Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutrient Contents per Serving of Twelve Varieties of Cooked Rice Marketed in JordanJafar M. El-Qudah, Basem F. Dababneh, Ala'a A. Al-Bakheit et al.Jordan imports rice from different countries without any quality preferences. Twelve varieties of cooked rice marketed in Jordan were analyzed. The content per serving of these varieties were computed for energy, protein, carbohydrates, fat, calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, copper, iron and phosphorous. The protein content per serving found to range from 0.49 g for La Cigala rice to 6.2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,027 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Water Resources Management Improving Langat Basin Ecosystem HealthMazlin B. Mokhtar, Mohammad Fawzi Al Ajlouni, Rahma ElfitrieThe ecosystem provides us with all the goods and services that form the base of our economic, social cultural and spiritual life. Good scientific information will be required for managing the environment by using the Ecosystem approach. The groundwater is considered as a possible supplementary of alternative water source, and some factories already started shifting their water source from surface … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,053 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Reduced- Protein Diets at Constant Total Sulfur Amino Acids: Lysine Ratio on Pullet Development and Subsequent Laying Hen PerformanceFariborz Khajali, M. Faraji, Saeid Karimi DehkordiThe effect of using a low protein regime in pullet development and subsequent layer performance was studied. The experiment consisted of two periods of rearing and laying. Two hundred and sixty Hy-line W36 chicks were used. In the rearing period, dietary protein level and ME content series of the control group used during starter (18-42), grower (43-63) and developer (64-119d) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,067 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAsymptotic Behavior for Solution of Reaction-Diffusion SystemsM. Yahi, K. SaoudiThe existence, uniqueness, and asymptotic behavior of the solution of a balanced two-component reaction-diffusion system have been investigated. It was shown that a global and unique solution existed and its second component can be estimated using the Lyapunov Functional. It was, also, demonstrated that each component of the solution converged, at infinity, to a constant which can be found in … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,845 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Algorithm for Capacitated Multifacility Location ProblemsChansiri Singhtaun, Peerayuth CharnsethikulIn this paper, a squared-Euclidean distance multifacility location problem with inseparable demands under balanced transportation constraints is analyzed. Using calculus to project the problem onto the space of allocation variables, the problem becomes minimizing concave quadratic integer programming problem. The algorithm based on extreme point ranking method combining with logical techniques is developed. The numerical experiments are randomly generated to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,441 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow Serious Regional Economic Inequality in Jordan? Evidence from Two National Household SurveysMohammed Issa ShahateetThe objective of this study is to measure and explain the extent of regional economic inequalities in Jordan. To do so, this study uses the raw data of two national household surveys on expenditure and income that covers 5,971 and 11,153 households in 1997 and 2002, respectively. As a check on the empirical results, the study applies four measures of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 7,212 accessesView PDF Cite
