Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Intelligent Control System for an Electrically Power Assisted Cycle (EPAC)Venura Subuddhika Chandraprabha Dissanayake, Risira Erantha Kannangara, Muthukudaarachchige Uvindu Bigumjith Dias et al.This paper is focused on proposing an enhanced controller for a hybrid drive mechanism in an Electrically Power Assisted Cycle (EPAC) to improve the battery energy utilization while maintaining the rider’s physical comfort. A real time data acquisition system was set up on a conventional bicycle using sensors and interfacing modules to verify the operating parameters. A fuzzy logic based … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2018 · 8,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in the Rumen Papillae During the Periparturient Transition in Holstein Dairy Cows are Accompanied by Changes in Abundance of Proteins Involved in Intracellular pH Regulation, But not SCFA TransportAnne Hermen Laarman, Adam Kleinberg, Michael Alexander Steele et al.The objective of this study was to examine changes in SCFA transport capacity in the rumen epithelium during the parturition transition period. Twelve pregnant, cannulated primiparous and multiparous cows were fed a standard Total Mixed Ration (TMR) for the duration of the dry period; after calving, all cows were switched to an early lactation TMR. Rumen pH, fluid and biopsies … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2015 · 7,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisposal of Agro-Industrials Wastes as Soil AmendmentsAli Mekki, Fatma Arous, Fathi Aloui, Sami SayadiWe investigated the fertilizing potential of three agro-industrial wastes (Compost (C), Dehydrated Manures (DM) and Digestate (D)) on soil properties, on seeds germination and the plants growth. Results showed that the addition of wastes modified several soil properties as pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Water Retention Capacity (WRC) and Soil Organic Matter (SOM). Hence, SOM increase from 1.5% in unamended soil … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 11 Jan 2014 · 7,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractButyrate and Subacute Ruminal Acidosis Affect Abundance of Membrane Proteins Involved with Proton and Short Chain Fatty Acid Transport in the Rumen Epithelium of Dairy CowsAnne Hermen Laarman, Louis Dionissopoulos, Ousama AlZahal et al.The objective of this study was to elucidate the effects of butyrate on the Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) membrane transport proteins and proton membrane transport proteins in the rumen epithelium. Sixteen mid-lactation cows were fed a 44% Non-Fibre Carbohydrate (NFC) diet and divided into a control treatment and a butyrate treatment. For 7 days, the cows on the control … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2013 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCatch Composition of Tsetse Flies (Glossina: Glossinidae)K.E. Okoh, I.S. Ndams, E. Kogi, C.G. VajimeProblem statement: A study to determine the composition of tsetse flies species was conducted between January and December, 2007 in Kamuku National Park, Nigeria, using Biconical and Nitse traps. Tsetse flies were trapped along gallery forest in five streams for two trapping days and were collected daily. Approach: All tsetse flies caught were identified to species level, sexed, separated into … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 23 Sep 2011 · 7,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relation between Physiological Parameters and the Anxiety State in Competitive Men Handball Players During Official CompetitionsAlexandru Acsinte, Eftene Alexandru, Alexandru Păcuraru et al.Problem statement: The aim of this study was to examine the blood biochemical and physiological changes that occur during competitions in elite handball players-men in a specific kind of anxiety state. The grounding, elaboration, verification and evaluation of a scientific concept based on psychological, physiological and biochemical guidance of the effort in competitive handball in order to generalize it at … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2011 · 7,708 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Genetic Diversity of Peach Cultivars in Taif by RAPD-PCRMohamed A. Nagaty, Salah El-Din El-Assal, Mahmoud M. RifaatProblem statement: Peach genotypes from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia were not adequately characterized at the biological and molecular levels. This study was carried out to characterize nine peach cultivars growing in Taif (KSA) at the biological and molecular levels. Approach: For the nine peach cultivars studied, flowering and fruiting indices were determined and eight, 10-base primers were used to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction and Purification of Collagenase Enzymes: A Critical ReviewSaid M Daboor, Suzanne M Budge, Abdel E Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Enzymes have vital roles in several industrial processes (foods, cosmetics, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals) due to their highly selective nature and high activity at very low concentrations. Recent efforts to identify new sources of useful enzymes have been concentrated on the marine environment because of the potential to make use of processing wastes. About 35-50% of the mass of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 14,320 accessesView PDFCite
