ABSTRACT
In recent years, due to the impact of COVID-19 around the world, there has been a serious shortage of medical resources. In order to supplement the manpower and fear that medical staff's contact with patients will cause a breach in the epidemic, reduce the workload of nurses, and help nurses perform repetitive tasks so that nurses can concentrate more on the patient's condition. Therefore, this paper proposes M-Robot, which is a friendly interface service robot based on the Android system and can be controlled by voice, touch, and remote control in the medical care field. The system is mainly divided into two parts. One is the web server. The web server is divided into two parts: front-end and back-end. The front-end is responsible for friendly user interface management, and the back-end is for accessing the SQLite database, as well as processing speech recognition and semantic understanding in voice services. In the other part, we use TEMI robot to develop and complete the desired service. Its service content includes environment introduction, delivery service, questionnaire survey, broadcast car, scheduling reminder, follow-up record, and patient instruction video. In the voice control mode, the user can say the wake-up word to the robot and say the required service content, and the robot will execute after receiving the message;in the remote control mode, we provide a friendly web interface for remote control. As well as the information needed to manage various services. © 2022 IEEE.
ABSTRACT
The pandemic that started in 2019 in Wuhan caused a vast number of deaths worldwide due to the absence of effective therapy against SARS-CoV-2. The present study investigates the interaction of AMP with viral protein and host receptors. We screened plant-derived antimicrobial peptides (AMP) from the docking web server with the help of PDB ID. We selected five anti-microbial peptides based on their antiviral and physiological activities. The interaction of anti-microbial peptide and Mpro was analyzed using the HADDOCK web server. The results revealed that the minimum Z-score was obtained by the 6LU7-1N4N complex followed by 6LU7-1GPS docked complex. The docking results showed the interaction potency of AMP with 6LU7. The dynamic simulation study of 100ns was performed to check the stability of the docked complexes of AMP and 6LU7. From the stable and positive results of dynamics studies, we can conclude that these selected AMPs have immense potential to be used as therapeutic agents for the treatment of disease. © 2022 The authors and IOS Press.
ABSTRACT
The amount of raw data has exponentially increased due to tools and technologies for analysis of biologic organisms (including viruses). The task now, therefore, is to have computational systems that allow the average researcher to calculate information to store, retrieve, visualize, and analyze data. Fortunately, the advancement of computer technology, particularly that relating to databases, has balanced continuous improvements to data-intensive biologic technologies. This research forms the foundation of many of the bioinformatics technologies that provide an overview of the different databases available for viruses and how they provide valuable information from the stored biologic data. The different tools associated with virus analysis are also discussed, accompanied by a summary of several online databases that contain general biologic and viral data. The chapter also features a case study on evaluating genome relationship between SARS-CoV-2 strains at different geolocations. © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
ABSTRACT
Peerconnect is a great solution for virtual event management. Peerconnect is an all-in-one event management platform for promoting and conducting online events on the same platform. The point of virtual event management software is to allow users to create hosts and manage the events at ease without having to depend on many software to accomplish different tasks. So, the event management software Peerconnect has established the pipeline for people who want to promote, manage and conduct virtual events. Organizers can create the events on the platform and can promote and sell the tickets to other users on the same platform. Organizers can host live chat rooms and live discussions with video calling capabilities as well. Peerconnect is a web application using which the user can get to know about the events which are conducted virtually. Once the user selects the event, then he has to register for it. Once the registration is successful, user can attend the event on the same platform. Once the registration is successful, users can successfully login and they can search for an event that they are interested in and filter them according to their interests. Once the user selects the event then they have to register for it. Once registration for the event is successful, user can join the event in just one click and attend the event on the same platform and can download the participation certificate as well. If a registered user misses an event, he can still watch the recorded session of that event anytime after its completion. The event organizer can create an organization and later post the event. During the event, the organizer can send files and use the chat feature to engage and clear doubts of the attendees. They can also share their screen so that it is visible to all the attendees. Organizers can also capture the attendance of those who are attending, based on which the attendees can be able to download their participation certificates. © 2022 IEEE.
ABSTRACT
The spread of COVID-19 disease has reduced the visitors count to various public places like parks, libraries and museums. Even though Indian Government has relaxed the rules for the public to visit these places during the early 2021, people deny visiting those places due to the fear created by the impact of the disease. This leads to huge revenue loss due to lack of visitors. In order to solve this issue, a safer visiting procedure through a Mobile Application based Secured Smart Museum (MSSM) has been provided. This system strictly monitors the entry of the visitors through two way screening process which ensures the safety of the visitors at the museum. Two-way screening process involves the measuring the temperature of the visitors with the support of IR temperature sensor and monitoring the availability of the face mask with the help of Open Computer Vision. The system also facilitates the users to book the ticket through Mobile Application. This system also alerts the museum's housekeeping department to clean and sanitize the museum based upon the visitors count. In addition to this, our system facilitates the visitors to gain the knowledge about the contents available in the museum through mobile application itself in their own preferred language. © 2022 IEEE.
ABSTRACT
We present an open source, fully wireless potentiostat (the “NanoStat”) for applications in electrochemistry, sensing, biomedical diagnostics, and nanotechnology, based on only 2 integrated circuit chips: A digital microcontroller with integrated on board WiFi and file/web server hardware/software, and an analog front end. This versatile platform is fully capable of all modern electrochemisty assays, including cyclic voltammetry, square wave voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and normal pulse voltammetry. The user interface is a web browser connected over http. All the code (firmware, HTML5, JavaScript) is hosted by the NanoStat itself without the need for any additional software. The total size is 4×40×20 mm and battery operation for 6 h is demonstrated, possible to extend to weeks or months in sleep mode. We anticipate that the applications of this could be very broad, from biomedical sensing in the clinic, to remote monitoring of unattended “motes”, to even possibly sensing aerial pathogens such as COVID in large public spaces without the need for anything other than a web browser for remote monitoring from anywhere in the world. Finally, we propose to use this software suite as a basis (kernel) of a fully open source, general purpose, web based electrochemistry software suite, ed from the hardware, which we call “OpenEChem”. © 2022
ABSTRACT
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread around the world with high mortality rates. Since this virus constantly mutating rapidly, it causes different kinds of variants such as the Delta Plus variant, and this variant even dominated the original Delta variant. Thus, designing a new primer-probe set is required to cope with the new variant effectively. However, the existing primer-probe set design tools are also effective in designing for a given sequence, but it is difficult to consider all variants or off-target. Here, we introduce a web-based method for designing and validating primer-probe sets for SARS-CoV-2. Through the web server we built, a user could get results of the binding site matching, homology tests, and variant coverage calculation of the primer-probe set they designed. Moreover, a user also could find the primer-probe sets which bind as many SARS-CoV-2 variants as possible by using the user-input FASTA sequence. We believe that our web service would help researchers by reducing the difficulty of designing primers and probes of SARS-CoV-2. © 2021 IEEE.
