Novel Drug

SummaryDrugs can be electro-encapsulated within platelets and targeted to damaged blood vessels by exploiting the platelet’s natural haemostatic properties to adhere to collagen and other vessel wall constituents revealed by injury. A rat aorta balloon angioplasty model has been used to study the effect on platelet deposition of giving iloprost loaded platelets i.v. during the balloon injury. After labelling the circulating platelets with 111-Indium before balloon injury, time course studies showed maximum platelet deposition on the injured aorta occurred at about 1 h post-injury and the deposition remained stable over the next 2-3 h. When iloprost-loaded platelets were given i.v. during injury and the circulating platelet pool labelled with 111-Indium 30 min later, platelet deposition, measured at 2 h postinjury, was substantially and significantly reduced compared with control platelet treatment. Some antiproliferative effects of iloprost-loaded platelets given i.v. during injury have also been observed. Whereas the incorporation of [3H]-thymidine into aorta intima-media DNA at 3 days post injury was 62-fold higher in balloon injured rats than in control sham operated rats, thymidine incorporation into intima/media of rats which had received iloprost loaded platelets during injury was reduced as compared with rats subjected only to the injury procedure. The reduction was only of near significance, however, but at 14 days after injury the total DNA content of the aorta intima/media of rats given iloprost loaded platelets during injury was significantly reduced. Although iloprost loaded platelets can clearly inhibit excessive platelet deposition, other encapsulated agents may have greater anti-proliferative effects. These studies have shown that drug loaded platelets can be targeted to injured arteries, where they may be retained as depots for local release. We believe this novel drug delivery protocol may have therapeutic potential in reducing the incidence of occlusion and restenosis after angioplasty and thrombolysis treatment. Electro-encapsulation of drugs into platelets is a simple procedure and, using autologous and fully biocompatible and biodegradable platelets as delivery vehicles, might overcome some of the immunological and toxicological problems which have been encountered with other delivery vectors such as liposomes, microbeads, synthetic microcapsules and antibodies.

Energy Supply Systems

An energy supply system consists of a system of power plants and transmission anddistribution systems that supply electrical energy. The present project is limited to the modellingof the generation system. Its objective is the design and implementation of a web-basedapplication for simulating energy supply systems using the Laravel framework. The projectfocuses on six modules representing geothermal energy, solar energy, biopower, hydropower,storage, and fossil-based energy that are allocated to satisfy a given power demand. It isexecuted as a time series modelling for an exemplary year with hourly resolution. Thedevelopment of the software is divided into four steps, which are the definition of the userrequirements, the system design (activity, use case, system architecture, and ERD), the softwaredevelopment, and the software testing (unit testing, functionality testing, validity testing, anduser acceptance testing). The software is successfully implemented. All the features of thesoftware work as intended. Also, the software goes through validity testing using three differentinput data, to make sure the software is accurate. The result of the testing is 100% accuracy withrespect to the underlying model that was implemented in an excel calculation.

Food sensory analysis is the terms from the field of Food Technology that has a meaning which means sensory evaluation of food that is conducted by the food sensory evaluators. Currently, food sensory analysis is conductedmanually. It can caus e human errors and consume much ti me. The objective of this research is to build a web based application that is specific for food sensory analysis using PHP programming language. This research followsfour first steps of waterfall software engineering mod el which are user requirements ana lysis (user software and requirements analysis), system design (activity, use cases, architecture, and entity relationship diagram),implementation (software development), and testing (software unit, functionality, validit y, and user acceptance testing). T he software result is well built. It is also acceptable for users and all functionality features can run well after going through those four software testing. The existence of the software brings easiness to deal with the manual food sensory analysis exper iment. It is considered also for the future it has business value by having open source and premium features.

<p>We present a simple procedure to make an augmented reality app to visualize any 3D chemical model. The molecular structure may be based on data from crystallographic data or from computer modelling. This guide is made in such a way, that no programming skills are needed and the procedure uses free software and is a way to visualize 3D structures that are normally difficult to comprehend in the 2D space of paper. The process can be applied to make 3D representation of any 2D object, and we envisage the app to be useful when visualizing simple stereochemical problems, when presenting a complex 3D structure on a poster presentation or even in audio-visual presentations. The method works for all molecules including small molecules, supramolecular structures, MOFs and biomacromolecules.</p>
