Glutathione conjugates of the mercapturic acid pathway and guanine adduct as biomarkers of exposure to CEES, a sulfur mustard analog [PDF]
Sulfur mustard (SM), a chemical warfare agent, is a strong alkylating compound that readily reacts with numerous biomolecules. The goal of the present work was to define and validate new biomarkers of exposure to SM that could be easily accessible in urine or plasma. Because investigations using SM are prohibited by the Organization for the Prohibition

Influence of explant size, heat treatment, and variety on garlic (Allium sativum L) meristematic tissue growth [PDF]
Garlic (Allium sativum L) is one of genus Allium sp which propagated vegetatively. In vegetative propagation, virus is one of the major diseases. However, it has been approved that OYDV (Onion Yellow Dwarf Virus) can be eliminated through unconventional ...

Tissue culture of oil palm : finding the balance between mass propagation and somaclonal variation [PDF]
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is typically propagated in vitro by indirect somatic embryogenesis, a process in which somatic cells of an explant of choice are, via an intermediate phase of callus growth, induced to differentiate into somatic ...

Dissecting and Culturing Animal Cap Explants [PDF]
The animal cap explant is a simple but adaptable tool available to developmental biologists. The use of animal cap explants in demonstrating the presence of mesoderm-inducting activity in the Xenopus embryo vegetal pole is one of many elegant examples of their worth. Animal caps respond to a range of growth factors (e.g., Wnts, FGF, TGF-β), making them

Isolating human dermal fibroblasts using serial explant culture.
Background The purpose of this study was to introduce an applicable culture technique to isolate human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs); which could also contribute to research, clinical practices, as well as tissue engineering. Methods Samples from the human
