BACKGROUND: Garlic (Allium sativum) is known for its anti-bacterial properties, but information on its effects against bacteria species that are important in fish diseases is scarce. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this research was to use garlic as a natural product to improve the aquatic animal health status so as to compensate the demand for environment-friendly products for sustainable aquacultur...

In this paper we have addressed the problem of automatic identification of product features from customer reviews. Costumers, retailors, and manufacturers are popularly using customer reviews on websites for product reputation and sales forecasting. Opinion mining application have been potentially employed to summarize the huge collectionof customer reviews for decision making. In this paper we...

This paper describes a hierarchical neural network we propose for sentence classification to extract product information from product documents. The network classifies each sentence in a document into attribute and condition classes on the basis of word sequences and sentence sequences in the document. Experimental results showed the method using the proposed network significantly outperformed ...

Automatic extraction of features from unstructured text is one of the challenging problems of Opinion Mining. The trend of getting products and services reputation from online resources such as web blogs and customer feedback is increasing day by day. Therefore efficient system is required to automatically extract products features and the opinion of consumers about all aspects of the products....

Chromium oxide nanoparticles (NPs) were rapidly synthesized by reduction of potassium dichromate solution with Arachis hypogaea leaf extract containing reducing sugars which act as reducing agent. The results indicated that the aldehyde groups present in the plant extract played an important role in the formation of Cr2O3 nanoparticles. The purification process of the Cr2O3 product does not req...

Genetic analysis of protein secretion in Escherichia coli has identified secY/prlA and secA as components of the secretory apparatus. We have examined the roles of the secY(prlA) gene product (an integral membrane protein) and the soluble secA gene product in translocation of OmpA and alkaline phosphatase precursors in an in vitro system. The protein translocation defect of the secY24 mutation ...

Objective: Fungal infection is a very serious cosmetic problem which is of utmost concern globally, one such infection being Dandruff. Finding antidandruff molecules from natural sources is the current research focus among cosmetic researchers. Medicinal plants may offer a valuable source for antidandruff molecules. Hence, in the present study, Vernonia cinerea L. was studied for its antidandru...

Product family planning has received much attention from both academia and industries. It aims at incorporating customers’ needs into design elements of product family. The main challenger for product family planning originates from difficulties in mapping customer needs to product family specifications. This paper intends to develop a method to improve the mapping process by reusing knowledge ...

This paper presents a new approach of useroriented design for transforming users’ perception into product elements design. An experimental study on mobile phones is conducted to examine how product form and product design parameters affect consumer’s perception of a product. The concept of Kansei Engineering is used to extract the experimental samples as a data base for neural networks (NNs) wi...

Word-of-Mouth plays its great important role on the base of social network in affecting consumers’ shopping behaviour. However, it is little known how firms make a self-suitable marketing strategy according to both online and offline WOM effect in their product diffusion. This article investigates a new product diffusion process taking both offline WOM and online WOM effect into consideration. ...
