For DFM, 20 µL of the supernatant were transferred into a new, clean slide and a cover slip was placed over it. The preparation was examined under a dark field microscope (Carl Zeiss, Germany). The ...

ABSTRACT: Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. This pathology is linked to various genes whose interaction with the environment ...

Abstract: SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) genotyping is the determination of genetic variations of SNPs between members of a species. In many laboratories, PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain ...

We describe a modified single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing method based on the restriction fragment length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction (RFLP-PCR). This is a simple, economical ...

Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is one of the most frequently performed clinical procedures and therapies to improve tissue oxygen delivery in hospitalized patients worldwide. Generally, the ...

Background: Non−small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the major type of lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are novel markers and targets in cancer therapy and can act as both tumor suppressors and oncogenes ...

The usual diagnostic tests may simply be too sensitive and too slow to contain the spread of the virus. By Apoorva Mandavilli Some of the nation’s leading public health experts are raising a new ...

Abstract: The polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique is often used in laboratories and many basic research studies of complex genetic diseases ...

To the best of our knowledge, no study has evaluated the role of MTHFR in pancreatic cancer in a U.S. population. We hypothesized that polymorphisms of the MTHFR gene that result in reduced enzyme ...
