Modeling free tumor growth: Discrete, continuum, and hybrid approaches to interpreting cancer development.

Tumor growth dynamics serve as a critical aspect of understanding cancer progression and treatment response to mitigate one of the most pressing challenges in healthcare. The in silico approach to understanding tumor behavior computationally provides an efficient, cost-effective alternative to wet-lab examinations and are adaptable to different environmental conditions, time scales, and unique patient parameters. As a result, this paper explored modeling of free tumor growth in cancer, surveying contemporary literature on continuum, discrete, and hybrid approaches.

COMPARISON OF AGAROSE GEL AND CAPILLARY ZONE ELECTROPHORESIS METHODS USING PLASMA FROM GREEN TURTLES ().

Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) has been widely implemented throughout veterinary medicine and for analysis of plasma proteins of avian and reptile species. Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is becoming a standard method in human clinical pathology laboratories but has not widely been used for the analysis of animal samples. The objective of the present study was to compare protein fractions derived from AGE and CZE methods using plasma from the green turtle ().
