Female sterilization, or tubal ligation, is rural India's most prevalent form of contraception. The paperwork surrounding this procedure provides an interesting lens through which to investigate the state, its institutions and their material conditions. production circulation uncover state as illegible unpredictable entity that materializes in people's everyday lives bureaucratically futile cer...

BACKGROUND Suitable experimental models of gallstone pancreatitis with systemic inflammation and mortality are limited. We developed a novel murine model of duct-ligation-induced acute pancreatitis associated with multiorgan dysfunction and severe mortality. METHODS Laparotomy was done on C57/BL6 mice followed by pancreatic duct (PD) ligation, bile duct (BD) ligation without PD ligation, or s...

Containment of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection is dependent on an efficient interferon gamma response. However, the earliest steps immune response initiation immediately following exposure to parasite have not been previously characterized in pigs. Murine and human myeloid cells produce large quantities interleukin (IL)-12 during early T. infection. We therefore examined IL-12 expression by p...

Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) is a widely used technique for detecting genomic structural variants. The technique is based on hybridization and ligation, followed by amplification of the ligation products. Therefore, ligation is considered a fundamental process that determines the feasibility and fidelity of MLPA. However, despite the widespread use of this technique, ...
