Formulation of a Combined Transportation and Inventory Optimization Model with Multiple Time Periods

IJERA Journal

Most distribution network design models existing in the literature have focused on minimizing the costs of inventory and transportation. During the analysis of supply chain of currency management problem it is observed that the transportation of currency from various sources to various destinations and the required inventory to be maintained to meet the emerging demands requires formulation of a combined problem. This framework aims to support the coordination of inventory and transportation activities to properly manage the inventory profiles and currency flows between source locations and distribution centers. This paper considers a multi-period inventory and transportation model for a single commodity. The key contribution of this paper is, a mathematical programming formulation of transportation cum inventory problem is proposed and an algorithm for this new formulation as a multi period decision process is intended. A numerical example of currency transportation cum inventory is presented to illustrate the proposed algorithm.

Respiratory burst enzymes, oxidant antioxidant status in Nigerian children with sickle cell disease

Elizabeth Disu

Aim: To measure respiratory burst enzymes, pro-oxidants, antioxidants and red cell indices in Nigerian children with sickle cell disease (HbSS) below five years of age and compared with apparently healthy children with normal haemoglobin (HbAA). Method: A total of 45 subjects were recruited which included 23 children (age range 10 – 48 months) with HbSS and 22 children (age- and sex- matched) with HbAA. Blood samples were collected and red cell indices were determined using automated haematology analyser while serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities were measured using ELISA kits. Serum malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), glutathione S transferase (GST), catalase (Cat), xanthine oxidase (XO) and glutathione (GSH) were measured with colorimetric techniques. MPO, SOD and Cat represented respiratory burst enzymes; MDA, H2O2 and XO were measured as pro-oxidants while GSH, GST and GSH-Px were the measured antioxi...

Histopathologic evaluation of postmortem autolytic changes in bluegill (Lepomis macrohirus) and crappie (Pomoxis anularis) at varied time intervals and storage temperatures

2016 •

Gregory Lewbart

Information is lacking on preserving fish carcasses to minimize postmortem autolysis artifacts when a necropsy cannot be performed immediately. The purpose of this study was to qualitatively identify and score histologic postmortem changes in two species of freshwater fish (bluegill-Lepomis macrochirus; crappie-Pomoxis annularis), at varied time intervals and storage temperatures, to assess the histologic quality of collected samples. A pooled sample of 36 mix sex individuals of healthy bluegill and crappie were euthanized, stored either at room temperature, refrigerated at 4 °C, or frozen at -20 °C, and then necropsied at 0, 4, 24, and 48 h intervals. Histologic specimens were evaluated by light microscopy. Data showed that immediate harvesting of fresh samples provides the best quality and refrigeration would be the preferred method of storage if sample collection had to be delayed for up to 24 h. When sample collection must be delayed more than 24 h, the preferred method of stora...

NMR Studies of Retroviral Genome Packaging

2020 •

Janae B Brown

Nearly all retroviruses selectively package two copies of their unspliced RNA genomes from a cellular milieu that contains a substantial excess of non-viral and spliced viral RNAs. Over the past four decades, combinations of genetic experiments, phylogenetic analyses, nucleotide accessibility mapping, in silico RNA structure predictions, and biophysical experiments were employed to understand how retroviral genomes are selected for packaging. Genetic studies provided early clues regarding the protein and RNA elements required for packaging, and nucleotide accessibility mapping experiments provided insights into the secondary structures of functionally important elements in the genome. Three-dimensional structural determinants of packaging were primarily derived by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. A key advantage of NMR, relative to other methods for determining biomolecular structure (such as X-ray crystallography), is that it is well suited for studies of conformation...

Case Report: Delineated Radiocolloid Hepatic “Hot Spot” With Superior Vena Caval Obstruction

1980 •

Don Talley

When imaging the liver in the presence of superior vena caval obstruction, a region of increased radiocolloid uptake may occur in the area of the porta hepatis. Recently, this was demonstrated with a 32-year-old male patient. With advances in electronic spatial resolution, however, the imaged "hot" area is now considerably better delineated. This artifact within the liver in the presence of superior vena caval obstruction is thought to be due to collateral intrahepatic circulation in the liver's caudate lobe.

FAQs

What are the four levels at which logistics information is needed? ›

From first-party logistics (1PL) where companies handle their own operations, to fourth-party logistics (4PL) and fifth-party logistics (5PL) that provide strategic coordination and leverage advanced technologies, each level brings distinct capabilities and expertise to optimize supply chain performance.

What are the 7 C's of logistics? ›

We identify, based on the literature, the '7 Cs of supply chain management': Connect, Create, Customise, Coordinate, Consolidate, Collaborate and Contribute.

What are the 3 C's of logistics? ›

Partner Portal, a cloud-based vendor management solution, can help an organization implement the three C's - communication, collaboration, and change effectively and eventually synchronize the supply chain operation.

What are the 4 major types of logistics? ›

The four types of logistics are inbound logistics, outbound logistics, reverse logistics, and third-party logistics (3PL) or fourth-party logistics (4PL).

What are the 4 major logistic functions? ›

The four major logistics functions are inventory management, transportation management, order processing, and warehouse management.

What are the 4 P's of logistics? ›

Product, Price, Place and Promotion. The perfect product must provide value for the customer. customer what they want, not what we think they want.

What are the 4 R's of logistics? ›

These '4 Rs' are - Responsiveness, Reliability, Resilience - and - Relationships. The key is Agility – a professional's ability to respond in quickest time with the greatest possible flexibility.
