Modeling Overview


Introduction



Mathematical modeling is a useful tool in synthetic biology, as it allows us to describe the relationship between different parameters and variables during biochemical processes using a set of mathematical equations. In our project, we used mathematical modeling to obtain quantitative solutions to several problems we encounter in our project.

 

Mathematical Modeling



In our first model, we have predicted the optimum concentration of the aptamer added while drug loading to improve the aptamers' binding affinity by mainly applying the principles and theories of calculus. By doing so, the efficiency of the drug we use can be substantially increased.
