Multiple linear regression and artificial neural networks for delta-endotoxin and protease yields modelling of Bacillus thuringiensis
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The aim of the present work was to develop a model that supplies accurate predictions of the yields of delta-endotoxins and proteases produced by B. thuringiensis var. kurstaki HD-1. Using available medium ingredients as ...
Rotavirus strain diversity in the Centre Coast of Tunisia from 2000 through 2003
(
Oxford University Press
, 2010 , Article)
An epidemiological survey investigating rotavirus infection in children was undertaken in the coastal region of Tunisia from January 2000 through September 2003. A total of 309 fecal specimens were screened by enzyme-linked ...
Usefulness of COMT gene polymorphisms in North African populations
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The COMT gene encodes for catechol-O-methyl-transferase, an enzyme playing a major role in regulation of synaptic catecholamine neurotransmitters. Investigating 4 markers of the COMT gene (rs2020917, rs4818, rs4680, ...

Ecosvstem service is a very important issue for current, sustainable scientific research. Environmental protection and management requirements are increasing and policymakers hope to incorporate ecological service information ...
Application of statistical experimental design for optimisation of bioinsecticides production by sporeless Bacillus thuringiensis strain on cheap medium
(
Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia - SBM
, 2014 , Article)
In order to overproduce bioinsecticides production by a sporeless Bacillus thuringiensis strain, an optimal composition of a cheap medium was defined using a response surface methodology. In a first step, a Plackett-Burman ...
