RACE - Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends02:35

RACE - Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends

7.3K
Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends, or RACE, is one of the most effective methods to obtain a full-length cDNA from an mRNA sequence between a known internal region to the unknown sequence at the 5’ or 3’ end. The unknown region is cloned in the cDNA by a gene-specific primer that binds the known end, and a hybrid primer that attaches a predefined anchor sequence to the unknown end of the cDNA. The sequence in between is amplified by PCR with an anchor primer and a gene-specific...

Ready Mixed Concrete01:26

Ready Mixed Concrete

378
Ready-mixed concrete, also known as pre-mixed concrete, is prepared in a centralized plant and then transported in trucks to construction sites where it is ready for placement. This type of concrete is categorized into central-mixed, truck-mixed (or transit-mixed), and shrink-mixed. Central-mixed concrete is entirely prepared at a plant and moved to the site in agitator trucks that rotate at a speed of 2 to 6 rpm. Truck-mixed concrete, on the other hand, has the ingredients batched at the plant...

Isothermal Processes01:21

Isothermal Processes

5.0K
A thermodynamic process that occurs at constant temperature is called an isothermal process. Heat slowly flows into the system or out of the system to maintain thermal equilibrium. Processes involving phase changes like water evaporation into steam or freezing water into ice at a constant temperature are examples of Isothermal Processes.
An ideal gas can also undergo isothermal expansion or compression.
For example, consider 1 mole of an ideal gas inside an isolated cylinder at initial volume V...

EDTA: Auxiliary Complexing Reagents01:26

EDTA: Auxiliary Complexing Reagents

1.4K
EDTA titrations are usually carried out in highly basic conditions, where the fully deprotonated form of EDTA, Y4−, actively complexes with the free metal ions in the solution. Several metal ions precipitate as hydrous oxide (hydroxides, oxides, or oxyhydroxides) under these conditions, lowering the concentration of free metal ions in the solution. For this reason, auxiliary complexing agents or ligands such as ammonia, tartrate, citrate, or triethanolamine are used in EDTA titrations to...

Feedback Loops01:01

Feedback Loops

64.7K
In most cases, excessive hormone production is prevented by negative feedback—a loop that starts with a stimulus inducing the release of a particular substance, like a hormone, to maintain a certain level before triggering a signal that results in a decrease in further release of the hormone.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Diagnostics
  • Molecular Biology
  • Parasitology

Background:

  • Traditional loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays require cold chain storage, limiting their use in resource-limited settings.
  • Knowlesi malaria diagnosis is crucial, especially in endemic areas with limited diagnostic infrastructure.
  • Developing stable, easy-to-use diagnostic tools is essential for effective disease management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a room temperature-stable, dried-format loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for detecting knowlesi malaria.
  • To assess the performance of the dehydrated LAMP assay compared to a reference method.
  • To provide a user-friendly diagnostic tool for resource-limited settings.

Main Methods:

  • A dehydrated, colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was developed.
  • The assay utilizes visual color changes (yellow for positive, pink for negative) for result interpretation without specialized equipment.
  • The performance was evaluated using 75 clinical blood samples from Malaysia, with nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as the reference method.

Main Results:

  • The developed dehydrated LAMP assay demonstrated 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity when compared to nested PCR.
  • Reagents for the dehydrated LAMP assay are stable at room temperature for up to 15 days.
  • The assay provides rapid results through observable color changes.

Conclusions:

  • The room temperature-stable, dried-format LAMP assay is a highly sensitive and specific tool for detecting knowlesi malaria.
  • This assay eliminates the need for a cold chain, making it suitable for resource-limited and remote areas.
  • The developed diagnostic tool has the potential to improve malaria control efforts in endemic regions.
