چکیده

In this article we study the effectiveness of alternative integer programming formulations for area constrained harvest scheduling, known as the area restriction model (ARM). Empirical assessment of the effect of area constraints on the optimal objective value of these alternative approaches is carried out, focusing on the root Linear Programming relaxation. We also examine how this relates to the effectiveness of these formulations when solved by a commercial solver, CPLEX.

Metabolite Parameters as an Appropriate Alternative Approach for Assessment of Bioequivalence of Two Verapamil Formulations

A bioequivalence study of two verapamil formulations (generic verapamil tablets and Isoptin® tablets) was performed by comparing pharmacokinetic parameters of the parent drug and its major metabolite, norverapamil following a single dose administration of 80 mg verapamil hydrochloride in 22 healthy volunteers according to a randomized, two-period, crossover-design study. Moreover, the feasibili...

Arm circumference to height-ratio (AHtR) – an alternate tool to identify overweight and obesity in children aged 5-12 years

Background and Objective: Childhood obesity is one of the major national health concerns. World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends Body mass index (BMI) as the standard epidemiological measurement of obesity. The BMI is not quite independent of stature, especially at the younger ages. Hence, an alternative tool like arm-circumference-to-height ratio (AHtR) is necessitated. The aim of this stu...

Modeling of Compression Curves of Flexible Polyurethane Foam with Variable Density, Chemical Formulations and Strain Rates

Flexible Polyurethane (PU) foam samples with different densities and chemical formulations were tested in quasi-static stress-strain compression tests. The compression tests were performed using the Lloyd LR5K Plus instrument at fixed compression strain rate of 0.033 s-1 and samples were compressed up to 70% compression strains. All foam samples were tested in the foam rise direction and their ...

Endotoxin Contamination of Large Volume Parenterals as Detected by Limulus Amebocyte Lysate as an Alternative to Rabbit Pyrogen Test

The possibility of replacing the rabbit pyrogen test by the Limulus Amebocyte lysate (LAL) test, as a final release test for Large Volume Parenterals (LVPs) was investigated. The sensitivity and specificity of the LAL test and rabbit pyrogen assay were studied by means of artificially contaminated parenterals. Various LVPs (mostly containing electrolytes) were spiked with 0.5 and 5 EUlml o...
