In this study, the effects of yarn parameters, on the bursting strength of the plain knitted fabrics were examined with the help of artificial neural networks. In order to obtain yarns having different properties such as tenacity, elongation, unevenness, the yarns were produced from six different types of cotton. In addition to cotton type, yarns were produced in four different counts having th...

stability of the π-π stacking interactions in the ben||n-substituted-coronene complexes was studied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where ben is benzene and || denotes π-π stacking interaction, and n-substituted-coronene is coronene molecule which substituted with different number of n atoms). the results reveal simultaneous effects of structure and number of heteroatom on th...

The impact of card cylinder speed, card production rate and draw frame doubling on cotton yarn quality parameters was investigated by using the BoxBehnken experimental design. It was found that yarn tenacity, elongation and hairiness increase by increasing the number of draw frame doubling up to a certain level and then decrease by further increase in doubling. Yarn unevenness increased by incr...

Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron-binding multi-functional glycoprotein which has numerous physiological functions such as iron transportation, anti-microbial activity and immune response. In this study, different in silico approaches were exploited to investigate Lf protein properties in a number of mammalian species. Results showed that the iron-binding site, DNA and RNA-binding sites, signal pepti...

apotransferrin (apo tf)  in 0.1 m n-(2hydroxyethyl)piperazine-n2-ethanesulfanic acid at 25 ˚c  and ph 7.4 has been titrated with acidic solution of tb3+. the binding of tb3+ at  the two specific metal-binding sites of transferrin was followed from the changes in the difference uv spectra at 245 nm. the molar absorptivity per binding site for tb3+-tf is 22,500 ± 1000 m-1cm-1. to determine the tb...
