Mixed Effects Models for the Population Approach Models Tasks Methods and Tools

Mixed Effects Models for the Population Approach Models Tasks Methods and Tools

Wide-Ranging Coverage of Parametric Modeling in Linear and Nonlinear Mixed Effects ModelsMixed Effects Models for the Population Approach: Models Tasks Methods and Tools presents a rigorous framework for describing implementing and using mixed effects models. With these models readers can perform parameter estimation and modeling across a whole population of individuals at the same time. Easy-to-Use Techniques and Tools for Real-World Data ModelingThe book first shows how the framework allows model representation for different data types including continuous categorical count and time-to-event data. This leads to the use of generic methods such as the stochastic approximation of the EM algorithm (SAEM) for modeling these diverse data types. The book also covers other essential methods including Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and importance sampling techniques. The author uses publicly available software tools to illustrate modeling tasks. Methods are implemented in Monolix and models are visually explored using Mlxplore and simulated using Simulx. Careful Balance of Mathematical Representation and Practical ImplementationThis book takes readers through the whole modeling process from defining/creating a parametric model to performing tasks on the model using various mathematical methods. Statisticians and mathematicians will appreciate the rigorous representation of the models and theoretical properties of the methods while modelers will welcome the practical capabilities of the tools. The book is also useful for training and teaching in any field where population modeling occurs. | Mixed Effects Models for the Population Approach Models Tasks Methods and Tools

Natural Products Alternate Therapeutic as Quorum Sensing (QS) Inhibitors

Natural Products Alternate Therapeutic as Quorum Sensing (QS) Inhibitors

Microbial biofilm plays an important role in the life cycle of microorganisms surviving in diverse and harsh environments such as extremes of temperatures pH salinity nutrient scarcity etc. Biofilm formation is a survival strategy adopted by microorganisms allowing colonization in new niches by dispersal of microbes from the microbial clusters embedded within an outer polymer layer produced by the microorganism itself. This layer comprises of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that helps the indwelling microbes to grow and divide in a protected environment against invaders like antimicrobial agents surfactant biocides and phagocytic cells of host organisms. Thus EPS matrix prevents the penetration of antimicrobials thereby allowing the indwelling microbes to survive and give rise to antimicrobial resistance posing threat to human health. The present book highlights a detailed analysis of the mechanism of biofilm formation in both Gram positive and Gram-negative bacteria and the role of quorum sensing signaling mechanism in the genetic regulation pathway. The book titled Natural Products: Alternative therapeutics as Quorum Sensing (QS) inhibitors provides a detailed and systematic review of mechanism of quorum sensing in both Gram positive and Gram-negative bacteria and alternative pharmacological developments as a potent solution to the rise of antimicrobial resistance during biofilm formation. Features: A systematic overview of the mechanism of quorum sensing in the development of microbial biofilms Biofilm formation and its role in the emergence of antimicrobial resistance Recent pharmacological development of antibiofilm remedies involving biogenic compounds This book serves as a reference book for researchers investigating the progression of events during microbial biofilm formation starting from the genetic cascade regulating quorum sensing to secretion of autoinducers and design of safer methodologies for the successful eradication of microbial biofilm. It may also be used as a textbook for a undergraduate level course in microbiology or microbial biotechnology. | Natural Products Alternate Therapeutic as Quorum Sensing (QS) Inhibitors

Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios

Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios

DNA testing and its forensic analysis are recognized as the “gold standard” in forensic identification science methods. However there is a great need for a hands-on step-by-step guide to teach the forensic DNA community how to interpret DNA mixtures how to assign a likelihood ratio and how to use the subsequent likelihood ratio when reporting interpretation conclusions. Forensic DNA Profiling: A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios will provide a roadmap for labs all over the world and the next generation of analysts who need this foundational understanding. The techniques used in forensic DNA analysis are based upon the accepted principles of molecular biology. The interpretation of a good-quality DNA profile generated from a crime scene stain from a single-source donor provides an unambiguous result when using the most modern forensic DNA methods. Unfortunately many crime scene profiles are not single source. They are described as mixed since they contain DNA from two or more individuals. Interpretation of DNA mixtures represents one of the greatest challenges to the forensic DNA analyst. As such the book introduces terms used to describe DNA profiles and profile interpretation. Chapters explain DNA extraction methods the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) capillary electrophoresis (CE) likelihood ratios (LRs) and their interpretation and population genetic models—including Mendelian inheritance and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. It is important that analysts understand how LRs are generated in a probabilistic framework ideally with an appreciation of both semicontinuous and fully continuous probabilistic approaches. KEY FEATURES:• The first book to focus entirely on DNA mixtures and the complexities involved with interpreting the results • Takes a hands-on approach offering theory with worked examples and exercises to be easily understood and implementable by laboratory personnel • New methods heretofore unpublished previously provide a means to innovate deconvoluting a mixed DNA profile assign an LR and appropriately report the weight of evidence • Includes a chapter on assigning LRs for close relatives (i. e. “It’s not me it was my brother”) and discusses strategies for the validation of probabilistic genotyping softwareForensic DNA Profiling fills the void for labs unfamiliar with LRs and moving to probabilistic solutions and for labs already familiar with LRs but wishing to understand how they are calculated in more detail. The book will be a welcome read for lab professionals and technicians students and legal professionals seeking to understand and apply the techniques covered. | Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios
