PDFAbstract:In this paper, the level of awareness of the academic community and industries in the Province of Bataan regarding the 3D printing technology was determined. Specifically, it aims to assess the perceived knowledge of the respondents from the academe, industry and government agencies about the existence, working principles, applications and benefits of 3D printing. Survey Questionnaires were administered to three-thousand and one (N=3001) participants composed of students, faculty and administrat...

PDFAbstract:This work focused on the development of an empirical model which encapsulated factor effects and factor interactions that affect the capacity of titanium dioxide (IV) (titania) impregnated rice husk ash (RHA) and coco coir dust (CCD) to remove amoxicillin dissolve in aqueous solution. Variables that were considered in this work were the following: initial amoxicillin concentration (ppm), time (min), titania impregnated adsorbent dosage (mg), and type of adsorbent (RHA and CCD). A 16 run ...

PDFAbstract:Secondary metabolites from microorganisms are good sources of natural products which can be utilized for various medical and biotechnological purposes. Several members of the bacterial group Myxobacteria are known to be prolific producers of secondary metabolites. Philippine forest soils are rich habitats for Myxobacteria which could produce secondary metabolites with potential novel biological activities. Soils from Mt. Makiling in Laguna and from Mt. Malinao in Albay were collected for the iso...

PDFAbstract:Hypersensitive response (HR) is a key feature of plant immunity that sacrifices through programmed cell death (PCD) the already infected cells and thereby restricts the growth and further invasion of pathogens. Rice (Oryza sativa) lesion mimic mutants (LMM) manifest disease phenotype in the absence of pathogen and are monocots’ model organisms in unraveling the molecular mechanism of HR-induced PCD. The LMM 6321-2 used in this study was from an ethyl methanesulfonate-generated mutant accession...

PDFAbstract:The study assessed the existing supply chains for dried sardines and identified areas for improvement. The sites covered were the provinces of Camarines Sur, Sorsogon, and Masbate. There are five major supply chains for dried sardines in the Bicol region, with Granadino supply chain as the biggest. The processors generate the highest ROC while the fisherfolks incur net loss. The fisherfolks and the processors have very high-efficiency levels, while the traders have lower efficiency level. The pr...

PDFAbstract:This paper provides an analysis of the stakeholder’s perception about the crab-lying in technology as a resource enhancement strategy for swimming crabs. The study was implemented in collaboration with regional State Universities and Colleges. Data collection was carried out from a randomly selected 58 key informant-respondents. The interview consists of four major aspects, which include knowledge, attitude, practices and perception. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Result ...

PDFAbstract:In the attempt to provide an alternative mode to deliver the competencies of the Philippine K to 12 Junior Science Curriculum, the researchers explored thematic instruction. Cognizant to the process is the identification of the themes for the pedagogy. The researchers used a qualitative research design with document analysis procedures for the identification of the theme and expert interviews for its validation. Upon the document analysis of the different curricular reforms in the Philippines, f...
