Several methods exist for genotyping class II DLA gene polymorphisms in the dog. The most accurate method is sequence-based typing, which involves direct sequencing of polymerase chain reaction products. However, this method is expensive and unsuitable for large-scale studies. Recently, reference strand-mediated conformation analysis (RSCA) has been shown to be effective for characterizing majo...

A coronary artery and the accompanying vein were ligated temporarily for 30, 60 and 120 minutes in 39 cats. By labelling the blood with the fluorescent dye acridine orange, the intravital blood supply of the myocardium was investigated 5 minutes to 6 hours after release of the ligature. The region supplied by the temporarily ligated coronary artery (RSCA) was demonstrated by postmortal perfusio...

The ability of Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus [GAS]) to respond to changes in environmental conditions is essential for this gram-positive organism to successfully cause disease in its human host. The two-component system CovRS controls expression of about 15% of the GAS genome either directly or indirectly. In most operons studied, CovR acts as a repressor. We previously linked ...

This report describes the application of reference strand-mediated conformational analysis (RSCA), a novel DNA typing technique, for the identification of clinically significant fungal pathogens. RSCA is a heteroduplex-based conformational method which relies on detecting differences in the DNA conformation of heteroduplexes generated in this study by the annealing of different fungal 18S rRNA ...

While middleware technology has been successfully utilized in the enterprise computing domain, its adoption in commercial real-time and embedded systems is slow due to their extra non-functional requirements such as real-time guarantee, resource limitation, and fault-tolerance. In this chapter, we present a reference middleware architecture called the robot software communications architecture ...
