Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening Neuropharmacological Activities of Kaempferia parviflora (Krachai Dam) in Healthy Adult Male RatsThaneeya Hawiset, Supaporn Muchimapura, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Bungorn SripanidkulchaiProblem statement: Although the global prevalence of psychological disorders is increasing continually, the efficacies of therapeutic strategies are still very limited. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of psychiatric disorders and substance possessing antioxidant activity can alleviate the mentioned conditions. Therefore, we hypothesized that Kaempferia parviflora, a medicinal plant claimed for nerve tonic, also possessed the neuropharmacological activities … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 8,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructure of Lamellae and Chloride Cell in the Gill of Alosa Caspio Caspio (Clupeidae, Teleostei)Z. Saadatfar, D. ShahsavaniAs a surface for respiratory gas diffusion, ion regulation and waste excretion, gill epithelium of Alosa Caspio Caspio has been investigated. Problem statement: Surely, morphological study of gill cells is the main route for giving the basic data which can be inductive for physiological and pathological investigations. Approach: Gills were removed from Alosa Caspio which is from euryhaline species and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation of Amylolytic Bacteria from Viscera of Labeo rohita (Ham.) and Optimization of Alpha Amylase ExtractionDebabrat Baishya, Hridip Kumar SarmaProblem statement: Fish is largely consumed in the north-eastern part of India resulting in the generation of huge amount of fish viscera in the market places. These waste generated is not properly managed for disposal. Under such circumstances it is necessary to properly utilize this waste regenerating the possibility of environment friendly disposal. Besides, industrially and commercially useful biological products … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 May 2011 · 8,054 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Leakage Current to Predict Insulator Flashover Using Artificial Neural NetworkN. Narmadhai, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarProblem statement: The phenomenon of flashover in polluted insulators has been continued by the study of the characteristics of contaminating layers deposited on the surface of insulators in high voltage laboratories. In the literature, Experimental investigations have been carried out on a real insulator or a flat plate model of insulators under high voltage application. This study proposed the Equivalent … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Wall Roughness and Concentration of Clay on Erosion in the Hole Erosion TestKissi Benaissa, Parron Vera Miguel Angel, Rubio Cintas Maria Dolores et al.Problem statement: Internal soil erosion is a real threat for hydraulic infrastructures. In its final stage it develops in piping involving the formation and progression of a continuous void inside the soil between the upstream and downstream sides. The hole erosion test was introduced to characterize kinematics of piping in terms of the time left to rupture. Actual modeling approaches … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2010 · 8,510 accessesView PDFCite
