Moreover, it sought to assess the acute effects of thermally proce...

Although adaptive control (AC) systems for machine tools have a tremendous potential for improving productivity in manufacturing, their acceptance by industry has been slow. This paper identifies the major research and development areas for AC machine tools, and summarizes the principal developments of the last two decades. Current research at The University of Michigan, which is aimed at the d...

Two huckleberry species, Vaccinium membranaceum and Vaccinium ovatum, native to Pacific Northwestern North America, were evaluated for their total, and individual, anthocyanin and polyphenolic compositions. Vaccinium ovatum had greater total anthocyanin (ACY), total phenolics (TP), oxygen radical absorbing capacity (ORAC), and ferric reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP) than did V. membranaceu...

Bacterial infections caused by multidrug resistant phenotypes constitute a worldwide health concern. The present study was designed to evaluate the in vitro antibacterial activities of the methanol extracts of five medicinal plants: Fagara macrophylla, Canarium schweinfurthii, Myrianthus arboreus, Dischistocalyx grandifolius and Tragia benthamii against a panel of 28 multidrug resistant Gram-ne...

Ethanolic extracts of Canarium schweinfurthii stem bark and Senna alata leaf, and aqueous extract of unripe Carica papaya fruit, at two different doses (150, 400 mg/kg), were evaluated for antihyperglycaemic and hypolipidemic effects on alloxan-induced diabetic rats following daily oral administration for 28 days. While antihyperglycaemic effect was lacking in Senna alata, it was persistent (P<...
