Affinity purification of human factor H on polypeptides derived from streptococcal m protein: enrichment of the Y402 variant.

Recent studies indicate that defective activity of complement factor H (FH) is associated with several human diseases, suggesting that pure FH may be used for therapy.Here, we describe a simple method to isolate human FH, based on the specific interaction between FH and the hypervariable region (HVR) of certain Streptococcus pyogenes M proteins.Spe

Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch Using Chaotic Bat Algorithm

In this paper, the chaotic bat algorithm (CBA) is applied to solve the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem taking into account small-scale, medium-scale and large-scale power systems.ORPD plays a key role in the power system operation and control.The ORPD problem is formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear programming problem, comprising
