Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAcaricidal Activity of Azadirachta indica (Neem Tree) and Carica papaya (Papaya) Leaf Extracts against Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Dog Ticks) Using Spray MethodAlfredo Vita Corpuz, Carmela Montoya Florentino, Paul Erman Tabuloc Quilana et al.Ticks pose a serious threat to dogs, with synthetic acaricides leading to environmental impact and resistance concerns. While Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya have shown acaricidal potential against Rhipicephalus sanguineus, their efficacy against dog ticks has not been thoroughly investigated. This study determined the acaricidal activity of A. indica and C. papaya leaf extract against R. sanguineus, both individually and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2025 · 8,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReversible Ionizing Radiation Sensors Based on Carbon NanotubesKenneth Fontánez, Abniel Machín, María C. Cotto et al.Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes (VA-CNTs) were grown by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) on a silicon substrate with alternating layers of TiN and SiO2. VA-CNTs were exposed to X-ray radiation to study the change in resistivity later. Preliminary results show an increase in the resistivity of CNTs as a function of radiation exposure time, which means that the structure responds successfully … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2020 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Recombinant Toxin Phospholipase D in Cardiac Muscle of RatsJoao Victor Capelli Peixoto, Fernando Augusto Lavezzo Dias, Carlos Estevan Nolf Damiani et al.Loxoceles spiders gender are worldwide spread and its bites can cause dermonecrosis or even a systemic effect (hemolysis, kidney and liver injury). It is believed that phospholipase D, the main component present in the venom, could be responsible for the injury. In this study, we used a recombinant form of phospholipase D (rLiD1) and evaluated its direct and systemic effects … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Jun 2015 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFactors Associated with Mortality Among Patients with Central Venous Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection in an Intensive Care UnitPriscilla Roberta Silva Rocha, Marcelo de Oliveira Maia, Gisele Brocco Magnan et al.Central venous catheterization is a common practice in the management of critically ill patients and is associated with various complications, such as Bloodstream Infections (BSI), which are major determinants of increased morbidity, mortality and healthcare expenses. Few studies have addressed factors that predict mortality in patients with this complication. The aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Feb 2013 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioconversion of Carotenoids in Five Fruits and Vegetables to Vitamin A Measured by Retinol Accumulation in Rat LiversArmando Carrillo-Lopez, Elhadi M. Yahia, Gabriela K. Ramirez-PadillaProblem statement: Vitamin A deficiency is one of the most prevalent and major nutritional problems in developing countries, especially in young children. In many countries, a substantial proportion of dietary vitamin A is commonly derived from pro-vitamin A carotenoids obtained from colored fruits and orange or green vegetables. However, the bioavailability of retinol derived from carotenoids from these plant sources … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEpidemiology of Human Herpesvirus Type 8 Infection in Cardiopathic PatientsAngela Ingianni, Maria A. Madeddu, Francesca Carta et al.Problem statement: The possible contribution of viruses to vascular pathology is still a controversial issue. Human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8) has been suggested to participate to the pathogenetic events associated with atherosclerotic lesion establishment and progression. Recently, a high incidence of infection of HHV-8 (11%) has been verified in the island of Sardinia. The aim of this study was to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePassive Transfer of HIV-1 Antibodies and Drug Resistant Virus during a Health Care Worker Accident: Implications for HCW Post-Exposure ManagementCarlos Fernando De Oliveira, Ricardo Sobhie Diaz, Abdallah Harmache et al.Problem statement: We studied in detail a case in which a nurse caring for an HIV-infected child suffered a deep-laceration accident with contaminated blood. Approach: The patient had been treated with zidovudine (ZDV) and the nurse became infected despite prophylactic use of ZDV initiated 2 h after the accident. A reactive anti-HIV-1/2 EIA and an indeterminate western blot (gp120/160 reactivity) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnvironmental Impact Assessment for Potential Continuous Processes for the Production of Carbon NanotubesAditi Singh, Helen H. Lou, Ralph W. Pike et al.As an emerging discipline, nanotechnology has the potential to improve environmental sustainability through its application in pollution prevention, treatment, remediation, etc. One challenging issue in the growth of nanotechnology is how to produce purified carbon nanotubes (CNT) in commercial quantities at affordable price and with low environmental impacts. A detailed assessment of such a manufacturing process from both economic and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of Ionizing Radiation Sensors Based on Carbon NanotubesKenneth Fontánez, Abraham García, María del C Cotto-Maldonado et al.SWNTs have been efficiently grown on patterned substrates, for its subsequent application to the development of ionizing radiation sensors. SWNTs before and after exposure to X-rays were characterized by Raman and XPS spectroscopy, revealing the appearance of alterations that have been justified as possibly due to the presence of adsorbed oxygen species. These materials have been used for the fabrication … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 29 May 2019 · 7,191 accessesView PDFCite
