Maneceine in 1894 on rats by depriving them of sleep and examining their behavior. Sleep deprivation is an important part of academic life. It is often quoted “a sound mind in a sound body” to describe the ideal and desirable state of a human being. It can be observed that the functioning of a ‘sound body’ is vital to the efficient working of a ‘sound mind’. To maintain a healthy body it important that the recuperative functions of the body are allowed to efficiently play their role. The most important recuperative or rebuilding function of the body is sleep which is followed by rest, etc. but it is a sad reality that students today seldom get the amount of...

...ANSWERS TO CASES Chapter 1 DiGiorno Pizza: Introducing a Frozen Pizza to Compete with Carry-Out In conducting research for the launching of a new product it is imperative that the target population be identified. In this case, who are the people most likely to be interested in purchasing and consuming frozen pizzas in lieu of carry-out pizzas? How are these people to be identified for sampling (Chapter 7 refers to this group as the “frame”)? Should a test market city or area be used? Why or why not? What mode of survey such as telephone, mail, or personal interview should be used? When should these people be surveyed? Does time of day, day of the week, or season of the year make any difference? What types of measurements should be taken? Some possible measurements might include dollar amounts spent per week of pizza per family, number of pizzas purchased per month, percentage of family pizza consumption that is frozen pizza, and total amount spent per month on take out food. 1. One population that was identified was “pizza lovers”. These people may have been previously identified by market researchers based on number of pizzas purchased per month, use of coupons, or from previous surveys. Another population mentioned in the case was women ages 25 to 54. The advertisements shown on national TV were likely aimed at the general population because Kraft was attempting to achieve broader goals such as brand name recognition and a dissemination...

...this research is to extract essential oils from M. koenigii leaves by using ultrasonic-assisted solvent extraction method. The major constituent of M. koenigii has been reported as caryophyllene and 3-carene which is responsible for the aroma and flavor. This research has focused on the influence of ultrasonic, various natures of solvents, sonication times and also drying method towards the extraction of M.koenigii essential oil. Two types of solvents are used in this research which is ethanol and hexane. In this research, the methods of drying, grinding, extraction, separation and analysis are used and the sample is separated from solvents by using a rotary evaporator to get the essential oil. The sample was analyzed by using a GC-MS to identify the component of M. koenigii essential oil. In this research, the most suitable solvent to produce higher percentage yield is by using ethanol (ultrasonic-assisted solvent extraction of fresh leaves for 30 minutes) and the percentage of oil yield also increased with increasing the time. The major component in M. koenigii leaves is caryophyllene and hexane on the other hand is the best solvent to be used to extract caryophyllene vi ABSTRAK Objektif penyelidikan ini adalah bagi mengekstrak minyak pati M. koenigii dengan...

The purpose of the present study was to develop a musculo-skeletal modeling and simulation approach to investigate the cause-andeffect relationship between a perturbed landing position, i.e., joint angles and trunk orientation, and the peak force in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during jump landing. A two-dimensional musculo-skeletal model was developed and a baseline simulation was obtained reproducing measurement data of a reference landing movement. Based on the baseline simulation, a series...

If left untreated, this growth can spread beyond the lung by process of metastasis into nearby tissue or other parts of the body. Most cancers that start in the lung, known as primary lung cancers, are carcinomas that derive from epithelial cells. The main primary types are small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), also called oat cell cancer, and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The most common symptoms are coughing (including coughing up blood), weight loss, shortness of breath, and chest pains.[1] The most common cause is long-term exposure to tobacco smoke,[2] which causes 80–90% of lung cancers.[1] Nonsmokers account for 10–15% of lung cancer cases,[3] and these cases are often attributed to a combination of genetic factors,[4] and exposure to; radon gas,[4] asbestos,[5] and air pollution[4] including second-hand smoke.[6][7] Lung cancer may be seen on chest radiographs and computed tomography (CT) scans. The diagnosis is confirmed by biopsy[8]...
