Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is a critical factor in the pathogenesis of asthma.Manipulating gut microbiota is a promising therapeutic intervention in asthma, and is being extensively studied.Gu-Ben-Fang-Xiao Decoction (GBFXD), VITAMINS derived from traditional Chinese medicine, is an effective and safe therapeutic formula for asthma in remission st
Power Quality Analysis of Controlled Rectifiers and their Impact on Input Power System
Pakistan these days facing major energy crisis especially in the power sector.But to overcome these crisis major companies and the govt.of Pakistan is playing vital role so that supply could meet the demand.In association to this a major project National Power System Expansion Plan 2011-2030 has started which further increases the complexity of pow
Phenotypic characterization of peripheral T cells and their dynamics in scrub typhus patients.
BackgroundScrub typhus, caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi infection, is one of the main causes of febrile illness in the Asia-Pacific region.Although cell-mediated immunity plays an important role in protection, little is known about the phenotypic changes and dynamics of leukocytes in scrub typhus patients.Methodology/principal findingsTo reveal th
Use of Bilinear Structures for Modelling a Brewery Fermentation Process
This paper presents the results of an investigative study with the aim being to obtain and assess the appropriateness of bilinear model structures for replicating the characteristics of a brewery fermentation process.Based on realtime VITAMINS data taken from a brewery fermentation plant, it is shown that a discrete-time twin-bilinear model, which
Bioengineering to Accelerate Biodiesel Production for a Sustainable Biorefinery
Biodiesel is an alternative, carbon-neutral fuel compared to fossil-based diesel, which can reduce greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions.Biodiesel is a product of microorganisms, crop plants, and animal-based oil and has the potential to prosper as a sustainable and renewable energy source and tackle growing energy problems.Biodiesel has a similar compos
