Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCan Contract Marketing Motivate Farmers to Go Organic? Measuring the Moderation Effect of Contract MarketingGolnaz Rezai, Mad Nasir Shamsudin, Zainal Abidin Mohamed, Ting Jenn LingThe demand for organic food is growing in Malaysia due to consumer concerns for food safety, sustainable development, and urban expansion. However, the share of farmers engaged in this type of agriculture in Malaysia is notably low with only 72 (0.02%) organic vegetable farmers out of a total of 272,000 farmers in the country. Therefore, it is crucial to understand … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2016 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDevelopment of a Magnetorheological Finishing Machine for Small-Bore Part of Irregular Shape and Experimental StudyWang Tingzhang, Chen Mingjun, Liu Henan, Xu JiangMagnetorheological finishing machine tool with small ball-end permanent-magnet polishing head is proposed as a method to solve the problem that small-bore parts of irregular shape with small curvature radius concave surface cannot be polished by traditional magnetorheological finishing machine tool. The four-axis linkage magnetorheological finishing machine tool with modular open numerical system and easy-operating man-machine interactive interface is developed. Then … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 26 Jun 2015 · 7,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesControl of Subterranean Termite Coptotermes Curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) by Entomopathogen Metarhizium Anisopliae Var. Anisopliae Cultured in Liquid State FermentationVei-Ting Nyam, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Jie-Hung P. KingSolid state fermentation has been used for mass production of Metarhizium anisopliae many years ago. However, solid state fermentation was time consuming, costly and unable to produce in large amount. We examined the suitability of liquid state fermentation to mass produce M. anisopliae and the effect of culture medium on fungal pathogenicity. Three different liquid medium selected for this study … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2015 · 7,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA SHORT INTERFERING RNA MOLECULAR BEACON FOR THE ATTENUATION OF MYCOBACTERIAL INFECTIONRemo George, Kathy Nugent, Norman Bolus et al.The ability of the pathogen Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB) to invade and survive within macrophages of granulomas is attributed to the product of the Mammalian Cell Entry (MCE) operon whose gene, mce4A, encodes a cholesterol transporter that transports host lipids into the bacterium that allows the bacterium to survive during chronic infection. Here, we proposed and tested the hypothesis that a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2014 · 7,776 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPOWER QUALITY DIAGNOSIS IN DISTRIBUTION NETWORK USING WAVELET TRANSFORMH. H. Goh, H. L. Ting, Q. S. Chua et al.Power quality is one of the most concerns to the electric power suppliers, equipment manufacturers and the users of various electrical and electronic equipments. This paper presents the use of a continuous wavelet transform to detect and analyse voltage sags and swells. Characteristics which include duration and magnitude of the investigated signals are measured. Unlike other approaches where the detection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2013 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRnai Induced Wing Modification in Leon Mutant Drosophila: A Developmental AnalysisSandeep Satapathy, Cheng Ting ChienThe precision of growth of an animal is meticulously regulated by extrinsic and intrinsic factors, with focus on maintenance of organismal homeostasis. The clue to change in physiology or metabolism of an organism, at times can be derived from the changes in phenotypes. In the Drosophila melanogaster model system, GAL 4-overexpressed RNAi driver males (Mini-White Marker), targeted against specific genes, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 6,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTransformation or Transgression? Institutional Habitus andWorking Class Student IdentityTina Byrom, Nic LightfootProblem statement: Whilst evidence continues to highlight disparity in Higher Education (HE) participation rates across social groups, there continues to be small numbers of young people from social groups 4-7 choosing to go to university. However, university experience varies across the different social groups and differing social positions appear to influence the higher education institution students apply to and secure … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Feb 2012 · 9,619 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesApplying Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process and Grey Relation Analysis to Evaluate the Supply Chain Performance of the Wafer Testing HouseYun-Chin Chen, Jun-Yuan Kuo, Bang-Ting LuoProblem statement: In the information age, the process of E-Commerce (EC) operates quickly and the present enterprises of Taiwan have to face the Free Cross-Strait Market (FCSM) with Mainland China, which will definitely change the model as well as the performance of the supply chain. Hence, this study focuses on the issue of supply chain performance evaluation of the wafer … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 27 Oct 2011 · 6,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAn in vitro Assessment on the Efficacy of Clay-Based Formulated Cells of Pseudomonas Isolate UTAR EPA2 for Petrol DegradationA. S.Y. Ting, M. T. Fang, C. S. TeeProblem statement: Application of free-cell forms is usually impractical to achieve satisfactory bioremediative effect because the microbes are encumbered by the biotic and abiotic stresses from the environment. Approach: In this study, a hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium (Pseudomonas isolate UTAR EPA2) was formulated with various combinations of formulative materials, comprising of clay-based carrier materials such as Bentonite (B) and Kaolin (K), enrichment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Aug 2010 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesFace Biometrics Based on Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant AnalysisLih-Heng Chan, Sh-Hussain Salleh, Chee-Ming TingProblem statement: In facial biometrics, face features are used as the required human traits for automatic recognition. Feature extracted from face images are significant for face biometrics system performance. Approach: In this thesis, a framework of facial biometric was designed based on two subspace methods i.e., Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). First, PCA is used for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
