Fuzzy ontologies extend classical ontologies to allow the representation of imprecise and vague knowledge. Although a relatively important amount of work has been carried out in the field during the last years and they have been successfully used in several applications, several notions from fuzzy logic have not been considered yet in fuzzy ontologies. Among them are aggregation operators, math...

in this paper, aggregation behaviors of aqueous solutions of short chain hydrophilic ionic liquids (ils), 1 – allyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([amim]cl), 1 - ethyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([emim]cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim]cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim]bf4) were investigated using conductivity and laser light scatterin...

a series of indole-based aryl(aroyl)hydrazone analogs of antiplatelet indole-3-carboxaldehyde phenylhydrazone were synthesized by the schiff base formation reaction and their antiplatelet activity was assessed using human platelet rich plasma. the platelet concentrate was obtained using a two-step centrifugation protocol and adp, arachidonic acid and collagen were used as inducers of platelet a...

in  this  study,  the  effect  of  water  temperature  on  pathogenesis  of  aeromonas  hydrophila  in  freshwater  crayfish  astacus  leptodactylus  were  investigated.  in  our  study,  the  treatments  crayfish  have  exposed  to  a  hydrophila  with  concentration  of  3×106 cfuml-1  in  high  water  temperature (25˚c)  and  normal  water  temperature(10-15ċ).  the  untreated  control  grou...

Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IVIFSs), a generalization of fuzzy sets, is characterized by an interval-valued membership function, an interval-valued non-membership function.The objective of this paper is to deal with criteria aggregation problems using IVIFSs where there exists a prioritization relationship over the criteria.Based on the ${L}$ukasiewicz triangular norm, we first p...

objective(s):alzheimer's disease (ad) is the most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder. one of the hallmarks of ad is an abnormal accumulation of fibril forms of tau protein which is known as a microtubule associated protein. in this regard, inhibition of tau aggregation has been documented to be a potent therapeutic approach in ad and tauopathies. unfortunately, the available syn...

to study the resistance to standard dosage of clopidogrel among iranian patients following percutaneous coronary intervention measured by platelet aggregation test.patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention in imam hussein medical center, tehran, iran, who were under treatment with aspirin, but had no history of clopidogrel usage, entered the study. patients received standard dosage...

systematic studies on the vapor-liquid equilibria (vle) and conductometric properties of aqueous solutions of model surface-active ionic liquid 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([c12mim]br) are performed in the absence and presence of a large series of electrolytes in order to achieve a deeper understanding about the molecular mechanism behind the specific salt effect on the aggregation be...

conclusions accordingly, it can be concluded that locally low temperatures and acidic conditions are the main suspected reasons for protein misfolding. results based on the study findings the low temperature, 0°c, and acidic condition change the structure more strongly than other mentioned conditions. the low temperature and acidic conditions seem to have the most misfolding effect on insulin s...

liquid protein formulations are prone to form aggregates. the effect of nonionic surfactants such as polysorbate 20 (ps 20) and n-dodecyl β-d-maltoside (ddm) on the prevention of aggregation and conformational changes of recombinant human ifnβ-1b (rhifn β_1b) was explored. polysorbate has been used in formulations of protein pharmaceuticals. there have been concerns about using ps 20 due to its...
