Face detection technique recognition is developed by using and fine tuning the Gabor Wavelet parameters. An extensive study of these parameters have been made and checked on a large acquired data set of face images, for extracting the features. The Facial data consists of 320 frontal face 180 non-face images. (Total=500 images) Artificial Neural Network is then used on the extracted features fo...

Seventeen patients received placebo medication during a 12-week run-in period, followed by four double-blind study periods of six weeks each, during which time placebo, 80 mg, 160 mg and 320 mg propranolol dosages were administered. Examination of the frequency of angina episodes and nonprophylactic nitroglycerin consumption revealed significant beneficial clinical responses for both the 160 an...

The content of potato glycoalkaloid (PGA) was investigated in 27 cultivars of raw potatoes and 31 potatoes in commercial foods with peel. The investigation of the 27 cultivars of potatoes showed different contents of glycoalkaloids. "May queen" and "Sherry" showed high contents of PGA (180 mg/kg and 320 mg/kg, respectively) among the raw potatoes of middle size (ca. 100 g). On the other hand, "...

An experiment was carried out to evaluate the serum total protein, glucose, liver, kidney and haematological response varied levels of exogenous L-Selenomethionine (L-SeMet). Twenty four male rabbit bucks, about 10 months old were randomly allotted treatments in a completely randomized design. Blood samples collected at day 21 42 from bucks processed for haematocrit, haemoglobin, erythrocytes, ...

Purpose: To investigate the effect of Flueggea leucopyrus Wild aqueous extract (FLAE) on the urinary output of rats. Method: Three different doses of FLAE (500, 1000 and 1500 mgkg), furosemide (13 mg kg as diuretic reference) and distilled water (as control) were orally administered to healthy adult hydrated rats. Cumulative urine output was monitored hourly over 6 h. Selected urinary parameter...

Salt tolerance of new wheat cultivar Banysoif 1 was investigated to find relevant culturing strategy in saline areas. Wheat cv. Banysoif 1 was grown in clay soil for 7 days in different pots. Then seedlings were irrigated by different saline waters (0, 60, 120, 180, 240 and 320 mM NaCl) near the field capacity. Plants were kept in the natural condition under these saline levels for 155 days. Fr...
