Transcriptome analysis ofDrosophila melanogasterlaboratory strains of different geographical origin after long‐term laboratory maintenance

Bacteroides species: maintenance of laboratory strains.

A medium composed of blood agar base (40 g/liter), yeast extract (5 g/liter), and cysteine hydrochloride (0.05 g/liter), completely filling screw-cap tubes (13 by 100 mm), can keep Bacteroides species alive for at least 10 months without refrigeration.

Genotyping of Francisella Tularensis Strains Isolated from Different Geographical Regions

Genetic clustering of Borna disease virus natural animal isolates, laboratory and vaccine strains strongly reflects their regional geographical origin.

The aim of this study was to gain more detailed insights into the genetic evolution and variability of Borna disease virus (BDV). Phylogenetic analyses were performed on field viruses originating from naturally infected animals, the BDV vaccine strain 'Dessau', four widely used laboratory strains and the novel BDV subtype No/98. Four regions of the BDV genome were analysed: the complete p40, p1...

Molecular analysis of seven Lactobacillus strains isolated from human origin in West of Mazandaran.

Background and Aims: Colorectal cancer is considered to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Anti-cancer properties of probiotic lactic acid bacteria are considerable for treatment of cancers such as colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular characterization of probiotic bacterial isolates from collected stool specimens in west of Mazandara...

Whole transcriptome expression analysis and comparison of two different strains of Plasmodium falciparum using RNA-Seq

The emergence and distribution of drug resistance in malaria are serious public health concerns in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. However, the molecular mechanism of drug resistance remains unclear. In the present study, we performed a high-throughput RNA-Seq to identify and characterize the differentially expressed genes between the chloroquine (CQ) sensitive (3D7) and resistan...
