The present study focuses on effects of initial pH on dibenzothiophene (DBT) desulfurization via 4S pathway by growing cells of Ralstonia eutropha. For so doing, temporal changes of biomass concentration, glucose as a sole carbon source, pH value, and 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) formation have been monitored during the bioprocess. The biomass concentration has been modeled by the logistic equatio...

machine-part family formation is one of major applications of group technology (gt). the machine cell formation problem in cellular manufacturing system (cms) involves the decomposition of the manufacturing system into machine cells. part families are identified such that they are fully processed within a machine cell. the problem of cell design is a very complex task with wide ranging implicat...

Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common pediatric malignant primary renal tumor. Carboplatin (CRB), a platinum compound is widely used in the treatment of multiple cancers including ovarian, lung, head and neck, and wilm’s tumor. However lower uptake of CRB in cancer cells and toxicity concerns in healthy cells often limited its clinical outcome. The aim of this study was to investigate the antitum...

angiogenesis, formation of new blood vessels, play an important role in some diseases such as cancer and its metastasis. using angiogenesis inhibitors, therefore, is one of the ways for cancer treatment and prevention of metastasis. medicinal plants have been shown to play a major role in the treatment of a variety of cancers. in this direction, cytotoxic and angiogenic effects of oleo gum resi...

The fundamental function of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is based on definition and recognition of a type of similarity among parts that should be produced in a planning period. Cell formation (CF) and cell layout design are two important steps in implementation of the CMS. This paper represents a new nonlinear mathematical programming model for dynamic cell formation that employs the ...
