A REVIEW OF POTENTIAL USE OF AMAZONIAN OILS IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANOGELS FOR COSMETIC APPLICATION


Mining non-model genomic libraries for microsatellites: BAC versus EST libraries and the generation of allelic richness

Abstract Background Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are tandemly repeated sequence motifs common in genomic nucleotide sequence that often harbor significant variation in repeat number.Frequently used as molecular markers, SSRs are increasingly identified via in silico approaches.Two common classes of genomic resources that can be mined are bacteria

Visualisation of sentinel lymph node with indium-based near infrared emitting Quantum Dots in a murine metastatic breast cancer model.

Due to its non-invasiveness, high temporal resolution and lower cost, fluorescence imaging is an interesting alternative to the current method (blue dye and radiocolloid) of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in breast cancer.Near-infrared (NIR) emitting cadmium-based Quantum Dots (QDs) could be used for this purpose; however, their wide application
