Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Water Quality Index of Otamiri and Oramiriukwa RiversA.N. Amadi, P.I. Olasehinde, E.A. Okosun, J. YisaProblem statement: The impact of anthropogenic activities on Otamiri and Oramiriukwa Rivers as a result of the increasing rate of urbanization in Owerri, Nigeria is of a great concern due to the fact that water from these rivers is the source of water distributed for public use. These rivers are of particular importance in the study of surface water pollution … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPermanent Urethrostomy for Treatment of Caprine HypospadiasOmid Azari, Ehsanollah Sakhaee, Ladan EmadiHypospadias, a more extreme form of congenital urethral defect, is seen in young phenotypically male goats. In hypospadias, the urethra remains open on the ventral surface of the penis and is visible externally on the preputial midline. Problem statement: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical treatment outcome in hypopadiac kids. Approach: Thirty six male goat kids … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Ammonia Loss from Urea by Mixing with Humic and Fulvic Acids Isolated from CoalAmeera Abdul Reeza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Nik Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: Ammonia volatilization is a major pathway for nitrogen loss from surface applied urea. While all top-dressed ammonia and ammonium based N fertilizers can volatilize, the potential loss is greatest with urea and fluids containing urea. As much as 20-50% of N applied to soils is lost through volatilization alone. Thus, the objective of this laboratory study was to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHot Machining of Hardened Steels with Coated Carbide InsertsM. A. Lajis, A. K.M.N. Amin, A. N.M. Karim et al.Problem statement: The benefits of easier manufacture of hardened steel components can be substantial in terms of reduced machining costs and lead times compared to the traditional route involving machining of the annealed state followed by heat treatment, grinding/EDM and manual finishing. But machinability of hard material through conventional machining is hindered due to excessive wear of the cutting tools … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Groundwater and Surface Water Pollution at Mitm Area, Ibb City, YemenEsmail A. Sabahi, S. Abdul Rahim, W.Y. Wan Zuhairi et al.Groundwater and surface water samples were collected from Mitm area to study the possible impact of wastewater treatment percolation into the groundwater and surface water. The objective of the study is to assess the groundwater and surface water pollution due to wastewater treatment at Mitm area of Ibb city, in the Republic of Yemen. The concentrations of various physiochemical parameters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Landfill Leachate TreatmentsAbdulhussain A. Abbas, Guo Jingsong, Liu Zhi Ping et al.Problem Statement: Sanitary landfilling is the most common way to eliminate solid urban wastes. An important problem associated to landfills is the production of leachates. This study is a review of landfill leachate treatments. Approach: The advantages and disadvantages of the various existing leachate treatments discussed under the items: (i) Leachate channeling (combined treatment with domestic sewage, recycling) (ii) Biological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 13,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDoes Trichomes on the Plant Epidermic Surface Disturb Ants Locomotion?Danon Clemes Cardoso, Maykon Passos Cristiano, Lenise Cristina Moraes Vilela, Tiago de Arruda MartinsProblem Statement: Many morphological characteristics, both physical and chemical, are used in the defense against herbivores on plants. Trichomes are structures used by plants as physics defense and when associated with glands combine physics and chemistry defense. Many species of ants are herbivores and use leaves and seeds, others ants use Extra Floral Nectars as a food resource, and the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstracttNOX (ENOX2) Target for Chemosensitization-Low-Dose Responses in the Hormetic Concentration RangeD. James Morre, Sara Dick, Elena Bosneaga et al.An emerging concept of cancer chemotherapy is that of chemosensitization. Most often applied to the treatment of drug-resistance cancers, chemosensitization has utility when such cancers are rendered drug sensitive through treatment with the sensitizing agent. A particularly striking example of chemosensitization is that encountered with the synthetic isoflavene phenoxodiol where patients with taxane- and/or platinum-resistant ovarian carcinoma once again become … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,573 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReservoir Oscillations with Through FlowA.A. KhanThe two-reservoir problem with through flow is a common feature in wastewater treatment plants. The start of the through flow may cause water surface oscillations in the reservoirs and velocity variations in the connecting pipe during the initial unsteady phase that may adversely affect the operation and under certain conditions may cause overtopping of the upstream reservoir. The classical solution … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiamond Pressing on the Wear Resistance and the State of Heat Treated Alloy Steel SurfacesUbeidulla Al-QawabehaIn manufacturing processes, surfaces and their properties are as important as the bulk properties of the materials. Surface treatment is an important aspect of all manufacturing processes. It has been used to impart certain physical and mechanical properties, such as appearance, corrosion, friction, wear and fatigue resistance. Widely used methods of finishing treatment that create necessary parts with the given … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,105 accessesView PDFCite
