Obtaining DNA of quality and in sufficient quantity to carry out genetic studies in children is a real challenge. In those studies that require high amounts of DNA, the traditional method that is usually used is the extraction of blood. Over the last years, looking for a less invasive alternative, there are more and…
Anti Pd-1 And Pd-L1 Antibodies And Immunotherapy
In recent years, anti-PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies have been postulated as the great promise in the field of cancer immunotherapy . There are more and more clinical trials with monoclonal antibodies against these targets that are being carried out, with results that, far from being the definitive therapy, are encouraging to advance in the treatment…
A rapid bioassay for single bacterial cell quantitation using bioconjugated nanoparticles.
The rapid and delicate dedication of pathogenic micro organism is extraordinarily necessary in biotechnology, medical prognosis, and the present battle towards bioterrorism. Current strategies both lack ultrasensitivity or take a very long time for evaluation. Here, we report a bioconjugated nanoparticle-based bioassay for in situ pathogen quantification all the way down to single…
IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics information system.
The international ImMunoGeneTics information system (IMGT) (http://imgt.cines.fr), created in 1989, by the Laboratoire d’ImmunoGenetique Moleculaire LIGM (Universite Montpellier II and CNRS) at Montpellier, France, is a high-quality built-in data useful resource specializing in the immunoglobulins (IGs), T cell receptors (TRs), main histocompatibility advanced (MHC) of human and different vertebrates, and…
Determining the filtration efficiency of half-face medical protection mask (N99) against viral aerosol.
Hospital-based outbreaks of extreme acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) have as soon as once more highlighted the vulnerability of healthcare employees (HCWs). Use of private respiratory protecting tools was the important methodology utilized by HCWs to keep away from nosocomial transmission. This paper describes the expertise used to guage the filtration…
