Abstract:
In silico experimental modeling of cancer involves combining findings from biological literature with computer-based models of biological systems in order to conduct investigations of hypotheses entirely in the computer laboratory. In this paper, we discuss the use of in silico modeling as a precursor to traditional clinical and laboratory research, allowing researchers to refine their experimental programs with an aim to reducing costs and increasing research efficiency. We explain the methodology of in silico experimental trials before providing an example of in silico modeling from the biomathematical literature with a view to promoting more widespread use and understanding of this research strategy.

Abstract:
This study compared student perceptions and learning outcomes of computer-assisted instruction against those of traditional didactic lectures. Components of Quantitative Circulatory Physiology (Biological Simulators) and Mechanical Properties of Active Muscle (Trinity Software) were used to teach regulation of tissue blood flow and muscle mechanics, respectively, in the course Medical Physiology. These topics were each taught, in part, by 1) standard didactic lectures, 2) computer-assisted lectures, and 3) computer laboratory assignment. Subjective evaluation was derived from a questionnaire assessing student opinions of the effectiveness of each method. Objective evaluation consisted of comparing scores on examination questions generated from each method. On a 1-10 scale, effectiveness ratings were higher (P < 0.0001) for the didactic lectures (7.7) compared with either computer-assisted lecture (3.8) or computer laboratory (4.2) methods. A follow-up discussion with representatives from the class indicated that students did not perceive computer instruction as being time effective. However, examination scores from computer laboratory questions (94.3%) were significantly higher compared with ones from either computer-assisted (89.9%; P < 0.025) or didactic (86.6%; P < 0.001) lectures. Thus computer laboratory instruction enhanced learning outcomes in medical physiology despite student perceptions to the contrary.

Abstract:
Computer network used for laboratory training and for different types of network and security experiments represents a special environment where hazardous activities take place, which may not affect any production system or network. It is common that students need to have administrator privileges in this case which makes the overall security and maintenance of such a network a difficult task. We present our solution which has proved its usability for more than three years. First of all, four user requirements on the laboratory network are defined (access to educational network devices, to laboratory services, to the Internet, and administrator privileges of the end hosts), and four essential security rules are stipulated (enforceable end host security, controlled network access, level of network access according to the user privilege level, and rules for hazardous experiments), which protect the rest of the laboratory infrastructure as well as the outer university network and the Internet. The main part of the paper is dedicated to a design and implementation of these usability and security rules. We present a physical diagram of a typical laboratory network based on multiple circuits connecting end hosts to different networks, and a layout of rack devices. After that, a topological diagram of the network is described which is based on different VLANs and port-based access control using the IEEE 802.1x/EAP-TLS/RADIUS authentication to achieve defined level of network access. In the second part of the paper, the latest innovation of our network is presented that covers a transition to the system virtualization at the end host devices – inspiration came from a similar solution deployed at the Department of Telecommunications at Brno University of Technology. This improvement enables a greater flexibility in the end hosts maintenance and a simultaneous network access to the educational devices as well as to the Internet. In the end, a vision of a system of virtual machines preparation and automated deployment tailored for our needs is briefly outlined.

Abstract:
The biological sciences are becoming increasingly reliant on computer science and associated technologies to quickly and efficiently analyze and interpret complex data sets. Introducing students to data analysis techniques is a critical part of their development as well-rounded, scientifically literate citizens. As part of a collaborative effort between the Biology and Computer Science departments at William & Mary, we sought to develop laboratory exercises that would introduce basic ideas of data analysis while also exposing students to Python, a commonly used computer programming language. We accomplished this by developing exercises within the interactive Jupyter Notebook platform, an open-source application that allows Python code to be written and executed as discrete blocks in real time. Students used the developed Jupyter Notebook to analyze data collected as part of a multiweek ecology field experiment aimed at determining the effect of white-tailed deer on aspects of biological diversity. These inquiry-based laboratory exercises generated scientifically relevant data and gave students a chance to experience and participate in ongoing scientific research while demonstrating the utility of computer science in the scientific process.

Abstract:
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has a tremendous effect on people’s lives worldwide, and the number of infected patients increases daily. The healthcare sector is affected by a large number of patients with COVID-19, and a solution is urgently needed to avert the risk of deteriorating patients in terms of prioritizing patients based on their health conditions. Prioritization of patients with COVID-19 is a complex and multi-criteria decision-analysis (MCDA) problem due to (i) multiple biological laboratory examination criteria, (ii) criteria importance and (iii) trade-off amongst the criteria. This study presents a new multi-biological laboratory examination framework for prioritizing patients with COVID-19 on the basis of integrated MCDA methods. The experiment was conducted on the basis of three phases. In the first phase, patient datasets containing eight biological laboratory examination criteria for six patients with COVID-19 were derived and discussed. The outcome of this phase was used to propose a decision matrix on the basis of the intersection between “biological laboratory examination criteria” and “COVID-19 patients list”. In the second phase, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was utilized to set the subjective weights for the biological laboratory examination criteria by respiratory experts. In the last phase, the VIekriterijumsko KOmpromisno Rangiranje (VIKOR) method was adopted to prioritize patients in the context of individual and group decision making (GDM). Results showed that (1) the integration of AHP–VIKOR method based on individual and GDM contexts was effective for solving prioritization problems for patients with COVID-19, and (2) the prioritization results of patients with COVID-19 showed no variation in the internal and external VIKOR GDM contexts. The proposed multi-biological laboratory examination framework can differentiate between the mild and serious or critical condition of patients with COVID-19 by prioritizing them based on integrated AHP–VIKOR methods. In conclusion, medical sectors can use the proposed framework to differentiate the health conditions of infected patients and to assign appropriate care with prompt and effective treatment.

Abstract:
The necessity for a functional user friendly laboratory data management program has become evident as the quantity of information required for modern scientific research has increased to to titanic proportions. The required union of strong computer power, ease of operation, and adaptability have until recently been outside the realm of most research laboratories. Previous systems, in addition to their high cost, are necessarily complex and require software experts in order to effect any changes that the end user might deem necessary. This study examines the Apple Macintosh computer program Hypercard as an interactive laboratory information system that is user-friendly, cost effective, and adaptable to the changing demands within a modern molecular or microbiology.

Abstract:
Just a few decades ago, chemical oscillations were thought to be exotic reactions of only theoretical interest. Now known to govern an array of physical and biological processes, including the regulation of the heart, these oscillations are being studied by a diverse group across the sciences. This book is the first introduction to nonlinear chemical dynamics written specifically for chemists. It covers oscillating reactions, chaos, and chemical pattern formation, and includes numerous practical suggestions on reactor design, data analysis, and computer simulations. Assuming only an undergraduate knowledge of chemistry, the book is an ideal starting point for research in the field. The book begins with a brief history of nonlinear chemical dynamics and a review of the basic mathematics and chemistry. The authors then provide an extensive overview of nonlinear dynamics, starting with the flow reactor and moving on to a detailed discussion of chemical oscillators. Throughout the authors emphasize the chemical mechanistic basis for self-organization. The overview is followed by a series of chapters on more advanced topics, including complex oscillations, biological systems, polymers, interactions between fields and waves, and Turing patterns. Underscoring the hands-on nature of the material, the book concludes with a series of classroom-tested demonstrations and experiments appropriate for an undergraduate laboratory.

Abstract:
Designed for undergraduates, graduate students, and industry practitioners, Bioseparations Science and Engineering fills a critical need in the field of bioseparations. Current, comprehensive, and concise, it covers bioseparations unit operations in unprecedented depth. In each of the chapters, the authors use a consistent method of explaining unit operations, starting with a qualitative description noting the significance and general application of the unit operation. They then illustrate the scientific application of the operation, develop the required mathematical theory, and finally, describe the applications of the theory in engineering practice, with an emphasis on design and scaleup. Unique to this text is a chapter dedicated to bioseparations process design and economics, in which a process simular, SuperPro Designer® is used to analyze and evaluate the production of three important biological products. New to this second edition are updated discussions of moment analysis, computer simulation, membrane chromatography, and evaporation, among others, as well as revised problem sets. Unique features include basic information about bioproducts and engineering analysis and a chapter with bioseparations laboratory exercises. Bioseparations Science and Engineering is ideal for students and professionals working in or studying bioseparations, and is the premier text in the field.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper explores novel strategies to strengthen the security of Hybrid Wireless Body Area Networks (HyWBANs), which are essential in smart healthcare and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Recognizing the vulnerability of HyWBAN to sophisticated cyber-attacks, we propose an innovative combination of semantic communications and jamming receivers. This dual-layered security mechanism protects against unauthorized access and data breaches, particularly in scenarios involving in-body to on-body communication channels. We conduct comprehensive laboratory measurements to understand hybrid (radio and optical) communication propagation through biological tissues. We utilize these insights to refine a dataset for training a Deep Learning (DL) model. These models, in turn, generate semantic concepts linked to cryptographic keys for enhanced data confidentiality and integrity using a jamming receiver. The proposed model significantly reduces energy consumption compared to traditional cryptographic methods, like Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH), especially when supplemented with jamming. Our approach addresses the primary security concerns and sets the baseline for future secure biomedical communication systems advancements.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter describes the theory and application of three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction from serial sections. The technique has a long history, starting by sculpturing from sections via photomicrographs to a wax model and evolving to a virtual 3D model exclusively existing in computer memory. The latter method is, at least to some extent, automated and therefore referred to as computer-assisted reconstruction (CAR). CAR is commonly applied in the laboratory. However, computerizing the reconstruction process has implications for laboratory practice, and clear and unambiguous terminology is important and necessary. The biological problems to be solved with 3D reconstruction tend to be complex. Ideally, finding solutions is an interaction between the life sciences and computer sciences. The computer1 is the means to solve the problems raised, serving as the objective assistant to the process, and solutions are formulated in terms of applied physics since the whole procedure depends on the formation and manipulation of the microscope image. Computer science provides the computational resources because 3D reconstruction requires effective algorithms for processing, as well as for data management. Interpretation of the data of course remains the exclusive domain of the biologist.

Abstract:
Biotechnological power is increasing exponentially, reminiscent of the increase in computing power since the invention of electronic computers. The cofounder of Intel Corporation, Gordon Moore, pointed out in 1965 that the number of transistors per computer chip – a measure of how much computation can be done in a given volume – has doubled roughly every 18 months (Moore, 1965). This exponential increase in computing power, now called ‘Moore’s Law’, has continued to hold in the decades since then (Lundstrom, 2003) and is the reason that individuals now have more computing power available in their personal computers than that was available only to the most advanced nations only decades ago. Although biotechnology’s exponential lift off began decades after that of computing, its rate of increase, as measured, for example, by the time needed to synthesize a given DNA sequence, is as fast or faster than that of Moore’s Law (Carlson, 2003). Just as Moore’s Law led to a world of personal computing and home appliance microprocessors, so biotechnological innovation is moving us into a world where the synthesis of DNA, as well as other biological manipulations, will be increasingly available to small groups of technically competent and even individual users. There is already a list of well-known experiments – and many others that have received less public attention – that illustrates the potential dangers intrinsic to modern biological research and development. We review several examples of these in some detail below, including: genetic manipulations that have rendered certain viruses far more deadly to their animal hosts (Jackson et al., 2001); the synthesis of polio virus from readily purchased chemical supplies (Cello et al., 2002) – so that even if the World Health Organization (WHO) succeeds in its important task for eradicating polio worldwide, the virus can be reconstituted in laboratories around the world; the reduction in the time needed to synthesize a virus genome comparable in size to the polio virus from years to weeks; the laboratory re-synthesis of the 1918 human influenza virus that killed tens of millions of people worldwide (Tumpey et al., 2005); the discovery of ‘RNA interference’, which allows researchers to turn off certain genes in humans or other organisms (Sen et al., 2006); and the new field of ‘synthetic biology’, whose goal is to allow practitioners to fabricate small ‘biological devices’ and ultimately new types of microbes (Fu, 2006).

Abstract This chapter is the first in a series of four chapters discussing various aspects of evolution. The main principles of biological evolution are introduced via exploring how bacteria evolve in a laboratory, in particular, discussing the long-term evolutionary experiment of E. coli bacteria by Richard Lenski. Next, the bacterial evolution in the wild is discussed. It is shown how the bacterial evolution is linked to the changes of information in their genomes. It is also discussed what is needed for a system to be able to evolve (i.e. evolvability) and how fast an evolving system can change before it breaks down. In parts of this chapter, elementary mathematics is used to show that the theory of evolution is a hard, rather than a soft science.

Abstract:
Properly approached, molecular sequence data is a rich source of knowledge capable of teaching us much about the structure, function, and evolution of biological macromolecules. To effectively realize this potential, however, some understanding of the process of and theoretical basis for sequence comparison is needed as well as a variety of practical tools to access and manipulate the data. The volume of molecular sequence data has long since surpassed human information processing capacity for even simple tasks such as searching for related sequences, and with the ever increasing rate at which new sequences are being produced, the need for computer-assisted analysis becomes more and more acute. Automated tools can extend human capabilities by orders of magnitude in both speed and accuracy. The educated application of these automated tools is an essential part of modern molecular biology research. This chapter considers the theory and practice of analyzing sequence similarity as it applies to database searching and sequence alignment. Five major areas will be examined. First, we describe the use of dot matrix plots to elucidate the structures and features relating a sequence pair. Secondly, we discuss optimal pairwise alignment of sequences using dynamic programming algorithms. Thirdly, we examine fast, approximate techniques for detecting local similarities. Fourthly, the uses of and techniques for multiple sequence alignment are described. Finally, the statistical significance of sequence similarity is considered. In the analysis of molecular sequences, the terms similarity andhomology are often used without a clear understanding of their distinct implications. Similarity is a descriptive term which only implies that two sequences, by some criterion, resemble each other and carries no suggestion as to their origins or ancestry. Homology refers specifically to similarity due to descent from a common ancestor (Patterson, 1988;Reeck etal., 1987). On the basis of similarity relationships among a group of sequences, it may be possible to infer homology, but outside of an explicit laboratory model system, descent from a common ancestor remains hypothetical. There are philosophical issues in the inference of homology as well as practical ones. In classical morphology, conjunction (the occurrence of two traits in a single individual) is considered evidence that they are not homologous (Patterson, 1982).

Abstract:
The first studies on humans addressing cognitive functioning changes as a consequence of radiofrequency (RF) EMFs exposure date back to almost 20 years ago. The effects on human behavior showed in those pioneering works indicated an improvement of performance under the exposure to the signal, compared with sham exposure. These first and striking results were not fully replicated by subsequent studies that were characterized by a more methodological robustness and attention to exposure aspects. In accordance with this view, latest reviews and metanalyses have confirmed the paucity of evidence and the lack of reliability of psychomotor and cognitive effects of acute RF EMF exposure on human volunteers, particularly when assessed in well controlled laboratory settings. Thus, despite the public opinion about potential biologic effects of acute RF EMFs irradiation, it can be concluded that to date there is substantial lack of evidence about a negative influence of non-ionizing radiations on cognitive functioning in humans.

Ryszard Parosa, Andrzej Brożyński, Piotr Grześkowiak, Krzysztof Kowalczyk, Marek Natoński, Piotr Ziętek and Janusz Żytkiewicz PROMIS-TECH Poland Keywords: microwave treatment, low pressure heating, microwave drying Uniquely favourable characteristics of biological product can be obtained through the use of the microwave method in vacuum heating process. Microwave-vacuum drying is superior to other methods in terms of dried products' structure, flavour, colour and biological active compounds contents. But applications of such a methods seems to be much wider: drying of fruits and vegetables for consumption, drying of herbs for extraction of valuable biological compounds, for modification of seed structure (sunflowers seeds, pumpkin seeds), for pasteurisation etc. A universal system was designed for testing such processes in laboratory scale and several industrial scale system have been developed. Process of thermal treatment can be carried out with plastic drum installed inside of multi-mode microwave cavity and cavity which is connected by microwave line with reflectometer and circulator - to microwave generator. In laboratory unit generator 2.45 GHz with controlled power (from 50W to 800W) was applied. System was equipped with vacuum pump with pressure control and is controlled by computer. Most important technical parameters, like: microwave power, time of treatment, pressure inside of drum, temperature of steam – are controlled and recorded. Laboratory scale unit is shown below. Basing on laboratory scale test several technologies in industrial scale was developed. Industrial scale unit equipped with 8 generators of 3 kW (2.45 GHz) was constructed and for last 8 years has been successfully used for “production” of crispy chips which are now popular in Polish marked.

Abstract:
Biological materials are efficient scatterers of optical radiation, making direct measurement of their optical properties difficult. Analytical and semi-analytical approximations to the relevant scattering mechanisms are frequently used to model the propagation of light in these materials. Availability of high-speed personal computers has made the technique of Monte Carlo simulation a useful alternative to analytical approximations for measurement and prediction of the response of biological materials to optical irradiation. We describe a combined experimental and Monte Carlo method with which the optical parameters of thin tissue samples may be rapidly and accurately determined from measurements of reflected and transmitted light intensity. We also present the results of application of this method to laser-tissue interaction projects in our laboratory, for example, to predict the distribution of light within tissues during laser hyperthermia and photo-dynamic therapy.

Abstract:
Manoiloxide is a labdane type diterpenoid that can be synthesized from commercially available sclareol. Derivatives of this substance contain the scaffold of forskolin 1 and potentially bind to the active site of adenylate cyclase (PDB 1ab8) showing cytotoxic and cytostatic activity. We report in the current communication the use of Autodock vina and Molegro Virtual Docker software packages for the prediction of the approximate values of binding affinity to the active site of this protein of a series of manoyloxide derivatives. The prediction of the probable adsorption, transportation and toxicity of the synthesized as well as virtually modelled substances was computed on two online resources - SwissADME and ADMET labs. The main aim of the research was to identify with computational methods what are the rationales for the substances available in the laboratory to be addressed within biological activity studies and to perform a lead optimization in order to obtain a library of substances feasible for synthetize.Scheme 1. Manoiloxide derivatives The results of docking studies showed promising binding affinities for compounds 1-5, which also showed acceptable pharmacological parameters (Table 1). Compounds 2 and 3 have been obtained by synthesis and their biological activity studies are in progress.

Abstract:
The Atlantic razor clam (Ensis directus) digs by contracting its valves, fluidizing the surrounding soil and reducing burrowing drag. Moving through a fluidized, rather than static, soil requires energy that scales linearly with depth, rather than depth squared. In addition to providing an advantage for the animal, localized fluidization may provide significant value to engineering applications such as vehicle anchoring and underwater pipe installation. This paper presents the design of a self-actuated, radially expanding burrowing mechanism that utilizes E. directus burrowing methods. The device is sized to be a platform for an anchoring system for autonomous underwater vehicles. Scaling relationships presented allow for design of burrowing systems of different sizes for a variety of applications. The motion to sufficiently create soil fluidization is presented. Max force for the actuator to contract is based on force to pump fluid out of the device, and max expansion force is determined by the soil. Friction force in the device and potential considerations for increased force are presented. Data from laboratory tests are used to characterize how power is split between pumping water out of the device versus accelerating the mechanism itself. These relationships provide the optimal sizing and power needs for various size subsea burrowing systems.

Abstract:
The use of cutting-edge technologies such as the smartphones, smart bracelets, cloud computing, internet of things (IoT), e-Learning, and m-Health, as well as mobile applications has begun to increase in healthcare sectors, due to factors such as low cost, ease of use, mobility, multiple uses, and being reliable. This encouraged the international institutions, particularly health institutions, to increase their investment in healthcare technologies. We aim to develop a new specialized platform, an easy-to-use learning management system called Medical social media system, in order to improve the healthcare services in the Iraqi environment. It would be a social media system which can be used by users from their personal computer or Android devices in order to provide knowledge regarding users such as patients, medical students, new doctors and medical experts in the Iraqi health sector, where infrastructure needs to significantly develop, and medical information needs to be shared among medical workers as well as people in general. In this paper, we present a quantitative research by data collected from survey questionnaires, which are related to e-Learning and Medical social media system, in order to identify the main factors that influence the interest and the interaction of the medical specialists, new doctors, laboratory analysts, pharmacist, students of medical and biologic groups and patients interested in the health e-Learning and the cutting-edge health technologies through interactive Medical social media systems. Their interest and recommendations are taken into account while building an interactive specialized platform for medical social media system in the Iraqi environment.

Abstract:
We examined platelet aggregation (PAG = loss of single platelets), platelet dense granule release, and platelet injury (LDH loss) in normal human citrated platelet-rich plasma subjected to biologically more relevant repetitive, laminar shear stress of 25 and 50 dyn/cm2 in a computer-controlled cone-plate viscometer. Shear pulse duration (1-3 sec), shear pulse ramp function (rate of shear stress increase and decrease per pulse, 0.6-4 sec), number of shear pulses (1-20) and pauses between shear pulses (0-5 sec) were varied in different combinations to assess the effects of each variable on platelet alterations. Maximum PAG (92±8%) was observed with three 1 sec shear pulses, 0.6 sec ramp function and 1 sec between shear pause. PAG decreased with increasing ramp function, increasing number of shear pulses (>10), and increasing pause duration. Rapid platelet deaggregation (starting at 5 sec) was observed after a single 1 sec shear exposure. The rate of deaggregation decreased with increasing shear pulse number, increasing shear pulse amplitude, and increasing shear pulse duration. In contrast to PAG, dense granule release increased progressively with increasing shear pulse number, duration, and amplitude. No appreciable platelet injury (LDH loss) was observed under the conditions used. The findings indicate that massive reversible PAG can be induced by a single 1 sec shear pulse and that the extent of PAG with more prolonged, repetitive shear exposure is largely a function of platelet deaggregation rather than PAG. Thus, data previously reported from our laboratory and other investigators using prolonged (>5 sec) exposure of platelets to shear stress may require reevaluation.
