ipad gene is amongst key genes in shigella invasion, known as an antigen. pa20 protein of bacillus anthracic can be separated from native pa protein during the infection and can be found in the serum of the infected patients and make it possible to diagnose the disease. ctxb, a known immune adjuvant, enhances the immunogenicity and is mainly used for the production of recombinant vaccines as a ...

The esterification of free fatty acids (FFA) with methanol is studied using Sulfonated Porous Carbon (SPC) as catalyst. In compare to the amorphous sugar catalyst and protonated Nafion, the proposed catalyst shows stability and high efficient performance in biodiesel production. The highest initial rate of oleic acid conversion is obtained at catalyst loading of 1 mmol H+ and mole ra...

This paper surveys the general theory of operon regulation as first formulated by Goodwin and Griffith, and then goes on to consider in detail models of regulation of tryptophan production by Bliss, Sinha, and Santillan and Mackey, and the interrelationships between them. We further give a linear stability analysis of the Santillan and Mackey model for wild type E. coli as well as three differe...

RANKL exists as three isoforms: RANKL1, 2, and 3. RANKL1 and 3 were reported to be differently expressed upon treatment with some osteotropic factors, but RANKL2 expression could not be reliably determined. Here, we investigated through a mechanistic model, human 293 cells stably transfected with the RANKL2cDNA, the production and modulation of RANKL2 protein stability upon treatment with TNF-α...

The advantages of immobilized enzyme over its soluble counterpart arise from their improved stability andeasy separation from the reaction media, leading to decrease in production cost. Immobilization methodsrange from adsorption onto matrices, entrapment, cross-linking and covalent bonding to prefabricatedcarriers or activated supports. Changes in kinetic properties of immobi...

We study hedonic coalition formation games in which cooperation among the players is restricted by a graph structure: a subset of players can form a coalition if and only if they are connected in the given graph. We investigate the complexity of finding stable outcomes in such games, for several notions of stability. In particular, we provide an efficient algorithm that finds an individually st...

The simultaneous growth and product formation in a microbial culture is an important feature of several laboratory, industrial, and environmental bioprocesses. Metabolic burden associated with product formation in these bioprocesses may lead to growth advantage of a nonproducing mutant leading to a loss of the producing population over time. A simple population dynamics model demonstrates the e...

Stability is a fundamental design property of inventory systems. However, the often exploited linearity assumptions in the current literature create a major gap between theory and practice. In this paper the stability of a constrained production and inventory system with a Forbidden Returns constraint (that is, a non-negative order rate) is studied via a piecewise linear model, an eigenvalue an...
