Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInduction of a Soluble Anti-HIV-1 factor (s) with IFN-γ, IL-10, and β-Chemokine Modulating Activity by an Influenza-Bacterial Polyantigenic MixtureJosé W. Rodríguez, Nat O. Pagan, Mar C. Ocasio et al.Partial immune restoration may be obtained with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), but specific anti-HIV-1 immune responses do not appear to improve substantially. We have demonstrated that a soluble factor(s) induced by a mixture of inactivated influenza and bacterial vaccines called polyantigenic immunomodulator (PAI), possesses strong immunoregulatory and anti- HIV-1 activities. In the present study, we show that culture fluids … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Metoprolol and Felodipine in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric and High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic-UV MethodsHesham Salem, Ola M. AbdallahFour methods were developed for simultaneous determination of metoprolol and felodipine without previous separation. In the first method both drugs were determined using first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero crossing measurement at 222 and 235 nm for metoprolol and felodipine, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratios spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 250.1 nm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Enhancing Urea-Humic Acid Mixture with Refined Acid Sulphate SoilMohd Taufik Mohd Yusuff, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Acid Sulphate Soil (ASS) is a problem soil partly because of its high acidity. This low pH could be exploited to reduce ammonia loss from urea by reducing soil microsite pH. The use Humic Acid (HA) to control ammonia loss from urea has been reported but the cost of this material is high. This laboratory study compared the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,282 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChemical and Physical Characteristics of Cocopeat-Based Media Mixtures and Their Effects on the Growth and Development of Celosia cristataYahya Awang, Anieza Shazmi Shaharom, Rosli B. Mohamad, Ahmad SelamatProblem statement: Cocopeat is considered as a good growing media component with acceptable pH, electrical conductivity and other chemical attributes but it has been recognized to have high water holding capacity which causes poor air-water relationship, leading to low aeration within the medium, thus affecting the oxygen diffusion to the roots. Incorporation of coarser materials into cocopeat could improve the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 19,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCorrosion of Copper Metal in Presence of Binary MixturesMedhat A. Shaker, Hanaa H. Abdel-RahmanThe rates of copper corrosion were determined in presence and in absence of different compositions of water-ethanol, -ethylene glycol, -glycerol, -dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and -dioxane binary mixtures. The rates of corrosion were found to decrease by increasing the concentration of solvents. The percent inhibition range from 10.9 to 78.2% depends on the nature of solvent and its concentration. The calculated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 8,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental Study of Diesel Engine Generator Performance and Emission Characteristics Using a Mixture of Jatropha Oil and Rubber Seed Oil Biodiesels Along a Two-Step TransesterificationFana Gebremedhin Gebremichael, Joao Fernando ChidamoioThis study investigates the performance and emission properties of engine-generator powered using various dual biodiesel mixes prepared from two inedible feedstock jatropha and rubber. Jatropha and rubber oils had high acid values, which were 13.96 and 27.91 mg KOH/g, respectively. Therefore, a two-step transesterification process was conducted to lower the acid value to 0.28 and 0.42 mg KOH/g for jatropha … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 1 Jul 2024 · 5,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUtility-based Scheduling Frameworks for Efficient Quality-of-Service Differentiation in a Mixture of Real-time and Non-real-time TrafficsOlalekan Bello, Hushairi Zen, AL-Khalid Othman, Khairuddin Abdul HamidThis paper proposes a utility-based scheduling framework for efficient differentiation of users’ Quality-of-Service (QoS) in a broadband wireless access system involving heterogeneous mixed traffic flows. The utility-based scheduling framework, called Maximum QoS Satisfaction (MQS), is based on three novel Radio Resource Allocation (RRA) techniques; delay-based scheduling policy for Real-Time (RT), minimum-rate-based scheduling policy for Non-Real-Time (NRT) and a throughput-based scheduling … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 19 Oct 2015 · 7,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA MIXTURE DROPOUT MECHANISM IN A LONGITUDINAL STUDY WITH TWO TIME POINTS: A METHADONE STUDYZohreh Toghrayee, Parvin Jalili, Heng Chin Low, Ardavan TaghvaOne of the most important issues that confront statisticians in longitudinal studies is dropouts. A variety of reasons may lead to withdrawal from a study and produce two different missingness mechanisms, namely, missing at random and non-ignorable dropouts. Nevertheless, none of these mechanisms is tenable in most studies. In addition, it may be that not all of dropouts are nonignorable. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 26 Apr 2014 · 6,726 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of a Mixture of Thermophilic Enzymes Produced by the Fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus to Enhance the Enzymatic Hydrolysis of the Sugarcane Bagasse CelluloseJ. R. Monte, W. Carvalho, A. M. F. MilagresProblem statement: The production of hydrolytic enzymes by T. aurantiacus has been performed under solid-state fermentations using lignocellulosic materials. The influences of the inoculum size and of the fermentation medium on the production of hemicellulases and cellulases were studied. Filtrates from the cultures were used to hydrolyze a pulp of sugarcane bagasse and the produced enzymes were shown to be … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 9,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Diloxanide Furoate and Metronidazole in Binary Mixture Using First Derivative of the Ratio-Spectra and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-UV MethodsNora H. Al-ShaalanTwo methods are presented for simultaneous determination of diloxanide furoate and metronidazole.
