Improved spot morphology for printed glycan arrays.
Despite considerable success studying glycan-binding proteins using printed glycan arrays (PGAs), unambiguous quantitation of spot intensities by fluorescent readers remains a challenge. The main obstacles are the varying spot shape and size and in-spot fluorescence distribution caused by uneven drying of the printed drops. Two methods have been suggested for solving this problem: using polymer...
متن کاملLatest developments in foodborne pathogen risk assessment
Microbiological Risk Assessment (MRA) is a structured process for determining the public health risk associated with foodborne pathogens. In recent years, there has been a strong tendency in providing food safety decisions based upon quantitative assessment. Especially, variability and uncertainty inherent to biological processes have been integrated in food safety management through the use of...
متن کاملSugarBindDB, a resource of glycan-mediated host–pathogen interactions
The SugarBind Database (SugarBindDB) covers knowledge of glycan binding of human pathogen lectins and adhesins. It is a curated database; each glycan-protein binding pair is associated with at least one published reference. The core data element of SugarBindDB is a set of three inseparable components: the pathogenic agent, a lectin/adhesin and a glycan ligand. Each entity (agent, lectin or liga...
متن کاملGlycan arrays for analysis of influenza virus specificity
Approaches that improve upon the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of singlestrand antisense oligonucleotides are an active research topic. Antisense oligonucleotide phosphorothioates (ASOs) are highly protein bound. Therefore, it is likely that they traffic into and through cells via a protein to protein shuttling mechanism driven by binding affinity gradients.1 The ASO binding ev...
متن کاملRecent Developments in Biosensor Technologies for Pathogen Detection in Water
Contamination of drinking water with pathogenic agents is a serious threat to the population. The potential presence of bacteria, viruses and protozoa requires efficient and effective monitoring methods that allow the detection and quantification of these pathogens. Conventional methods of pathogen detection in water primarily rely on culturing, a pre-concentration procedure and some biochemica...
