Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Advances in Point of Care Diagnostic Tools: A ReviewLaura Wessels, Haider RaadGlobally, there is a great need for portable, inexpensive diagnostic tools that can provide quick, accurate results using relatively small sample volumes. Point-Of-Care (POC) measurements of human saliva, sweat and/or blood capable of detecting glucose levels, foreign pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and many different viruses (HIV, Ebola, Influenza, etc.) that use microfluidics and optofluidics are close to commercial availability. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2016 · 8,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Architecture of Maximum Power Point Tracking for Ultra-Low-Power Based Hybrid Energy Harvester in Ubiquitous Devices: A ReviewMichelle Lim Sern Mi, Sawal Hamid Muhammad Ali, Md Shabiul IslamThis research work presents a novel architecture of an Ultra-Low-Power (ULP) based Hybrid Energy Harvester (HEH) consisting of multiple input sources such as kinetic, thermal and solar energy, harvested from passive human power. Having multiple ambient sources mitigates limitations caused by single sources especially for bodily-worn applications; however, this results in impedance mismatch among the different integrated sources. To overcome … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 7,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGate Replacement Technique for Reducing Leakage Current in Wallace Tree MultiplierNaveen Raman, ThanushkodiLeakage power has become more significant in the power dissipation of today’s CMOS circuits. This affects the portable battery operated devices directly. The multipliers are the main key for designing an energy efficient processor, where the multiplier design decides the digital signal processors efficiency. In this study gate replacement technique is used to reduce the leakage power in 4×4 Wallace … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Mar 2013 · 6,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManipulation of Photosynthesis in Grape (Vitis vinifera) CV. ‘Flame’ by the Application of Two Sucrose AnalogsM. E. Tiznado-Hernandez, J. A. Orozco-Avitia, A. J. Ojeda-Contreras, A. A. Gardea-BejarThe translocation of photosynthates from the leaves is important for the accumulation of sugars in grape berries. Two sucrose analogs were applied at post-veraison to determine their effects on leaf photosynthesis. It is hypothesized that the signal of sugar accumulation in leaves will bring a reduction in photosynthesis and an increase in the photosynthate translocation rate to the berries. The … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,930 accessesView PDFCite
