Research Publications (2006 to 2010)

Molecular methods for rapid detection and differentiation of serogroups(A, B, D and Untypeables)of Pasteurella muliocida (PM) isolated from 1996 to 2004 in Malaysia were studied. A total of 125 strains were isolated from different domestic animal species (cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats, pigs, rabbits, dogs and cats), avian species (chickens, ducks and turkeys) and wild animals such as deer, tigers, orang-utan (primates, Pangopygmaeus) and marmosets. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) serotyping was 100% species-specific, more robust, accurate and highly specific in differentiating serogroups of P. multocida. All the P. multocida strains exhibited drug resistance against triple-sulfonamides and streptomycin and were sensitive to …

Preliminary Investigations Of The Endoparasite Component Communities Of Stray Cats From Kuala Lumpur, S.A.A. Syed-Khalil, S.N. Mohd Zain

Research Publications (2006 to 2010)

Investigations into the endoparasite fauna of stray cats from Kuala Lumpur were carried out to determine the present population and diversity. Post-mortem examinations of selected organ from 85 cats revealed that 87.1% cats harbored endoparasites, with an average of 36.65 worms per infected cat. Endoparasite recovered consists of five nematode species (Toxocara catti, Toxocara malayensis, Ancylostoma ceylanicum, Ancylostoma braziiiensie and Strongyloides sp.), two cestode species (Dipylidium caninum and Taenia taeniaformis) and one trematode species (Platynosomum fastosum). Toxocara sp. was shown to have the highest prevalence and mean intensity values. Present observations provided additional insights to the environment, behavior and diet …

Micro-Level Design For Multimedia-Enhanced Online Courses, Chareen Snelson, Patt Elison-Bowers

Educational Technology Faculty Publications and Presentations

Micro-level instructional design refers to the practice of designing and producing small units of instruction. At the microlevel processes such as shifting focus to small-scale design, applying learning theory, managing the technology, and evaluating the micro-design are implemented. The shift in focus to small-scale design centers attention on design of the multimedia products implemented in the online classroom. Theories of multimedia learning are selected and applied to the micro-level design to maximize the potential for effective instructional communication and learning. Managing the technology involves accounting for issues of compression, file size, and appropriate format for Web-based delivery. Evaluation, supported by …

Emergency Federalism: Calling On The States In Perilous Times, Adam M. Giuliano Dec 2007

Emergency Federalism: Calling On The States In Perilous Times, Adam M. Giuliano

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The attacks of September 11 prompted a historic debate concerning terrorism and domestic emergency response. This ongoing dialogue has driven policy decisions touching upon both liberty and security concerns. Yet despite the enormous effort that has gone into the national response, the role of the sovereign states, and with it federalism, has received comparatively little attention. This Article explores the relevance of federalism within the context of the "War on Terror" and in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Acknowledging that theories of federalism developed elsewhere are insufficient, he outlines a doctrine of 'emergency federalism.' The author argues that the Framers …

Against Expediency: The Ethics Of Education, Gerard Mannion Dec 2007

Against Expediency: The Ethics Of Education, Gerard Mannion

Journal of Catholic Education

This article suggests that church-linked universities and colleges can and should show that there is an alternative to the expediency and pseudo-utilitarian thinking which currently dominates higher education. Such institutions can and should serve as beacons of a virtuous approach to education which can show others a more positive way forward. Theology and ethics”both disciplines mutually informing the other”hold the key to fostering and promoting a true culture of ministry both in the day-to-day existence of universities and colleges and in nurturing young minds to take that culture of ministry out into the wider community.
