Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of Airflow around Vehicle A-pillar Region and Windnoise Generation PredictionM. H. Shojaefard, K. Goudarzi, H. FotouhiFlow separation and reattachment around the vehicle A-pillar region dictates strong pressure fluctuations on the side window surfaces and can also lead to generate aerodynamic noise. The objective of this work is to investigate qualitative flow visualization of airflow behaviour around vehicle A-pillar and its potential to generate windnoise in this region. By means of Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) under … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,335 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Antidiabetic Efficacy of Combined Extracts from Two Continental Plants: Azadirachta indica (A. Juss) (Neem) and Vernonia amygdalina (Del.) (African Bitter Leaf)Patrick Ekong Ebong, Item Justin Atangwho, Eyong Ubana Eyong, Godwin Eneji EgbungPolyherbal therapy is said to be a current pharmacological principle having the advantage of producing maximum therapeutic efficacy with minimum side effects. We assessed the antidiabetic efficacy and hence the impact on biochemical indices of toxicity by a combination of extracts from neem and bitterleaf. Thirty rats, 25 diabetic and 5 non-diabetic rats, were used for the study. The diabetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Aug 2008 · 14,400 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRapamycin Inhibits Cystogenesis by Cystic Epithelial Cells Derived from Human Autosomal Dominant Polycystic KidneysGerard Elberg, Teresa V. Lewis, Lijuan Chen, Martin A. TurmanAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common genetic disorders and carries a high health burden since it progresses to renal failure in half of the afflicted individuals by the 6th decade of life. Currently, there is no effective treatment to slow the progression of ADPKD. Rapamycin, a drug most commonly used as an immunosuppressive agent … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,101 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Application of Carhart Atom Pairs to Predict Anticonvulsant ActivityAlan Talevi, Julian J. Prieto, Luis E. Bruno-Blanch, Eduardo CastroAbout 50 million people in the world suffer from epilepsy, especially in childhood, adolescence and old age. Available treatment fails to control epilepsy in up to 30% of affected people. In developing countries, however, the amount of patients that do not receive adequate treatment climbs up to 75%. Moreover, the new generation of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) causes important central and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,857 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency Behavior of a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) in Contact with Selected SolutionsZ. A. Talib, Z. Baba, S. Kurosawa et al.A device was constructed to monitor viscosity of solutions using fundamental frequency of 9 MHz and 10 MHz quartz crystal. Piezoelectric quartz crystals with gold electrodes were mounted by O-ring in between liquid flow cell. Only one side of the crystal was exposed to the solutions which were pumped through silicon tube by a peristaltic pump. The measured frequency shift … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,514 accessesView PDF Cite
