Risk Factors of Childhood and Maternal Anemia in India

The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Fungicide sprays on flowering plants may expose solitary bees to high concentrations of pollen-borne fungicide residues. Using laboratory-based experiments involving in vitro-reared bee larvae, this study investigates the interactive effects of consuming fungicide-treated pollen derived from host and non-host...

An accurate hemoglobin estimation method is lacking at the point of care and may hinder population-based programs for treating anemia. Therefore, we developed a point-of-care method based on pooled capillary blood and an auto-analyzer integrated into a custom software application to categorize the hemoglobin values into different grades of anemia.

Early development is dependent on maternally-inherited products, and the role of many of these products is currently unknown. Herein, we described a protocol that uses CRISPR-Cas9 to identify maternal-effect phenotypes in a single...

This video describes india ink inflation--a staining method--to quantify tumor nodules in tumor-bearing mouse lungs. After staining, the lungs are fixed in Fekete's solution to observe tumor nodules in the...

Here, we describe a protocol for generating maternal mutant that couples a stable zpc:cas9 knock-in line with Tol2-mediated delivery of sgRNA expression...
