Background: Aeromonas hydrophila cause one of the most important diseases in fishes and lead to economic losses, and may be contaminated human beings. Objectives: The current research aimed to investigate the anti-bacterial activity shown by the extracts prepared from different parts of Olea europea, ...
In this study the effects of water salinity on serum total protein and its components in grass carp were investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of salinity tolerance of fish on total serum protein level and its components as an indicator of liver and kidney activity. One hundred ...
Security and disaster alert dissemination showcase the key challenges faced by the fishing industry, mainly due to the lack of reliable communication means, and can pose serious threats to the lives of the fishermen. The fishing vessels, equipped with appropriate transceivers, can be considered as MANETs ...
Much research on coral reefs has documented differential declines in coral and associated organisms. In order to contextualise this general degradation, research on community composition is necessary in the context of varied disturbance histories and the biological processes and physical features thought ...
Background Little is known regarding risk factors for lymphatic filariasis (LF) in Central Africa. We studied the epidemiology of LF in an endemic village in the Republic of Congo. Methods Dependent variables were Wuchereria bancrofti antigenemia (ICT card test) and microfilaremia (night blood smears). ...
After decades of strict pollution control and municipal sewage treatment, the water quality of the Tanshui River increased significantly after pollution mitigation as indicated by the River Pollution Index (RPI). The pollution level of the estuarine region decreased from severe pollution to mostly moderately ...
Submarine optical networks play a major part in international telecommunication networks, with over 95% of all transcontinental communications traffic being carried by submarine cables. This makes submarine optical networks highly important, both from economical, as well as the legal point of view. ...
The internet is a rich source of knowledge that is constantly expanding as users generate content which needs to be organized and classified. Future versions of the web are likely to include intelligent software agents capable of using metadata to understand complex relationships and better support ...
Purpose: This paper is directed at gaining an understanding of the internal business logic of an organisation in order to better determine the requirements for a successful customer service initiative in an organisation offering an integrated package of products and services. Problem Investigated: Customer ...
Motor neuron disorders (MNDs) are a clinically heterogeneous group of neurological diseases characterized by progressive degeneration of motor neurons, and share some common pathological pathways. Despite remarkable advances in our understanding of these diseases, no curative treatment for MNDs exists. ...
Purpose of this paper is to introduce a new technique for denoising underwater acoustic signal affected by ambient noise. Ambient noise is nonstationary and unwanted background noise caused due to manmade or natural causes. In practical application it is essential to denoise underwater acoustic signal, ...
The optimal control literature is dominated by standard problems in which the system cost functional is expressed in the well-known Bolza form. Such Bolza cost functionals consist of two terms: a Mayer term (which depends solely on the final state reached by the system) and a Lagrange integral term ...
In nature, a phase transition is the transformation of a thermodynamic system from one phase to another. Different phases of a thermodynamic system have distinctive physical properties. Inspired by this natural phenomenon, this paper presents a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based on the Phase Transitions ...
Hydropower, with characteristics of superior storage capacity and speedy response, can meet sudden fluctuations electricity demand. And its generation capacity could be doubled by 2050 according to IEA's recent estimation. Besides, hydropower doesn't require innovative technologies, and can be operated ...
Many governments are facing lack of resources and expecting some forms of Public Private Partnership (PPP) in service provision and infrastructure development. Meanwhile, many public entities have put solving social challenges as a priority in their science and innovation policies. However, both public ...
The Pasquotank River Watershed is found in Northeast North Carolina beginning in the Great Dismal Swamp at the Virginia/North Carolina border and flows into the Albemarle Sound. The watershed provides a transition between spawning grounds and the waters of the Albemarle Sound. The sound serves as a ...
Leonard Zon, who is based at Harvard Medical School, is internationally recognized for his pioneering work in hematology and stem cell biology. His lab uses zebrafish as a model to understand blood cell development and, in recent years, has made inspiring breakthroughs in the treatment of blood diseases ...
Regenerative medicine has the promise to alleviate morbidity and mortality caused by organ dysfunction, longstanding injury and trauma. Although regenerative approaches for a few diseases have been highly successful, some organs either do not regenerate well or have no current treatment approach to ...
Control of the extracellular environment of inner ear hair cells by ionic transporters is crucial for hair cell function. In addition to inner ear hair cells, aquatic vertebrates have hair cells on the surface of their body in the lateral line system. The ionic environment of these cells also appears ...
Anesthetics are drugs that reversibly relieve pain, decrease body movements and suppress neuronal activity. Most drugs only cover one of these effects; for instance, analgesics relieve pain but fail to block primary fiber responses to noxious stimuli. Alternately, paralytic drugs block synaptic transmission ...
