EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Association of HLA Class II Alleles with the Response to Alfa-Interferon/Ribavirin Therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C PatientsAwny Aly Abol-Ez Gawish, Nahla Abd El-Hamid Mohammed, Rasha Adel Sayed Ahmed Hussein, Elsaid Galal El-BadrawyHuman Leucocyte Antigens (HLA) class II appears to play an important role in the individual’s immune response to viral infection. The present study was aimed at assessment of the relationship between HLA DRB1 alleles and the response to HCV combined therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C patients (CHC). We enrolled a total of 44 chronically infected HCV patients without Hepatitis B … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 12 Nov 2015 · 6,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUSE OF SALINE WATER FOR GREENHOUSE BELL PEPPER (CAPSICUM ANNUUM) PRODUCTIONV. C. Patil, K. A. Al-Gaadi, M. A. Wahb-Allah et al.A greenhouse experiment was conducted to study the response of bell pepper to quality of irrigation water and irrigation regimes. The main treatments included non-saline water (EC-0.5 dS m-1) and saline water (EC-3.5 dS m-1). The sub-treatments included three irrigation regimes (at 100, 80 and 60% of crop Evapotranspiration (ETc)) in combination with three crop growth stages (vegetative, flowering to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 1 Feb 2014 · 8,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Melatonin in Prevention of Neuropathy in STZ-Induced Diabetic RatsNasser Zangiabadi, Vahid Sheibani, Majid Asadi-Shekaari et al.Problem statement: Diabetes mellitus occurs mainly with chronic polyneuropathy, and oxidative stress plays an important role in emergence of most neurologic and behavioral changes in diabetic patients. Many studies have focused on the beneficial effects of various antioxidants such as melatonin on diabetic neuropathy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of melatonin in prevention of neuropathy … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 9,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Multiple Imputations to Freight Transportation Survey Data: A Case Study of Commodity Flow SurveyTerdsak Rongviriyapanich, Akachut SuppiyatrakulProblem statement: Freight transportation data was indispensable input to transportation planning. In Thailand, efforts had been put to collect freight movement data by conducting road side survey and commodity flow survey. The results of these surveys did not produce consistent volume of shipment due to limited sampling coverage and non-response. Nevertheless, freight distribution patterns, which were derived from these surveys, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Hyperoxia on Brain Tissue Oxygen Tension in Non-Sedated, Non- Anesthetized Arctic Ground Squirrels: An Animal Model of Hyperoxic StressYilong Ma, Shufen Wu, Lawrence DuffyArctic Ground Squirrels (AGS) are classic hibernators known for their tolerance to hypoxia. AGS have been studied as a model of hypoxia with potential as a medical research model. Problem statement: Their unique resistance to the stressors of low oxygen led us to hypothesize that AGS might also be adaptable to hyperoxia. Approach: This study examined the physiological pattern associated … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 8,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Process Parameters on Electrical Discharge Machined Job Surface IntegrityA.K.M. Asif Iqbal, Ahsan Ali KhanProblem statement: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is the most widely used non conventional machining process for removing material from workpiece by means of a series of repeated electric discharges. Electrical Discharge milling (ED-milling) is an emerging technology where a cylindrical tool electrode follows a programmed path in order to obtain the desired shape of a part. During machining of metals … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Heterogeneity in Phase II Clinical TrialsChristopher N. Barnes, Shesh N. RaiProblem statement: The common assumption in non-randomized Phase II clinical trials is a homogeneous population with homogeneous response. This assumption is at odds with many trials today; a heterogeneous response due to the existence of subgroups. Approach: In order to examine the effects of heterogeneity on the trial outcome, a systematic platform is developed to quantify the range and classes … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFoxp3-Mediated Immunity of Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line PANC-1Renxi Wang, Gencheng Han, Jianan Wang et al.Problem statement: More and more evidences have shown that human cancer cells can express Foxp3, the regulatory T cell-associated transcription factor. The role of Foxp3 in human cancer cells is still unclear. We detected Foxp3 expression in human pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1. SiRNA assays showed that Foxp3 expression suppressed the expression of TGF-β and IL-10 which could induce immune … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 11 Jan 2010 · 7,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Oxygen Transfer Correlations for Stirred Tank Bioreactor Agitated with Atypical Helical Ribbon ImpellerMohd Shamzi Mohamed, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Ramakrishnan Nagasundara Ramanan et al.Problem Statement: Mixing filamentous fungi entails delicate balance between promoting high volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) while keeping low hydrodynamic stresses in the microenvironment of cultures. This study examined the oxygen transfer capability of a prototype low shear helical impeller as a potential replacement for the standard Rushton turbine. Approach: The dependence of kLa upon specific power uptake, superficial gas … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 9,167 accessesView PDFCite
