Proteomics is a rapidly emerging set of key technologies that are being used to identify proteins and map their interactions in a cellular context. With the sequencing of the human genome, the scope of proteomics has shifted from protein identification and characterization to include protein structure, function and protein-protein interactions. Technologies used in proteomic research include tw...

In this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. The rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index 3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of 1.The widest photonic band gap obtained is for filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. The filter’s transmission spec...

Analysis of images obtained from two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE) is a topic of utmost importance in bioinformatics research, since commercial and academic software available currently has proven to be neither completely effective nor fully automatic, often requiring manual revision and refinement of computer generated matches. In this work, we present an effective technique for the ...

S protein, a plasma glycoprotein with Mr 78,000, has been shown to interfere with the heparin-catalysed inhibition of thrombin by antithrombin III. This interaction was further evaluated in the present study. Native human blood was replaced by either radiolabelled antithrombin III or radiolabelled prothrombin in the reaction mixture, which was incubated at 37 degrees C. At various time interval...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate if three-dimensional power Doppler (3DPD) ultrasound (US) can detect bacterial cystitis in dogs better than two-dimensional (2D) US. Animals: Six mixed breed dogs Procedures: Ten ml of 0.1% alcoholic solution of salicylic acid was entered into the urinary bladder of six male mixed-breed dogs by catheter. Twenty four hours later, culture sol...

We evaluate renormalization factors of the domain-wall fermion system with various improved gauge actions at one loop level. The renormalization factors are calculated for quark wave function, quark mass, bilinear quark operators, threeand four-quark operators in MS scheme with the dimensional reduction(DRED) as well as the naive dimensional regularization(NDR). We also present detailed results...

This article concerns the study of stochastic Gilpin-Ayala mutualism models with white noise and Poisson jumps. Firstly, an explicit solution for one-dimensional Gilpin-Ayala mutualism model with jumps is obtained and the asymptotic pathwise behavior is analyzed. Then, sufficient conditions for the existence of global positive solutions, stochastically ultimate boundedness and stochastic perman...

Abstract: Aim/Background: Cancer is still known to be a devastating disease condition. Even after getting advancements in multimodality therapies, the success rate with respect patient survival very limited. Hence there an emerging need find alternative medication strategies for cancer treatment. Recently seaweeds are their significance due its tremendous medicinal properties. Among different c...

Neuroblastoma (NB) is an infant tumor which frequently differentiates into neurons. We used two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) to analyze the cytosolic and nuclear protein expression patterns of LAN-5 cells following neuronal differentiating agent all-trans-retinoic acid treatment. We identified several candidate proteins, from which G beta2 and Prefoldin 3 may have a...

Large amounts of the major storage proteins, beta-conglycinin and glycinin, in soybean (Glycine max) seeds hinder the isolation and characterization of less abundant seed proteins. We investigated whether isopropanol extraction could facilitate resolution of the low abundant proteins, different from the main storage protein fractions, in one-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1D-PA...
