The ability to determine nucleic acid sequences is one of the most important platforms for the detailed study of biological systems. Pyrosequencing technology is a relatively novel DNA sequencing ...

The possibility of using a new bioluminometric DNA sequencing technique, called pyrosequencing, for typing of human papillomaviruses (HPV) was investigated. A blinded pyrosequencing test was performed ...

The cost of reagents and supplies for each method was also calculated in our study, as explained in Materials and Methods. This was an approximate estimation and would vary depending upon the ...

Considering the various uses of pyrosequencing, in present article the technique is discussed in detail with elaborating its uses. Pyrosequencing technique is based on sequencing-by-synthesis ...

The epidermal growth factor receptor-targeted monoclonal antibody cetuximab (Erbitux) was recently introduced for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. Treatment response is dependent on ...

DNA methylation is a form of epigenetics in which gene expression is encouraged or inhibited by the addition of a methyl group on cytosines. It is highly implicated in development, cell ...

Multiple fields of microbiology rely on techniques of microbial identification, such as in food microbiology for detecting contaminants, and in microbial ecology to characterize biodiversity. Image ...

Department of Biology, University of Massachusetts Boston, Boston, MA, USA Cores in each plot were collected from the rooting zone of pure or nearly pure stands of the tall ecotype of Spartina ...
