Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation Induced DNA Double Strand Break Studies of a Metal Sensitive Novel Bacterial Isolate from East Calcutta WetlandSanhita Chowdhury, Anindita Chakraborty, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriProblem statement: This study was an attempt to isolate anaerobic microbes with potential for DNA double strand break repair using methanogen specific medium (DSMZ 120) from East Calcutta Wetland in India. It also intended to verify the specificity of the medium for isolation of the desired family of microbe. Approach: Culture based technique was used to obtain the pure isolate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Fabrication of Self-Made 1×12 Polymer Optical Fiber-Based Optical Splitters for Automotive ApplicationMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Hadi Guna, Mohd Hazwan Harun et al.Problem statement: Multimode fiber cables can conduct many light rays and can operate free of disruption and with a greater bandwidth than a wireless connection. However, due to a slight variation in the speed of the light rays through the multimode fiber, a signal transmitted by all of these rays becomes spread out. Consequently, the signals become broader and therefore … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSearching of Main Cause Leading to Severe Influenza A Virus Mutations and Consequently to Influenza Pandemics/EpidemicsGuang Wu, Shaomin YanThe unpredictable mutations in the proteins from influenza A virus lead to the great difficulty in prevention of possible outbreak of bird flu and pandemic/epidemic of influenza. This unpredictability is due to the fact that we know little about the causes that lead to the mutations. In three of our recent studies on the hemagglutinins from influenza A virus, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolyherbal EMSA ERITIN Blocks Nuclear Factor-Kappa B (NF-κB) and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Irradiated MiceYuyun Ika Christina, Mansur Ibrahim, Muhaimin Rifa’iRadiation therapy is commonly used in cancer treatment that produce deleterious effects, such as normal cell death (apoptotic or necrotic) and suppression of hematopoietic stem cells. This effect was caused by ion rays that can rise to high of free radical. The high of free radical trigger the inflammation of cells. EMSA ERITIN is medicinal herb used as preventative agents … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 May 2015 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffective Atomic Number of Lead Sodium Borate Glass Systems at 662 keVP. Limkitjaroenporn, W. Chewpraditkul, J. Kaewkhao, S. TuscharoenMass attenuation coefficients of glass systems xPbO: 20Na2O: (80-x)B2O3 (x = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55% mol) were determined at 662 keV photon energy using gamma rays transmission method. The theoretical values of mass attenuation coefficients were calculated by WinXCom program. These coefficients were then used to determine the effective atomic numbers of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 8,300 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Affecting the Geometry of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis in Chrysosporium Tropicum and Fusarium OxysporumNamita Soni, Soam PrakashProblem statement: Biosynthesis of nanoparticles using fungal cells is a novel approach to develop biotechnological possess such as bioleaching and bioremediation. In the present study, an effort was made to investigate the effect of physio-chemical parameters on the silver nanoparticle formation with the fungus Chrysosporium tropicum Carmichael and Fusarium oxysporum Schltdl. Approach: The possibilities to manipulating the geometry of silver … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2012 · 19,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVertical Profile of C, N, P, K and Radionuclides in Soil Collected from Highland Tea Plantation AreasZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Cameron Highlands is a well known agricultural area in Peninsular Malaysia. Long term usage of fertilizer has caused accumulation of major elemental component in the soil. This accumulation will cause enrichment of the nutrient in the catchment located at downstream of the river through runoff. Approach: Two tea plantations on the upstream with hilly condition plantation were selected … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication of X-Ray Optics for a Portable Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer Using Electrolytic in Process Dressing Grinding and Magnetorheological FinishingShinsuke Kunimura, Hiroshi Kasuga, Yosuke Hachisu, Hitoshi OhmoriProblem statement: A portable X-ray elemental analyzer (total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometer) has been developed since 2006 and this spectrometer made it possible to perform ultra trace elemental determination. The intensity of scattered X-rays that become background noise in a spectrum is reduced with the improvement in surface accuracy of an X-ray reflector used in the portable spectrometer and therefore … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2011 · 7,293 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,968 accessesView PDFCite
