Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpoxy Insulators’ Lifetime Prediction Implementing Neural Network TechniqueL. S. Nasrat, A. M. IbrahimDue to wide implementation of Epoxy insulators in industrial applications and its economic implications; development of various Epoxy insulator materials has to be evaluated along with a reliable prediction methodology of their lifetimes. In this study, a new methodology based on Artificial-Neural-Networks (ANN) is developed to predict Epoxy insulators lifetime using laboratory measurements of their surface leakage current under accelerated … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2012 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite

Approach:The study includes two Salinity and pH factors and is consisted from 12 treatment and three repetitions. Tomato seeding grown in foam trays were transplanted in the joune 2010 to bags filled … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification a Novel Raw-Starch-Degrading-α-Amylase from a Tropical Marine BacteriumZeily Nurachman, Alfredo Kono, Ocky Karna Radjasa, Dessy NataliaProblem statement: Bacteria from the surface of the tropical marine hard coral Acropora sp. were screened for producing raw-starch-degrading-α-amylase. Approach: Based on its 16s rDNA sequence, a bacterium that produced the highest amylolitic activity was identified as Bacillus amyloliquifaciens ABBD. The bacterial isolate secreted a α-amylase extracellularly and then the enzyme was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 9,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of a Novel Highly Thermostable and Extremely Thermophilic Alkalitolerant Amylase from Hyperthermophilic Bacillus Strain HUTBS71Farouk Al-Quadan, Hazem Akel, Rasha NatshiProblem statement: This study reported the purification and characterization of a novel highly thermostable alkaline amylase from a newly isolated Bacillus strain HUTBS71. Approach: The enzyme was purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Results: Maximum amylase activity (72 U mL-1) was obtained at 100°C after 10 min of incubation. The enzyme was purified 24 fold … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxic and Antimicrobial Potential of Actinomycete Species Saccharopolyspora salina VITSDK4 Isolated from the Bay of Bengal Coast of IndiaK. Suthindhiran, K. KannabiranProblem statement: Although the diversity of marine Actinobacteria have been studied and biotechnologically exploited throughout the world, the studies on marine actinobacteria in Indian peninsula are largely unexplored. Of 9 maritime states in India, only 4 states have been extensively studied for the diversity of actinobacteria. Further, the studies on bioactive actinomycetes from saline soil are very scanty. In the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectroosmotic Phenomena in Organic SoilsAfshin Asadi, Bujang B.K. Huat, M. M. Hassim et al.Organic soils or peat represent an accumulation of disintegrated plant remains which have been preserved under condition of incomplete aeration and high water content. In order to develop a fundamental understanding of electroosmotic phenomena in peat, initially microelectrophoresis studies were carried out to conceptualize the electrokinetic phenomena. Then electroosmosis experiments were conducted on rigid cube samples containing 0.0001 M NaCl-water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Salivary Glands α-amylase In Wheat Bug Eurygaster maura (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae)Mohammad Mehrabadi, Ali R. Bandaniα-amylase activity in the salivary glands of Eurygaster maura was determined by biochemical experiments. Some of adult insect was collected and their salivary glands isolated and characterized. Enzyme samples from salivary glands of adults were prepared by the method of Cohen with slight modifications. α-Amylase activity was assayed based on Bernfeld method by the dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) procedure. The activity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing of α-Amylase Activity of Midgut in Wheat Bug Eurygaster mauraMohammad Mehrabadi, Ali R. BandaniTo determine of α-amylase activity in the midgut of Eurygaster maura, some of adult insect was collected and their gut isolated and characterized. Enzyme samples from midguts of adults were prepared by the method of Cohen with slight modifications. α-Amylase activity was assayed based on Bernfeld method by the dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) procedure. The activity of α-amylase in midgut was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Putative Serine protease from Larval Midgut of Red Palm Weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Partial Purification and Biochemical CharacterizationAhmed Al Jabr, Mahmoud Abo-El-SaadA putative serine protease was isolated and partially purified from larval midgut of red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) using anion exchange chromatography, DE-52. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of this protease showed that the major band has a molecular weight of approximately 24 kDa corresponding to the same molecular weight of mammalian trypsin. In addition, zymography … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Shot Peening and Polishing on the Pitting Corrosion Resistance of Stainless SteelOmar Badran, Naser Kloub, Musa Musa Al-TalAn experimental work was performed to study one of the major problems encountered in industry (i.e., pitting corrosion), which cost the industrial world billions of dollars every year. Stainless Steel 304L sheets were used in the present study, the main reason for using stainless steel is their corrosion resistance and it is the most widely used in process industries, but … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,328 accessesView PDFCite
