Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Parallel Logical Operations with Biomolecular ComputingMahnaz Kadkhoda, Ali A. PouyanBiomolecular computing is the computational method that uses the potential of DNA as a parallel computing device. DNA computing can be used to solve NP-complete problems. An appropriate application of DNA computation is large-scale evaluation of parallel computation models such as Boolean Circuits. In this study, we present a molecular-based algorithm for evaluation of Nand-based Boolean Circuits. The contribution of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mathematical Modeling Approach to Characterize Hormesis, Caloric Restriction and Toxicity in Mortality Data from Toxicity StudiesPatricia J. NeafseyThe mortality of a population reflects the combined effects of natural aging with environmental insults (e.g. toxicant exposure, caloric restriction, over feeding, infections, etc.). No single endpoint, such as carcinogenesis, completely describes toxicant-induced effects in laboratory animals. Mathematical models of mortality and time-dependent exposure to toxicants can yield indices of net injury from all causes. With careful manipulation of diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOpen ended-coaxial Cable Measurements of Saturated Sandy SoilsAlberto GodioThe application of electromagnetic methods in the radar and micro-wave frequency band allows the fluid content of soils to be estimated; the heuristic or physically-based models permit to relate the observed electrical permittivity of the soils with the porosity and fluid saturation. The role of the effect of the free water and bound water in the overall electromagnetic behaviour of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,800 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLab Tests for the Remediation of a PCE Polluted Site by Means of HRC ReactantMaria Chiara Zanetti, Silvia FioreThe injection of reactants is a remediation technology that may be applied both in the vadose zone and in groundwater. In this work a new reagent is examined for the remediation of the vadose zone and groundwater of an industrial site polluted by perchloroethylene (PCE). The tested reactant is the HRC (Hydrogen Release Compound, Regenesis, USA), a reducing agent which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Phenotypically Suppressed Cancer Cell As a Therapeutic TargetKimberly D. Kyker, Jessica E. Thorpe, Satyendra S. Shenoy et al.Bladder cancer recurs in up to 70% of patients judged to be tumor-free after treatment. Like other cancers, delayed appearance of metastases is common. These findings suggest the malignant phenotype can be suppressed, to emerge later. Following up on previous research in our laboratory showing that normal extracellular matrix can suppress the malignant phenotype of bladder cancers, we here demonstrate … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,471 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModel Classification for Predicting the Post-Translational Modification (PTM) Glycosylation in Sequence O Using an Extreme Gradient Boosting AlgorithmDamayanti, Sutyarso et al.Post Translational Modification (PTM) is an important mechanism involved in regulating protein function. Post-translational modification refers to the addition of covalent and enzymatic modifications of proteins in protein biosynthesis, which has an important role in modifying protein function and regulating gene expression. One of the post-translational modifications is glycosylation. Glycosylation is the addition of a sugar group to a protein … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 7 · 29 Apr 2024 · 5,554 accessesView PDFCite
