In this paper describe the different feeding technique for wireless microstrip antenna, which are microstrip line feed, coaxial plane feed, proximity coupled feed and aperture couple feed. Microstrip line and coaxial probe feeds are contacting scheme, in which RF power directly to the radiating patch. Proximity and Aperture coupled feeds are non contacting schemes ,in which electromagnetic fiel...

The feeding and rumination behaviour of dairy cows can be monitored by different techniques and can provide useful information for dairy herd management. Among feeding characteristics, individual feed intake of cows is of utmost interest, but as weighing troughs have high space and cost requirements their implementation is limited to the research area. The objective of the present study was to ...

ecotoxicological studies that use histological techniques enjoy descriptive approach in explaining the damages to tissues. in the present study, a rank-based estimation for linear models was used to examine significant difference between levels of cypermethrin on histological changes of the liver in aphanius sophiae . the toxicity of cypermethrin associated with certain environmental factors su...

OBJECTIVE: To present an updated review on practical aspects of breast-feeding promotion and management. METHODS: Review of relevant publications from scientific journals, technical books and publications by international organizations. RESULTS: Nowadays, exclusive breast-feeding is recommended for a period of approximately 6 months, and maintenance of complementary breast-feeding should contin...

Maternal age effects on parenting and family outcomes are of increasing interest because of the demographic shift toward older maternal age at first birth. Maternal age is also of interest because of the greater use of assisted reproductive techniques (ART) to bypass age-related infertility in couples trying to conceive late in the reproductive life cycle of the woman. The aim of the present st...

Background: Weight is one of the main indicators physical growth and brain development in infants, especially preterm infants. Feeding infants an ongoing challenge for those charge feeding with very low birth weights. difficulties premature lead to long hospital stays increased costs. Objectives: This study aimed compare effects cup finger techniques on weight gain Methods: randomized clinical ...

We present a complete hardware and software system for collecting and quantifying continuous measures of feeding behaviors in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. The FLIC (Fly Liquid-Food Interaction Counter) detects analog electronic signals as brief as 50 µs that occur when a fly makes physical contact with liquid food. Signal characteristics effectively distinguish between different type...

The use of safe and cost-effective endoscopic techniques for the placement of tubes in the gastrointestinal tract has led to increased utilization of long-term enteral feeding in patients with impaired GI function, including many cancer patients. Of an estimated 148,000 US patients who received long-term enteral feeding outside hospitals in 1992, 43% were cancer patients. The technique of percu...
