The folding mechanisms prediction of IG-like beta sandwich proteins based on inter-residue average distance statistics methods

Panyavut Aumpuchin and Takeshi Kikuchi

To understand the folding mechanism of a protein is one of the goals in bioinformatics study. Nowadays, it is enigmatic and difficult to extract the folding information from its amino acid sequence by using standard bioinformatics techniques or even experimental protocol which cost and time consuming.

Tuberculosis determination using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy and Chemometric methods

Raju Botta

Recently applications of Raman spectroscopy have been increased to various fields, especially clinical diagnosis. Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading causes of mortality in the world. WHO estimated that 10.4 M people were detected as active TB and about 1.4 M people died in 2015. However, propagation of TB can be prevented by early diagnosis and treatments
