Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCo-expression of Apoptosis-Related Molecules on Activated CD8+ CD38+ T-cells is Associated with HIV-1 Disease ProgressionJosé W. Rodríguez, Luis A. Rodríguez, Griselle Font et al.CD8+ T cells play a major role in controlling HIV-1 infection through the release of soluble lytic and non-lytic antiviral factors. Their decrease or defective function contributes to the HIV-1 disease progression. HIV-1 disease progression has been associated with a remarkable increase of CD38 expression on CD8+ T-cells. It has been also documented that a significant distribution of HIV-specific CD8+T-cells … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of the Flow Structure of A Thermal Plume Evolving in an Unlimited and in A Semi-Enclosed EnvironmentJamil Zinoubi, A. Ould Mohamed Mahmoud, Taoufik Naffouti et al.The basic objective of this study was to better knowledge the fine flow structure of thermal plume created by a heated disk, evolving in an unlimited and in a semi-enclosed environment. The flow visualization and the study of the temperature fluctuations spectrum show clearly a considerable change of the turbulent structure of the internal flow in comparison with the free … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupercritical Fluid Extraction of Palm CarotenoidsPuah C. Wei, Choo Y. May, Ma A. Ngan, Chuah C. HockThe extraction of carotenoids from crude palm oil was carried out in a dynamic (flow- through) supercritical fluid extraction system. The carotenoids obtained were quantified using off-line UV-visible spectrophotometry. The effects of operating pressure and temperature, flow rate of the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2), sample size of feed used on the solubility of palm carotenoids were investigated. The results showed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of a New, Rapid, Amperometric Immunosensor for the Detection of Low Concentrations of Bacteria Part II: Optimization of the System for Escherichia coliEric Carnes, Ebtisam WilkinsThe optimization of a flow-through immunoassay system was conducted to achieve rapid detection of low concentrations of E. coli bacteria. The system includes a new immunosensor that uses newly developed, disposable immunofiltration membranes to yield a system that is sensitive as well as simple. Comparison of the performance of this system with conventional immunoassays demonstrated a significantly shorter time for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInformation Provided by Accrual and Cash Flow Measures in Determining Firms’ Performance: Malaysian EvidenceNorita Mohd Nasir, Shamsul Nahar AbdullahAccrual and cash flow measures have been argued to be able to evaluate firms’ performance, although the results are inconclusive throughout countries and time. This study examined the accrual and cash flow measures independently and jointly among Malaysian firms. The study predicted that the low cash flow subgroups (high income to cash flow firms) would show better results in operating, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRectangular Storm Sewer Design Under Equal Sediment MobilityJaber AlmedeijRectangular storm sewers are conduits delivering water to outfall locations and have sizes that are typically larger than standard pipes, by which they become subject to more sediment deposits during operation and thus require higher flow strengths to maintain the bed clean. This study suggests a design procedure of self-cleansing rectangular sewers based on maintaining a lower limit of Shields … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Jun 2012 · 7,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLinear Protection Schemes Analysis in Scattered Placement Fiber-To-The Home-Passive Optical Network Using Customer Access Protection Unit SolutionMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Asma Che Aziz, Kasmiran JumariProblem statement: This study highlights on restoration scheme proposed against failure in working line at the drop region for Fiber-To-The Home (FTTH) with a Passive Optical Network (PON). Whereas PON is a system that brings optical fiber cable and signals all or most of the way to the end user. Approach: Survivability scheme against failure is focused on scattered residence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPalmitate-Induced Translocation of Caveolin-3 and Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in CardiomyocytesCatherine J. Knowles, Megan Dionne, Martina Cebova, Ilka M. PinzProblem statement: Palmitate is a known cardiac lipotoxin that blunts cardiomyocyte contractile function and induces apoptosis, likely via accumulation of the lipotoxic ceramide. Ceramide is a sphingolipid and localizes to caveolae, which are lined in the inner membrane leaflet by caveolin proteins. In this study, we investigated the effects of palmitate on caveolin proteins and on endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2011 · 7,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Decentralized Control of Unified Power Flow ControllerHossein Shayeghi, Ali AbdolalipourA new approach based on structured singular value is proposed for the robust decentralized Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) design. To achieve decentralization, using the schauder fixed point theorem the synthesis and analysis of Multi-Input Multi-output (MIMO) control system is translated into set of equivalent Multi-Input Single-Output (MISO) control system. Power systems such as the other industrial plants contain different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Wind Field in Tehran Using Hybrid Diagnostic and Prognostic ModelsM. Shafie-Pour, Y. Rashidi, M. ArdestaniThis article concentrates on Wind Field Simulation in a mega city such as Tehran which is home to nearly 10 million inhabitants. The necessity of having a comprehensive knowledge about the wind field in a certain zone is significant for different reasons; the most important of all would be surveying on the emission and dispersion of pollutants. The wind models … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,683 accessesView PDFCite
