Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeedup of Particle Transport Problems with a Beowulf ClusterZhongxiang Zhao, G. Ivan MaldonadoThe MCNP code is a general Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport program that is widely used in health physics, medical physics and nuclear engineering for problems involving neutron, photon and electron transport[1]. However, due to the stochastic nature of the algorithms employed to solve the Boltzmann transport equation, MCNP generally exhibits a slow rate of convergence. In fact, engineers and scientists … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting River Flow in the USA: A Comparison between Auto-Regression and Neural Network Non-Parametric ModelsAbdel K.M. Baareh, Alaa F. Sheta, Khaled A. KhnaifesForecasting a time series became one of the most challenging tasks to variety of data sets. The existence of large number of parameters to be estimated and the effect of uncertainty and outliers in the measurements makes the time series modeling too complicated. Recently, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) became quite successful tool to handle time series modeling problem. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects Against Dextran Sulfate Sodium-induced Colitis in MiceBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl R. TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represent a new class of small molecules potentially effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by protecting cells from damage caused by excess inflammation and/or oxidative stress. The goal of this study was to determine the efficacy and potency of CPI-1189, a novel therapeutic agent, in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice. Mice received … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,713 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMesoscopic Damage Based Model for Plane Concrete under Static and Dynamic LoadingsM. Labibzadeh, S. A. SadrnejadThe constitutive equations for the mechanical behavior of concrete capable of seeing damage effects or crack growth procedure under loading/unloading/reloading was developed upon microplane framework. The proposed damage formulation has been built on the basis of five fundamental types of stress/strain combinations, which essentially may occur on any of microplanes. Model verification under different loading/unloading/reloading stress/strain paths has been examined. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpirulina protects against cadmium-induced hepatotoxicity in ratsAmr Amin, Alaaeldin A. Hamza, Sayel Daoud, Waleed HamzaCadmium (Cd) is an environmental and industrial cumulative pollutant that most affects many organs specially the liver. The protective effect of Spirulina, filamentous blue green algae, on Cd – induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity was evaluated in male rats. Oral administration of water extract of Spirulina for seven days followed by an acute toxic dose of Cd (3.5 mg kg … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 11,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecreational Viagra Use and Sexual Risk among Drug Abusing MenDennis G. Fisher, Robert Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg et al.Until recently, the Viagra connection to HIV was anchored in older adults. However, CDC investigation showed stability in 50+ HIV diagnoses on the heels of upward trends in risk indicators among men who have sex with men (MSM) and substance abusing populations. Signs have increasingly pointed to recreational drug use among younger populations, to which Viagra is being added to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 10,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence, Types and Risk Factors for Malnutrition in Displaced Sudanese ChildrenNuha Mamoun, Susan Homedia, Mustafa Mabyou et al.The nutritional status of 327 under-five children living in Mayoo displacement camp, Khartoum, Sudan, was assessed during May- August 2004. Risk factors for protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) were also studied. According to WHO criteria, a total of 186 (56.1%) children had malnutrition, of these 101(30.1%), 43 (13.1%) and 42 (12.8%) were mildly, moderately and severely malnourished respectively. According to Welcome classification, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation on the Healing of Radial Fracture in RabbitD. Sharifi, P. Yunessi, F. Sasani, S. MohitmafiThe study was performed on 10 New Zealand white rabbits 6 months old and weighing 3.0 to 4. 5 kg so as to evaluate the effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation (TES) on the right radial fracture healing. A piece of 0. 5 cm full thickness of right midshaft of radial bone was removed in all rabbits under general anesthesia. They … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,937 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating Soil Contamination with Kriging Interpolation MethodFatima Zohra Benmostefa LarguecheThe main objective of this study was to investigate whether Kriging is a useful tool to estimate the spatial distribution of ground pollutants in contaminated land. The second objective of this work was a more practical one. It consists on the identification of areas that should be subjected to remedial actions and also on deciding which contaminant needs to be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 8,287 accessesView PDFCite
