Although numerous studies have revealed new knowledge on the mechanism through which these compounds interfere with various hormone receptors, it is still a very challenging task to comprehensively evaluate the endocrine disrupting potential of all existing chemicals and their mixtures by pure <i>in vitro</i> or <i>in vivo</i> approaches. Machine learning offers a unique advantage in the rapid evaluation of chemical toxicity through learning the underlying patterns in the experimental biological activity data. Motivated by this, we train and test ANN classifiers for modeling the activity of estrogen receptor-α agonists and antagonists at the single-cell level by using high throughput/high content microscopy descriptors. Our framework preprocesses the experimental data by cleaning, scaling, and feature engineering where only the middle 50% of the values from each sample with detectable receptor-DNA binding is considered in the dataset. Principal component analysis is also used to minimize the effects of experimental noise in modeling where these projected features are used in classification model building.

Quantitative models for predicting these effects are essential for enabling centralized control strategies of lubricant and glidant feeding and blending in direct compression tableting lines. This work presents the development of mechanistic reduced order models to capture the effects of lubricant (magnesium stearate) and glidant (silica) on CQAs and Critical Process Parameters (CPPs). A Latin Hypercube experimental campaign with thirty different mixing conditions of silica with MCC (Avicel PH200) and APAP (Acetaminophen) was carried out using a Natoli NP400 tablet press and a SOTAX AT4 tablet tester. Experiments show that the tensile strength and blend bulk density are significantly affected by the mixing conditions of silica. Similarly, adding magnesium stearate (MgSt) changes the bulk density of the blend, compaction force required to form a tablet, and tensile strength of the tablet, depending on the lubrication conditions (Mehrotra et al., 2007; Razavi et al., 2018).</p>","PeriodicalId":72950,"journal":{"name":"ESCAPE.

Traditionally, decision-making strategies for such problems follow a sequential approach where longer-term decisions are made first and implemented at lower levels, accordingly. However, there are shared variables across different decision layers of the supply chain that are dictating the feasibility and optimality of the overall supply chain performance. Multi-level programming offers a holistic approach that explicitly accounts for this inherent hierarchy and interconnectivity between supply chain elements, however, requires more rigorous solution strategies as they are strongly NP-hard. In this work, we use the DOMINO framework, a data-driven optimization algorithm initially developed to solve single-leader single-follower bi-level mixed-integer optimization problems, and further develop it to address integrated planning and scheduling formulations with multiple follower lower-level problems, which has not received extensive attention in the open literature. By sampling for the production targets over a pre-specified planning horizon, DOMINO deterministically solves the scheduling problem at each planning period per sample, while accounting for the total cost of planning, inventories, and demand satisfaction. This input-output data is then passed onto a data-driven optimizer to recover a guaranteed feasible, near-optimal solution to the integrated planning and scheduling problem.

In this study, a QbC approach was demonstrated for a commercial scale tablet press in a continuous direct compaction process. First, the necessary understanding of the compressibility of a model formulation was obtained under QbD guidance using a pilot scale tablet press, Natoli BLP-16. Second, a data reconciliation strategy was used to reconcile the tablet weight measurement based on this understanding on a commercial scale tablet press, Natoli NP-400. Parameter estimation to monitor and update the material property variance was also considered. Third, a hierarchical three-level control strategy, which addressed the fast process dynamics of the commercial scale tablet press was designed. The strategy consisted of the Level 0 built-in machine control, Level 1 decoupled Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control loops for tablet weight, pre-compression force, main compression force, and production rate control, and Level 2 data reconciliation of sensor measurements.
