Follicular lymphomas comprise almost two thirds of the US adult non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) and are the most common malignancy of B-lineage lymphocytes. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) protocols have been developed to detect the t(14;18) translocation, which juxtaposes the bcl-2 proto-oncogene to the Ig heavy-chain (IgH) gene in 85% of follicular lymphomas and monoclonal rearrangements of the...

Abstract In metal–air batteries, the integrated solid‐state cathode is considered a promising design because it can solve problem of high interfacial resistance conventional cathodes. However, solid discharge products cannot be efficiently decomposed in an cathode, resulting batteries that are unable to operate for long periods time. Herein, (Gel‐Tempo cathode) sodium–air (SABs) capable promoti...

OBJECTIVE To assess whether men who have sex with men (MSM) prefer a gel or a suppository as a delivery vehicle for a rectal microbicide. METHODS 77 HIV-negative MSM with a recent history of inconsistent condom use during receptive anal intercourse (RAI) who acknowledged being at risk of contracting HIV were enrolled in a randomised, crossover acceptability trial. They compared 35 ml placebo ...

Hydrocolloid gel particles of micron and sub-micron size are particularly attractive for use in many applications in the food, agricultural, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries, due to their biocompatibility, perception as "natural" materials, and soft-solid texture. Industrial applications for such particles include uses as texturizers in confectionery and cosmetic products, slow-release e...

Red clay contains solid aluminosilicate has been shown to be reactive in the presence of an alkaline activator. The addition coal fly ash and lime improvements their mechanical physical properties geopolymer products. FTIR analysis SEM images product have formation gel geopolymeric product. maximum compressive strength products GP-RFL was achieved 15.92 N/mm2 having water absorption 10.47 % bul...

The room temperature oxidation of betulin by Cr(VI) compounds in aqueous acetone on solid supports such as alumina, zeolites and silica gel has been studied. The oxidation on alumina support leaded to a single product--betulonic acid--in quantitative yield. One hundred percent selective oxidation during 30 min of betulin up to betulonic aldehyde was determined when silica gel support was used. ...

and Implications The ELISA assay is a more rapid and sensitive method for PCR product detection than conventional gel electrophoresis. The PCR/ELISA allows for the processing of numerous samples, is relatively inexpensive and eliminates the need for electrophoretic and photographic equipment as well as the use of potential carcinogens such as ethidium bromide which is utilized in the gel electr...

A high-throughput DNA sequencing method that generated high quality data was developed. A frame fashioned from a standard agarose gel combined with 0.1%-0.2% low-melting point (LMP) agarose gel was used to isolate the PCR product of interest. Collected PCR products were centrifuged without any reagents and the supernatants were directly used for a sequencing reaction. This method is simple and ...

Abbreviations: PTMs=post-translational modifi cations; PPIs=protein-protein interactions; SDS-PAGE= sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; 2D-PAGE=two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; MS=mass spectrometry; ESI=electrospray ionization; MALDI=Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization; ESI-MS=electrospray ionization mass spectrometry; MALDI-MS=MALDI mass spectr...

A cationic protein that stimulates DNA synthesis in human cultured cells was isolated from human platelets by ion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic chromatography, gel chromatography, and gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The electrophoretic behavior of biologically active or radioiodinated and reduced growth factor indicated that the native protein (approximately 30,000 daltons...
