Accumulated data has been proposed that viral genotypes and sub genotypesplay an important role in clinical outcome and antiviral monitoring of chronic HBV infection. Genotyping and quantitating of HBV DNA levels molecularly is relatively expensive. On the other side, serum HBsAg quantification has been recently standardized by automated quantitati

Owner identification is an important aspect of improving network visibility and enhancing network security within local area networks deploying IPv6. This paper presents a simulation study for owner identification in an enterprise local area network from their IPv6 addresses. The study is based around the reverse implementation (many-to-one mapping

In the next few years, the demands and challenges for the 4G (and its derivatives ie LTE-A) alternative must be addressed to meet the prime objectives of the upcoming 5G mobile networks such as increased capacity, improved data rate, low latency, and better quality of service. To achieve these objectives, drastic improvements need to be made in cel

Colloidal gold nanoparticles have been successfully prepared using a simple two-electrode cells connected to a DC power supply. During the electro-dissolution-reduction process, the bulk gold at the anode oxidized into gold cations which then reacted with the chloride ions to form aurochloride complex. The complex ions were then reduced by the citr

This study focus on the cross-sectional image of sandwich panel; the kenaf dispersion in core and the skin core interaction. Fracture image is the image outcome of flexural test. The main element of the core structure is kenaf and the skin used in this study is galvanised steel sheet. Skin thickness being used in this research is 1.0 mm and 1.2 mm.
