Meta-heuristic algorithms inspired by the natural processes are part of the optimization algorithms that they have been considered in recent years, such as genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, ant colony optimization, Firefly algorithm. Recently, a new kind of evolutionary algorithm has been proposed that it is inspired by the human sociopolitical evolution process. This new algorith...

To explore the pharmacokinetic properties of icariin (ICA) and icariside II (ICA II) following intragastric and intravenous administration in rats, a rapid and sensitive method by using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of ICA and ICA II in rat plasma. The quantification was performed by ...

objective(s) methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (mrsa) is an important cause of nosocomial and community infections. biofilm formation, mediated by a polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (pia) and encoded by the ica operon, is considered to be an important virulence factor in both s. epidermidis and s. aureus. however, the clinical impact of the ica locus and pia production is less wel...
