Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Review of Static Tests and Recent StudiesSrilert ChotpantaratProblem statement: Acid mine drainage from waste rocks, tailings and other mine components, is one of the most important environmental concerns at mining sites. To attempt to determine the balance between the acid and neutralization potentials of the material and evaluate the possible acid-forming potential of mine waste, many static prediction tests have been developed to evaluate the acid-forming potentials … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Apr 2011 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEquilibrium Kinetics and Isotherm Studies of Cu (II) Adsorption from Waste Water onto Alkali Activated Oil Palm AshZaira Zaman Chowdhury, Sharifuddin Mohd. Zain, Rashid Atta Khan, Abdulbari Abdulrahman AhmedProblem statement: Heavy metal accumulation in waste water could affect aquatic life, human health and overall ecosystem adversely. Therefore, in recent years much emphasis has been given for the use of industrial waste material as low cost adsorbents for removal of metallic contaminants from waste water. Approach: Present study deals with the adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of Cu (II) cation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Studies about Phonological Deficit Theory in Children with Developmental Dyslexia: ReviewDr. Emrah CaylakProblem statement: Developmental Dyslexia (DD) or Reading Disability (RD) that was part of a larger heterogeneous group of learning disorders and characterized by unexpected problems in academic performance, despite average intelligence. Approach: Current opinions on the biological basis of dyslexia pointed to problems with phonological processing deficits with resulting poor phonemic awareness. Though there was much support for this hypothesis … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 14,966 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimenting the Simulation Strategy of Membrane Computing with Gillespie Algorithm by Using Two Biological Case StudiesRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd ZinProblem statement: The evolution rules of membrane computing have been applied in a nondeterministic and maximally parallel way. In order to capture these characteristics, Gillespie’s algorithm has been used as simulation strategy of membrane computing in simulating biological systems. Approach: This study was carried to discuss the simulation strategy of membrane computing with Gillespie algorithm in comparison to the simulation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNew Mesogenic Schiff Base Esters with Polar Chloro Substituent: Synthesis, Thermotropic Properties and X-Ray Diffraction StudiesSie-Tiong Ha, Lay-Khoon Ong, Yasodha Sivasothy et al.Problem statement: Many studies have been conducted on the Schiff base’s alkyl and alkyloxy possessing terminal halogen substituent. However, the thermotropic properties of Schiff base’s ester (or alkanoyloxy) with chloro terminal group remained unstudied. Approach: Synthesis a series of new Schiff base ester possessing polar chloro group and investigate its mesomorphic properties. The title compounds were prepared via condensation and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 12,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudies on Wound Healing and Antiulcer Activities of Extract of Aerial Parts of Phyllanthus niruri L. (Euphorbiaceae)C. O. Okoli, A. C. Ezike, P. A. Akah et al.Problem statement: Phyllanthus niruri is widely used in many parts of the world to manage a wide range of diseases. As part of efforts to elucidate its pharmacological activities and hence medicinal potential, we studied the wound healing and antiulcer properties of extract of the aerial parts using experimentally-created wounds and ulcers in rodents. Approach: Wound healing effect was assessed … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn vitro Growth and Inhibition Studies of Monosodium Urate Monohydrate Crystals by Different Herbal ExtractsBharat B. Parekh, Sonal R. Vasant, Kashmira P. Tank et al.Problem statement: A large number of people in the world have been suffering from gout for centuries. Gout is the term given to a metabolic condition in which the signs and symptoms results from the deposition of crystals of Monosodium Urate Monohydrate (MSUM) in various connective tissues. Approach: It was quite difficult to grow good quality large MSUM crystals because … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 10,210 accessesView PDFCite
