Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisinfection of Water using Supported Titanium Dioxide PhotocatalystsShamkumar Pandurang Deshmukh, Dattatray Krishna Dalavi, Yuvaraj Mohan HungeTiO2 based photocatalyst has potential material for disinfection of harmful pathogens as well as removal of organic compounds. The formation of reactive oxygen species is a key part for overall process but aggregation and band gap constraint explore a new dimension to use of support for propounding its physicochemical properties. Therefore, the modification of TiO2 using various support alters photocatalytic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2020 · 7,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Prescriptive Specialized Learning Management System for Academic Feedback towards Improved LearningAnnette van der Merwe, Tiny du Toit, Hennie KrugerThe dynamic nature of technological advances is causing changes in many fields and especially in tertiary education. Student numbers are increasing annually and institutions need to maintain education quality whilst ensuring student retention. A specialized learning management system (SLMS) was developed in this study that provides students with comprehensive feedback which will enable them to better manage their academic performance. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 24 Oct 2018 · 7,487 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 abstractAdiponectin mRNA Expression in the Cat (Felis domesticus)Angela L. Lusby, Stephen A. Kania, Joseph W. Bartges, Claudia A. KirkProblem statement: Adiponectin is a hormone expressed from adipose tissue in people, rodents and dogs. Adiponectin has anti-inflammatory action with beneficial effects on cardiovascular health and insulin sensitivity. With increasing fat mass, adiponectin concentrations paradoxically decrease. Adiponectin’s role in metabolism and diabetes mellitus is of interest in feline medicine because cats are susceptible to developing type II diabetes with weight … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Sustainability into Teaching and Research at the University of the South Pacific to Enhance Capacity for the Sustainable Development of Pacific Island CountriesKanayathu C. Koshy, Aliti Koroi, Neil Netaf, Cresantia Koya-Vaka'utaProblem statement: Pacific Island countries have been recognised globally as a ‘special case for environment and Sustainable Development (SD)’ because of their extreme vulnerability to a host of both external and internal development challenges such as: Narrow range of resources, high population density, limited export volume, impacts of climate change and natural disasters, trade, ICT and globalisation pressures. As part … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2010 · 9,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlgorithm Development for Measurement and Prediction the Traffic in Broad Band Integrated Service NetworksMohammad Al Rawajbeh, Ibrahim Mansi, Majed HussienProblem statement: In this study an effort had been made to develop an algorithm for traffic prediction and measurement for a wide use networks such as B-ISDN. Such algorithm should base on valuable parameters during the various stages of data elements transmission. The offered algorithm was expected to enforce the main sources of congestion problem in network. With this technique … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2010 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite

Another problem poised by these definitions of the concept is that of multi-level and multi-dimensional nature. Contemporary scholars of social … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2018 · 9,919 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeyond Accidents: A Back-Analysis on Conveyor Belt Injury for a Better Design for Maintenance OperationsAlberto Martinetti, Leo A.M. van Dongen, Raffaele RomanoThe conveyor belt represents one of the most commonly used methods of transporting bulk materials today. As highlighted multiple times in research, the moving parts are a critical issue causing accidents and injuries and several of these are strictly related to the opportunity to enter in working zones during maintenance activities, considered high-risk activity due to the nature of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2016 · 8,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINCREASING ANAEROBIC DIGESTION PERFORMANCE OF WASTEWATER WITH CO-DIGESTION USING DECANTER CAKEThaniya Kaosol, Narumol SohgrathokLow biogas production in the frozen seafood wastewater anaerobic digestion is observed due to the low organic and Total Solids (TS) contents in the wastewater. In this research the decanter cake will be used in the anaerobic co-digestion process to improve the biogas production rate. The effect of co-digestion and Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) will be investigated using the continuously … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 22 Sep 2014 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
