Single Node Performance and Weak Scaling of waLBerla on current Supercomputing Platforms

High performance on current supercomputers is mainly obtained by highly optimized kernels, which handle one specific problem with given restrictions. waLBerla in contrast is a large C++ software framework and aims at high performance . It is our extensible implementation of a parallel fluid solver, and supports various applications. In this report we evaluate the perfomance of the fluid solver ...

New Platforms For Drug Screening And Toxicology: Necessity Or Need?

The liver is the largest internal organ in the human body that is responsible for more than 500 vital functions, including biosynthesis of major plasma proteins, immunity against infectious pathogens, balancing energy metabolism and xenobiotics biotransformation (1). One of the main functions of the liver is an important role in drug metabolism (2). Since developing new drug compounds into mark...

INCF plasmids responsible by dissemination of blaKPC gene among enterobacteriaceae

Methods A total of 22 isolates, K. pneumoniae (n=20), Escherichia coli (n=1) and Enterobacter aerogenes (n=1), were collected from a university hospital, in Lisbon, Portugal. MIC were determined by Etest and interpreted according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines. PCR was performed with primers designed to amplify blaSHV, blaTEM and blaKPC genes. Molecular typing was per...
