Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHormetic Triggers for Intervention in Aging, Disease and TraumaJoan Smith SonnebornHormesis refers to the ability of a chemical or physical agent to condition the physiological state of an organism to tolerate stress with low doses of otherwise harmful agents. Evolutionary evidence shows that the survival and longevity of species hinge on their optimal ability to resist stress challenge. Hormesis is a potent strategy to stimulate latent repair processes to tolerate … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecycle of Plastic Waste and Agricultural WasteKhin Aye Tue, Moe Moe ThweManufacturing of polymer composites using plastic waste is one of the solutions to solve the environmental pollution problems caused by non-biodegradable polymer. In this study, Rice husk fiber Reinforced Polyethylene composites (RhRP) have been fabricated with rice husk fiber and plastic waste (recycle low density polyethylene) by compression molding method. Effect of fiber volume fraction, pressure and temperature on the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 7,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy Assessment of Kaempferia parviflora for the Management of Erectile DysfunctionPanakaporn Wannanon, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Terdthai Tong-Un et al.Age-related decline in erectile function is a noted phenomenon worldwide. A variety of medicinal plants have been identified as having strong aphrodisiac properties along with the ability to improve erectile functioning. Kaempferia Parviflora (KP) has famous as a Thai Viagra and use it to increase male impotency. However, there is limited scientific evidence regarding the efficacy of this herb on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 4 Feb 2013 · 19,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpoxy Insulators’ Lifetime Prediction Implementing Neural Network TechniqueL. S. Nasrat, A. M. IbrahimDue to wide implementation of Epoxy insulators in industrial applications and its economic implications; development of various Epoxy insulator materials has to be evaluated along with a reliable prediction methodology of their lifetimes. In this study, a new methodology based on Artificial-Neural-Networks (ANN) is developed to predict Epoxy insulators lifetime using laboratory measurements of their surface leakage current under accelerated … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2012 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Mild Stresses Known to Increase Longevity in Drosophila melanogaster Flies do not Increase Resistance to Oxidative StressÉric Le BourgExposure to a mild stress at a young age (hypergravity, cold or heat) increases longevity and resistance to heat shocks in Drosophila melanogaster flies and it may also delay behavioral aging and increase resistance to other stresses. The effect of these mild stresses on resistance to oxidative stress has not been studied. Flies were thus fed on a saccharose solution … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,301 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLiterature Review on Machine Reliability in Cellular Manufacturing SystemA. Nouri Houshyar, Z. Leman, H. Pakzad Moghadam, R. SulaimanNowadays, in the global markets companies have to produce high-quality product, low cost product in order to be alived in competetive markets. Group technology helps manufacturer to raech this aim. One of the most proper applications of group technology is called Cellular Manufacturing System (CMS). CMS is able to implement in the manufacturing system for overcoming the waeakness of traditional … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 3 Jan 2015 · 6,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractADAPTIVE EXPERT SYSTEM FOR CALCULATION OF REAL EAR INSERTION GAIN FOR DIGITAL HEARING AIDSadagopan Rajkumar, S Muttan, Balaji PillaiThe various gain calculating formulae for digital hearing aids is analyzed for different subjects to find out suitable adaptive gain formula for most successful gain recommendations. The object of the work is to design and develop an adaptive expert system, which could be effectively used to perform screening tests to identify the level of hearing impairment and recommend suitable gain … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Biochemical Markers for Early Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s DiseaseMeha Fatima Aftab, Rizwana S. WaraichAlzheimer’s disease, the most prevalent type of dementia, affects the life of elderly, to such extent that it impairs the ability to perform routine functions as well. The impairment of normal functions not only affects the patients but the family members as well. It is difficult to make a definitive diagnosis; hence some clinical and psychological tools are used to … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2012 · 13,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mathematical Modeling Approach to Characterize Hormesis, Caloric Restriction and Toxicity in Mortality Data from Toxicity StudiesPatricia J. NeafseyThe mortality of a population reflects the combined effects of natural aging with environmental insults (e.g. toxicant exposure, caloric restriction, over feeding, infections, etc.). No single endpoint, such as carcinogenesis, completely describes toxicant-induced effects in laboratory animals. Mathematical models of mortality and time-dependent exposure to toxicants can yield indices of net injury from all causes. With careful manipulation of diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuropsychological Dysfunction among HIV Infected Drug AbusersRamani S. Durvasula, Charles H. HinkinHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been documented to cause direct and indirect central nervous system dysfunction that can be observed as a progressive decline in neuropsychological functioning in a large proportion of persons with HIV and AIDS. Neuropsychological decline in individuals with HIV is characterized by cognitive and motor slowing, attentional deficits, executive dysfunction and memory impairment (characterized by intact … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
