dna typing is a new method with important applications in forensic medicine. in the present study, we evaluated application of dna typing in iran. loci hum lpl, hum tpox, hum f13, hum vw 31a, hum th01 and hum fes/fps of dna short tandem repeats were studied. to determine sensitivity of the test, 85 mother-child couples (1020 chromosomes) that were referred to dna section of legal medicine organ...

a tandem agv configuration connects all cells of a manufacturing area by means of non-overlapping, sin-gle-vehicle closed loops. each loop has at least one additional p/d station, provided as an interface between adjacent loops. this study describes the development of three tabu search algorithms for the design of tandem agv systems. the first algorithm was developed based on the basic definiti...

a clinical presentation of a metabolic disorder, often first seen in infants who present with poor feeding, vomiting, tachypnea, acidosis, hyperammonemia, ketosis, ketonuria, irritability, and convulsions or hypotonia and lethargy, findings that are otherwise suggestive of neonatal sepsis diseases with oa isovaleric and propionic acidemias, maple syrup urine disease, medium chain acyl dehydroge...

background: the variable numbers of tandem-repeat (vntr) alleles at the phenylalanine hydroxylase (pah) gene have been used in carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis in phenylketonuria families. this study was carried out to analyze vntr alleles at the pah gene in iranian azeri turkish population. methods: in this study, 200 alleles from general population were studied by pcr. results: the fr...

objective: classic cell culture and karyotyping is routinely used for prenatal detection of different chromosomal abnormalities. molecular cytogenetic techniques have also recently been developed and used for this purpose. quantitative florescence pcr using short tandem repeat (str) markers has more potential for high throughput diagnosis. marker heterozygosity in short tandem repeats (str) is ...

introduction: the secondary genetic changes other than the pml-rara fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. chromosomal alterations and mutation of flt3 tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (aml). however, the prognostic significance of flt3 mutations in acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl) is not firmly established....

strip tearing during cold rolling process has always been considered among the main concerns for steel companies. several works have been done so far regarding the examination of the issue. in this paper, experimental data from cold rolling tandem mill is used for detecting strip tearing. sensors are placed across the cold rolling tandem mill. they receive information on parameters (such as ang...

background :according to numerous studies, fms-like tyrosine kinase 3, internal tandem duplication, and the d835 mutation are associated with a poor prognostic clinical outcome in acute myeloid leukemia patients. detection of the fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 mutation in patients who present with normal karyotype acute myeloid leukemia helps in both the understanding of the disease and the treatme...

background: classification of molar gestation into complete hydatidiform mole (chm) and partial hydatidiform mole (phm) is done according to clinical, ultrasonographic, histologic and genetic criteria. however, making a distinction between chm and phm using histologic criteria alone may be difficult and several studies have shown that misclassifications are frequent, even for experienced pathol...
