Approach: After local X-ray radiation of both rat gastrocnemius muscles at a dose 20 Gy or after total γ-irradiation of animals at a semiletal dose 6 Gy, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2011 · 8,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLeaf Chlorophyll Fluorescence and Gas Exchange Response to Different Light Levels in Platycerium bifurcatumRuzana-Adibah Mohd Sanusi, Ainuddin Ahmad Nuruddin, Hazandy Abdul HamidProblem Statement: Platycerium bifurcatum (Cav.) C. Chr. is epiphytes which lives in forest canopy and commonly used for its ornamental value. In these environments, they were always exposed to many types of stresses such as high light intensity. Light intensity plays an important role in affecting plant’s physiological performance. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate physiological responses … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIdentification the Specific Relationships among Physical Parameters which Use to Quantify Inactivation Effect of Charged Particles at Low DosesAbubaker Ali Yousif, Ismail Bin Bahari, Muhamad Samudi YasirProblem statement: The relationships among physical qualities parameters which are characterized charged particles are not extensively determined for all types of ionizing radiations; the specific physical parameters that are also qualified to quantify the radiation effects of charged particles have been investigated. Approach: Secondary data of charged particles which are used to irradiate mammalian cells in vitro has been employed … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,533 accessesView PDFCite
