lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs02:39

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

10.0K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Nursing Code of Ethics01:29

Nursing Code of Ethics

4.8K
The Nursing Code of Ethics sets the ethical benchmark for the profession, and guides nurses in ethical analysis and decision making at the societal, organizational, and clinical levels. The code encompasses showing compassion and respect for the patient, their families, and communities in all circumstances while committing to providing patient-centered care. In addition, the code states that nurses must advocate for the patient by defending a cause or recommendation to protect their rights,...

Plant Cells and Tissues02:01

Plant Cells and Tissues

66.0K
Plant tissues are collections of similar cells performing related functions. Different plant tissues will have their own specialized roles and can be combined with other tissues to form organs such as flowers, fruit, stem, and leaves. Two major types of plant tissue include meristematic and permanent tissue.

Bone Cells and Tissue01:30

Bone Cells and Tissue

8.6K
Bones contain a relatively small number of cells entrenched in a matrix of organic and inorganic components. Although bone cells compose only a small amount of the bone volume, they are crucial to its function. Four types of cells are found within the bone tissue— osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteogenic cells, and osteoclasts.
Osteoblasts and Osteocytes
The osteoblast is the bone cell responsible for forming new bone tissue. It is found in the growing portions of bone, including the...

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues01:18

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues

3.4K
Lymphoid cells and tissues are integral to the immune system, which is crucial in maintaining our body's defense against harmful pathogens. They form the building blocks of lymphoid organs, which include the spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes.
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Area of Science:

  • Medical device traceability
  • Biotechnology product safety
  • Regulatory compliance in healthcare

Background:

  • Unique product identification is essential for traceability.
  • Germany has utilized Eurocode for blood product encoding since 1998.
  • EU Directives mandate unique identification and traceability for tissues and cells.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To adapt the existing Eurocode system for the Single European Code (SEC) requirements.
  • To ensure seamless integration of SEC standards into current traceability systems.
  • To facilitate compliance with EU directives for tissues and cells.

Main Methods:

  • Leveraging existing Eurocode data elements.
  • Identifying the missing data element (tissue establishment number) from the EU Coding Platform.
  • Adapting current software and labeling solutions.

Main Results:

  • Most Eurocode data elements are compatible with the SEC structure.
  • The tissue establishment number is the only required addition for SEC compliance.
  • Existing Eurocode-based systems can be readily upgraded to SEC standards.

Conclusions:

  • The Eurocode system provides a strong foundation for implementing the Single European Code.
  • Upgrading to SEC is feasible with minimal modifications to existing infrastructure.
  • Enhanced traceability for tissues and cells can be achieved efficiently.
