NLRP10 is a nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor that functions as an intracellular pattern recognition receptor for microbial products. Here, we generated a Nlrp10−/− mouse to delineate the role of NLRP10 in the host immune response and found that Nlrp10−/− dendritic cells (DCs) elicited sub-optimal IFNγ production by antigenspecific CD4+ T cells compared to wild-type (WT) DCs. In response to T-cell encounter, CD40 ligation or Toll-like receptor 9 stimulation, Nlrp10−/− DCs produced low levels of IL-12, due to a substantial decrease in NF-κB activation. Defective IL-12 production was also evident in vivo and affected IFNγ production by CD4+ T cells. Upon …

Crossflow Ultrafiltration For Removing Direct-15 Dye From Wastewater Of Textile Industry, Ahmad A.L., Puasa S.W., Abiding S. 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Crossflow Ultrafiltration For Removing Direct-15 Dye From Wastewater Of Textile Industry, Ahmad A.L., Puasa S.W., Abiding S.

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

Ultrafiltration membrane was used to treat the effluent from textile industries. Crossflow ultrafiltration using GN polymeric membrane was used to remove the dye from textile effluent. A synthetic textile effluent of Direct-15 dye was used. The study focused through the effect of feed concentration, transmembrane pressure and solution’s pH on the permeate flux and percentage of dye removal were investigated. Dye concentration had significant effects on flux values. Under the fixed pressures and pH, the flux decreased while the dye rejection increased with increasing feed concentration. Transmembrane pressure also had significant effect on flux values. Under the fixed feed concentration …


Timing Synchronization For Mc-Cdma Systems Using A Time-Multiplexed Synchronization Channel, Ky Pham Hong, Long Nguyen Duc 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Timing Synchronization For Mc-Cdma Systems Using A Time-Multiplexed Synchronization Channel, Ky Pham Hong, Long Nguyen Duc

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

In this paper, we present a synchronization algorithm for Multi-Carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) systems using a time-multiplexed synchronization channel. The simulations results show that a system using proposed algorithm has much higher timing detection probability than using other algorithms, especially in exponential decay multipath fading.

Effectiveness Of Selected Entomopathogenic Fungi In Packed Rice Grain At Room Temperature Against Corcyra Cephalonica Stainton, Samodra Hendrawan, Ibrahim Yusof Bin 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Effectiveness Of Selected Entomopathogenic Fungi In Packed Rice Grain At Room Temperature Against Corcyra Cephalonica Stainton, Samodra Hendrawan, Ibrahim Yusof Bin

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

Eight isolates of entomopathogenic fungi were evaluated as dried conidia against the rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica. In bioassays two isolates of Beauveria bassiana (BbGc and BbPs) and one isolate of Metarhizium anisopliae (MaPs) consistently gave high mortality to C. cephalonica larvae. Formulations in either kaolin, talc or tapioca flour (20 % w/w a.i.) thoroughly mixed with long grain rice in plastic cups (8 cm diameter by 5 cm) gave complete larval mortality by the 12th day of treatment. However, in general those formulated in kaolin and talc were more efficacious and faster to kill compared to those formulated in tapioca …

The recently introduced 6-dye Yfiler Plus multiplex which includes 27 Y-STR loci (DYS576, DYS389I, DYS635, DYS389II, DYS627, DYS460, DYS458, DYS19, YGATAH4, DYS448, DYS391, DYS456, DYS390, DYS438, DYS392, DYS518, DYS570, DYS437, DYS385 a/b, DYS449, DYS393, DYS439, DYS481, DYF387S1a/b and DYS533) has been used to study 343 UAE Arab male individuals using Yfiler Plus® amplification kit. This set includes seven rapidly mutating loci (RM Y-STRs). These RM Y-STRs are useful for discriminating between closely related and unrelated males.. According to measures of genetic diversity the highest diversity were observed at loci DYS385=(0.94984), DYF387S1=(0.930523) and DYS449=(0.895402). Therefore, these loci should be considered the …


Optical Resonance Of A Three-Level System In Semiconductor Quantum Dots, Hieu Nguyen Van, Ha Nguyen Bich 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Optical Resonance Of A Three-Level System In Semiconductor Quantum Dots, Hieu Nguyen Van, Ha Nguyen Bich

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

The optical resonance of a three-level system of the strongly correlated electrons in the twolevel semiconductor quantum dot interacting with the linearly polarized monochromatic electromagnetic radiation is studied. With the application of the Green function method the expressions of the state vectors and the energies of the stationary states of the system in the regime of the optical resonance are derived. The Rabi oscillations of the electron populations at different levels as well as the Rabi splitting of the peaks in the photon emission spectra are investigated.PACS numbers: 71.35.-y, 78.55.-m, 78.67.Hc


Effects Of Habitat Fragmentation On Genetic Diversity In Cycas Balansae (Cycadaceae), Tam Nguyen Minh, Trang Nguyen T. Phuong, Giang Vu T. Ha, Triest L. Triest 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Effects Of Habitat Fragmentation On Genetic Diversity In Cycas Balansae (Cycadaceae), Tam Nguyen Minh, Trang Nguyen T. Phuong, Giang Vu T. Ha, Triest L. Triest

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

Habitat fragmentation is a serious threat to species survival. In Vietnam, Cycas balansae has been considered as threatened species because of the reduction and fragmentation of its habitats and over-exploitation. We assessed genetic variability and the pattern of population structure among six populations sampled in four provinces: Hoa Binh, Ha Nam, Ninh Binh and Quang Ninh. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was performed on leaf tissues from 152 individuals representing 6 populations of C. balansae. Six of twelve enzyme systems were used to estimate genetic diversity at population and species levels. Eleven loci were examined. The allozyme data showed high levels of …


A Fuzzy Logic Based Method For Analysing Test Results, Vinh Le Xuan, Quan Tran Hong 2017 Universiti Brunei Darussalam

A Fuzzy Logic Based Method For Analysing Test Results, Vinh Le Xuan, Quan Tran Hong

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

Network operators must perform many tasks to ensure smooth operation of the network, such as planning, monitoring, etc. Among those tasks, regular testing of network performance, network errors and troubleshooting is very important. Meaningful test results will allow the operators to evaluate network performanceof any shortcomings and to better plan for network upgrade. Due to the diverse and mainly unquantifiable nature of network testing results, there is a needs to develop a method for systematically and rigorously analysing these results.In this paper, we present STAM (System Test-result Analysis Method) which employs a bottom-up hierarchical processing approach using Fuzzy logic. STAM …
