Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChamaemelum nobile L. Aqueous Extract Represses Endogenous Glucose Production and Improves Insulin Sensitivity in Streptozotocin-induced Diabetic MiceLemhadri Ahmed, Remy Burcelin, Thierry Sulpice, Mohamed EddouksThe present study was undertaken in order to evaluate the possible mechanisms of action involved in the hypoglycaemic activity of the aqueous extract of Chamaemelum nobile (CN) (20 mg kg-1). This study was carried out in multi low-dose streptozotocin-induced (MLDS) diabetic mice. Hypoglycaemic effect of CN was studied after both single and repeated oral administration of CN aqueous extract (20 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasuring the Costs of Production Based on Sizes of Farm Operation: A Study on Rice Farmers in Jessore District of BangladeshShaikh Moksadur Rahman, Jun TakedaThe quantity of rice production has increased regardless of the land operation size in recent years, but small and medium farmers still have a serious problem especially regarding the increasing cost involved in the production. As rice is the main crop, the condition of production, cost incurred in different inputs, purchasing nature of inputs and the source of production elements … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDeterminants of Technical Efficiency of Sugarcane Production among Small Holder Farmers in Lao PDRPoungchompu SupapornThis study was to examine technical efficiency in sugarcane production in Savannakhet, Lao PDR. A stochastic frontier production function was applied with the data collected from 110 sample farmers in 2012. The results reveal that cultivated area (p<0.01), hired labor (p<0.10) and capital (p<0.10) are the major significantly positive factors in the output of sugarcane. Mean of technical efficiency was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 3 Oct 2015 · 6,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStructural Optimization for Materially Informed Design to Robotic Production ProcessesH. Bier, S. MostafaviHyperbody’s materially informed Design-to-Robotic-Production (D2RP) processes for additive and subtractive manufacturing aim to achieve performative porosity in architecture at various scales. An extended series of D2RP experiments aiming to produce prototypes at 1:1 scale wherein design materiality has been approached from both digital and physical perspectives were recently implemented. At digital materiality level, a customized computational design framework for compression … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 11 Sep 2015 · 9,097 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInulinase Production by Penicillium citrinum ESS in Submerged and Solid-State CulturesCynthia Lafuente-Castaneda, Gabriela Martinez, Juan C. Contreras-Esquivel et al.Problem statement: This work reports the Penicillium citrinum ESS strain as a new source of inulinase (2,1-β-D fructanhydrolase, E.C. 3.2.1.7). Approach: The enzyme was produced in both, Solid-State (SSC) and Submerged Culture (SmC) using a basal medium added either with inulin or sucrose (5 gL-1). Results: The culture grew faster in SmC than in SSC with both carbon sources; however, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2012 · 8,388 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Biodiesel Production from Roast Thai Sausage Oil by Transesterification ReactionWasan Theansuwan, Kitrichai TriratanasirichaiProblem statement: This research is to study the feasibility of biodiesel production from roast Thai sausage oil by transesterification process. Approach: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of potassium Hydroxide (K2OH3) as heterogeneous catalyst (3-9% (wt) of the feedstock) and methanol-oil molar ratio (3:1-12:1) on the yield and properties (flash point and fire point) of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2011 · 8,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleManagerial Administration of Farming Machinery for Rice ProductionYosphatrachai Phuangpee, Pradtana YossuckProblem statement: This research was conducted due to an increase of agricultural machinery cost for rice production (46.00%) of farmers in Phichit province. Based on an analysis of cost reduction using the method of John Deere, it was found that this may decrease from 46.00-28.50% of the total cost. Thus, there was a question how to mange the agricultural machinery. … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
