Nanocomposite Based on Albumin Protein and Review of Its Applications in Medical Engineering

Albumin is a protein macromolecule that it has been attractive since the early 20th century and has several therapeutic applications. Albumin is an aboundant serum with good biocompatibility, hematopoiesis and biodegradability in blood. The existence of multiple functional groups makes it possible to carry significant amounts of therapeutic and diagnostic factors, as well as targeting factors. ...

Two Dimensional Structural Analysis and Expression of a New Staphylococcus aureus Adhesin Based Fusion Protein

Objective(s) Staphylococcus aureus is a foremost source of numerous nosocomial and community acquired infections. Antibiotic therapy for vancomycin resistant S. aureus (VRSA) can not promise the eradication of infections. Since adhesion is the major route of infections, adhesin based vaccine could suppress S. aureus infections. Fibronectin binding protein A (FnBPA) and clumping factor A (ClfA)...

Identifying Factors Associated With Hypertension Using Structural Equation Modeling: A Population-Based Study

Objectives: Hypertension is a global major health challenge and mechanisms related to the risk factors associated with it are poorly understood. Therefore, we used structural modeling to test a hypothesized model to identify factors associated with hypertension.  Methods: A cross-sectional population based survey, was performed and the data related to a random representative sample of 9704 sub...

Association of Non-Organizational Factors and Occupational Accidents: A Field Study based on Structural Equation Modeling

Background: Non-organizational or non-occupational factors are among the most important risk factors that significantly influence the emergence of occupational accidents. This study aimed to investigate the association between non-organizational factors and occupational accidents. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study the structural equation modeling was applied on the data that was...
