We have developed a novel method of high-throughput Multiplexed Competitive Antibody Binning (MCAB). Using only a small amount of antibody and antigen, this method enables the sorting of a large, complex panel of monoclonal antibodies into different bins based on cross-competition for antigen binding. The MCAB assay builds on Luminex multiplexing bead-based technology to detect antibody competition. Because of its high sensitivity, the MCAB method is immediately applicable after identification of antigen-positive mAbs, providing information useful for advancing mAb candidates into further testing. The MCAB assay also can be used for sorting mAbs into binding groups after screening for functional activity.

Analyzing microbial samples remains computationally challenging due to their diversity and complexity. The lack of robust de novo protein function prediction methods exacerbates the difficulty in deriving functional insights from these samples. Traditional prediction methods, dependent on homology and sequence similarity, often fail to predict functions for novel proteins and proteins without known homologs.

Shaanxi Key Laboratory of Complex System Control and Intelligent Informantion Processing, Xi'an University of Technology, Xi'an 710048, China.

In the integrated radar and communication system (IRCS), the design of signal that can simultaneously satisfy the radar detection and communication transmission is very important and difficult. Recently, some new properties of a class of solvable chaotic system have been studied for wireless applications, such as low bit error rate (BER) wireless communications and low cost target detection. In this paper, a novel IRCS based on the chaotic signal is proposed, and the performance of proposed scheme is analyzed.

Warfarin is the most widely used oral anticoagulant in clinical practice. The cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9), vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1), and cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) genotypes are associated with warfarin dose requirements in China. Accurate genotyping is vital for obtaining reliable genotype-guided warfarin dosing information.
