    Abstract
    There are, to date, few general answers to fundamental questions related to the interactions of nanoparticles (NPs) with living cells. Studies reported in the literature have delivered only limited principles about the nano-bio interface and thus the biological behavior of NPs is yet far from being completely understood. Combining computational tools with experimental approaches in this regard helps to precisely probe the nano-bio interface and allows the development of predictive and descriptive relationships between the structure and the activity of nanomaterials. In the present contribution, a nano-quantitative structure-activity relationship (nano-QSAR) model has been statistically...

    Abstract
    Quantitative Structure - Activity Relationship (QSAR) models for the inhibition action of some 1-phenylbenzimidazoles on platelet-derived growth are constructed using Genetic Algorithm and Artificial Neural Network (GA-ANN) method. The statistical parameters of R2 and root-mean-square error are 0.82 and 0.21, respectively using this method. These parameters show a considerable improvement compared to the stepwise multiple linear regression combined with ANN (stepwise MLR-ANN). Ten-fold shuffling crossvalidations are carried out to select the most important descriptors. Five descriptors of index of Balaban (J), average molecular weight (AMW), 3D-Wiener index (W3D), mean atomic van der Waals...

    , Article Food Chemistry ; Volume 344 , 2021 ; 03088146 (ISSN) Amirvaresi, A ; Nikounezhad, N ; Amirahmadi, M ; Daraei, B ; Parastar, H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Elsevier Ltd  2021
    Abstract
    In this work, the potential of near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy along with chemometrics was investigated for authentication and adulteration detection of Iranian saffron samples. First, authentication of one-hundred saffron samples was examined by principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed the NIR spectroscopy can better predict the origin of samples than the MIR. Next, partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was developed to detect four common plant-derived adulterants (i.e., saffron style, calendula, safflower, and rubia). In all cases, PLS-DA classification figures of merit in terms of sensitivity, specificity, error rate and accuracy were...

    2009
    Abstract
    This study deals with developing a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model for describing and predicting the inhibition activity of 1-(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-piperidinyl derivatives as CCR5 modulators. Applying the multiple linear regressions (MLR) and its inability in predicting the inhibition behavior showed that the interaction has no linear characteristics. To assess the nonlinear characteristics of the inhibition activity artificial neural networks (ANN) was used for data modeling. In order to select the variables needed for developing ANNs, three variable selection algorithms were used: Stepwise-MLR, genetic algorithm-partial least squares (GA-PLS), and Bayesian...

    Abstract
    In this work, a colorimetric sensor array has been designed for the identification and discrimination of thiometon (TM) and phosalone (PS) as organophosphate pesticides and prothioconazole (PC) as a triazole pesticide. For this purpose, two different plasmonic nanoparticles including unmodified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and unmodified silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were used as sensing elements. The principle of the proposed strategy relied on the aggregation AuNPs and AgNPs through the cross-reactive interaction between the target pesticides and plasmonic nanoparticles. Therefore, these aggregation-induced UV–Vis spectra changes were utilized to discriminate the target pesticides with the...

    , Article Journal of Chromatography A ; Volume 1438 , 2016 , Pages 236-243 ; 00219673 (ISSN) Parastar, H ; Bazrafshan, A ; Sharif University of Technology
    Elsevier 
    Abstract
    Fuzzy C-means clustering (FCM) is proposed as a promising method for the clustering of chromatographic fingerprints of complex samples, such as essential oils. As an example, secondary metabolites of 14 citrus leaves samples are extracted and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The obtained chromatographic fingerprints are divided to desired number of chromatographic regions. Owing to the fact that chromatographic problems, such as elution time shift and peak overlap can significantly affect the clustering results, therefore, each chromatographic region is analyzed using multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) to address these problems. Then,...
