Identification of effective drug combinations for patients is an expensive and time-consuming procedure, especially for experiments. To accelerate the synergistic drug discovery process, we present a new classification model to identify more effecti...
Prediction of drug synergy score is an ill-posed problem. It plays an efficient role in the medical field for inhibiting specific cancer agents. An efficient regression-based machine learning technique has an ability to minimise the drug synergy pred...
This in vitro study aimed to investigate the synergistic antibacterial activity of polymyxin B in combination with 2 nm silver nanoparticles (NPs) against Gram-negative pathogens commonly isolated from the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung. The in vitro syne...
