Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleOmission of Men from Gender-Development Theory and Praxis: A Pathway for Addressing the Plights of Women?Thomas Yeboah, Richard Serbeh, Peter BembirWithin the gender-development discourse, there have been widespread concerns in relation to the neglect of women in benefitting from the process and outcomes of development. This has led in part to the proliferation of policy programming designed for women to achieve gender equality while ensuring that women benefit proportionally from development. However the extent to which gender-based interventions will succeed … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2015 · 7,783 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSeasonal Variation of Heavy Metal Concentrations in Farm Soils of Sreepur Industrial Area of Gazipur, Bangladesh: Pollution Level AssessmentMd. Billal Hossain, Md. Nurul Islam, Mohammad Shamsul Alam, Md. Zakir HossenA study was conducted to measure the seasonal variation of different heavy metal contents in farm soils of Sreepur Upazila of Gazipur district and to assess their pollution level. Industrial affected and non-affected soil samples were collected from 5 locations in three seasons viz. pre-monsoon (April), monsoon (August), and dry season (January), thus a total of 30 soil samples were … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 6 Aug 2020 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment of Ergonomics Guidelines for Improved Sitting Postures in the Classroom among Malaysian University StudentsPoh Kiat Ng, Kian Siong Jee, Sin Yee LimPLIBEL stands for Plan for Identifiering av Belastnings faktorer, which is a Sweedish acronym describing a method for identification of ergonomics hazards. Using a modified PLIBEL checklist, this study aimed to identify the relationships among musculoskeletal risk factors and the classroom sitting conditions among Malaysian university students. A survey questionnaire was developed based on the modified PLIBEL checklist. A total … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2016 · 9,937 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPerspectives of Solid State Fermentation for Production of Food EnzymesCristobal Noe Aguilar, Gerardo Gutiérrez-Sánchez, PLilia A. rado-Barragán et al.Food industry represents one of the economic sectors where microbial metabolites have found a wide variety of applications. This is the case of some enzymes, such as amylases, cellulases, pectinases and proteases which have played a very important role as food additives. Most of these enzymes have been produced by submerged cultures at industrial level. Many works in the literature … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTransversely Cracked Beam's Finite Elements with a Hinged EndM. Skrinar, T. PliberšekTwo new beam finite-elements to be used for the transverse displacement analysis of slender beams with transverse cracks are presented where the derivations are based on a simplified computational model. The beam stiffness matrixes are presented in symbolic forms for beams with a single transverse crack and a hinge at one of the nodes. Since in the derivations the corresponding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 6,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEvaluation of Transcript Labeling Techniques and Development of a Membrane-based Parallel Gene Expression AssayMark A. Fisher, Bonnie B. Plikaytis, Thomas M. ShinnickAn inexpensive alternative to micro arrays was developed to examine the expression of small sets of genes in parallel and used to compare direct and indirect transcript labeling methods. Psoralen-biotin direct labeling was ~10-fold less sensitive than reverse transcriptase-biotin-dUTP labeling, but the enzymatic method generated higher levels of background noise in miniarray hybridizations. The reproducibility of hybridization intensities was the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Pollution by Heavy Metals in the Gold Mining Region of East CameroonDallou Guy Blanchard, Ngoa Engola Louis, Abdourahimi et al.The main objective of this study is to assess the level of heavy metals pollution in soil samples collected around gold mines located in Betaré Oya (BO) and Batouri (BA) in Eastern Cameroon. Elemental analysis of soil samples was carried out using Quant´X EDXRF spectrometer. Its sensitivity and accuracy were increased by using the Fundamental Parameter approach for quantification of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 7 Nov 2018 · 9,777 accessesView PDFCite
