Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBit Error Rate Analysis of RS (7, 3) Coded Frequency Shift Keying Using SimulinkT.A. Shanmugasundaram, V. VijayabaskarBit Error Rate is an essential parameter to quantize the effectiveness of transceiver circuits used in low power, low duty cycle sensor nodes. BER can figure out their performance in terms of number of retransmissions, which keeps the node to consume its battery power undesirably rather than conserving it. Forward Error Correction schemes ensure the transceiver circuit to effectively perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 25 Mar 2015 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Long Term Cadmium Chloride Exposure on Testicular Functions in Male Albino RatsRania Abdel Rahman Elgawish, Mohamed Elshabrawy GhanemThis study was carried out to investigate the adverse effects of different doses of Cadmium Chloride (CdCl2) on reproductive functions in male rats. Forty male albino rats weighted 100-130 g were equally divided into 4 groups. The control group received distilled water throughout the experimental period, while the three treated groups received 5, 50 and 100 ppm of CdCl2 in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Dec 2014 · 8,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECT OF PUERPERAL METRITIS ON HOLSTEIN COWS PRODUCTIVE, REPRODUCTIVE VARIABLES AND CULLING RATESA. Dawod, Byeng R. MinThe objective of the study was to determine the effect of puerperal metritis prevalence in high yielding Holstein cows on productive (305 days, actual milk yields), reproductive (days to first estrus, days open and services per conception) variables and culling rates. Throughout the study, 2885 dairy records were collected from high yielding private Holstein dairy farm (average milk yield was … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 12 Nov 2014 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINTEREST COVERAGE RATIOS (ICRs) AND FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY: APPLICATION TO FIRMS WITH BOVINE DAIRY LIVESTOCKGiuseppe Bonazzi, Mattia IottiAgricultural firms with bovine dairy livestock are characterized by high investments in capital equipment and this is determined by the biological cycle of production, which requires large investments in land, facilities and bovine herd. These large investments require funding from equity capital or debt capital, which generates financial costs. Therefore, it is necessary to assess not only the profitability of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Oct 2014 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHROUGHPUT AND BIT ERROR RATE ANALYSIS OF LUBY TRANSFORM CODES WITH LOW AND MEDIUM NODAL DEGREE DISTRIBUTIONSI. Joe Louis Paul, S. Radha, J. RajaThis study presents two degree distributions namely low and medium nodal degree distributions aiming to build a low overhead Luby Transform (LT) codes. The motivation is to design a fast encoder/decoder especially for real-time multimedia streaming and multicasting applications using LT codes. The key idea of this study is to restrict the average degree of the transmitted encoded symbols as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 12 Aug 2014 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECTS STUDY OF NIGELLA SATIVA, ITS OIL AND THEIR COMBINATION WITH VITAMIN E ON OXIDATIVE STRESS IN RATSAmr A. RezqAntioxidants or free radical scavengers are very important in protecting the living cells against any damage induced by free radicals. The effects of Nigella Sativa Extract (NSE), Nigella Sativa Oil (NSO) and Vitamin E (Vit. E) and the combination of NSE or NSO with Vit. E on potassium bromate (KBrO3)-induced oxidative stress in male rats were investigated. Forty nine Sprague … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 23 Apr 2014 · 7,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIMPACT OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE IN PREVENTION OF PARACETAMOL INDUCED NEPHROTOXICITY IN RATSAbbas O. ElkaribParacetamol (PCM) overdose can cause nephrotoxicity with oxidative stress as one of the possible mechanisms mediating the event. However, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), the major secretory product of the human adrenal gland, has been shown to possess a multi-targeted antioxidant activity which is also effective against lipid peroxidation induced in various animal models and against various human disorders. In this study, the … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 7,566 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHEPATOTOXIC EFFECT OF ITRACONAZOLE IN EXPERIMENTAL RATSMohammed El-Hassan Abdelmaged KemeirItraconazole is a widely used antifungal drug.
