Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRADIUS BASED BLOCK LOCAL BINARY PATTERN ON T-ZONE FACE AREA FOR FACE RECOGNITIONMd. Jan Nordin, Abdul Aziz K. Abdul Hamid, Sumazly Ulaiman, R. U. GobithaasanThis study presents a comparison of recognition performance between feature extraction on the T-Zone face area and Radius based block on the critical point. A T-Zone face image is first divided into small regions where Local Binary Pattern (LBP) histograms are extracted and then concatenated into a single feature vector. This feature vector will further reduce the dimensionality scope by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 27 Dec 2014 · 7,967 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHormonal and Histopathological Alterations in Pituitary Glands and Reproductive Organs of Male and Female Mice Orally Inoculated with Pasteurella Multocida Type B: 2 and its LipopolysaccharidesFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Abdulnasir Tijjani et al.Oral infections of mice as animal model with Pasteurella multocida type B: 2 and its lipopolysaccharides is liable to cause detrimental alterations in the pituitary glands, which results in disruption of reproductive hormonal levels as well as organ functions in the male and female animals; thereby impeding the fertility of at risk animal population. Therefore, this study was designed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2014 · 7,554 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCYTOTOXICITY AND MODE OF CELL DEATH INDUCED BY TRIPHENYLTIN (IV) COMPOUNDS IN VITRONormah Awang, Zalila Abdul Aziz, Nurul Farahana Kamaludin, Kok Meng ChanA series of newly synthesized organotin (IV) with N-alkyl-N-phenyldithiocarbamate ligands namely triphenyltin (IV) ethylphenyldithiocarbamate (compound 1) and triphenyltin (IV) butylphenyldithiocarbamate (compound 2) were assessed for their cytotoxic effect against HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells and human CCD-18Co normal colon cells. The cytotoxicity of these organotins in both cells was assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazholium bromide (MTT) assay upon 24 h treatment. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 15 Mar 2014 · 8,746 accessesView PDF Cite
