molecular diagnosis of tuberculosis: a new primer design

Molecular Diagnosis of Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading causes of adult death in the Asia-Pacific Region, including Indonesia. As an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), TB remains a major public health issue especially in developing nations due to the lack of adequate diagnostic testing facilities. Diagnosis of TB has entered an era of molecular detection that provides faster and mor...

Gene assembling: a new approach in molecular diagnosis of hereditary breast cancer

 Abstract Background: Many disease susceptibility genes are large and consist of many exons in which point mutations are scattered throughout. Scanning each exon individually represents a tedious task which can be time consuming and expensive. There has been increasing demand for rapid and accurate methods for full scanning of unknown point mutations in large multi-exon genes. Gene Assembling i...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Design of a New Nano Hinge Molecular Machine Based on Nitrogen Inversion: Computational Investigation

 Ab initio calculations were employed to investigate nitrogen inversion as a configuration change that can supply an infinitely useful switchable control mechanism for some <span style="letter-sp...

Molecular Simulation – A Primer

Quantum chemistry allows us to calculate molecular properties with arbitrary accuracy: potential surface, geometry, moments, spectra, etc. However, there are properties which do not depend on a single molecule alone but can only be defined for an ensemble of many molecules: melting point, diffusion coefficient, density, for example. “Many molecules” can refer to a few dozen molecules in a molec...
