Technical ReportOpen accessIn the abstractInfluences of Tactile Sensation on Pinch Force under Loaded and Unloaded ConditionsPoh Kiat Ng, Kian Siong Jee, Adi Saptari, Chiew Yean NgAlthough researchers have studied various parameters that affect grip force, few studies investigate the effects of tactile sensation on pinch force. This study aims to determine the influences of tactile sensation on pinch force with a special emphasis on screw knobs under loaded and unloaded conditions. The participants included 32 manual workers who were required to pinch and turn the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 17 Sep 2015 · 6,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Studies of Human β-GlucuronidaseIbrahim Ali Noorbatcha, Ayesha Masrur Khan, Hamzah Mohd SallehProblem statement: The enzyme β-glucuronidase is being used as a reporter molecule in the area of genetic engineering, as a component of prodrug therapy in cancer treatment and in the scouring process of cotton fabrics. However, a detailed understanding of the factors responsible for the stability and the activity of this enzyme is still not available. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Reuse Potential of Chemical Sludge from Textile Wastewater Treatment Plants in India-A Hazardous WasteHema Patel, Suneel PandeyProblem statement: This study was conducted to explore the reuse potential of the chemical sludge (considered as hazardous waste as per Indian Government Hazardous Waste Management Rules) generated from combined effluent treatment in textile clusters. These textile clusters mainly cover the cotton dyeing and printing operations. Approach: Therefore, treatability studies of chemical sludge were conducted using solidification/stabilization treatment to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Unusual Association between Chromoblastomycosis and Jorge Lobo’s Disease in the Same Patient from the Amazon RegionMaurimelia M. da Costa, Silvia H. Marques da Silva, Hugo J. R. Almeida et al.A clinical case of co-infection Cladophialophora sp. and Lacazia loboi is described and in a same patient with an 18-year history of verrucous plaques and parakeloidal nodular lesions. A 50-yearold man, a laborer, living in the Anajás city, Para, Brazil (rural Amazon region), was seen at the Evandro Chagas Institute’s ambulatory. Histopathological analysis revealed intense hyperplasia and hyperkeratosis of the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,747 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlants Responses to Nutrients Follow the Saturation Kinetic Typical of Enzyme Systems: Biological, Economical and Environmental ImplicationsR.P. LanaAgricultural efficiency has been associated with high plant productivity. However, it is dependent on fertilizers, which are nonrenewable resources. Crop production response to fertilizers is hyperbolic, following the Michaelis-Menten model and the law of diminishing return. Data of crop production (barley, bean, corn, cotton, soybean and wheat) as a function of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilization were analyzed by Lineweaver-Burk … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Tospovirus Transmitting Thrips Populations from IndiaRang Lal Meena, T. Ramasubramanian, S. Venkatesan, S. MohankumarThe presence of Tospovirus in thrips vector, Scirtothrips dorsalis has been detected for the first time in India using RT- PCR analysis. Similarly RT-PCR analysis with GBNV infected tomato leaves also resulted in the amplification of cDNA corresponding to the N gene (approximately 830 bp) of Coimbatore isolate. Dendrogram constructed on the basis of RAPD similarity matrix revealed that S. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial Effect of Untreated and Treated (Decolorized) Dyes by Agricultural WastesSibel Kahraman, Pelin YalcinToxicity (antibacterial effect) of untreated and treated (decolorized) dyes on a soil bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was determined. Low cost and easily available two agricultural residues (cotton stalk and apricot seed) as biosorbents were used to remove Astrazone Black and Astrazone Yellow from aqueous solution. The removal of these dyes with agricultural wastes reduced the toxic effect on P. aeruginosa. This … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,260 accessesView PDFCite

To assess theeffectiveness of various facemasks against PM10 and PM2.5,experiments with a mannequin head were conducted at 10 and 55 LPM airflowrates. A total of 38 masks, including 26 CMs, 7 SMs, and 5 N95 masks, weretested against PM10 and PM2.5 at 55 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 7 Dec 2023 · 5,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Inclusion of Albizia saman Pods in the Diet on the Performances of Dairy CowsMin Aung, Yin Yin Kyawt, Moe Thida Htun et al.Ruminants can achieve high productivity when the diet includes concentrates; however these are often expensive due to competition with humans and mono-gastric animals. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of partial inclusion of Albizia saman pods (ASP) in a Commercial Concentrate (CC) on the performances of dairy cows. Twelve cross-bred Holstein Friesian cows (472±13 kg) in the 12th … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2015 · 7,585 accessesView PDFCite
