Viruses have been used to deliver two types of site-specific nucleases into cells for targeted gene editing.

Reducing the incidence of malaria has been a public health priority for nearly a century. New technologies and associated vector control strategies play an important role in the prospect of sustained reductions. The development of the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system has generated new possibilities for the use of gene-drive constructs to reduce or alter vector populations to reduce malaria incid...

The ineffectiveness of current strategies for chemical control of mosquito vectors raises the need for developing novel approaches. Thus, we carried out a literature review of strategies for genetic control of mosquito populations based on the sterile insect technique. One of these strategies consists of releasing radiation-sterilized males into the population; another, of integrating a dominan...

Given the potential for genetic modification (GM) to impact human health, via food and health mechanisms, a greater understanding of the social acceptance of GM is necessary to facilitate improved health outcomes. This analysis sought to quantify U.S. residents' acceptance of GM across five potential uses (grain production, fruit or vegetable production, livestock production, human medicine, an...

BBu çalışmada ortaokul öğrencilerinin fen tabanlı girişimcilik düzeyleri ile eleştirel düşünme eğilimleri arasında çeşitli değişkenler açısından fark olup olmadığının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla korelasyonel araştırma modeli kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri 2020-2021 eğitim-öğretim yılında Uşak il merkezinde bulunan bir ortaokulda öğrenim görmekte olan 522 öğrencisinden toplanmıştı...

A high molecular polymer solution with viscoelasticity has the effect of reducing frictional drag, which is quite practical for energy saving. Effective simulations viscoelastic flows in a pipeline Reynolds number realized by incorporating constitutive equation into k−ε−v′2¯−f turbulence model. The Finitely Extensive Nonlinear Elastic Peterlin (FENE-P) model employed characterizing viscoelastic...
