Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Genotoxic Activity of Para-nitrophenol in Higher Plant Using Arbitrarily Primed- polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR)Mohamed R. EnanParanitrophenol is a common toxic environmental pollutant; the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the DNA fingerprinting by AP-PCR assay to detect the DNA damage in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) exposed to different concentrations of paranitrophenol (4.0-720 nM). The changes occurring in the fingerprint patterns were likely to be the result of paranitrophenol-induced DNA damage. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEarly Diagnosis of Breast Cancer using Molecular, Biochemical and Pathological MarkersSalah El-Din El-Assal, Adel A. El-Tarras, Samir M. Abd-allaProblem statement: Laboratory diagnosis of breast cancer in most of the hospitals has traditionally been performed using cell culture and the direct hormone receptor assay, which are money and time consuming. Approach: This study was performed in order to direct the attention toward increasing the efficiency of early diagnosis in clinical laboratories at the western region of KSA and Egypt … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMorphological Variability and Races of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris Associated with Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) CropsRosa Marina Arvayo-Ortiz, Martin Esqueda, Evelia Acedo-Felix et al.Abstract: Problem statement: Mexico is the third largest producer and exporter of chickpea (Cicer arietinum), with the states of Sinaloa and Sonora accounting for 70 and 20% of Mexico’s production, respectively. The most damaging disease affecting this species is caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. Ciceris (FOC), which causes losses of up to 60% in Sonora. The objective of this study … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,853 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetection and Localization of Anti and Pro-apoptotic mRNA Genes in Human Colorectal Cancer Using in situ RT-PCRMohd. Nazil Salleh, Boo Siaw Shi, Wan Khairuzzaman Wan Ramli et al.Problem statement: Recent studies using conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction have shown that anti-apoptotic (Cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2 and Nuclear Factor-κB, NF-κB) and proapoptotic mRNA (Bax and Bad) are involved in the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to localize the expression of anti and pro-apoptotic mRNA genes using Reverse Transcription in situ Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT in situ … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction for Determining Copy Numbers of Transgenes in Lesquerella fendleriGrace Qianhong Chen, Jiann-Tsyh LinProblem statement: In transgenic plants, the number of transgene copies could greatly influence the level of expression and genetic stability of the target gene, thus it is important to develop an efficient method for accurate estimation of transgene copies. The quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) technique is becoming more efficient nowadays to determine copy numbers of transgenes in transgenic plants, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHerpetic Viral RetinitisHidetaka NomaHuman Herpes Virus (HHV) is a DNA virus and is the most important viral pathogen causing intraocular inflammation. HHV is classified into types 1-8. Among these types, HHV-1, HHV-2, HHV-3 Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) and HHV-5 Cytomegalovirus (CMV) are known to cause herpetic viral retinitis, including acute retinal necrosis and CMV retinitis.
