phage elisa is a common method to confirm binding of obtained phages from phage display technique to related antigens. enzyme-conjugated antibody directed against the major capsid protein (pviii) or enzyme-conjugated secondary antibody against the primary antibody is used as a detection system in phage elisa. we have suggested to express an acid phosphatase (sapm) enzyme on m13 pix minor coat p...

Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods have been used to evaluate the efficiency of four quinoline derivatives on corrosion inhibition in the aqueous phase. Some quantum chemical parameters such as hardness (η), electrophilicity (w), polarizability (a), energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), energy of th...

although carbon nanotubes (cnt) have been employed as reinforcements in nanocomposites, presence of nano scale defects such as stone-wales and vacancy defects in carbon nanotubes (cnt) weakens the mechanical properties of these materials. in this paper the effects of defects in cnts on nanocomposite elastic behavior are investigated using molecular dynamics. stiffness matrices of cnt and nanoco...

the aim of this research is to calculate the elastic constants and bulk modulus of cu-20 wt% ni random nanoalloy. the molecular dynamics simulation technique was used to calculate the mechanical properties in npt ensemble. the interaction between atoms as well as cohesive energy in the nanoalloy modeled systems was calculated by morse et al. two body potential. also the temperature of the syste...

the overall aim of this study is to calculate some water properties in the single wall carbon naotubes (swcnt) and compare them to the bulk water properties to investigate the deviation of water properties inside the swcnt from those in the bulk. here some physical and transport properties of water molecules in the single wall carbon nanotube were reported by performing molecular dynamics (md) ...

the aim of this study is investigating the transport mechanism of ibuprofen chiral isomers inside singlewall carbon nano tube (swcnt) using mathematical modeling. to achieve this goal, molecular dynamicssimulation has been performed to evaluate the interactions of ibuprofen isomers with swcnt in an aqueoussolution. results show that both chiral forms of ibuprofen molecules enter and remain insi...

in this work the conduction of ion-water solution through two discrete bundles of armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes, as useful membranes for water desalination, is studied. in order that studies on different types of nanotubes be comparable, the chiral vectors of c and si-c nanotubes are selected as (7,7) and (5,5), respectively, so that    a similar volume of fluid is investigated ...

in this report, we describe a procedure for in-silico design of a novel haloalkane dehalogenase protein that exhibits luciferase property which can be potentially used in biosensor applications. from a pdb blast search, the selected haloalkane dehalogenase (pdb code: 1ede) had a close structural homology with a lucifearse (pdb code: 2psj chain a) sharing an identity of 33%. initially, the amino...

efficiency of enzymes which are used in industrial or environmental applications is highly dependent on their thermal stability. in this study, the stability of dfpase has been evaluated after introducing disulfide bonds to the structure. the results obtained from a series of protein design software were subjected to molecular dynamics simulation at different temperature to test the performance...
