International Journal of Geophysics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 In summer of 2015 we had completed a geophysical survey complemented by borehole drilling near the right‐bank slope of the Rogun Dam construction site, Tajikistan. These data were first processed and then compiled within a 3D geomodel. The present paper describes the geophysical results and the 3D geomodel generated for an ancient mass movement located

Synthetic plant virology for nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine
WIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, Volume 9, Issue 4, July/August 2017., 2017 Plant viral structures frequently used in nanobiotechnology—CPMV (a) and TMV (b). Nanotechnology is a rapidly expanding field seeking to utilize nano‐scale structures for a wide range of applications. Biologically derived nanostructures, such as viruses and virus‐like particles (VLPs), provide excellent platforms for functionalization due to their ...

Plant‐Based Vaccines: Production and Challenges
Journal of Botany, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 Plant‐based vaccine technologies involve the integration of the desired genes encoding the antigen protein for specific disease into the genome of plant tissues by various methods. Agrobacterium‐mediated gene transfer and transformation via genetically modified plant virus are the common methods that have been used to produce effective vaccines ...

Farming of Plant‐Based Veterinary Vaccines and Their Applications for Disease Prevention in Animals
Advances in Virology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Plants have been studied for the production of pharmaceutical compounds for more than two decades now. Ever since the plant‐made poultry vaccine against Newcastle disease virus made a breakthrough and went all the way to obtain regulatory approval, research to use plants for expression and delivery of vaccine proteins for animals was intensified ...
