Unexpected mould diversity in clinical isolates from French Guiana and associated identification difficulties.
emerging pathogens. We evaluated microscopy and mass spectrometry to identify mold clinical isolates. With 39% of unidentified isolates, a region-specific mass spectrum database would improve the diagnosis ...
Identifying implementation gaps and priorities for the Singapore government to improve food environment policies: perspectives from a local expert panel.
objective of the current study was to characterise and evaluate the Singapore government’s policies to improve the food environment and to identify and prioritise concrete actions. DESIGN: The Healthy Food ...
New QSAR models to predict chromosome damaging potential based on the in vivo micronucleus test
py was applied on the training set to automatically extract sets of rules by generating and selecting substructures based on their prediction performance whereas the test set was used to evaluate model ...
QuilA-Adjuvanted T. gondii Lysate Antigens Trigger Robust Antibody and IFNγ+ T Cell Responses in Pigs Leading to Reduction in Parasite DNA in Tissues Upon Challenge InfectionImage
scarce, vaccination of meat producing animals may prevent T. gondii transmission to humans. Here, we evaluated the elicited immune responses and the efficacy of a potential vaccine candidate, generated by ...
