(shiitake mushroom): An assessment of anti-atherosclerotic bio-functionality.

Mushrooms have been highly regarded as possessing enormous nutritive and medicinal values. In the present study, we evaluated the anti-oxidative and anti-atherosclerotic potential of shiitake mushroom () using its solvent-solvent partitioned fractions that consisted of methanol:dichloromethane (M:DCM), hexane (HEX), dichloromethane (DCM), ethyl acetate (EA) and aqueous residue (AQ). The hexane fra...

Neural Network-Based DOBC for a Class of Nonlinear Systems With Unmatched Disturbances.

In this brief, the problem of composite anti-disturbance tracking control for a class of strict-feedback systems with unmatched unknown nonlinear functions and external disturbances is investigated. A disturbance-observer-based control (DOBC) in combination with a neural network scheme and back-stepping method is developed to achieve a composite anti-disturbance controller design that provides gua...
