Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF CORNWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) generally occurs in soils as the anions H2PO4- or HPO4-2 depending on soil pH. These anions readily react with soil cations such as calcium, magnesium, iron and aluminum to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Crop recovery of applied phosphate fertilizer can be quite low during the season of application. In addition, the large amounts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,447 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMORPHOPHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IN PIGLETS FED A SESAME MEAL OR SOYBEAN MEAL DIETAraceli Aguilera Barreyro, Tércia Reis de Souza, Gerardo Mariscal-Landín et al.An important indicator to recommend a protein source for piglet nutrition is the absence of intestinal damage. The effects of sesame or soybean meal based diets on Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) morphophysiology, diarrhea incidence and severity in piglets were studied during the first two weeks post-weaning. Thirty-six piglets weaned at 21 days of age were fed one of three diets: A … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2014 · 7,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING DATA AVAILABILITY IN MOBILE ENVIRONMENT USING DATA ALLOCATIONMoaiad Ahmad Khder, Zulaiha Ali Othman, Abdullah Mohd Zin, Salha AbdullahData distribution is one of the crucial issues in Data Base Management Systems (DBMS) in general and in Mobile environment in Particular. It is important because, if not properly managed, it will cause reduction in data availability, which in turn causes more rejections in transactions. Replication algorithms (e.g., CCM) are used to improve data availability. However, the database replication algorithms … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 5 Jul 2013 · 6,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Extraction Conditions on the Recovery of Phenolic Antioxidants from Spent Coffee GroundsAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaThe extraction of phenolic compounds from Spent Coffee Grounds (SCG), a waste produced in large amounts worldwide, was investigated. SCG were rich in fiber and protein and had a total phenolic content of 18.75±0.43 mg GAE per gram dry weight. Extraction experiments were carried out in batch mode, using ethanol-water mixtures as solvent. A two-level factorial design was used to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 28 May 2013 · 8,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed Species Grazing of Cattle and Goats on Gastrointestinal Infections of Haemonchus ContortusRenita Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Lisa Gray, Yemane GhebreiyessusAt the present time, the meat of goat is the fastest growing class of livestock in the U.S.A. Due to the sub-tropical climate in the South Eastern region of the US, internal parasites pose a major constraint to the industry. The blood-feeding nematode, Haemonchus contortus results in production losses and even death in untreated animals. The control of H. contortus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOntological Approach for Effective Generation of Concept Based User Profiles to Personalize Search ResultsS. Prabaharan, R. S.D. WahidabanuProblem statement: Ontological user profile generation was a semantic approach to derive richer concept based user profiles. It depends on the semantic relationship of concepts. This study focuses on ontology to derive concept oriented user profile based on user search queries and clicked documents.This study proposes concept based on topic ontology which derives the concept based user profiles more independently. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 21 Nov 2011 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation Methods for Multicollinearity Proplem Combined with High Leverage Data PointsMoawad El-Fallah, Abd El-SallamProblem statement: Least Squares (LS) method has been the most popular method for estimating the parameters of a model due to its optimal properties and ease of computation. LS estimated regression may be seriously affected by multicollinearity which is a near linear dependency between two or more explanatory variables in the regression models. Although LS estimates are unbiased in the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
