Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Nano-silver Formation by Fusarium oxysporum PTCC 5115 Employing Response Surface MethodologyM. Karbasian, S. M. Atyabi, S. D. Siadat et al.Fusarium oxysporum was grown in medium containing malt, yeast extracts and glucose on shaker at 25±1°C and180 rpm for 96 h. The mycelia were used to convert silver nitrate solution into nano-silver. The bioconversion was optimized through response surface methodology-central composite design .The factors which affected the process were pH, temperature, agitation rate, concentration of silver nitrate, time of reaction … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPitch Control of a Rocket with a Novel LQG/LTR Control AlgorithmAliyu Bhar Kisabo, Aliyu Funmilayo Adebimpe, Sholiyi Olusegun SamuelThis paper presents the design, simulation and analysis of a novel LQG and LQG/LTR control algorithm for the pitch angle of a sounding rocket. These improved LQG and LQG/LTR control algorithms stem from the fact that a Riccati Differential Equation (RDE) rather than the popular Algebraic Riccati Equation (ARE) is used to obtaining the Kalman gain in the observer of … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2019 · 7,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Statistical Model for China's Degree of Foreign Trade DependenceWei Yu, Jusong YuThis study studies China's degree of Foreign Trade Dependence (FTD), which shows a persistent increasing tendency from 1981 to 2009. The speed and scope of its increasing exceed those of many other countries since the practicing of the reform and open policy. One of the reasons we cannot ignore is the rapid development of processing trade. To analyze this influence, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2019 · 8,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection of Human Albumin against UV-C Irradiation by Natural AntioxidantsAntonio Zuorro, Roberto LavecchiaThe use of UV-C light as a means to inactivate pathogens in biological media containing blood components or plasma derivatives has recently been rediscovered. Although highly effective, these treatments may have deleterious effects on plasma proteins such as albumin, fibrinogen and immunoglobulins. Here we investigate the use of three natural antioxidants, gallic acid, nicotinic acid and ascorbic acid, as potential … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2018 · 9,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Conditions for Extraction of Pepsin-Soluble Collagen from Indonesian Local “Kacang” Goatskin by Response Surface MethodologyRina Wahyuningsih, Rusman, Nurliyani et al.Indonesian local “Kacang” goat is an animal species widely known by consumers over the world which possesses many health effects. Goatskin is one of body parts which has potential as collagen sources. The optimal conditions for collagen extraction were determined by response surface methodology in this study. Multiple response optimization designs were applied to evaluate the effects of two independent … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 May 2018 · 8,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of 2, 4 DichlorophenolTaghreed Al-Khalid, Muftah H. El-NaasThe present study focuses on the optimization of process parameters of the aerobic biodegradation of 2, 4 Dichlorophenol (2, 4 DCP) by a commercial strain of P. putida immobilized in PVA gel matrix, using design of experiments by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The degradation rates obtained from these experiments were used to evaluate the effects of the main factors and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2017 · 7,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNexus between CO2 Emission, Energy Consumption and Economic Growth in ASEAN Countries Plus ChinaGhulam Mustafa, Ismail Abd Latif, Said Zamin Shah, Muhammad Khalid BashirThis study mainly contributes to test the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis using panel data for the ASEAN (Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Philippines) countries plus China. Empirical focus of the study is to examine the nexus between CO2 emission, energy consumption and economic growth. While using panel data for 1971-2008 and applying panel co-integration techniques, the emergent findings of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 19 Aug 2016 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Asymmetric Encryption Algorithms in a VANETEdward David Moreno, Leila C.M. Buarque, Florêncio Natan et al.This paper describes the impact of using asymmetric encryption algorithms, with emphasis on RSA, ECC and Multivariate Quadratic Quasigroup (MQQ) algorithms, in a scenario of Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET). In the research we used the simulator NS-3 with specific module for vehicular networks. The algorithms were implemented in C and were included in NS-3. The results, even in a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 30 Jan 2016 · 6,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA ROBUST OPTIMIZATION APPROACH FOR INDEX TRACKING PROBLEMMohsen Gharakhani, Forough Zarea Fazlelahi, S. J. SadjadiIndex tracking is an investment approach where the primary objective is to keep portfolio return as close as possible to a target index without purchasing all index components. The main purpose is to minimize the tracking error between the returns of the selected portfolio and a benchmark. In this study, quadratic as well as linear models are presented for minimizing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 8,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Various Inclusion Levels of β-Mannanase on Nutrient Digestibility in Diets Consisting of Corn, Soybean Meal and Palm Kernel Expellers Fed to Growing PigsW. B. Kwon, S. K. Park, C. Kong, B.G. KimAn experiment was conducted to determine the effects of various inclusion levels of β-mannanase on the energy and mannan digestibility in diets containing corn, Soybean Meal (SBM) and Palm Kernel Expellers (PKE) fed to growing pigs. The PKE contained 92.6% dry matter, 4,417 kcal gross energy kg-1, 4.02% ash and 31.3% mannan on an as-fed basis.
