QSAR modelling using combined simple competitive learning networks and RBF neural networks

The aim of this study was to propose a QSAR modelling approach based on the combination of simple competitive learning (SCL) networks with radial basis function (RBF) neural networks for predicting the biological activity of chemical compounds. The proposed QSAR method consisted of two phases. In the first phase, an SCL network was applied to determine the centres of an RBF neural network. In the second phase, the RBF neural network was used to predict the biological activity of various phenols and Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitors. The predictive ability of the proposed QSAR models was evaluated and compared with other QSAR models using external validation. The results of this study showed that the proposed QSAR modelling approach leads to better performances than other models in predicting the biological activity of chemical compounds. This indicated the efficiency of simple competitive learning networks in determining the centres of RBF neural networks.     

Bare gold nanoparticles mediated surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic determination and quantification of carboxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes

The paper proposes a simple and portable approach for the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy in situ determination of carboxylated single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in river water samples. The method is based on the subsequent microfiltration of a bare gold nanoparticles solution and the water sample containing soluble carbon nanotubes by using a home-made filtration device with a small filtration diameter. An acetate cellulose membrane with a pore size of 0.2 μm first traps gold nanoparticles to form the SERS-active substrate and then concentrates the carbon nanotubes. The measured SERS intensity data were closely fit with a Langmuir isotherm. A portable Raman spectrometer was employed to measure SERS spectra, which enables in situ determination of SWNTs in river waters. The limit of detection was 10 μg L⁻¹. The precision, for a 10 mg L⁻¹ concentration of carbon nanotubes, is 1.19% intra-membrane and 10.5% inter-membrane.     

Application of Lobatto polynomials in atomic physics

The approximation properties of Lobatto polynomials are analyzed and then applied to approximate the atomic Kohn–Sham eigenfunction. In the first part of this article the approximation algorithm based on the Galerkin finite element method is derived. To obtain the approximation of the function, based on the presented algorithm, the linear set of equations must be solved. The matrix of the equation set is very sparse and its elements can be evaluated analytically. In the second part of this article, the algorithm is applied to evaluate adaptive polynomial approximation of selected Kohn–Sham eigenstates of indium (In) atom. The proposed r‐adaptive algorithm evaluates the minimum number of subintervals needed to represent the eigenfunction with required accuracy. Based on the r‐adaptive algorithm, the approximations of 4d, 5s 5p In eigenfunctions were calculated. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2010     

Retrofit of CD-6 (smith) impeller in fermentation vessels

We extended prior studies on the influence of impeller type on fermentation performance to include a novel low-power-number, high-efficiency radial flow impeller, the CD-6, possessing six curved blades on a disk turbine. Dual impeller combinations of CD-6/CD-6, CD-6/Maxflo T, and CD-6/HE-3 were compared with Rushton/Rushton and Maxflo T/Maxflo T base cases. Qualitative comparisons of unaerated and aerated power draw in both water and glycerol were conducted. These suggested minimal power drops with aeration for dual CD-6 impellers and hybrids containing the CD-6 impeller design. We also examined fermentation performance for Streptomyces and Glarea secondary metabolite fermentations. A qualitative comparison of the data suggested that dual CD-6 impellers and hybrids containing the CD-6 impeller design resulted in reasonable power draws, improved mass transfer rates with airflow increases, and acceptable peak titers. These arrangements may warrant further study under a wider range of production conditions.

Coarse-grained force field for the nucleosome from self-consistent multiscaling

A coarse-grained simulation model for the nucleosome is developed, using a methodology modified from previous work on the ribosome. Protein residues and DNA nucleotides are represented as beads, interacting through harmonic (for neighboring) or Morse (for nonbonded) potentials. Force-field parameters were estimated by Boltzmann inversion of the corresponding radial distribution functions obtained from a 5-ns all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, and were refined to produce agreement with the all-atom MD simulation. This self-consistent multiscale approach yields a coarse-grained model that is capable of reproducing equilibrium structural properties calculated from a 50-ns all-atom MD simulation. This coarse-grained model speeds up nucleosome simulations by a factor of 10(3) and is expected to be useful in examining biologically relevant dynamical nucleosome phenomena on the microsecond timescale and beyond.     

Molecular dynamics simulations of triflic acid and triflate ion/water mixtures: a proton conducting electrolytic component in fuel cells

Triflic acid is a functional group of perflourosulfonated polymer electrolyte membranes where the sulfonate group is responsible for proton conduction. However, even at extremely low hydration, triflic acid exists as a triflate ion. In this work, we have developed a force-field for triflic acid and triflate ion by deriving force-field parameters using ab initio calculations and incorporated these parameters with the Optimized Potentials for Liquid Simulations - All Atom (OPLS-AA) force-field. We have employed classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with the developed force field to characterize structural and dynamical properties of triflic acid (270-450 K) and triflate ion/water mixtures (300 K). The radial distribution functions (RDFs) show the hydrophobic nature of CF(3) group and presence of strong hydrogen bonding in triflic acid and temperature has an insignificant effect. Results from our MD simulations show that the diffusion of triflic acid increases with temperature. The RDFs from triflate ion/water mixtures shows that increasing hydration causes water molecules to orient around the SO(3)(-) group of triflate ions, solvate the hydronium ions, and other water molecules. The diffusion of triflate ions, hydronium ion, and water molecules shows an increase with hydration. At λ = 1, the diffusion of triflate ion is 30 times lower than the diffusion of triflic acid due to the formation of stable triflate ion-hydronium ion complex. With increasing hydration, water molecules break the stability of triflate ion-hydronium ion complex leading to enhanced diffusion. The RDFs and diffusion coefficients of triflate ions, hydronium ions and water molecules resemble qualitatively the previous findings using per-fluorosulfonated membranes.
