Recently, fish parasites have been used as a biomonitoring tool to indicate the health status of ecosystems. Therefore, this research aimed to evaluate the potential capacity of Contracaecum quadripapillatum larvae as accumulation indicators for metal pollution and compare metal concentrations in host tissues of non-infected and infected fish: Lates niloticus from the Nile River. Accumulations of Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn in larval nematodes and tissues of the liver, kidney, and muscles of both infected and non-infected fish were determined. All metal concentrations exhibit a significantly higher increase in larval nematodes than the muscles of infected fish and vice versa except Cd in the kidney. On the other hand, only Cd, Mn, Pb, and Zn concentrations were significantly higher in the parasite than in the host liver. Therefore, bioaccumulation factors were most obvious and effective in the muscles of infected 

Designing molecules for drugs has been a hot topic for many decades. However, it is hard and expensive to find a new molecule. Thus, the cost of the final drug is also increased. Machine learning can provide the fastest way to predict the biological activity of druglike molecules. In the present work, machine learning models are trained for the prediction of the biological activity of aromatase inhibitors. Data was collected from the literature. Molecular descriptors are calculated to be used as independent features for model training. The results showed that the R² values for linear regression, random forest regression, gradient boosting regression, and bagging regression are 0.58, 0.84, 0.77, and 0.80, respectively. Using these models, it is possible to predict the activity of new molecules in a short period of time and at a reasonable cost. Furthermore, Tanimoto similarity is used for similarity analysis, as well as a

Here a developed one-dimensional (1D) topological photonic crystal (PC) heterostructure for gas sensing is proposed by replacing air layers with the sensing material (gas) layers. Two promising sensing devices are proposed in the present study. In the first device, all air layers are replaced with gas layers, while only the interface layer is replaced in the second device. Accordingly, these two detection mechanisms make the proposed sensor a novel detector for low and high-refractive index gases. The proposed structure achieves numerically high values of all features sensor parameters, eg, high sensitivity of 888.285 n m/R I U and 806.658 n m/R I U of two modes, respectively, high-quality factor values reached 10 5. The figure of merit is higher than 10 5 R I U− 1 with a perfect value of detection limit around 10− 6 R I U. The proposed sensor supplies a potential platform to push the current technology's ability to …

Topological photonics offers enhanced control over electromagnetic fields by providing a platform for robust trapping and guiding topological states of light. The topological rainbow can separate and distribute different wavelengths of topological photonic states into different positions, but related topological devices have not yet been fully explored. In this work, topological rainbows are realized by inserting a sandwiched gradient structure in the topological waveguide to realize the topological edge states. A robust one‐way slow‐light coupling state is realized to broaden the frequency range of the formed topological rainbow with the robust transmission. Thus, multiple topological rainbows are realized by combining the topological property with immunity to backscattering and coupling states of the slow light. Accordingly, light can spread, separate, and thus be trapped at different positions in different directions. This …

In this paper, we address a new version of Darboux frame using a common tangent vector
field to a surface along a curve and call this frame the rotation minimizing Darboux frame (RMDF).
Then, we give the parametric equation due to the RMDF frame for a sweeping surface and show that the
parametric curves on this surface are curvature lines. Consequently, necessary and sucient conditions
for sweeping surfaces to be developable ruled surfaces are derived. Also, we analyze the conditions
when the resulting developable surface is a cylinder, cone or tangential surface. We also provide some
examples to illustrate the main results.

In this paper using the Blaschke approach we generalized the Bertrand curves to spacelike
ruled and developable surfaces. It is proved that, every spacelike ruled surface have a Bertrand oset
if and only if an equation should be fulfilled among their dual integral invariants. Consequently, some
new relationships and theorems for the developability of the Bertrand osets of spacelike ruled surfaces
are outlined.

In this work, we introduce a time-like ruled surface in one-parameter hyperbolic dual spherical motions. This provides the ability
to derive some formulae of surface theory into line spaces. Then, a time-like Plücker conoid associated with the motion has been
obtained, and its kinematic geometry is researched in detail. Consequently, a characterization for a time-like ruled surface to be a
constant Disteli-axis is derived and investigated in detail. At last, we have discussed some special cases which lead to some special
time-like ruled surfaces such as the time-like helicoids, Lorentzian sphere, and time-like cone.

In this paper, the relationships among the instantaneous invariants of a one-parameter Lorentzian spatial movement and the
local invariants of the axodes are studied. New proofs for Euler–Savary, and Disteli formulae are given which demonstrate
the elegance and efficiency of the E. Study map in Lorentzian spatial kinematics. Consequently, two spacelike line congruences
are introduced and their spatial equivalent are examined in detail.
