Cooperative Binding and Stepwise Encapsulation of Drug Molecules by Sulfonylcalixarene-Based Metal-Organic Supercontainers by Tian-Pu Sheng, Xin-Xia Fan, Guo-Zong Zheng, Feng-Rong Dai, Zhong-Ning Chen

“…The titration curves and their nonlinear fit to Hill equation strongly suggest the efficient encapsulation of the guest molecules by the synthetic host, which exhibit interesting cooperative and stepwise binding behavior. Based on the control experiments using tetranuclear complex as a reference, it is clear that two equivalents of the guest molecules are initially encapsulated inside the <i>endo</i> cavity, followed by the trapping of six additional equivalents of the drug molecules through six <i>exo</i> cavities (1 eq. per <i>exo</i> cavity), and the remaining guests are entrapped by the external pockets. …”

Adaptive control of the E. coli-specific growth rate in fed-batch cultivation based on oxygen uptake rate by Renaldas Urniezius, Deividas Masaitis, Donatas Levisauskas, Arnas Survyla, Povilas Babilius, Dziuljeta Godoladze

“…The feasibility of the control system for tracking a desired biomass growth time profile is demonstrated with numerical simulations and fed-batch culture E.coli control experiments in a laboratory-scale bioreactor. The procedure was cross-validated with the open-loop digital twin SGR estimator, as well as with the adaptive control of the SGR, by tracking a desired setpoint time profile. …”

Belief-consistent information is most shared despite being the least surprising by Jacob T. Goebel, Mark W. Susmann, Srinivasan Parthasarathy, Hesham El Gamal, R. Kelly Garrett, Duane T. Wegener

“…Though surprise could not be assessed in those studies, belief consistency should relate to less surprise, suggesting the relevance of semantic meaning beyond novelty. In two controlled experiments, belief-consistent (vs. belief-inconsistent) information was shared more despite consistent information being the least surprising. …”
