The increasing prevalence of electronic cigarette use, particularly among younger demographics, has prompted urgent investigation into its long-term health implications. While combustible cigarette smoke (CCS) is a well-established carcinogen, the oncogenic potential of electronic cigarette vapor (ECV) remains underexplored. A recent study led by Dr. Moghaddam et al. at The University of ...
In cancer research, zebrafish models have advantages over traditional cell culture assays because a wider range of phenotypes can be tested. Zebrafish and mammals share common molecular pathways for tumor progression. ...
Why do we care about Microthrix filaments? Usually, Microthrix parvicella is associated with foaming problems in wastewater treatment. Sometimes we have observed high levels of what looks like M. parvicella in a sample of mixed liquor, and though the plant may be experiencing bulking, they do not have any foam. Even more confusing is when this occurs in summer, since M. parvicella is ...
The cells can be used as model systems in phenotypic and drug screening, high content analysis, target identification, drug development, toxicology testing, gene editing studies, reporter assays. ...
Craniosynostosis, caused by the premature fusion of one or more of the cranial sutures, can be classified into nonsyndromic or syndromic and by which sutures are affected. It affects 1 in 2,000‐2,500 children [Boulet et al., 2008]. Several craniosynostosis syndromes are associated with malformations of the digits, including craniosynostosis Philadelphia type (CP), a rare form of syndromic ...
The CASMATZ uses Monte Carlo methods to characterize the implications of phenotypic variability, environmental variability, and uncertainty associated with atrazine toxicity data in estimating the potential impacts of time‐varying atrazine exposures on population biomass and community structure. ...
The target microbes remain viable in the positive kit for at least 10 days and further bacterial isolates from BWTK were characterized phenotypically, molecular identified by sequencing of 16SrRNA gene and antibiotic sensitivity was determined. ...
Purple kernel streaking (PKS) in white food corn (Zea mays L.) is characterized by the accumulation of purple-pigmented streaks (anthocyanins) in an otherwise colorless pericarp. ...
We evaluated genetic diversity by phenotypic characterization and by comparing nuclear and cytoplasmic microsatellites in 301 genotypes of an INRA soybean collection with those of 31 European breeding lines and 17 ancestors from American cultivars (representing 83% of the North America diversity). ...
The objective of this study was to develop a data-driven method to group breeding programs likely to be compatible for germplasm exchange and to use phenotypic characterization data of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) from breeding programs to illustrate this method. ...
