It was found that 96-well filter plates provided contamination-free, rapid processing of samples for fiber-based enzyme assays using ToF-SIMS.
Human crews would provide biological contamination and disturb the ultra-high stability required of typical scientific instruments in space.Al Barrett Santa Monica, CaliforniaSIR - It is beyond question that many of our space flight programmes have been economically dubious.
The assessment of actual groundwater quality using the GQI maps is an interesting exercise at regional scales to provide overall contamination scenario.
With its cost-effective design and portability, this sensitive and specific colorimetric strips could potentially be used for providing air contamination information.
The present study provides several contamination and ecological risk indices for selected metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn) in tea (Camellia sinensis L.; cv. S.3A/3) growing soil influenced by lower to higher doses of inorganic and organic amendments.
Moreover, this method provides less contamination and lower cost, both of which are benefits for routine biological experiments.
The disinfections of heat-sensitive food surfaces with plasma streamers open up an alternative novel route for the development of advanced technologies for the elimination of fungal contamination, provided that an ideal gaseous compound together with a proper electric power supply is employed.
Therefore, further studies are needed to determine if the level of reduction in contamination provided by the Tru-D device translates to reduced rates of infection.
We have previously reported that filtering Illumina mRNA sequences for genomic contamination provided high quality transcripts that were useful for annotating a new rhesus genome [ 7].
Finally, homology searches with a reference set of vertically transmitted genes revealed moderate contamination and also provided an estimate of the contamination level (compare C. angaria, C. remanei, and other Caenorhabditis species in Table S1).
Cell lines were regularly tested for the presence of contamination using multiplex cell contamination test provided by the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) core facility.
