Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling A Multi-Compartments Biological System with Membrane ComputingRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd. ZinProblem statement: Most of the biological systems have been hierarchical in structure with processes interacting between different compartments. Membrane computing formalism has provided modeling capabilities in representing the structure of biological systems. Approach: This study was carried to investigate the modeling of a multi-compartment biological system by using membrane computing formalism. The hormone-induced calcium oscillations in liver cells which was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2010 · 7,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel Checking the Biological Model of Membrane Computing with Probabilistic Symbolic Model Checker by Using Two Biological SystemsRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd. Zin, Zarina ShukorProblem statement: Membrane computing formalism has provided better modeling capabilities for biological systems in comparison to conventional mathematical models. Model checking could be used to reason about the biological system in detail and with precision by verifying formally whether membrane computing model meets the properties of the system. Approach: This study was carried to investigate the preservation of properties of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 6,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Coupled Mathematical Model for a Temperature Dependant Blood Perfusion in Heterogeneous Biological Tissues during Microwave HeatingE. A. Adebile, B. N. Akintewe, K. M. OwolabiProblem statement: The temperature variation in heterogeneous three layered biological tissues was investigated. Approach: The blood perfusion was considered to be temperature dependent. The heating modalities were taking to go on simultaneously in each of the regions on the one hand and also sequentially in another arrangement. The asymptotic series solution was modified for the three layers and the matching … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Causal Agent of Sunflower Head and Stem Rot Disease, by Use of Soil borne Actinomycetes IsolatesF. Baniasadi, G. H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: High level of biosafety and non adverse effects on the environment of biocontrol strategies of pest management, are priorities of tomorrow's world agriculture. Actinomycetes are active biocontrol agents due to their antagonistic properties against wide range of plant pathogens particularly fungi. Fungal pathogens are liable for a big part of damages in agriculture economy. Approach: In the present … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigations on the Grasping Contact Analysis of Biological Tissues With Applications in Minimally Invasive SurgeryAli Bonakdar, Javad Dargahi, Rama BhatAnalytical and finite element methods are employed to determine the contact pressure on the surface of a tissue being grasped by an endoscopic grasper, in Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS). Normally, an endoscopic grasper is corrugated (teeth-like) in order to grasp slippery tissues. It is highly important to avoid damage to the tissues while grasping and manipulation during endoscopic surgery. Therefore, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of pH on the Conformation and Biological Activity of Clostridium septicum Alpha-toxin, a Pore-forming HemolysinB.M. Hang'ombe, T. Kohda, M. Mukamoto, S. KozakiThe effects of pH on the pore-forming Clostridium septicum alpha-toxin that causes myonecrosis was assessed at pH 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0 by measuring circular dichroism and its biological activity. Incubation of the toxin at pH 5.0 increased the hemolytic activity measured in murine red blood cells. On the other hand, incubation of the toxin at pH 9.0 drastically reduces the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Role of Chichorium intybus Extract Against Renal Toxicity Induced by Magnetite Silver Nanoparticles in Male RatsDoha M. Beltagy, Ehab Tousson, Nabiha I Abdo, Batoul M. IzzularabMagnetite silver nanoparticles (Fe3O4/AgNPs) symbolize a new candidate in several industrial and biological products for their activities, simple preparation and low synthesis costs. Many studies recommended the usage of Fe3O4/AgNPs to overcome lacking biocompatibility of AgNPs inside the body. However, Fe3O4/AgNPs also has toxic effects on kidney tissues. In this study, AgNPs was synthesized on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2021 · 6,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPCR Diagnosis for the Identification of the Virulent Gene of Salmonella in Poultry MeatD. K. Zhanabayeva, A. Y. Paritova, G. K. Murzakaeva et al.The purpose of this study was to conduct microbiological studies of poultry meat imported into Mongolia and establish the serotypes and plasmids of Salmonella and determine the virulence of the gene encoding antibiotic resistance and its transmigratory properties. The PCR molecular biological method was used and according to the results, Salmonella enteritidis was identified in chicken carcasses of the American … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 27 Aug 2021 · 6,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProposed Soil Quality Index for Rehabilitated Tropical Forest Sites in MalaysiaDaljit Singh Karam, Arifin Abdu, Keeren Sundara Rajoo et al.A proposed soil quality index named Tropical Soil Quality Index 2 (TSQI2) was developed in this study using statistical analysed data of selected properties (physical, chemical and biological) of composite soil samples collected from natural, secondary and rehabilitated forests of Chikus and Tapah Hill Forest Reserves, Perak, Malaysia. Results of soil evaluation using TSQI2 showed higher values for planted forest … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Dec 2016 · 8,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bioactivity of Fucoxanthin from Undaria pinnatifida in VitroYiting Li, Ye Liu, Yuepeng Wang et al.Fucoxanthin, a marine carotenoid, can be found in marine algae and some marine invertebrates, has remarkable biological properties for human health.
