As the result of this designing, we got an emission free HVAC Systems with low GWP (Global Warming Potential) and ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) – providing best comfort condition with reduction trunk duct arrangement and low life cycle cost. However production side of the Ducting Systems will become more expensive and complex due to numbers of joints and duct sizes but after applying it properly – better performance and less frictional losses lead the system to high Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100999,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Science Review A: Natural Science and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.psra.2016.09.010","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74522887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Enhancing accuracy, increasing speed of operation and reducing costs are the primary performance objectives in the improvements to design and manufacture of devices or robots. One of the best ways to achieve these aims is using devices or robots instead of human resources. The injection pump we designed and manufactured in this work is a type of robot that has applications in medicine and health centres. This device is used for patients who are unable to receive foods and drugs orally. By examining similar foreign devices in Ardebil health centres, studying their advantages and disadvantages, and researching health centre requirements for these devices, we designed and constructed such a device for the first time in this country. The most important items achieved in these investigations include time, accuracy, speed of drug injection and cost reduction. The shortest time we achieved using this device was approximately 6 s for 1 cc of drug or fluid. We also calculated the speed of injection for 1 cc of drug to be approximately 0.17 cc per second, which was an ideal value compared to that of similar foreign devices. In comparison to the cost of similar foreign devices, our device has a lower cost due to simplicity and high performance. To achieve these results, we designed a new device engine. In this design we used a three-step engine that has a different algorithm than similar devices. In this engine, every cc was injected in 2000 steps of the engine, and each step was 3 ms, achieving 6 s for each cc of injection.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100999,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Science Review A: Natural Science and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.psra.2016.09.015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90523702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study was undertaken to prepare crude extracts of neem leaves with different polarity organic solvents by using a maceration method and assessing phytochemical screening, the total phenol content and antioxidant activity by the spectroscopic method. The leaf samples collected from the Bahla, Ad Dakliyah region were used for extraction by a maceration method using different organic solvents with increasing polarities. Biochemical screening was determined by established methods. The total phenol content and free radical scavenging activity were assessed by conventional Folin–Ciocalteu reagent (FCR) and α, α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods. Biochemical screening of the crude extracts of neem leaves revealed positive results of flavonoids, saponins, steroids, alkaloids, amino acid and tannins. However, triterpenoid and anthraquinone were not detected in the crude extracts of neem leaves. The total phenol content of crude extracts from the leaves of the plant selected to be the gallic acid equivalent was found to be the highest in the ethyl acetate extract containing phenol compounds (3.58 g/100 g of dry powder) and the lowest in the water extract (0.42 g/100 g of dry powder). The highest antioxidant activity was found in the butanol extract and the lowest was in the hexane extract of the plant selected to be equivalent to DPPH. The crude extracts of neem showed significant antioxidant activity; thus, these extracts could be used as natural antioxidants for the preparation of medicines to treat different diseases.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100999,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Science Review A: Natural Science and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.psra.2016.09.013","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80444163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
