Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM BLACK COWPEA AND ITS APPLICATIONAnuchita Moongngarm, Sirinapa Sasanam, Watcharee Pinsiri et al.Black cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) is high in protein, which makes it suitable for use as a protein supplement in food products. However, direct application of cowpea flour in food products is limited as it may affect some quality aspects of foods. Protein concentrate and isolate are a form of the protein that is gaining interest in industry. Therefore, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Nov 2014 · 6,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF METHYL ESTER OF COTTON SEED OIL BLEND WITH DIESEL ON CI ENGINEK. Vijayaraj, A. P. SathiyagnanamPetroleum based fuels worldwide have not only resulted in the rapid depletion of conventional energy sources, but have also caused severe air pollution. The search for an alternate fuel has led to many findings due to which a wide variety of alternative fuels are available at our disposal now. The existing studies have revealed the use of vegetable oils for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Oct 2014 · 6,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPOLYMER COMPOSITE MANUFACTURING USING A PULTRUSION PROCESS: A REVIEWA. M. Fairuz, S. M. Sapuan, E. S. Zainudin, C. N.A. JaafarPultrusion is the one of technologies to fabricate the polymer composites to be used in many industries such as in aerospace, automotive and construction industries. The high performance pultruded products that are produced by this technique offer high fibre content of at least 70%. In order to produce high quality pultruded profiles, there are variables such as fibre impregnation, resin … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Oct 2014 · 9,656 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTUDY OF DYNAMIC MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FUSED DEPOSITION MODELLING PROCESSED ULTEM MATERIALAdhiyamaan Arivazhagan, Ammar Saleem, S. H. Masood et al.Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), a renowned Rapid Prototyping (RP) process, has been successfully implemented in several industries to fabricate concept models and prototypes for rapid manufacturing. This study furnishes terse notes about the material damping properties of FDM made ULTEM samples considering the effect of FDM process parameters. Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) is carried out using DMA 2980 equipment to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2014 · 8,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A BACTERIAL CULTURE SYSTEM USING A PAPER PLATFORM TO ACCOMMODATE MEDIA AND AN INK-JET PRINTING TO DISPENSE BACTERIATithimanan Srimongkon, Takuya Ishida, Kiyohiko Igarashi, Toshiharu EnomaeGenerally, bacterial culture is performed manually and is subject to error. Here, we created a novel, well-ordered and reliable system for dispensing bacteria microscopically by using paper and an ink-jet printer for controlled patterning. For paper to accommodate a culture medium, hydrophobic/hydrophilic patterns were incorporated onto the paper by immersing paper in a toluene solution of polystyrene and drying for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2014 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Gum Arabic for Industries and Human HealthEqbal Dauqan, Aminah AbdullahGum Arabic, a natural polysaccharide derived from exudates of Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal trees, is a commonly used food hydrocolloid. The highlight of this study was to review the utilization of gum Arabic for industries and human health. Gum Arabic has a unique combination of excellent emulsifying properties and low solution viscosity. These properties make gum Arabic very useful … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 10,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Surface Energy to evaluate Adhesion of Bituminous Crack Sealants to AggregatesEllie H. Fini, Imad L. Al-Qadi, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Jean-Francois MassonProblem statement: The performance of bituminous sealants in the field is partly controlled by properties and strength of the sealant-aggregate interface. The thermodynamic work of adhesion represents energy required for reversible separation of the two materials at the interface. The study of fracture includes the energy required for both reversible and irreversible processes during separation. Excess of work of facture … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Evaporation in Degrading the "Oil Lakes"Al Rashed Ahamad, Colin BarkerProblem statement: Oil Spills are degraded by aerobic bacteria, water washing, evaporation and oxidation. In the absence of water the first two of these processes cannot operate. This is the situation in the low rainfall environment of the Kuwaiti desert where oil lakes still persist 20 years after the initial spills. The oils contain longer chain n-alkanes but have lost … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,747 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComposition-Explicit Distillation Curves of Waste Lubricant Oils and Resourced Crude Oil: A Diagnostic for Re-Refining and EvaluationLisa Starkey Ott, Beverly L. Smith, Thomas J. BrunoProblem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a composition-explicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved with a sampling approach that allows precise qualitative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Enzyme Supplementation on Performance, Carcass characteristics, Carcass Composition and Some Blood Parameters of Broiler ChickenH. HajatiProblem statement: Endogenous enzymes of broilers cannot adequately digest nonstarch polysaccharides and subsequently the ingestion of high levels of soluble NSP leads to increased digesta viscosity and reduced nutrient digestibility and absorption. Supplementation of NSPs degrading enzymes may remove the anti nutritive effects of NSPs and release some nutrients (starch, protein) from these elements. Therefore, in a completely randomized design … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,649 accessesView PDFCite
