Computational BioEngineering: Unraveling Cell Mechanics using Computers New Jersey Governor’s School of Engineering and Technology

Cell motility plays a vital role in many biological processes and organisms. This project focuses on computationally modeling pseudopod growth, which is one mechanism by which cell motility occurs. Pseudopods grow through actin polymerization, a process by which actin molecules synthesize into chains, or filaments. These filaments form a network of actin within the cell that pushes the cell mem...

While the bacteriocin Nisin has been employed by the food industry for 60 y, it remains the only bacteriocin to be extensively employed as a food preservative. This is despite the fact that the activity of Nisin against several food spoilage and pathogenic bacteria is poor and the availability of many other bacteriocins with significant potential in this regard. An alternative route to address ...

concepts are much harder to represent because they have no tangible form. Examples include the concepts of justice, freedom, honesty, and family. Designers often use a visual strategy where one concrete concept shows a snapshot of the abstract concept, such

A mathematical model is presented for both batch and continuous cultures of microorganisms utilizing inhibitory substrates. The key feature of the model is the use of a inhibition function to relate substrate concentration and specific growth rate. Simulation studies show that the primary result of inhibition by substrate in a batch culture is an increase in the lag time whereas in continuous c...
