Conformational design characterization of a truncated diamine oxidase by Razali, Nur Nadia

“…By maintaining the native protein’s pH profile, the mini protein was highly active at 40 °C and stable at pH 7, with a half-life of 80 min at 50 °C. Results from the kinetic studies showed that the Km value for native diamine oxidase was 0.274 mM and 1.3 mM for the mini protein. …”

Improved 3-D frequency-selective structures and their applications by Ahmed Abdelmottaleb Abdelfattah Attia Omar

“…A 67% and 79% thickness reduction compared to the basic bandpass 3-D frequency-selective structure is achieved by employing three- and five-layer folded substrate, respectively. Moreover, a half-cylindrically shaped radome as an example of a conformal frequency-selective surface is constructed based on the proposed technique and integrated with a broadband horn antenna. …”
