Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy the Effects of Ramadan Fasting on the Serum Glucose and Lipid Profile among Healthy Jordanian StudentsKama Mohmoud Saleh MansiRamadan is the holiest month in the Islamic calendar and Muslims fast during this month. We designed this study to evaluate the effect of Ramadan fasting on plasma lipids profile and serum glucose among healthy Jordanian students. Ramadan fasting entails major changes in sleep pattern, physical activity and eating habits, which may cause changes in metabolism both in health and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 8,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Administration of Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) on Some Hematological Values of Alloxan-induced Diabetic RatsKamal M.S. MansiThis study was designed to evaluate the role of alpha- melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) on heart rate and some hematological values in alloxan induced diabetic rats. 40 male white rats were divided into four experimental groups: control, diabetic, α-MSH-treated and α-MSH-treated diabetic. At the end of the experimental period (3weeks), animals in all four groups were fasted for 12 hrs … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Temperature and pH on the Growth of Sargassum linearifolium and S. podacanthum in Potassium-Fortified Inland Saline WaterHa Thi Thu Bui, Trong Quoc Luu, Ravi FotedarThis study tested the effects of temperature and pH on water quality and the growth of Sargassum linearifolium and S. podacanthum in potassium-fortified Inland Saline Water (ISW) of Western Australia (WA), at two levels of pH (low pH range of 5.5-6.5 and ambient pH 7.0-8.2) and two levels of temperature (high temperature 26-27°C and ambient room temperature of 20-22°C) in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 6 Apr 2018 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Properties Study of PCM@ECD BilayerYan Zhao, Heng Zhang, Yanfei Zhao et al.This study reports the fabrication of a core-shell active bilayer membrane (PCM@ECD) via a combined tape-casting and layer-transfer methodology. The inner core layer comprised Pectin-Chitosan (PC) microcapsules, synthesized by complex coacervation, encapsulating Orange Peel Essential Oil (OPEOM) with an embedding efficiency of 83.08%. The outer shell layer consisted of Ethyl Cellulose (EC) doped with zinc-doped carbon dots (Zn-CDs, average size: … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 May 2026 · 1,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Vehicle Insurance Claim and Settlement Procedures Using IOT Sensors on a Blockchain-Based PlatformPreeti Sharma, Meenakshi Malik, Chander Prabha et al.The conventional vehicle insurance claim and settlement landscape is characterised by significant inefficiencies, including cumbersome claim submissions, arbitrary damage assessments, and susceptibility to fraudulent activities. These problems lead to a longer processing time, higher operational cost to the insurers and a reduction in policyholder satisfaction. To address these important challenges, this study proposes a streamlined vehicle insurance claims system that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2026 · 1,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Channel Estimation Technique for Complexity Reduction of Least Minimum Mean Square ErrorHany Mohamed El-Ansary, Hussein Ghouz, Ashraf Mamdouh Aziz, Gamal MabroukChannel estimation technique is to predict the frequency response of the radio channel using pilot signal. Channel estimation technique is important part of LTE receiver design. Such technique is used to recover the transmitted signal correctly and to know how the channel conditions are changed over frequency and time. Each channel estimator has a specified complexity computed according to its … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach Based Medical Image Retrieval System Using Feature Optimized Classification Similarity FrameworkYogapriya Jaganathan, Ila VennilaFor the past few years, massive upgradation is obtained in the pasture of Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) for effective utilization of medical images based on visual feature analysis for the purpose of diagnosis and educational research. The existing medical image retrieval systems are still not optimal to solve the feature dimensionality reduction problem which increases the computational complexity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 6 Jun 2013 · 7,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance, Analysis of Filtering Schedule Using Deblocking Filter for the Reduction of Block Artifacts from MPEQ Compressed Document ImagesM. Anto Bennet, I. Jacob RaglendProblem statement: The visual effects of blocking artifacts can be reduce by using deblocking filter. Also with out smoothing the natural edges,the perceived quality of video sequence can be enchanced. This study propose a method to remove blocking artifacts in low bit-rate block based video coding. Approach: The proposed algorithm has two separate filtering modes, which are selected by pixel … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 8 Aug 2012 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Performance of a Dual Header Pulse Interval Modulation in the Presence of Artificial Light Interferences in an Indoor Optical Wireless Communications Channel with Wavelet DenoisingS. Rajbhandari, Z. Ghassemlooy, M. AngelovaProblem statement: Similar to other baseband modulation schemes, the performance of the Dual Header Pulse Interval Modulation (DH-PIM) is adversely affected by Artificial Light Interferences (ALI) in an indoor Optical Wireless Communications (OWC) channel. Approach: The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) based denoising is studied for reducing the effect of the ALI. Computer simulation is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 18 Jan 2012 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
