The second is dedicated to the presentation of human systems as socially … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 May 2015 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSynthesis of Baso4 Nanoparticles by Precipitation Method Using Polycarboxylate as a ModifierMohamed El-Shahate Ismaiel Saraya, Inas Mostafa BakrProblem statement: Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) is suitable for many applications because of its whiteness, inertness and high specific gravity. Approach: Nanoparticles of barium sulphate (BaSO4) have been synthesized from barium nitrate by precipitation method in the presence of water soluble organic polycarboxylic polymer as a modifying agent. Transmission electron microscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2011 · 15,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUncommon Toxicologic Profile at Toxic Doses of CPI-613 (an Agent Selectively Alters Tumor Energy Metabolism) in Rats and Minipigs Reflects Novel MechanismClaudia Maturo, King C. Lee, Robert Rodriguez, Robert ShorrProblem statement: CPI-613 is a novel anticancer agent and the toxicological profile has not been assessed. Accordingly, the objective of these studies was to thoroughly evaluate the Toxicokinetic (TK) effects of CPI-613 in rats and to compare the toxicological profile of rats to minipigs to determine if there were differences between the two animal species. Approach: These studies involved assessments … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Jun 2011 · 9,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRemoval and Recovery of Lead from Aqueous Solution by Low Cost MediaLucia Pappalardo, Fawwaz Jumean, Naser AbdoProblem statement: To remove Pb(II) from wastewater using local UAE sand and then to recover the removed Pb(II). Approach: Removal efficiency of Pb(II) from wastewater was investigated using white, yellow and red United Arab Emirates sand with pore sizes < 300 μm. Two methods were employed: batch equilibrium and column filtration. In the batch equilibrium study, the effect of sand … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLoad Balancing on Open Networks: A Mobile Agent ApproachR. B. Patel, Neetu AggarwalIn order to disperse the load on a Web server, generally the server cluster is configured to distribute access requests, or mirror servers are distributed geographically on different networks. Use of the Internet and the World-Wide-Web (WWW) has become widespread in recent years and mobile agent technology has proliferated at an equally rapid rate to evenly distribute the requests to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 6,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Administration of Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) on Some Hematological Values of Alloxan-induced Diabetic RatsKamal M.S. MansiThis study was designed to evaluate the role of alpha- melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) on heart rate and some hematological values in alloxan induced diabetic rats. 40 male white rats were divided into four experimental groups: control, diabetic, α-MSH-treated and α-MSH-treated diabetic. At the end of the experimental period (3weeks), animals in all four groups were fasted for 12 hrs … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractControl of Contamination of Tissue Plant Cultures During in Vitro Clonal MicropropagationIrina Anikina, Nursultan Kaynidenov, Dora Dayu Rahma Turista et al.Plant micropropagation is currently an important method for modern large-scale propagation of valuable plant crops. Among the risks limiting the success of this method is the contamination of cultured plants. Conventional surface sterilization methods are not always effective against internal infection of plant tissues, and secondary contamination of tissue cultures during replication is also a major problem. This causes scientific … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 8 Apr 2025 · 8,693 accessesView PDFCite
