different environments. Bacteria like Aeromonas are able to adapt to changes in the environment such as an increase in antibiotic concentration, which often results in the development of mutations allowing … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2015 · 7,575 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Arabic Text Classification Using Semantic Relations of Arabic WordNetSuhad A. Yousif, Venus W. Samawi, Islam Elkabani, Rached ZantoutArabic text classification methods have emerged as a natural result of the existence of a massive amount of varied textual information (written in Arabic language) on the web. In most text classification processes, feature selection is crucial task since it highly affects the classification accuracy. Generally, two types of features could be used: Statistical based features and semantic and concept … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2015 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY ANALYSIS OF POLYPHENOL RECOVERY FROM ARTICHOKE WASTEAntonio ZuorroLarge amounts of a solid waste consisting mainly of outer bracts and stems are produced from the industrial processing of artichokes. In this study, the recovery of polyphenols from the two waste components was investigated. Extraction experiments were carried outby an environmentally friendly procedure using aqueous ethanol as solvent. The total polyphenol content, expressed as mg of GAE per g … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 3 Jul 2014 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION OF MICRO-COGENERATION SYSTEM FOR CONVENIENCE STORES IN THAILANDSuapphong Kritsanawonghong, Weijun Gao, Pawinee Iamtrakul, Soichiro KurokiThe growing worldwide demand for effective energy utilization has led to numerous techniques for rational use of energy including conservation techniques and renewable energy utilization. Recently, the number of small scale buildings such as minimarts and convenience stores in Thailand has increased rapidly. However, the interest of effective energy utilization has not been focused on the implementation of the new … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 15 May 2014 · 7,450 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENETIC-BASED NUTRITION RECOMMENDATION MODELS. A.A. Fayoumi, A. A. Hegazy, M. A. BelalEvolutionary computing is the collective name for a range of problem-solving techniques based on principles of biological evolution, such as natural selection and genetic inheritance. These techniques are being widely applied to a variety of problems in many vital fields. Also, Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) which applied the principles of Evolutionary computations, such as genetic algorithm, particle swarm, ant colony and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Apr 2014 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Extraction Conditions on the Recovery of Phenolic Antioxidants from Spent Coffee GroundsAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaThe extraction of phenolic compounds from Spent Coffee Grounds (SCG), a waste produced in large amounts worldwide, was investigated. SCG were rich in fiber and protein and had a total phenolic content of 18.75±0.43 mg GAE per gram dry weight. Extraction experiments were carried out in batch mode, using ethanol-water mixtures as solvent. A two-level factorial design was used to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 28 May 2013 · 8,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Carbon and Selected Macronutrients in Forest-Floor Litter of Rehabilitated and Secondary ForestsMelvin Ku Kin Kin, Japar Sidik Bujang, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed et al.Problem statement: Forest rehabilitation with human assistance by species selection and management shortens the time needed to rehabilitate degraded land as compared to natural succession. Empirical data on litter nutrient contents of tropical rain forests in Southeast Asia have been established, however it is limited to rehabilitated degraded lands. The objective of this study was to determine contents of carbon … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 7,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Electromyography-Based Facial Expression Recognition in Bi-Polar ConfigurationMahyar Hamedi, Sh-Hussain Salleh, Tan Tian Swee, KamarulafizamProblem statement: Facial expression recognition has been improved recently and it has become a significant issue in diagnostic and medical fields, particularly in the areas of assistive technology and rehabilitation. Apart from their usefulness, there are some problems in their applications like peripheral conditions, lightening, contrast and quality of video and images. Approach: Facial Action Coding System (FACS) and some … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 25 Jul 2011 · 9,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of Parallel Subunit for Synthesis Mathematical ModelsIssa M. ShehabatProblem statement: Mathematical modeling of different natural and technical objects and processes is one of the most important directions that needs high performance computing with huge memory. To reduce the computational time and expenses we need to carry out the calculations on specialized subunits. Approach: We described a self-organizing approximation method and introduced a new methodology of structural synthesis of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 6,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenomic Distance between Thymidylate Synthase and Dihydrofolate Reductase Genes Does Not Correlate With Phylogenetic Evolution in BacteriaVitor Hugo MoreauProblem statement: Dihydrofolate Reductase (DHFR) and Thymidylate Synthase (TS) exist as bifunctional enzymes coded into unique polypeptide chain in protozoans. Bifunctional DHFR-TS is associated with an increase in the enzymatic activity by channeling the substrate between the active sites. In some bacteria, DHFR and TS genes are neighbors in the genome, whereas in others, they are located millions of base … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,188 accessesView PDFCite
