Clean Water and Sanitation from the Aspect of the Covid-19 Pandemic
(SRH University HeidelbergNovi Sad: University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technical Sciences, 2021)
Shortly after the COVID-19 outbreak, most countries took active measures in response to the emergency. Frequent and proper handwashing is the most basic frontline defense against the spread of COVID-19 as an inexpensive, ...
Biothermodynamics of Viruses from Absolute Zero (1950) to Virothermodynamics (2022)
(MDPI, 2022)
Biothermodynamics of viruses is among the youngest but most rapidly developing scientific disciplines. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it closely followed the results published by molecular biologists. Empirical formulas ...
XBB.1.5 Kraken cracked: Gibbs energies of binding and biosynthesis of the XBB.1.5 variant of SARS-CoV-2
(Elsevier, 2023)
The SARS-CoV-2 Hydra with many heads (variants) has been causing the COVID-19 pandemic for 3 years. The appearance of every new head (SARS-CoV-2 variant) causes a new pandemic wave. The last in the series is the XBB.1.5 ...
Never ending story? Evolution of SARS-CoV-2 monitored through Gibbs energies of biosynthesis and antigen-receptor binding of Omicron BQ.1, BQ.1.1, XBB and XBB.1 variants
(Elsevier, 2023)
RNA viruses exhibit a great tendency to mutate. Mutations occur in the parts of the genome that encode the spike glycoprotein and less often in the rest of the genome. This is why Gibbs energy of binding changes more than ...
Strain Wars: Competitive interactions between SARS-CoV-2 strains are explained by Gibbs energy of antigen-receptor binding
(Elsevier, 2022)
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 has mutated several times into new strains, with an increased infectivity. Infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 strains depends on binding affinity of the virus to its host ...
Differences in infectivity and pathogenicity between Delta and Omicron strains of SARS-CoV-2 can be explained by Gibbs energies of binding and growth
(Vilnius, Lithuania : UAB "Kalanis", 2022)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, biothermodynamics has given its contribution to characterization
of viruses and research on energetics of processes performed by viruses [1-4]. Thermodynamic
properties represent the driving ...
Omicron BA.2.75 Sublineage (Centaurus) Follows the Expectations of the Evolution Theory: Less Negative Gibbs Energy of Biosynthesis Indicates Decreased Pathogenicity
(MDPI, 2022)
SARS-CoV-2 belongs to the group of RNA viruses with a pronounced tendency to mutate. Omicron BA.2.75 is a subvariant believed to be able to suppress the currently dominant BA.5 and cause a new winter wave of the COVID-19 ...
The SARS-CoV-2 Hydra, a tiny monster from the 21st century: Thermodynamics of the BA.5.2 and BF.7 variants
(Elsevier, 2023)
SARS-CoV-2 resembles the ancient mythical creature Hydra. Just like with the Hydra, when one head is cut, it is followed by appearance of two more heads, suppression of one SARS-CoV-2 variant causes appearance of newer ...
