Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Approach to Modelling of Flood Hazards in the Rapidly Growing City of Osogbo, Osun State, NigeriaSuleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Oluchi Christiana Onuoha, Komolafe Akinola Adesuji et al.In recent times, the swift and uncoordinated urban expansion in the medium sized city of Osogbo has increasingly encroached on the environmental sensitive areas. This uncoordinated exploitation of the ecological fragile areas for urban development has triggered urban flooding, which poses serious threat to human lives and properties in the city. This study therefore utilized geospatial technologies to generate flood … …Space Science International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 13,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth of Bone Marrow Derived Osteoblast-Like Cells into Coral Implant Scaffold: Preliminary Study on Malaysian CoralK. A. AL-SalihiProblem statement: Biomaterial fabrication in Malaysia started as a consequence of the demand for cheaper implant materials. Various biomaterials have been developed utilizing local resources like Malaysian coral. Locally processed Malaysian coral need to be complemented with proper evaluation and testing including toxicology, biocompatibility, mechanical properties, physicochemical characterization and in vivo testing. The present study was carried out to assess … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanoceramic Matrices: Biomedical ApplicationsWilli Paul, Chandra P. SharmaNatural bone consisted of calcium phosphate with nanometer-sized needle-like crystals of approximately 5-20 nm width by 60 nm length. Synthetic calcium phosphates and Bioglass are biocompatible and bioactive as they bond to bone and enhance bone tissue formation. This property is attributed to their similarity with the mineral phase of natural bone except its constituent particle size. Calcium phosphate ceramics … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstruction and Application of a Statistical Test for Coefficient of Variation on Normal DistributionsSolly Matshonisa Seeletse, Gezani Richman MiyambuIn this study a novel statistical test is derived for the Coefficient of Variation (CV) under normal distributions. This is a newly derived test with value to engineering sciences in aspects of production of accurate items. The CV can measure the precision of a measuring instrument, among other applications. In order to determine instrument reliability, start by generating measures using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 11 Nov 2017 · 7,853 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMarket Demand and Production Capacity Expansion of Hydrogen Peroxide in BangladeshMohammad Rafiqul Islam, Mohammad Khairul Islam SarkarThe work on production capacity expansion of hydrogen peroxide plants is part of an extensive research. In this research, the expansion of hydrogen peroxide plant, including the local current production and market demands of hydrogen peroxide has been highlighted. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is one of the basic chemicals. The market size of hydrogen peroxide in Bangladesh has been ever bigger … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 23 May 2017 · 11,350 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn silico Analysis of three Committed-Steps Involved in Triterpenoid Biosynthesis from Ganoderma lucidumXiaorong Shui, Xiaozhong Lan, Wei LeiGanoderma lucidum is widely considered as one of the most valuable Traditional Chinese Medicines, with various bioactive constituents and pharmaceutical effects. Triterpenoids are important effective ingredients of G. lucidum, which are synthesized mainly through the mevalonate pathway. In this study, we aimed to characterize and analyze three committed-step enzymes of the mevalonate pathway, 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A Reductase (HMGR), Farnesyl Diphosphate Synthase … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2016 · 7,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDialectic Form Finding of Structurally Integrated Adaptive StructuresL. Rhode-Barbarigos, V. Charpentier, S. Adriaenssens, O. BaverelStructural engineering, prompted by advances in mechanics and computing as well as design principles such as sustainability and resilience, is evolving towards adaptive structures. Adaptive structures are structures that use active components to change shape and properties in response to their environment and/or to their users' desires. Form-found structures, such as tensegrity and shell structures, can be designed to accommodate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Jul 2015 · 7,853 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bacterial Chromosomal Sequence and Related IssuesThi Huyen Phan, Duc Luong NguyenThere has been a rapid increasing in the number of bacterial genomes that are completely sequenced recently. However, nucleotide arrangement in bacterial chromosome is still not clear, though it is known that the chromosomal strand is symmetric as a whole but asymmetric locally. The unequal distribution of adenine and thymine as well as cytosine and guanine in the local genomic … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2013 · 13,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroduction, Classification and Applications of Smart Materials: An OverviewSusmita KamilaSmart materials are common name for a wide group of different substances. The general feature of all of them is the fact that one or more properties might be significantly altered under controlled condition. The present age is considered to be the smart materials era. Earlier, smart material was defined as the material, which responds to its environments in a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 13,089 accessesView PDFCite
