Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Continuous Vaginal Logger-Based Temperature Monitoring in Fever-Induced GiltsMariana Schmidt, Christian Ammon, Peter Schon et al.The aim of this study was to identify a low risk method to induce fever in gilts and to evaluate vaginal sensors for temperature monitoring. Therefore, a rhinitis atrophicans vaccine was used to induce fever to evaluate sensors and behavioral patterns. During 11 trials, two of four animals were injected with 2 mL of the vaccine Porcilis AR-T DF (Intervet) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2013 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Chitinolytic Bacteria in Alginate-Chitosan Encapsulation on Chili Seed Against Damping off Caused by Fusarium oxysporumDwi Suryanto, Affan Indarwan, Erman MunirOne alternative in biological control of plant pathogenic fungi is to provide biological agent inoculant in coated seed. This study was to evaluate potential control and viability of two chitinolytic bacteria, Enterobacter sp. BK15 and Bacillus sp. BK17 of alginate-chitosan encapsulation coated on chili seed against damping off caused by Fusarium oxysporum. Chili seed beads were stored at refrigerator and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2012 · 7,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Hydrogen Addition on Diesel Engine Operation and NOx Emission: A Thermodynamic StudyPrateep Chaisermtawan, Sathaporn Chuepeng, Sompop JarungthammachoteProblem statement: The worldwide increasing energy demand and the environmental problem due to greenhouse gas emission, especially produced from fossil fuel combustion, have promoted research work to solve these crises. Diesel engine has proven to be one of the most effective energy conversion systems. It is widely used for power generation, land vehicles and marine power plant. To reduce diesel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 4 Aug 2012 · 7,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLearning Equipment for the Flammability Limits of Liquefied Petroleum GasSiriratchanee Sirisawat, Supat PatvichaichodProblem statement: This article was developing learning equipment for flammability limit behavior which designed for study the relation of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and combustion. The equipment can be use as an instructional media for obviously experiment of combustion. Approach: The test chamber was designed by using the stainless as a structure. The mirror with safety film was used for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 11 Jul 2012 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Compressed Natural Gas Engine for Nitrogen Oxides ReductionP. M. Diaz, B. Durga PrasadProblem statement: This study describes the use of Reformer Gas (RG) to alter NOx emission in a CNG-fueled HCCI engine. Comparison with diesel, natural gas has a very high octane number (≈120) and high auto-ignition temperature (≈600°C). Composed mostly of methane, natural gas is the only common fuel to manifest relatively pure, single-stage combustion. Other fuels have stronger low-temperature reaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Control of a Greenhouse by Variation in Ventilation Rate using a Fuzzy Parallel Distributed Compensation Controller with an RST Regulator in Each RuleElyes Feki, Amine Chouchaine, Abdelkader MamiProblem statement: The greenhouse has uncontrollable inputs that affect its climate, which arises the difficulty to regulate its inside temperature. The solution can be found using a multi-system approach like the Takagi-Sugeno System from which a design of a Parallel Distributed Compensation (PDC) controller is performed. However, a stability problem arises and was negotiatesd in general based on a Lyapunov … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 27 Apr 2012 · 7,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Diurnally Cyclic Temperature on the Performance of a Continuous Mix Anaerobic DigesterAbdel E. Ghaly, Mariam T. Al HattabProblem statement: Concentrated livestock production is a major contributor to environmental problems through the production of large quantity of husks on relatively small land area. Anaerobic digestion represents a valuable means of cover by these husks into methane while reducing manure pollution problems. Methodology: An experimental apparatus, including data acquisition and control system, was developed and used to investigate the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,226 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Computer Use in Science and Technology Lesson on Success and Attitude TowardsCem O. Guzeller, Mustafa DogruProblem statement: Computer being indispensable in our daily lives came into use in all fields of education. Use of computer for education activities became mandatory. This research is an experimental research performed by use of computer in science and technology and is important in terms of serving science education. General purpose of this research is to reveal the effect of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Aug 2011 · 10,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of Zeolite A from By-Product of Aluminum Etching Process: Effects of Reaction Temperature and Reaction Time on Pore VolumeKanokorn Hussar, Sombat Teekasap, Nisakorn SomsukProblem statement: Increasing of the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere creates a global warming. Zeolite is used as CO2 absorbent. Approach: By-products from aluminum etching process, which carry a large amount of Al2O3 content, are useable as raw materials for synthesis zeolites type A using hydrogel process. A pore volume of zeolites is the key to achieve high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,836 accessesView PDFCite
