The caption for Figure 5 reads: One-color SNV quantification. (A) Primers are designed with the single nucleotide variant at the 3′ end of the complementary region. Noncomplementary tails of varying lengths are then added to the 5′ end and amplified with a universal reverse primer. (B) 1:4 mixture of MUT/WT BRAF template amplified with mutant primers with the short tail and wild-type primers wi...

Bovine semen experimentally contaminated with Leptospira santarosai serovar Guaricura was submitted to the modified EMJH medium with 5-fluorouracil (300mg/L) and nalidixic acid (20mg/L), named as "selective medium" and using the serial dilution technique, in order to evaluate the percentage of recovery of the added microorganism. The selective EMJH medium was found with higher percentage of rec...

The Association of Official Analytical Chemists bacterial use-dilution test for evaluating liquid surface disinfectants was modified to determine the efficacy of three common environmental germicide compounds against representatives of four virus groups. Modifications were made to conform to the Environmental Protection Agency guidelines on virucidal testing procedures. Alterations included: th...

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) exhibits oncolysis in its natural form. This oncolytic (OV) has the potential to specifically infect, propagate, and lyse cancer cells while sparing normal cells. study was aimed screen for NDV strain isolated from poultry. A total of ten velogenic strains were propagated 10 day old embryonated SPF chicken eggs allantoic fluid these infected collected further study...

Microsoft Point to Point Encryption (MPPE) is a means of representing PPP packets in an encrypted form. MPPE uses the RSA RC4 algorithm to provide data confidentiality. The length of the session key to be used for initializing encryption tables can be negotiated. MPPE currently supports 40-bit, 56-bit and 128-bit session keys. MPPE session keys are changed frequently; the exact frequency depend...

We present an end-to-end approach to generalize the classical theory of R-D optimized mode selection for point-to-point video communication. We introduce a. notion of global distortion by taking into consideration of both the path characteristics and the receiver behavior, in addition to the source behavior. We derive, for the first time, a set of accurate global distortion metrics for any pack...

Comparison of end expiratory lung volume (EELV) measured by the helium dilution technique and the nitrogen washout/ washin method. (a) The EELV measured by the helium dilution as a function of the EELV measured by nitrogen washout/washin method (EELV helium dilution = -111.85 + 0.89 × EELV GE, r2 = 0.82, p < 0.00001). (b) The BlandAltman plot of the EELV measured with the nitrogen washout/washi...
