To determine the requirements for viral proteins exiting the phloem, transgenic plants expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the Potato virus X (PVX) triple gene block (TGB)p1 and coat protein (CP) genes were prepared.The fused genes were transgenically expressed from the companion Antenna Products cell (CC)-specific Commelina yellow
New achievements in vaccine development
Vaccines have made a major contribution to global public health, including the eradication of one deadly disease, small pox, and the near eradication of another, poliomyelitis.In the future, vaccination will be expected to eliminate the remaining childhood infectious diseases.Development of new, safe and effective adjuvants is also an important par
Radical Scavenging and Antioxidant Activity of Anthyllis Vulneraria Leaves and Flowers
The main targets of this work were to determine the phenolic content of Anthyllis vulneraria (A.vulneraria) leaves and flowers and to evaluate their antioxidant Coin Bank activity.Total polyphenols and flavonoid content (TPC and TFC, respectively) were determined.Antioxidant capacity was evaluated by the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP), th
When predictions are used to allocate scarce health care resources: three considerations for models in the era of Covid-19
Abstract Alternators Background The need for life-saving interventions such as mechanical ventilation may threaten to outstrip resources during the Covid-19 pandemic.Allocation of these resources to those most likely to benefit can be supported by clinical prediction models.The ethical and practical considerations relevant to predictions supporting
