Benchmark data files were created to contain symptoms/signs for each new syndrome. Rules were encoded for new diagnoses. StrokeDx employs log...

Chicken IgY was used for the detection and quantification of peanut proteins by indirect competitive ELISA. The method was optimized by using a checker board approach to determine the optimal concentration of coating antigen, primary antibody and secondary antibody. Peanut protein could be detected in foods down to levels of 10 ppm. The effect of physical (heat treatment at 80 °C and 100 °C) an...

Streptomyces species are effective biocontrol agents toward many plant pathogens. These microorganisms well known for producing secondary metabolites, promoting growth and inducing defense mechanisms. In this study, the ability of tomato root-colonizing strains to trigger resistance against Rhizoctonia solani (J.G. Kühn) AG4 was investigated. For goal, we evaluated pattern LOXB PAL1 genes expre...
