Binding affinities/avidities of antibody-antigen interactions: quantification and scale-up implications.

abstract：:The implementation of control algorithms to batch bioreactors is often complicated by variations in process dynamics that occur during the course of fermentation. Such a wide operating range often renders the performance of fixed gain proportional-integral-differential (PID) controllers unsatisfactory. In this work, d...
