Analysis of bacteria damages caused by treatment with oxygen plasma particles
The possible mechanisms for destruction of two types of bacteria with oxygen radicals were studied. Samples consisting of standard ATCC strains of Gram – positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Gram – negative bacteria Escherichia coli were obtained. Bacteria were cultivated according to the standard procedures and fixed on substrates of …
Development of an alternative approach to membrane protein structure determination based on the analysis of local rotational conformational spaces
The problem of structure determination of membrane proteins is addressed with a new combination of site-directed spin labelling (SDSL) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and structure modelling of a protein and its conformational spaces. This new approach is aimed at structural characterization of membrane proteins and intrinsically disordered proteins. In …
Modular gene dynamics and network theory at mesoscopic scale
Complex dynamical systems are often modeled as networks, with nodes representing dynamical units which interact through the network’s links. Gene regulatory networks, responsible for the production of proteins inside a cell, are an example of system that can be described as a network of interacting genes. The behavior of a …
Dynamic Modeling of Climate Change Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Reduction with Renewable Energy in Kosovo
Atmospheric concentration of CO2 and other greenhouse gases (GHG) is higher than any time in the last 400000 years and growing faster than at any time in the past 18000 years. The high concentration of GHG generates radiative forcing that contributes to climate change. Energy production from fossil fuels has …
Mass Balance of Mercury in the Idrijca River Catchment
Mercury (Hg) pollution has been investigated in the area of the Idrija mercury mine, Slovenia, where the second largest mercury mine in the world operated for more then 500 years. Although the production of mercury at the Idrija mercury mine stopped in 1994, centuries of mining and ore processing operations …
Solution synthesis of nanoparticles in multicomponent oxide systems
The study of PbZrO3 (PZ), PbTiO3 (PT) and La2Zr2O7 (LZ) prepared by alkoxide sol-gel synthesis is described. PZ and PT sols were prepared from lead acetate, zirconium and titanium n-butoxide, in n-butanol and hydrolysed with Rw (molar ratio of water per lead acetate) between 2 and 15 in neutral medium …
