ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine drying curves of land saffron (Curcuma longa L.) rhizomes at different temperatures and ventilation conditions adjust non-linear regression models, calculate effective diffusion coefficients activation energies. Saffron were randomly collected in natura with a hoe from the soil Rio Verde, Goiás, Brazil. They subsequently sized, sanitized, sliced into 2.63 ...

Many cellular behaviors are regulated by gene regulation networks, kinetics of which is one of the main subjects in the study of systems biology. Because of the low number molecules in these reacting systems, stochastic effects are significant. In recent years, stochasticity in modeling the kinetics of gene regulation networks have been drawing the attention of many researchers. This paper is a...

Rapid-dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) has made significant impact in the characterization and understanding of metabolism that occurs on the sub-minute timescale in several diseases. While significant efforts have been made in developing applications, and in designing rapid-imaging radiofrequency (RF) and magnetic field gradient pulse sequences, very few groups have worked on imp...

We describe Dizzy, a software tool for stochastically and deterministically modeling the spatially homogeneous kinetics of integrated large-scale genetic, metabolic, and signaling networks. Notable features include a modular simulation framework, reusable modeling elements, complex kinetic rate laws, multi-step reaction processes, steady-state noise estimation, and spatial compartmentalization.
