L'Institut de Biologie et Chimie des Proteines to Deploy E-WorkBook Suite to Accelerate Analysis of Nanoparticles
GUILDFORD, UK and BURLINGTON, MA--(Marketwire - December 2, 2009) - IDBS, the leading worldwide provider of research data management and analytics solutions to R&D organizations, today announced that L'Institut de Biologie et Chimie des Proteines (IBCP), a principal research institute based in Lyon, France, has selected E-WorkBook Suite to manage its research data and knowledge in developing nanoparticles for the treatment of viral infections.
Partnering with leading French and EU research organizations and universities, IBCP is advancing research into the creation of vaccines using nanoparticles made of polylactic acid (PLA), in sizes ranging from 150nm to 400nm, which can emulate the actions of antigens and create a new generation of targeted therapeutics. The biological application of nanoparticles is an area of nanotechnology that is rapidly developing, and it raises new possibilities in the diagnosis and treatment of HIV, Anthrax and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus).
By using all aspects of E-WorkBook, scientists at IBCP can benefit from a flexible framework to capture, analyze, and manage their experimental data in an efficient and compliant way. The solution's extensive searching and reporting capabilities will accelerate their pace of research, and maximize the quality and re-use of their data. IBCP is provided with an application that will streamline workflow, accelerate discovery research, and improve productivity, while ensuring quality control for standard operating procedures (SOPs) and protecting Intellectual Property (IP).
"I was impressed with the quality of results E-WorkBook produced for our colleagues from CEA (Fontenay-aux-Roses, France), and therefore it was the natural choice for our laboratory," said Professor Bernard Verrier, Senior Scientist at IBCP. "Using E-WorkBook we will have a clearer picture of the research going on in our lab, improving the quality and quantity of reports and scientific papers, and enabling better interpretation of results. Using this solution to manage our data will save us several months of work, preventing duplication of experiments and ensuring that new users to the system have a comprehensive view of all data."
"Nanotechnology is at the leading-edge of scientific research that has the potential to push technological boundaries," said Neil Kipling, founder and CEO of IDBS. "IBCP recognizes the power and flexibility of the E-WorkBook Suite and how it can be applied to further their pioneering work, which could represent a breakthrough in vaccinations for potentially fatal diseases. This relationship reaffirms IDBS' position at the forefront of scientific endeavor."
About IBCP
L'Institut de Biologie et Chimie des Proteines (IBCP), a 6000m2 research unit (UMR 5086) administered jointly by the CNRS and by Lyon University, is located in Lyon (France). This "Protein Science" institute was created administratively in 1990 on the initiative of CNRS. The current director of IBCP is Prof. Gilbert Deléage. IBCP is an interdisciplinary research center focused on the "Molecular bases of infectious diseases" and "Cell and tissue dynamics." This center brings together 180 people distributed into 14 groups covering many scale approaches (atomic with NMR and crystallography, molecular studies with biochemistry techniques, cell biology cellular and tissular).

Algebra, logarithmic functions, thank you?
To measure the volume of loudness of a sound, the decibel scale is used. The loudness L in decibels (db) of the sound is given by: L =10 log I/I0 where I is the intensity of the sound.
Solve: The band Strange Folk performed in Burlington VT and reached sound levels of 111 db. What is the intensity of the sounds? This is my answer, but my teacher says I did it wrong. Here's what he wrote:
You have made some errors on this question.
--------------------------
L =10 log I/I0
111 = 10 log (l/10)
--------------------------
should be
L =10 log I/I0
111 = 10 log (l/10^(-12)
11.1=log I - log 10^ (-12)
Now solve for I
Thanks!
Well I have no idea whats going on but I will solve this equation: 11.1=log I - log 10^ (-12)
Rearranging 11.1=log I - log 10^ (-12),
11.1=lg I - (-12) (power law)
= lg I + 12
lg I = 11.1 - 12
= -0.9
10^(-0.9) = I
I = 0.126 (3s.f.)
Have fun.
