Approach: In this study an isocratic High performance liquid chromatographic method with UV detection at 230 nm was described for simultaneous determination of Ceftazidime and sulbactam sodium in plasma and combined dosage form. Chromatographic separation of two drugs was achieved on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTuning of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller using Multi-Objective Non Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization Applied to pH Control in Continuous Stirred Tank ReactorC. Agees Kumar, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: Most of the control engineering problems are characterized by several, contradicting, conflicting objectives, which have to be satisfied simultaneously. Two widely used methods for finding the optimal solution to such problems are aggregating to a single criterion and using Pareto-optimal solutions. Approach: Non-Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (NSPSO) based approach is used in the design of multiobjective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 6,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKinetic Optimization of Folic Acid Polymer Conjugates for Drug TargetingJacob M. Ngoy, Sunny E. Iyuke, Clarence S. Yah, Wilhelm E. NeuseProblem statement: Folic Acid (FA) is an essential, bioavailable water soluble B-complex vitamin that helps in the replication of normal cells. It is obtained from natural sources and it deficiency can leads to oncogenic cells development. Within this frame work in mind, we designed and synthesized a new bioconjugate carrier that can enhance the effectiveness of FA. Approach: The polymeric … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfiltration of Nanoparticles into Porous Binder Jet Printed PartsAmelia Elliott, Sarah AlSalihi, Abbey L. Merriman, Mufeed M. BastiThe densification of parts that are produced by binder jetting Additive Manufacturing (AM; a.k.a. “3D Printing”) is an essential step in making them mechanically useful. Increasing the packing factor of the powder bed by incorporating nanoparticles into the binder has potential to alleviate the amount of shrinkage needed for full densification of binder jet parts. In this study we present … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 11 Mar 2016 · 13,395 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplications of Method Chosen for Analysis of Fatty Acids in Meat: A ReviewLivia Facuri Araujo Macedo, Ellen Cristina Quirino Lacerda, Roberio Rodrigues Silva et al.The influence of the beef Fatty Acid (FA) profile on human health, has become a recurring concern. For an analysis of the lipid composition of food, it is necessary that the complex lipids be quantified in a suitable form for subsequent analysis of their composition by gas chromatography. The choice of appropriate methods of lipid extraction and esterification of fatty … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2012 · 8,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Complexing Agent on Electrochemical Micro Machining of Stainless SteelChen Hui, Wang Yu-Kui, Wang Zhen-Long, Zhao Wan-ShengProblem statement: Electrochemical Machining (ECM) is a prospective technique in micro machining. The productions of work piece in ECM are precipitation of hydroxide, which will block the machining gap. To prevent the formation of hydroxide, acids were often used. To machining work piece which is not acid-resistant, acids are not suitable. Approach: This study is conducted to find the effects … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuffering Capacity of Fast-Growing Species and Curing Time of UF Resin Modified With Zinc Borate and Monoammonium PhosphateIzran Kamal, Koh Mok Poh, Tan Yu Eng et al.Problem statement: Occupying a suitable hot pressing time for particleboard fabrication seems very tricky for manufacturers of the wood-based panel. Longer or shorter pressing times can affect physical and mechanical properties of the produced particleboards and that is why extra care should be given on this matter. Longer pressing time can cause resin in a particleboard to over-cure whereas shorter … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
