Colony polymerase chain reaction of stably transfected Trypanosoma cruzi grown on solid medium [PDF]
Tools for the genetic manipulation of Trypanosoma cruzi are largely unavailable, although several vectors for transfection of epimastigotes and expression of foreign or recombinant genes have been developed. We have previously constructed several plasmid

Experimental study on population-based incremental learning algorithms for dynamic optimization problems [PDF]
Copyright @ Springer-Verlag 2005.Evolutionary algorithms have been widely used for stationary optimization problems. However, the environments of real world problems are often dynamic. This seriously challenges traditional evolutionary algorithms.

Genetic modification of baculovirus expression vectors
As a protein expression vector, the baculovirus demonstrates many advantages over other vectors. With the development of biotechnology, baculoviral vectors have been genetically modified to facilitate high level expression of heterologous proteins in both insect and mammalian cells.

Assessment of Genetic Shielding for Adenovirus Vectors [PDF]
Development of adenovirus (Ad) vectors in the clinical context has highlighted that vector efficacy may be limited by the host humoral response due to pre-existing titers of neutralizing antibodies against the vector itself in humans. Further, multiple dosing of Ad vectors based on serotype 5 would be limited.

The genetic basis of host preference and resting behavior in the major African malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis [PDF]
Malaria transmission is dependent on the propensity of Anopheles mosquitoes to bite humans (anthropophily) instead of other dead end hosts. Recent increases in the usage of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) in Africa have been associated ...

Genetics of Major Insect Vectors
Publisher Summary Vector-borne diseases are responsible for a substantial portion of the global disease. Control of insect vectors is often the best and sometimes the only way to protect the population from these destructive diseases. This chapter reviews vector genetics of three of the most important vector-borne diseases that have much to contribute

Geminiviruses and their application in biotechnology
Being a major class of single-stranded DNA viruses, geminiviruses are mostly studied due to their catastrophic infectious effect on crops. These DNA viruses are characteristic for their ability in quickly multiplying viral genetic materials without ...
