The monoclonal antibody solution hybridization assay is a novel enzyme immunoassay for detection of RNA with a biotinylated DNA probe. To increase the sensitivity of this test, a fluorescent substrate and an enzymatic amplification cycling system were compared with a conventional colorigenic substrate for alkaline phosphatase. The fluorescent, cycling, and colorigenic substrates detected, respe...

We attempted to apply fluorescence resonance energy transfer technology to nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (FRET-NASBA) on the platform of the LightCycler system to detect Aspergillus species. Primers and probes for the Aspergillus 18S rRNA were newly designed to avoid overlapping with homologous sequences of human 18s rRNA. NASBA using molecular beacon (MB) showed non-specific result...

Background: One of the important and influential contexts on quality life is gender. The aim this study was to compare elderly men women.

Leukemic blasts from patients with acute nonlymphoid leukemia were examined for the presence of Ig, receptors for IgGFc, and for their capacity to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) against chicken red blood cells (RBC) coated with IgG and spontaneous cell-mediated cytotoxicity (SCMC) against cells of K562 cell line. Leukemic blasts from acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) pa...

Biological degradation of terrestrially derived macromolecules including lignin and cellulose has been shown to produce a large number of environmentally relevant phenolic compounds. It has demonstrated that extracellular superoxide (O2 ) is produced by heterotrophic bacteria that are common in lakes, soil, hydrothermal vents, marine sediments, estuaries and oceans. Rates of superoxide producti...

conclusions we confirm that in amol city and surrounding areas, the prevalence of true hcv infection is 0.05%, which is lower than that previously reported from iran. results the mean age of participants was 42.70 ± 17.10 years. of these participants, 57.2% (n = 3483) were male. anti-hcv antibody was positive in 12 individuals from which five were riba positive. three of these subjects were pcr...

This paper utilizes a Swedish alcohol policy experiment conducted in the late 1960s to identify the impact of prenatal alcohol exposure on educational attainments and labor market outcomes. The experiment started in November 1967 and was prematurely discontinued in July 1968 due to a sharp increase in alcohol consumption in the experimental regions, particularly among youths. Using a difference...

In Burkina Faso, the levels of plasma homocysteine (Hcy) are lower and the methionine loading tests suggest a more effective Hcy metabolism [1,2]. We found a relevant difference in the allele frequencies of C677T: T 7.7% in the young and 3.3% in old subjects respectively (see Table 1). Frequencies of C677T genotypes in old and young individuals were in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). The diff...
