Sliding Weather Instrument Fixed to Tether (SWIFT)

BACKGROUND Kite Popper Line Climber is a manually deployed and uncontrollable sail. Kite popper can travel up the kite line to a stopping point (or bridle point) where the line connects to the kite, then “pop” closed and slide back down the line. The user needs to thread the kite through the popper, open its sail, and watch as the...

Incorporation of the Horseradish Peroxidase Gene in a Viral Genome Provides a Rapid and Cost-effective in vitro Method to Determine the Antiviral Potential of Antibodies or Drugs

BACKGROUND In-vitro virus neutralization assays are an important step in determining potential in-vivo efficacy of vaccines or (synthetic) anti-viral antibodies. Most recent micro-neutralization assays are based on luciferase or fluorescence read-outs. Viruses of interest are modified by inserting genes encoding luciferase or fluorescent proteins....

Combining site-directed mutations and reconstitution with a locked chromophore analog converts photoactive yellow protein into a highly fluorescent protein tag

CONVERTION OF PHOTOACTIVE YELLOW PROTEIN INTO A HIGHLY FLUORESCENT PROTEIN TAG BACKGROUND Fluorescent protein tags, such as green fluorescent protein (GFP), exhibit fluorescence when viewed under ultraviolet light. Since these tags make it possible to 'see' metabolic interactions, attaching them to proteins, antibodies, and amino acids allows...

Estimation of the Age of Body Fluid Stains using RNA Degradation and a Novel qPCR Approach

A NEW METHOD AND KIT FOR ESTIMATION OF THE AGE OF BODY FLUID STAINS UTILIZING RNA DEGRADATION AND qPCR TECHNIQUES (OSU Ref # 2018-004) BACKGROUND Forensic laboratories frequently quantitate the amount of human genomic DNA recovered from evidentiary biological fluid samples. Additionally, forensic experts are often called into court to testify as...
