Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Wright Test an Appropriate Screening Test for Diagnosis of Brucellosis?Behzad Mohsenpour, Shahla Afrasiabian, Katayoon Hajibagheri, Ebrahim GhaderiProblem statement: Diagnosis of brucellosis is generally based on culture, polymerase chain reaction and serology. The first two methods are not accessible in all parts of world and are expensive. The routine method for diagnosis of brucellosis is considering Wright test as the first screening test; if the results are Wright positive’ Wright would be the next choice otherwise 2ME … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 16,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGender, Stereotype Threat and Mathematics Test ScoresMing Tsui, Xiao Y. Xu, Edmond VenatorProblem statement: Stereotype threat has repeatedly been shown to depress women’s scores on difficult math tests. An attempt to replicate these findings in China found no support for the stereotype threat hypothesis. Our math test was characterized as being personally important for the student participants, an atypical condition in most stereotype threat laboratory research. Approach: To evaluate the effects of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 16 Aug 2011 · 8,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on Geomechanical Properties of Tropical Organic Soils and PeatBujang B.K. Huat, Afshin Asadi, Sina KazemianProblem statement: Organic soils and peat were believed to be geotechnically problematic due to their very high compressibility, very low shear strength and difficult accessibility. Although conventional soil mechanics theory could be applied to the soils, it was found that important anomalies existed which required special considerations. Correlations between geomechanical parameters for the soils were known to be important for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 10,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Allelopathic Potential of Extracts of Azadirachta Indica (Neem)Zoheir Y. Ashrafi, Aptin Rahnavard, Sedigheh Sadeghi et al.The allelopathic potential of extracts of Azadirachta indica L., which is one of the most dominant weeds in tropical regions of South-west Asia, was investigated under laboratory conditions. The n-hexane-soluble, acetone-soluble and water-soluble fractions obtained from the acetone extract of A. indica shoots inhibited the germination and the growth of roots and shoots of six test plant species. The inhibitory … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of the Climatic Factors on the Decay of Marbles: an Experimental StudyPaola Marini, Rossana BellopedeStone decay is affected by the influence of climatic factors. In particular marble degradation, that could be expressed by decohesion and /or bowing, is mainly due to the action of temperature and water (rains and relative humidity). In this work non destructive and destructive tests have been performed to evaluate the decay of marble slabs subjected both to natural exposition … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of Some Bridge Pier Scour Formulae Using Field and Laboratory DataThamer A. Mohamed, Megat J.M.M. Noor, Abdul H. Ghazali, Bujang B.K. HuatEstimation of maximum local scour depth at the bride pier site is necessary for the safety and economy of the designed bridge. Numerous formulae are available and almost all of these formulae were developed based on laboratory data. Validation of these formulae is necessary in order to ascertain which of the formulae will give a reasonable estimate of the local … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Interferon-Gamma Release Assay Results for Latent Tuberculosis Infection Diagnosis at a Referral Clinical Laboratory in South KoreaTae Soung Kim, Ga Yeon Kim, Young Ki Lee, Jae Kyung KimThe world health organization states that individuals with Latent Tuberculosis Infection (LTBI) are infected with Tuberculosis (TB) bacteria but do not show symptoms of active disease. However, they are at possibility of developing vigorous TB and potentially transmitting the illness to others. In 2018, South Korea reported a 14.8% positivity rate in LTBI screening, with higher rates observed among older … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2023 · 6,033 accessesView PDFCite
