This method has been widely used in basic laboratory studies to detect apoptosis quantitatively (Nicoletti et al, 1991; Darzynkiewicz et al, 1992; Iwadate et al, 1997).
The Reproductive Health Research Team (RHRT) included individuals engaged in basic laboratory research, epidemiology, risk communication, and public health and collaborated with other NORA teams engaged in exposure assessment, control technologies, and intervention effectiveness.
Because early identification of influenza (H5) is crucial for the containment of the disease, this novel assay can provide an efficient option for the preliminary molecular detection of highly pathogenic influenza (H5) viruses in basic laboratory or clinical settings.
Undifferentiated febrile illnesses (UFIs) are a common clinical problem in south Asia. 1, 2 Defined as a fever without a focus of infection on initial physical examination or in basic laboratory tests, UFIs represent a considerable burden of disease with diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
Whereas the topic areas have been well aligned with Ugandan priority conditions, most of the research is clinic-based, with gaps in basic laboratory research as well as operational research to address implementation issues, and with relatively little cross-disciplinary research.
These new criteria must include not just statistically significant overall survival rates of a few weeks/months or selecting few genetic markers, but must also consider findings in basic laboratory tests, histopathology, biochemistry, imaging, quality of the patient's life post-treatment as well as psychosomatic areas.
Smear microscopy can be performed in basic laboratories.
Hence simple visual detection facilitates use of the assay in basic laboratories and in fish farms.
Thus, viability microscopy may be considered an appropriate-technology test for use in basic laboratories in resource-constrained settings.
Applications based predominantly in basic laboratories in the United States will not be considered responsive to the RFA.
