Site-to-site Reproducibility in Conducted Immunity Tests on Pc-based Data Acquisition Systems

This paper deals with electromagnetic susceptibility of PC-based data acquisition systems (DASs) when subjected to electromagnetic disturbances considered in the EMC applicable standards. A suitable measurement procedure that allows the DAS susceptibility to be highlighted is proposed. Furthermore, a preliminary analysis of the measurement reproducibility is carried out with the aim of investig...

Alternative Splicing in Plant Immunity

Alternative splicing (AS) occurs widely in plants and can provide the main source of transcriptome and proteome diversity in an organism. AS functions in a range of physiological processes, including plant disease resistance, but its biological roles and functional mechanisms remain poorly understood. Many plant disease resistance (R) genes undergo AS, and several R genes require alternatively ...

Alternative tests make the grade.

Toxicity testing is absolutely necessary for assessing the safety of substances in food, air, and water, in the workplace and at home. Although there are several tried-and-true toxicity assays, the search is always on for methods that can even better predict toxic effects. As scientific understanding of the effects of environmental toxicants grows, new tests are needed to evaluate previously un...

Complimentary and Alternative Allergy Tests

This article reviews the common tests employed by complementary and alternative medical practitioners to diagnose allergies and intolerances. These tests include VEGA, applied kinesiology, hair analysis, auriculo-cardiac test, stool and live blood analysis, leucocytotoxic tests and IgG ELISA tests. None of these tests has proven to be as accurate as specific IgE measurement in allergy diagnosis...
