Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAutomatic Counting for Live and Dead Cells from Trypan Blue-Stained Images by Image Analysis Based on Adaptive K-Means ClusteringSu Mon Aung, Kanyanatt Kanokwiroon, Tonghathai Phairatana, Surapong ChatpunComputer-assisted image analysis can be employed to reduce the time consumed in the routine task such as cell counting. This study aimed to establish a method to perform this routine task based on an image analysis to automatically count live and dead cells after staining with trypan blue dye. Gray scale conversion and morphological operation were applied to the input … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 1 Mar 2019 · 8,566 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Electronic Cigarette E-Liquids on the Adhesion and Growth of Osteoblast CellsAna Carla Lorenz-Vieira, Cesar Augusto Magalhães Benfatti, Mahmoud RouabhiaElectronic cigarettes (E-cigarettes) were designed to replace traditional cigarettes to decrease the harmful effects of smoking. The liquid in e-cigarettes contains different chemicals, such as Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerin (VG), and may contain nicotine. To be more attractive, e-liquids are supplemented with flavorings. Because vaped e-liquids are shown to be damaging to oral tissues, similar effects could occur … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 29 Apr 2023 · 5,155 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Some Dairy Performance Indices on Milk Somatic Cell Count in Holstein Dairy CowsAhmed Dawod, Sherif Shawky, Tamer M. Abdel-Hamid et al.This study was conducted to evaluate the direct and the indirect standardized effects of some dairy performance parameters (days dry, lactation length, parity, total milk yield and 305-day milk yield) on the milk Somatic Cell Count (SCC) of Holstein cows throughout modeling of these variables with the path analysis technique. During studying 617 Holstein cows were enrolled in the experiment … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2019 · 7,235 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmune Response, Detection of IgE and PGE2 during Vaginal Candidiasis in MiceRosymar Coutinho Lucas, Rafael Taglialegna, Carolina Nunes França et al.Vulvovaginal candidiasis is an opportunistic infection that affects most women in adult life, but the defense mechanism remains to be elucidated. Animals treated with estradiol were inoculated with Candida albicans having high virulence power. The experimental control consisted of animal groups treated with estradiol and animals without treatment that were inoculated with physiologic serum. The vaginal wall was collected, at … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 14 Jul 2016 · 6,976 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction and Classification of Blood Cells Using Artificial Neural NetworkMagudeeswaran Veluchamy, Karthikeyan Perumal, Thirumurugan PonuchamyProblem statement: One method of evaluating the clinical status is counting of cell types based on features that it contains. There is a need for a rapid, reproducible method, superior to human inspection and for the classification of cells. For solving these problems, quantitative digital-image analysis is applied and a novel method for classifications of affected blood cells from normal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,156 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Activities as Affected by Peat Dryness and AmeliorantEdi Husen, Fahmuddin AgusProblem statement: Acceleration of microbial activities and thus of CO2 emission in drained peat soils used for agriculture, is of the main environmental concern. The objectives of this study were to (i) examine microbial activities in peat samples treated with different levels of water contents and ameliorants and (ii) evaluate the relative contribution of microbial groups to peat respiration. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Sep 2011 · 7,546 accessesView PDF Cite
