A novel and quick method to study the drug resistance in reverse transcriptase (RT) of HIV
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), a retrovirus, was discovered independently by Luc Montagnier and Robert Gallo in 1983. As per the WHO report of 2015, globally, around 40 million people are infected with this virus. HIV is an
Annual Summit on Cell Therapy and Molecular Medicine. Chicago, USA. September 27-28, 2017
Conferenceseries welcomes you to attend the Annual Summit on Cell Therapy and Molecular Medicine during September 27 – 28 , 2017 at Chicago, USA. We cordially invite all the participants from all over the world who are interested in sharing their
What do African new settlers in New Zealand ‘know’ about HIV?
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the differences between objective and operational knowledges of HIV transmission, that is, between what people say they know, and what they put into practice in their lives. We are
Fullerene-containing networks via light induced crosslinking
During the last years, fullerenes have been widely studied in the field of optoelectronic materials due to their interesting electrical properties. Fullerene, also known as Buckminster fullerene, is a pure carbon molecule composed of 60 atoms of
Suicide prevention or business scam?
Suicide is a significant public health issue and is a leading cause of death globally. For each person who dies by suicide, numerous family members, friends and members of the wider community are affected. Effective interventions that
Farm animal production and human health
Human health is inextricably linked with farm animal welfare and industrial farm animal production. Data suggests that human health is negatively affected when animal welfare is compromised, an outcome that results from environmental degradation, the use of
In search of new natural antioxidants for treatment of Parkinson neurodegenerative disease
A lot of studies have demonstrated that oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson’s disease. Antioxidant therapy has been proposed for prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases for reducing oxidative damage caused by
Brain structure predicting functioning at a later stage in live in individuals at increased risk for psychosis
Psychosis is a severe mental disorder that is characterised by symptoms of hallucinations, delusions, confused and disturbed thoughts, and lack of insight and self-awareness. Most individuals who are at increased risk for developing psychosis do not develop
Discovery of Bag3-P209L signaling mechanism brings hope for therapeutic options currently in development
Myofibrillar myopathy (MFM) is a group of rare genetic disorders that cause both skeletal and cardiac muscle weakness. Mutations in the Bcl2-associated Athanogene 3 (Bag3) protein, highly expressed in striated muscle, are reported to cause a particularly
Characteristics of adolescents requesting emergency contraception
The proportion of pregnancies that are unintended in the United States remains high, particularly among adolescents. Postcoital contraception, using either the copper intrauterine device (IUD) or emergency contraception (EC) pills, is the only option for pregnancy prevention
Marine and estuarine decapod crustaceans from Ceará, northeast Brazil
The evaluation of world’s biodiversity has always been of major concern, especially when undertaking conservation measures or establishing protected areas. Species lists play an important role in this context, not only providing tools for conservation purposes, but
Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) infection empowers B lymphocytes for autoimmunity
The human body is under constant threat of foreign invaders (bacteria, viruses, parasites) that can cause infectious diseases. The reason why this often does not occur is the immune system, a complex collection of molecules and cells
Scientific procedures and possible alternative assays in GRAS determination
A food substance can be designated as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) based on the outcomes of scientific procedures or experience of common use in food. Data used for GRAS determination is provided by the Sponsor and
Gold subnano-structures on iron-oxide surface for catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide
Highly dispersed gold nanoparticles supported on transition metal oxides have been shown to catalyze important chemical reactions such as low – temperature oxidation of carbon monoxide ( CO ). Catalytic performance of gold / oxide system depends
Experience impacts elbow pitching mechanics more than age
As youth participation in organized baseball has grown in the United States, so has the occurrence of elbow pain and injuries. This increase is likely related to the development of the physes and increased throwing frequency and

DNA methylation markers in colorectal cancer state-of-the-art
Colorectal is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. There were over 1.3 million new colorectal cancer cases worldwide, of which approximately 50% died as a result of the disease in 2012. Like all cancers, CRC
Remote echography using motorized probe and tele operated echograph
Echography and Doppler are the first imaging modality which can be setup without huge and costly installation, but the examination has to be performed by a Medical Doctor specially trained for echography and Doppler (a Sonographer). Moreover
Ultrasound can help small particles penetrate into biofilms using a new oscillatory diffusion mechanism
Biofilms form when microorganisms, such as bacteria or algae, attach to a surface and surround themselves with a matrix of extracellular polymeric substance (or EPS). Biofilms are ubiquitous in nature and in a vast array of industrial
