Biological inspired routing or bio-inspired routing is a new heuristic routing algorithm in wireless sensor network, which is inspired from biological activities of insects. ACO is ants’ inspired routing algorithm ACO, which has the ability to find shortest path and re-establish the new route in the case of route failure. In order to improve the network performance i.e. increase network lifetim...

An impedimetric biosensor platform for bio-affinity assays was developed based on real-time, label-free electrochemical detection performed via direct interface to electronic digital data processing. The sensor array consists of 15 gold microelectrode pairs enclosed in three reaction chambers and bio-functionalized with specific DNA probes. The impedance change caused by specific target analyte...

This study investigated co-liquefaction of microalgae (Chlorella pyrenoidosa, CP) and lignocellulosic biomass (Rice husk, RH) in subcritical water for bio-oil production. The effects of liquefaction temperature (200-350°C), residence time (10-90min), solid concentration (10-30wt.%) and mass ratio of CP/RH on product distribution were investigated. The results showed that the highest yield of bi...

We report a detailed compositional characterization of a bio-crude oil and aqueous by-product from hydrothermal liquefaction of Nannochloropsis salina by direct infusion Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) in both positiveand negative-ionization modes. The FTICR MS instrumentation approach facilitates direct assignment of elemental composition to >7000 resolv...

Production of renewable commodity chemicals from bio-oil derived from fast pyrolysis of biomass has received considerable interests, but hindered by the presence of innumerable components in bio-oil. In present work, we proposed and experimentally demonstrated an innovative approach combining atmospheric distillation of bio-oil with co-pyrolysis for mass production of renewable chemicals from b...

background: hyaline cartilage defects exhibit a major challenge in the field of orthopedic surgery owing to its limited repair capacity. on the other hand, mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are regarded as potent cells with a property of cartilage regeneration. we aimed to optimize marrow-derived msc chondrogenic culture using a small bioactive molecule referred to as bio. methods: mscs from the ma...
