background and aims: the aim of this study was cloning and expression of rabies virus glycoprotein by a eukaryotic expression plasmid pcdna3.1(+) in bsr cell line. this construct might be used for a potential dna vaccine. materials and methods: glycoprotein gene was synthesized and cloned into pbluescript vector and then sub cloned into eukaryotic expression vector (pcdna3.1(+)). after verifica...

Background and Aims: Accurate and rapid diagnosis is necessary for effective control and prevention of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). In present study, was evaluated real time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) assay along with diagnostic routine methods for the detection of all seven serotypes of FMD virus (FMDV), namely O, C, A, SAT1, 2, 3 and Asia 1 in biological sample...

The purpose of the present experiments was to examine dose-response relationships for induction of hepatic mRNA following a single administration of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) to rats. The induction of cytochrome P450-1A1 (CYP1A1) mRNA is compared to other "dioxin-responsive" genes including UDP-glucuronosyltransferase I, plasminogen activator inhibitor 2, and transforming growt...

Background and objective:Millions of people in developing countries lose their lives due to acute respiratory infections, such as Influenza A & B and Adeno viruses. Given the importance of rapid identification of the virus, in this study the researchers attempted to design a method that enables detection of influenza A, B, and adenoviruses, quickly and simultaneously. ...
