Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Nutritional Quality of Wheat (Triticum aestivum) by Metabolic Engineering of Isoflavone PathwayAhmed Mohamed El-Shehawi, Abdelmegid Ibrahim Fahmi, Mona Mohamed Elseehy, Hesham Ahmed NagatyIsoflavones are large group of secondary metabolites produced in legumes such as soybeans. They have essential biological functions as nutraceutical and health functions for human. They are involved in plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing organisms and plant competition (allelopathy). In this report, isoflavonoids were expressed in wheat (Triticum aestivum) via introducing the key enzymes … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN IMPROVED DESIGN OF REVERSIBLE BINARY TO BINARY CODED DECIMAL CONVERTER FOR BINARY CODED DECIMAL MULTIPLICATIONPraveena Murugesan, Thanushkodi KeppanagounderReversible logic gates under ideal conditions produce zero power dissipation. This factor highlights the usage of these gates in optical computing, low power CMOS design, quantum optics and quantum computing. The growth of decimal arithmetic in various applications as stressed the need to propose the study on reversible binary to BCD converter which plays a greater role in decimal multiplication … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2013 · 7,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract“BUT HOW CAN I ACHIEVE MY DREAM IN THIS VILLAGE?” BLEAK EDUCATIONAL HOPES AND ASPIRATIONS OF CHILDREN IN AGORTIKOPE VILLAGEEunice Abbey, Judith Kafui DarkeyThis was a study conducted to identify the challenges that children in rural areas encounter in education. Most of these challenges affect the educational aspirations and dreams of these children. These issues were explored in group and in-depth interviews with the children, parents and teachers at Agortikope village. Some of the major issues discovered centered on financial difficulties, inadequate learning … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 1 Nov 2013 · 7,637 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStability Analysis of Southern Slope of Chenmenshan Open Pit Copper MineMohammed Mnzool, Ling Wan, Zuoan WeiChengmenshan Copper SulphurMine, one of the of the large-scale open pit mine in China, the engineering geology and hydrogeology in the Southern slope of the mine is very complicated and the contact plane between two kinds of sandstone’s form soft-weak layer. Field investigations and reports by operators demonstrated that some instability problems might occur in the southern slope which is … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Leptobarbus hoevenii in Control Environment at Natural LakesMohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mushrifah Idris, Mohd Ekhwan TorimanLeptobarbus hoevenii or its common name Ikan Jelawat is a high-value fish from family Cyprinidae, genus Leptobarbus are omnivorous fish that can grow up to 60 cm long. Due to human activities and the time change, this species has been depleted in Lake Chini. As an initiative from the Malaysian government, a conservation project for this species has been carried … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2013 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCompressive and Shear Analysis of Rubber Block Under Large StrainK. Sridharan, R. SivaramakrishnanThe Elastomeric materials have found use in a wide range of applications, including hoses, tires, gaskets, seals, vibration isolators, bearings and dock fenders. The analysis of rubber blocks for its compression and shear behavior has been carried out using the imaging techniques. The dynamic stressing and its associated change in shape of the rubber blocks during large compression are very … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 18 Jun 2013 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Seasonal Physicochemical Parameters in River UsmaA. I. Ugwu, R. J. WakawaGrowing populations may put stresses on natural waters by impairing both the quality of the water and the hydrological budget. Abuja, being relatively a new city and the new Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria, has scarce physicochemical data on its water resources that could assist in making robust decision in mitigating the impact of human societies on natural waters; which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 20 Sep 2012 · 9,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation and Implementation of Quasi Resonant DC-DC ConverterP. Parvathy, N. DevarajanProblem statement: A half-bridge LLC resonant converter with a voltage doubler rectifier has a simple structure and its Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) capability is excellent from zero to full load condition. But conduction loss is more due to high circulating energy thus reducing the system efficiency. Moreover a variable frequency control method makes the control circuits more complicated than those using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 29 Aug 2012 · 7,151 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReactive Power Optimization Using Quantum Particle Swarm OptimizationK. S. Chandragupta Mauryan, K. Thanushkodi, A. SakthisuganyaProblem statement: The problem of controlling a power system is not an easy task; it is subjected to various constraints. There are at risks of voltage instability problems due to highly stressed operating conditions caused by increased load demand and other constraints in the power system network.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptation to High Grain Diets Proceeds Through Minimal Immune System Stimulation and Differences in Extracellular Matrix Protein Expression in A Model of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis in Non-lactating Dairy CowsB. W. McBride, O. AlZahal, M. A. Steele, L. DionissopoulosProblem statement: Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) is a metabolic disorder affecting approximately 20% of all dairy cattle in North America. Although the presence of SARA has been described for some time, the etiology of the disorder remains uncertain. For example, many animals diagnosed with SARA seem to remodel and adapt their epithelium to accommodate the stresses imposed by SARA, but … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2012 · 8,124 accessesView PDFCite
