this paper introduces a technique for controlling a class of uncertain chaotic systems using an adaptive fuzzy proportional-integrator-derivative (pid) controller with h∞ tracking performance. the purpose of this work is to achieve optimal tracking performance of the controller using backtracking search algorithm (bsa). bsa, which is a novel heuristic algorithm, has an easy structure with singl...

The effects of nonglycated bovine serum albumin (BSA) and advanced glycosylation end products of BSA (AGE-BSA) on vascular responses of control and metabolic syndrome (MS) rats characterized by hypertriglyceridemia, hypertension, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance were studied. Albumin and in vitro prepared AGE-BSA have vascular effects; however, recent studies indicate that some effects ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate (1) to what extent sera from healthy subjects and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) contain antibodies to bovine serum albumin (BSA); and (2) if anti-BSA antibodies interfere with results of enzyme-linked immunoassays (ELISA) containing BSA. METHODS The ELISA used was a previously developed in-house assay of autoantibodies to tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Anti-TNF a...

We studied the combination between seven kinds of drugs and the bovine serum albumin (BSA) using Methyl Green (MG) as fluorescent probe. These drugs were Streptomycin sulphate, Kanamycin sulfate, Gentamicin, Amikacin, Neomycin, Thiamphenicol and Florfenicol. And after reaction of these drugs, the fluorescence intensity of BSA had no obvious change. Research has shown that in Tris-HCl (pH=7.40) ...

S-Nitrosothiols are an interesting class of nitric oxide (NO) donors used for the treatment of circulation disorders. In this study, we developed a novel macromolecular NO donor in which 10 NO molecules were covalently bound to polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated bovine serum albumin (BSA) through S-nitrosothiol linkages (PEG-poly SNO-BSA). Intermolecular disulfide linkages possibly formed dur...

We demonstrate label-free molecule detection by using an integrated biosensor based on a Si(3)N(4)/SiO(2) slot-waveguide microring resonator. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and anti-BSA molecular binding events on the sensor surface are monitored through the measurement of resonant wavelength shifts with varying biomolecule concentrations. The biosensor exhibited sensitivities of 1.8 and 3.2 nm/(ng...

Bayesian subspace analysis (BSA) has been successfully applied in data mining and pattern recognition. However, due to the use of probabilistic measure of similarity, it often needs much more projective vectors for better performance, which makes the compression ratio very low. In this paper, we propose a novel 2D Bayesian subspace analysis (2D-BSA) method for face recognition at high compressi...

In this paper, the interaction of lomefloxacin (LMF) and/or cefazolin (CFZ) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by fluorescence quenching in combination with UV-vis spectroscopic method under simulative physiological conditions. The fluorescence quenching constants, binding distance, and binding constants for BSA–LMX and/or CFZ systems were determined. The fluorescence quenching of BSA ...

background: recently, applications of nanoparticles in many fields of medicine have been developed, due to their specific physical and chemical properties. therefore assessment of their toxicity specially in the in vivo condition is necessary. objectives: the aim of this study is to evaluation the effect of fe3o4 nanoparticles coating by biocompatible compounds on their toxicity and also compar...

BACKGROUND This study was undertaken to establish the appropriate correction of left atrial volume (LAV) to body surface area (BSA) to provide reference values and to assess the hypotheses that LAV is useful for assessing patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) severity in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI) and could overcome the limitations of the LA-to-aortic dimension ratio (LA/Ao).
