Comparative study of Sulina and Sfântu Gheorghe seaside flora [PDF]
Scientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute, 2007 The seaside flora of Sulina and Sfântu Gheorghe localities was investigated in 2006. In the vegetation periods, a total of 316 plant specimens were identified. At the end of the study we determined that the species belonging to 192 genera and 64 families.

LDAcoop: Integrating non‐linear population dynamics into the analysis of clonogenic growth in vitro
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Limiting dilution assays (LDAs) quantify clonogenic growth by seeding serial dilutions of cells and scoring wells for colony formation. The fraction of negative wells is plotted against cells seeded and analyzed using the non‐linear modeling of LDAcoop.
