Parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA) is widely used in the early phases of drug discovery as it is quite robust and offers high throughput. It serves as a platform for assessing the permeability and absorption of pharmaceutical com...
Resource recovery from textile wastewater has attracted increasing interest because it simultaneously addresses wastewater treatment and maximizes the utilization of the residual dyes. Although polyester membranes have demonstrated great potential fo...
Despite a decrease in the incidence of dental caries over the past four decades, it remains a widespread public health concern. The multifactorial etiology of dental caries complicates effective prevention and early intervention efforts, underscoring...
Machine learning (ML) tools offer new opportunities in drug discovery, especially for enhancing our understanding of molecular interactions with biological systems. This study develops a comprehensive quantitative structure-retention relationship (QS...
Membrane fouling remains a significant challenge in the operation of membrane bioreactors (MBRs). Plant operators rely heavily on observations of filtration performance from noisy sensor data to assess membrane fouling conditions and lab-based protoc...

The membrane bioreactor (MBR) has been widely used to purify wastewater in wastewater treatment plants. However, a critical difficulty of the MBR is membrane fouling. To reduce membrane fouling, in this work, an intelligent detecting system is develo...
Inspired by natural biochemicals that perform complex information processing within living cells, we design and simulate a chemically implemented feedforward neural network, which learns by a novel chemical-reaction-based analogue of backpropagation....
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown that fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) is elevated not only in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but also in acute illnesses such as acute kidney injury, septic shock, and acute heart failure. FGF-23 would be not ...
