Use of co-cultivation method to stimulate the production of antimicrobial natural products from mangrove microorganisms by Tan, Jin Wei

“…Cryptic gene clusters from actinomycetes are suspected to harbor potential in producing bioactive products, and in this study, co-cultivation is utilized to stimulate these cryptic gene clusters in novel antibiotics production. 10 actinomycete strains isolated from Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve were co-cultured with Mycobacterium Abscessus and Asperigillus Westerdijikiae in two liquid mediums, Glucose-Yeast extract-Malt extract (GYM) and Minimum Media (MM). …”

Boronic acid and nitrofuranyl derivatives as potential therapeutics by Dey, AL

“…However, the desired NInC proved unstable and the studies on ester hydrolysis of these novel NInCs suggest that a suitable ester prodrug of these potential drug conjugates may be promising in a clinical setting. Last but not least, it is hoped that a handful of these potentially novel therapeutics could further be developed into leads or drug candidates either in Oxford or elsewhere in an attempt to tackle the ever-increasing antibacterial resistance. …”

On a problem of El-Zahar and Erdős by Nguyen, T, Scott, A, Seymour, P

“…First, a strengthening: we can ask for one of the two subgraphs to have large chromatic number: that is, for all <i>t</i>, <i>c</i> ≥ 1 there exists <i>d</i> ≥ 1 such that if <i>G</i> has chromatic number at least <i>d</i>, and does not contain the complete graph <i>K_t</i> as a subgraph, then there are anticomplete subgraphs <i>A</i>, <i>B</i>, where <i>A</i> has minimum degree at least <i>c</i> and <i>B</i> has chromatic number at least <i>c</i>.…”

Discovery of stabilized functional mutants of human aquaporin 1 by Soh, Miao Yi

“…A cell-based freeze-thaw functionality assay that was developed by the lab was conducted on yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells transformed with the plasmids to identify the functional mutants, i.e., mutants that express the mutated AQP1 protein that would allow them to exhibit a protective effect in response to rapid freezing. ~ 5% of mutants from a total of 2816 screened from thirty-three 96-well plates were identified after a series of initial and verification screens. …”

Design of slender concrete column using chinese design code GB50010-2010 by Chen, Qiaofen

“…Data analyses reveal that loading capacity of slender column decreases with the increase of e/h, and the reduction of strength tends to be lesser for higher e/h; slender column tends to have less loading capacity with the increase of L/h, and the reduction of strength is lesser for high L/h; slender concrete column can be strengthened by installing more reinforcements, i.e. higher percentage of reinforcement; last but not least, use of higher strength concrete and steel result in a stronger slender concrete column. …”
