Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Mechanisms of Neurodegenerative Diseases Induced by Human Retroviruses: A ReviewBryan P. Irish, Zafar K. Khan, Pooja Jain et al.Problem statement: Infection with retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) have been shown to lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as HIV-associated dementia (HAD) or neuroAIDS and HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP), respectively. Approach: HIV-1-induced neurologic disease is associated with an influx of HIV-infected monocytic cells across the blood-brain … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 14,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison and Parametric Study of Flameless Oxidation in a Gas Turbine Using Two Kinetics MechanismsMohamed Hamdi, Hmaïed Benticha, Mohamed SassiThe so-called "Flameless Oxidation" is a novel combustion mode, in which combustion products are re-circulated and mixed into the fresh incoming fuel and air streams. This reduces the concentration of the reactants and thereby reducing the reaction rate through avoiding the formation of sharp high temperature zones in the combustion chamber. Flameless combustion has been acknowledged as one of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImprovement Mechanisms of Management Information System (MIS) In Iran's Agricultural Extension OrganizationAli Asadi, Abdolmotalleb Rezaei, Ahmad RezvanfarThis research describes the MIS improvement mechanisms in Iran's Agricultural Extension Organization. A survey study was applied as a methodology of research work. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that addressed to evaluating managers’ responses regarding to MIS improvement mechanisms. All mechanisms had mean score greater than 5 as perceived by managers which implied that most mechanisms are moderately … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Mechanisms for Altered Glucose Homeostasis in HIV InfectionPaula W. HruzA complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to HIV-associated insulin resistance remains elusive. Complex interrelationships between genetic predisposition, disease-related body changes and multidrug therapy all contribute to alterations in glucose homeostasis. These abnormalities can be differentiated between acute and reversible changes directly induced by HAART medications and more chronic and less reversible changes due to the development of lipodystrophy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMorphing Mechanisms Part 1: Using Iterative Learning Control to Morph Cam Follower MotionNonglak Phetkong, Meng-Sang Chew, Richard W. LongmanThis study introduces the concept of morphing mechanisms. Mechanisms are normally designed for specific operating conditions and once they are built one may wish to use them under different operating conditions. In some cases, a mechanism may be imperfectly fabricated and one would like to get the intended ideal performance. In these cases, instead of designing, fabricating and replacing the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating Sintering Mechanisms for Additive Manufacturing of Conductive TracesJasmine McKenzie, Salil DesaiAdditive Manufacturing (AM) processes enable the fabrication of miniaturized and flexible devices on complex geometries. This paper explores a hybrid additive manufacturing technology that integrates micro-extrusion and PICO-jetting methods. Conductive slurries and colloidal inks were optimized for their rheological properties to aid their precise deposition. A variety of conductive materials which include carbon, silver, nano-particle silver and nickel were deposited … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 5 May 2018 · 8,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEpigenetic Mechanisms in Hepatitis C Virus-Associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Potential New Link Between Stem Cells, Virology and CancerQinghua Feng, Sajida Hassan, Trina Das et al.Recent studies suggest that epigenetic mechanisms are not only essential for the dynamic transcriptional regulation in embryonic and somatic stem cells, but are also actively involved in tumorigenesis: genes important for pluripotency are epigenetically regulated and aberrant epigenetic changes have been detected in virtually all human malignancies studied, including Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Infection with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2013 · 8,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMechanisms of Anti-Cancer Effects of Vernonia amygdalina Leaf ExtractUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: Vernonia amygdalina (V. amygdalina) has been shown to have cancer cell inhibition and cytotoxic effects. Approach: This study discusses the multi-faceted and multi-linked mechanisms by which cancer tissue inhibition and destruction is achieved by V. amygdalina leaf extract and powder (subsequently called V. amygdalina Extract). Cancer cell inhibition by V. amygdalina is suggested to occur through inhibition of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2011 · 9,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFish Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: ReviewA. E. Ghaly, D. Dave, S. Budge, M. S. BrooksProblem statement: Spoilage of food products is due to chemical, enzymatic or microbial activities One-fourth of the world’s food supply and 30% of landed fish are lost through microbial activity alone. With the ever growing world population and the need to store and transport the food from one place to another where it is needed, food preservation becomes necessary in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 59,853 accessesView PDFCite
