A method for large quantity dsRNA production was developed since a small amount of dsRNA synthesized in vitro with commercial kits are used for small scale bioassay evaluations. Developing a large-scale production system for dsRNA is critical for practical RNAi application, especially for non-transgenic RNAi-based control. However, large-scale analysis or...
Vibrio cholerae, a Gram-negative bacterium, is the etiological agent of cholera. V.
cholerae shuttles between the human host and the aquatic reservoir, where it associates
with marine organisms such as copepods and vertebrate fish. The bacteria use the Type II
Secretion System (T2SS) to release proteins that facilitate V. cholerae...
Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy is a great tool not only to study fundamental physical processes such as many-body Coulomb interaction but also to develop ultrafast electronic devices. More specifically, intense THz fields interacting with semiconductors have exhibited strong nonlinear effect involving extreme carrier dynamics. In this experiment, intense THz radiation was...
