Deepening of In Silico Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 Detection RT-qPCR Assays in the Context of New Variants
Keersmaecker Source: Genes, Volume 12, Issue 4 (2021) Keywords: SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; variants; detection; RT-qPCR; in silico specificity evaluation; bioinformatics tool; WGS data; mismatches; primers and probes ...
Residing in urban areas with higher green space is associated with lower mortality risk: A census-based cohort study with ten years of follow-up
used to probe into cause-specific mortality (non-accidental, respiratory, COPD, cardiovascular, ischemic heart disease (IHD), and cerebrovascular). Models were adjusted for several sociodemographic ...
Use of Whole Genome Sequencing Data for a First in Silico Specificity Evaluation of the RT-qPCR Assays Used for SARS-CoV-2 Detection.
(consisting of a total of 30 primers and probe sets) used for SARS-CoV-2 detection and the impact of the virus’ genetic evolution on four of them. The exclusivity of these methods was also assessed using the ...
Multivalent binding of herpesvirus to living cells is tightly regulated during infection.
introduce a new method to force-probe multivalent attachment directly on living cells, and we show, for the first time, direct evidence of a new mechanism by which a herpesvirus surface glycoprotein acts as ...
The enucleated eye test: A comparison of the use of ultrasonic and optic pachometers.
correlation (r = 0.906; P < 0.0005) was also found between corneal swelling and opacity. The use of the ultrasonic pachometer requires the contact of the ultrasonic probe tip with the corneal epithelium. ...
