Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Opium Poppy (Papaver somniferum) GermplasmHari Shanker Acharya, Vimal SharmaProblem statement: The medicinal value of opium poppy (2n = 22, Papaver somniferum L.) is due to presence of more than two dozen alkaloids. The genetic origin and diversity of cultivars used in the breeding collection is not fully known. To evaluate the genetic diversity of the 24 germplasm currently cultivated in the state to provide genetic information about heterogeneity, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Some Pesticide Residues in Cauliflower by High Performance Liquid ChromatographySheheli Islam, Nazneen Afrin, Mohammad Shawkat Hossain et al.Problem statement: Increased use of chemicals on vegetables started gaining momentum and continued its up-trend in Bangladesh. Wide spread use of pesticides in agriculture concern of residue accumulation, which may remain in food and agricultural environment causing concern of human health and risking ecological balance. Attempt made to ensure that their applications were correct and safe and result in no … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Robust Rescaled Moment Test for Normality in RegressionMd. Sohel Rana, Habshah Midi, A.H.M. Rahmatullah ImonProblem statement: Most of the statistical procedures heavily depend on normality assumption of observations. In regression, we assumed that the random disturbances were normally distributed. Since the disturbances were unobserved, normality tests were done on regression residuals. But it is now evident that normality tests on residuals suffer from superimposed normality and often possess very poor power. Approach: This study … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,260 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Manufacturing Stresses to Die Attach Film Performance In Quad Flatpack No-Lead Stacked Die PackagesM. F. Rosle, I. Abdullah, S. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Repeated heat cure during assembly processes affected the Die Attach Film (DAF) material properties and the effectiveness touched area that leads to weak die bonding and delamination. Suitable die attached condition and DAF material selection had been evaluated to achieve required reliability performance in the manufacturing of the 3D Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) stacked die package. Approach: During … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Strongly Coupled Linear Elliptic Systems with Application to Otolith Membrane DistortionI.K. YoussefProblem Statement: In this research, the author discussed the problems associated with the approximation of the mixed derivative terms appearing in strongly coupled linear elliptic systems by the finite difference method over irregular domains. To avoid the appearance of mixed derivative terms the author introduced a reformulation for the system through introducing a new dependent variable which adds one supplementary … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Photooxidation Pathways of Dicarboxylic Acids in Atmospheric DropletsL.M. Yang, L.E. Yu, M.B. RayLow molecular weight (LMW) dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) have received increasing attention because of their hygroscopic properties and capability of acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). Based on the concentration profiles of intermediates identified during laboratory photooxidation of C7-C9 DCAs in a liquid-phase reaction system, chemometric analyses were conducted to examine the degradation pathways of DCAs for the formation of secondary … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlock Methods based on Newton Interpolations for Solving Special Second Order Ordinary Differential Equations DirectlyYap Lee Ken, Fudziah Ismail, Mohamed Suleiman, Suriah Md. AminThis study focused mainly on the derivation of the 2 and 3-point block methods with constant coefficients for solving special second order ordinary differential equations directly based on Newton-Gregory backward interpolation formula. The performance of the new methods was compared with the conventional 1-point method using a standard set of test problems. Numerical results were presented to illustrate the effectiveness … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Estimation of Logistic Probability Model of Binomial Data: Simulation ComparisonZaki. J. Al- Sarraf, Faris M. Al- Athari, Hilmi F. KittaniProperties of various types of estimators of the regression coefficients in linear logistic regression models were considered. The estimators include those based on maximum likelihood, minimum chi-square and weighted least squares. The results of a large scale simulation investigation evaluating the moment properties of the estimators are presented for the case of logistic model with a single explanatory variable. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,690 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Multicollinearity on Power Rates of the Ordinary Least Squares EstimatorsO.O. Alabi, Kayode Ayinde, T.O. OlatayoInferences on the parameter estimates of Ordinary Least Square (OLS) estimator in regression model when regressors exhibit multicollinearity is a problem in that large standard errors of the regression coefficients which cause low t-statistic value often result into the acceptance of the null hypothesis. This paper, therefore, makes efforts to investigate the effect of multicollinearity on the power rates of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
