MULTIPLEX PCR ASSAY FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF EIGHT ANOPHELES SPECIES BELONGING TO THE HYRCANUS, BARBIROSTRIS AND LINDESAYI GROUPS

Multiplex PCR assay for the identification of eight Anopheles species belonging to the Hyrcanus, Barbirostris and Lindesayi groups

Abstract Background Genus Anopheles mosquitoes are the primary vectors of human malaria, which is a serious threat to public health worldwide.To reduce the spread of malaria and identify the malaria infection rates in mosquitoes, accurate species identification is needed.Malaria re-emerged in 1993 in the Republic of Korea (ROK), with numbers peakin

Genomic evaluation of feed efficiency component traits in Duroc pigs using 80K, 650K and whole-genome sequence variants

Abstract Background Increasing marker density was proposed to have potential to improve the accuracy of genomic prediction for quantitative traits; whole-sequence data is expected to give the best accuracy of prediction, since all causal mutations that underlie a trait are expected to be included.However, in cattle and chicken, this assumption is n

Effectiveness and Safety of Heparinized Saline versus Normal Saline in Maintaining Patency of Peripheral Intravenous Locks in Neonates at a Tertiary Care Hospital

Introduction: Heparinized saline is usually used as a regular flush solution to prevent occlusion of peripheral intravenous locks in neonates but the risks PNAE (National School Feeding Program) and Its Events of Expansive Learnings at Municipal Level associated with the use of heparin cannot be ignored in these patients.Aim: To assess and compare
