Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow (Un)biased are Airport Security Screening Procedures? A Social-Cognitive ExperimentPoornima Madhavan, Jeremy R. BrownProblem statement: This research examined the role that social-cognitive biases such as gender biases and racial biases play in decision making processes during the screening of carry-on luggage at airports. This research is unique in that no research so far has addressed the social-psychological underpinnings of airport security screening procedures. Approach: Participants (n = 36) performed a computer simulated task … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Free Educational Java Framework for Graph AlgorithmsGianluca Costa, Claudia D’Ambrosio, Silvano MartelloProblem statement: In the teaching of graph theory algorithms it is important that students can experiment them on numerical instances in order to fully understand their logical meaning and to learn how they can be implemented. Approach: We developed an open source Java framework to help students in their approach to the study of graph algorithms. The framework was implemented … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Evidence for the Association of a Strain of Uganda Variant of East African Cassava Mosaic Virus to Symptom Severity in Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) Fields in TogoK. D. Adjata, E. Muller, M. Peterschmitt et al.Problem statement: This study was carried out to demonstrate that the severity of Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) in Togo, is not only influenced by synergism between cassava Begomoviruses in presence, but essentially by recombination between the different Begomoviruses infecting cassava. Approach: Foliar samples presenting typical biological features of Begomoviruses infection were collected from cassava and wild infected plants from different … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy of Some Commercial Chemical Disinfectants on Salmonella enterica Serovar TyphimuriumEssam S. Soliman, E. G. Taha, M. A.A. Sobieh, P. G. ReddyProblem statement: Poultry industry is intensive and consistently applies an all-in, all-out system with the aim of minimizing infection pressure and targeting specific pathogens like Salmonella which remains one of the leading causes of food-borne illness, many questions regarding the introduction and persistence in animal production still remain. Therefore disinfection during production break is a routine part of the biosecurity … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,391 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReconfigurable Elliptic Curve Crypto-Hardware Over the Galois Field GF(2163)Mohamed Abdelkader Bencherif, Hamid Bessalah, Abderrezak GuessoumProblem statement: In the last decade, many hardware designs of elliptic curves cryptography have been developed, aiming to accelerate the scalar multiplication process, mainly those based on the Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), the major issue concerned the ability of embedding this strategic and strong algorithm in a very few hardware. That is, finding an optimal solution to the one … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,346 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntrinsically Unstructured Proteins: Potential Targets for Drug DiscoveryPathan Salma, Chintan Chhatbar, Sriram SeshadriProblem statement: The function of a protein is dependent on its three-dimensional structure. However, numerous proteins lacking intrinsic globular 3D structure under physiological conditions had been recognized. These proteins are frequently involved in some of the most critical cellular control mechanisms and it appears that their rapid turnover, aided by their unstructured nature in the unbound state, provides a level … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Power Phase Locked Loop Frequency Synthesizer for 2.4 GHz Band ZigbeeNesreen Mahmoud Hammam Ismail, Masuri OthmanProblem statement: Wireless communication systems are required for many applications. There are different standards for these systems. IEEE 802.15.4 defines the communication system standard for zigbee. This study discussed designing one of the blocks of zigbee transceiver which is the Phase Locked Loop (PLL). A major target for any communication systems is saving battery power, especially for zigbee as it … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTamoxifen Drug Loading Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Prepared by Hot High Pressure Homogenization TechniquesNagi A. ALHaj, Rasedee Abdullah, Siddig Ibrahim, Ahmad BustamamAs drug delivery systems Nanoparticulate widely investigated because of many advantages such as smaller size, controlled drug release potential, targeting ability, enhancement of therapeutic efficacy and reduction of toxicity. So, Solid Lipid Nanoparticles have recently received considerable attention as alternative drug delivery carrier. In this study Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) containing tamoxifen, nonsteroidal antiestrogens have been loaded and to be … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 15,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSexual Risk Intervention In Multiethnic Drug And Alcohol UsersDeborah L. Jones, Stephen M. Weiss, Ndashi Chitalu et al.An estimated 38.6 million persons globally are living with HIV, of whom over 1.1 million reside in Zambia. Of the 2 million cases in the US, 64% of new cases among women are among African Americans. Alcohol and drug use represents a significant risk factor for HIV transmission among both Zambians and African Americans. In addition, gender dynamics in both … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Phenotypically Suppressed Cancer Cell As a Therapeutic TargetKimberly D. Kyker, Jessica E. Thorpe, Satyendra S. Shenoy et al.Bladder cancer recurs in up to 70% of patients judged to be tumor-free after treatment. Like other cancers, delayed appearance of metastases is common. These findings suggest the malignant phenotype can be suppressed, to emerge later. Following up on previous research in our laboratory showing that normal extracellular matrix can suppress the malignant phenotype of bladder cancers, we here demonstrate … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,471 accessesView PDFCite
