Group 1A, couples had no symptoms but presented with subinfertility; Group 1B, the subfertile couples were positive for either Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) or Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU); Group 2, couples … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 11 Jan 2017 · 8,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficiency Comparison of Operational and Profitability: A Case of Hong Kong Commercial BanksCheng-Ru Wu, Hui-Yin Tsai, Ya-Mei WangProblem Statement: Traditional DEA models deal with measurements of relative efficiency of DMUs regarding multiple-inputs vs. multiple-outputs. One of the drawbacks of these models is the neglect of intermediate products or linking activities. The objectives of this study were: (i) This research was shown how to use DEA by two stages, with outputs from the first stage becoming inputs in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Role of Competition in Today's Hong Kong The Views of Hong Kong Chinese Adolescents in Comparative PerspectiveDavid WatkinsOpen-ended responses to the question "what kind of role does competition play in Hong Kong today?" were obtained from 257 senior Hong Kong secondary school students aged 16-18 years. Content analysis showed the respondents viewed competition in terms of the areas in which competition was involved, the importance of such competition, and the value of this competition. Their views of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAnaerobic Fermentation for Ceftriaxone Sodium Degradation in Excess Sludge: pH-Dependent Performance, Metabolite Formation, and Microbial Community DynamicsWeiwei Li, Hong Niu, Yonghui Zhang et al.The accumulation of ceftriaxone sodium (CTX), a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, in wastewater and sludge poses significant environmental and health risks, necessitating effective degradation strategies. This study investigated anaerobic fermentation of excess sludge (12,000-14,000 mg/L) spiked with 15 mg/L CTX under varying pH conditions (4, 7, 10, 12) to evaluate sludge reduction, metabolite formation, and microbial community dynamics. Results demonstrated that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2026 · 865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptimization of Hydrodistillation Extraction by Response Surface Methodology and Evaluation of the Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Essential Oils from Phragmites communis (Cav) TrinXin-Tong Zou, Hong-Yuan Ma, Yu-He Li et al.The principal objectives of this study encompass three distinct aspects: firstly, to streamline the extraction process of Phragmites communis (Cav) Trin essential oil; secondly, to systematically analyze the essential oil’s chemical composition; and finally, to evaluate biological activity. Through the system optimization experiment, the optimal extraction process was determined: the crushing size was set to 10 mesh, the total solid-liquid … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2026 · 2,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMRI Observation and Analysis of Muscle Activity During ExerciseLi-Chang Zou, Hong-Wu LiWhile conventional biomechanical testing techniques are able to determine the mechanical characteristics of muscle tissue, they do not offer precise insight into how muscle metabolism and microstructure change in response to various types of exercise activities over the course of time. Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) analysis of muscle tissue allows researchers to examine how different levels of intensity affect … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 30 Jul 2026 · 1,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInvestigating Campylobacter Spp. in Mekong Delta Duck Farms: Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Antibiotic ResistanceNguyen Vu Thuy Hong Loan, Le Trung Kien, Do Ngoc Yen Phuong et al.Campylobacter spp. is a leading cause of gastroenteritis worldwide, contributing to significant health and economic burdens, especially in poor hygiene practices. Investigating this bacterium's prevalence and antibiotic resistance in ducks from the Mekong Delta is essential, as the region's extensive duck farming industry presents a potential risk for transmission to humans through the food chain. During August 2024 to February … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2026 · 1,623 accessesView PDFCite
