Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Extraction of Pectic and Polyphenols from Mexican Lime Pomace and BagasseDaniela Sanchez-Aldana, Cristobal Noe Aguilar, Guadalupe Virginia Nevarez-Moorillon, Juan Carlos Contreras EsquivelMexican lime bagasse and pomace are rich in pectin and they also represent an important source of value-added compounds such as polyphenols. Two different options for the combined recovery of pectin and phenolic compounds from Mexican lime bagasse and pomace, two byproducts of industrial lime processing, were developed. Conventional and microwave-assisted extraction methods were used. All pectic extracts presented a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2013 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeomorphology Using Geographic Information System and Globel MapperEmad AkawwiAn effort has been made to evaluate drainage morphometry and its influence on landform processes, geology and erosion characteristics in Jordan Valley and surrounding area. Geological maps 1:50,000 scale and the professional Google Earth images were used for analysis of various morphometric, lithological and landform characteristics of Jordan Valley basin. Morphometric analysis was carried out at sub basin level using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Sep 2013 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Based Bidirectional Relay Network in the Presence of Phase NoiseV. N. Senthil Kumaran, S. Rajkumar, S. J. ThiruvengadamIn this study, the performance of OFDM based bidirectional relay network which employs Physical Layer Network Coding (PLNC) is analyzed in the presence of phase noise. The bidirectional relay network is assumed to consist of two sources and a relay, where each node has a single antenna and operates in half duplex mode. The PLNC based OFDM system transmits high … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 9 Sep 2013 · 6,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning and Manufacturing of a Non Thermal Milk Pasteurizer Using Electrical FieldAsaad Rehman Saeed Al-HilphyUsing of traditional milk pasteurization methods caused fouling by heat, particularly rapid pasteurization by ohmic heating at 220 volts resulted protein denaturation, when milk holding of 15 sec under ohmic heating at 72°C. So to control these properties a Non-thermal treatment by different electrical fields at 20, 27.5, 55 V/cm (80, 110, 220V, AC) and quickly milk pass between poles … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN EFFICIENT POWER REDUCTION TECHNIQUE IN ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING SYSTEM USING TONE RESERVATIONV. Nandalal, S. SophiaIn a basic communication system, the data’s are modulated onto a single carrier frequency. The available bandwidth is then totally occupied by each symbol. This kind of system can lead to Inter-Symbol-Interference (ISI) in case of frequency selective fading. The basic idea of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is to divide the available spectrum into several orthogonal sub channels so … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlattening Effect on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat PipeWeeranut Intagun, Pradit Terdtoon, Phurt SakulchangsatjataiThe effect of pipe flattening on heat transfer characteristics and the internal phenomena of a sintered-wick heat pipe has been investigated by using three-dimensional Finite Element Method. The calculation domains were focused at three important regions, i.e., vapor core, wick and wall. The Cartesian coordinates and the three-dimensional tetrahedral elements were applied in this model. The selected total elements were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant and Antimutagenic Activities of Taif Grape (Vitis vinifera) CultivarsAbdelmegid Ibrahim Fahmi, Mohamed Ahmed Nagaty, Ahmed Mohamed El-ShehawiExtract of grape Vitis vinifera has been reported to exhibit antioxidant and antimutagenic activities and the phenolic compounds play a vital role in determining these activities. Therefore; the objective of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-mutagenic activities as well as the phenolic composition of different grape cultivar extracts collected from Taif region. The grape cultivars namely; … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 8,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTunability Performance of Reflectarrays Based on Non-Linear Material PropertiesM. Y. Ismail, M. Hashim DahriLimited phase range and narrower bandwidth are the main performance limitations of reflectarray antennas for high gain applications which result in the performance to be restricted particularly in satellite and earth observatory systems. This study provides a thorough investigation on the tunability performance of reflectarrays designed in X-band frequency range using different non-linear dielectric substrates. An investigation of phase agility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2013 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant and Photosynthetic Responses in Plants Under Boron Toxicity: A ReviewLucia Guidi, Alberto Pardossi, Elena Degl’Innocenti, Marco LandiBoron (B) is a micronutrient that has long been known essential not only for plants and animals. Otherwise, in crop plants the range of B concentration from essentiality to toxicity appears extremely narrow. Although B deficiency has been well investigated, during recent years many researchers have also investigated boron toxicity effects, making progress in the comprehension of boron transport within … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2012 · 12,769 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow does a Culture of Learning Impact on Student Behaviour?Fransa WeeksProblem statement: Despite the need for a culture of learning in South African schools, research reveal that it is not generally encountered. Research also indicates the manifestation of student behavior problems constraining effective learning. Approach: This research study was directed at determining if a link existed between behavior problems and a lack of a culture of learning. The research approach … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Mar 2012 · 8,467 accessesView PDFCite
