Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInhibition of Sphingolipid Biosynthesis in Cultured Cells Enhances the Oligosaccharide Production from Exogenous Artifical SubstrateTomohisa Kato, Maria Carmelita Z. Kasuya, Kenichi HatanakaThe effect of fumonisin B1 which is an inhibitor of ceramide synthesis on saccharide elongation of dodecyl β-lactoside (Lac-C12), which is the analogue of lactosyl ceramide (LacCer), in mouse melanoma B16 cells and African green-monkey kidney (Vero) cells was examined. By adding fumonisin B1 in the culture medium used for glycosylation of Lac-C12, mouse melanoma B16 cells synthesized GM3-type analogue … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIrrigated and Non-Irrigated Wheat Classification Based on Cultivation Calendar by IHS AlgorithmAshourloo Davood, Matkan Ali Akbar, Aghighi Hossain et al.In order to extract the wheat the bi-temporal Spot images were ordered based on cultivation calendar of wheat and other crops. As the crops reflection properties showed many variations, for precise classification many signatures are needed. Appropriate bands for classification were selected by divergence algorithm. These bands converted to IHS and for recognizing the reflection changes in the cultivated areas, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoplankton Diversity as Indicator of Water Quality for Fish CultivationArunava Pradhan, Pranami Bhaumik, Sumana Das et al.Waste water fed fisheries are a common feature in different parts of the world. Yet not all work as efficiently as those operating at East Calcutta Wetland for more than 70 years now. The objective of this study is to unravel the reason for the markedly greater efficiency of the Bheris in fish production compared to other water bodies like … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCocaine: A Catalyst for Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Associated DementiaNavneet K. Dhillon, Milind Gadgil, Andy Rahardja et al.Injection drug use has been recognized as a major risk factor for AIDS from the outset of the epidemic. Cocaine, one of the most widely abused drugs in the United States can both impair the functions of macrophages and CD4+ lymphocytes and also activate HIV-1 expression in these cells. Cocaine is a multifactorial agent that acts globally to impair the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Tactile Sensor for Detection of Skin Surface Morphology and its Application in Telemedicine SystemsRoozbeh Khodambashi, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli Golpaygani et al.We proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of determining the surface morphology of skin lesions. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. One of the coils acts as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Study of Power Control Radio Resource Management Over WLANsZ. I. Dafalla, M. B.R. MurthyWireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) based on IEEE 802.11 standard have been rapidly growing. With limitations of the WLAN standard and rapid increase in wireless application demand, the air interface acts as bottleneck even in high-speed WLAN standards such as IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g with expected data transmission rates of up to 54 Mbps. To improve the overall performance of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn silico Modeling of α1A-Adrenoceptor: Interaction of its Normal and Mutated Active Sites with Noradrenaline as well as its Agonist and AntagonistRamchandran Vijayan, Naidu Subbarao, Birendra Nath MallickNoradrenaline, like most other neurotransmitters, acts through various adrenoceptor subtypes. The structure and active site of adrenoceptors for the binding of noradrenaline were unknown, however, such information are crucial for understanding the molecular mechanism of action of neurotransmitters, including noradrenaline, in health and disease as well as for drug designing. In this in silico study, we modeled the α1A-adrenoceptor; a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgent-Based Design for E-learning EnvironmentKhadidja Harbouche, Mahieddine DjoudiWe presented an agent-based e-learning environment. Our aim was to allow many users to interact collectively and intelligently with the environment. In this cooperation model, human users and artificial agents carry out tasks in the learners’ service. We define the internal structure of our kernel supposed to work within Internet/Intranet settings. Design was structured in three parts: individual learning space, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistological Study of the Caecal Tonsil in the Cecum of 4- 6 Months of Age White Leghorn ChicksM. Rezaian, S. HamediCecum, the largest part of chicken’s large intestine, has an important role in liquid absorption and cellulose digestion. It acts as a defensive organ as well due to the presence of large masses of diffuse and nodular lymphatic tissue in lamina propria and sub mucosa. The cecal tonsil activity has been proved to be depended on the activity of bursa … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTask Collaborative Resolution Tool for Elearning EnvironmentSamir Zidat, Mahieddine DjoudiIn this article, we are interested in the tasks collaborative resolution in elearning context, and in the use of information technology to support this activity. A part of this article is devoted to the modeling of the activity of tasks collaborative resolution. Then, we suggest an approach for the automatic perception of the good quality of the users’ contribution.
