Protein aggregation is phenomenon wherein protein loses its native structure and aggregates due to the adaption of non-native conformation. Amyloid aggregation formed by the accumulation of various proteins causes many diseases in humans and other organisms. Antioxidants can prevent proteins aggregation. Pulicaria undulata  extract along with phenolic compounds can increase protein stability an...

platelet aggregation inhibitory effect and anticoagulant properties of fractions separated from the venoms of cerastes persicus fieldi and echis carinatus were investigated. the partial fractionation was performed on a sephadex g-100 column. two fractions separated from cerastes persicus fieldi showed anti platelet aggregation activity on adp (200 µm)-induced platelet aggregation (ca 80% inhibi...

We present analysis of spatial patterns of generic disease spread simulated by a stochastic long-range correlation SIR model, where individuals can be infected at long distance in a power law distribution. We integrated various tools, namely perimeter, circularity, fractal dimension, and aggregation index to characterize and investigate spatial pattern formations. Our primary goal was to unders...

The current study set to extend a new VIKOR method as a compromise ranking approach to solve multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems through intuitionistic fuzzy analysis. Using compromise method in MCDM problems contributes to the selection of an alternative as close as possible to the positive ideal solution and far away from the negative ideal solution, concurrently. Using Atanasso...

Understanding the microscopic dispersion and aggregation of nanoparticles at nanoscale media has become an important challenge during the last decades. Nanoscale modeling techniques are the important tools to tackle many of the complex problems faced by engineers and scientists. Making progress in the investigations at nanoscale whether experimentally or computationally has helped understand th...

A series of novel 2-aminopyrimidine and 2-Substituted-4,6-diaminopyrimidine derivatives have been synthesized and their anti platelet aggregation activities were assessed against ADP and arachidonic acid- induced platelet aggregation in human plasma using light transmission aggregometry. None of the compounds showed satisfactory activity against the aggregation induced by ADP. However, satisfac...

aggregation operators (aos) have been studied by many schol- ars. as many aos are proposed, there is still lacking approach to classify the categories of ao, and to select the appropriate ao within the ao candidates. in this research, each ao can be regarded as a cognitive style or individual dierence. a cognitive style and aggregation operator (csao) model is pro- posed to analyze the mapping ...

In this paper, we propose a new approach in performing trade-off analysis between multiple criteria, called criteria trade-off analysis (CTA). Conflicting degree and cooperative degree between any two criteria are first formulated, Relationships between criteria are identified based upon their conflicting and cooperative degrees. Criteria are converted into their disjunctive normal form to obta...

Using the satellite-infrared-based Simple Convective Aggregation Index (SCAI) to determine the degree of aggregation, 5 years of CloudSat-CALIPSO cloud profiles are composited at a spatial scale of 10 degrees to study the relationship between cloud vertical structure and aggregation. For a given large-scale vertical motion and domain-averaged precipitation rate, there is a large decrease in anv...
