However there are few reliable sampling tools for measuring the habitat preference and host choice of mosquito vectors; with almost none suitable for sampling recently blood-fed, resting mosquitoes. This study evaluated the use of two mosquito traps: the resting bucket (RB) and sticky resting ...
We also evaluated for the presence of diabetes by identifying patients with a history or clinical diagnosis of diabetes, or evidence of any of the following: blood sugar > 7 mmol/L or > 126 mg/dL on two or more fasting plasma glucose tests; blood sugar > 200 mg/dL on ...
Since palatine and lingual tonsil tissue can be obtained in pairs it was possible, in the majority of cases, to set aside an intact sample for confirmatory testing if required. In one instance a sample was reactive by Western blot. However, the pattern of reactivity was not typical for that...
Since malaria parasites were first discovered in the blood of humans in 1880 by Charles Laveran, malaria has remained a significant global health challenge [1]. About 300 to 500 million people are infected with malaria every year but ultimately, 1 to 3 million people worldwide die from ...
The DEGs associated with fructosyltransferase genes where mapped majorly to the blood group and Lewis antigen biosynthesis pathways (Supplementary Table S4). A representative pathway image of the cellular process from the Reactome database—“Blood group system biosynthesis”, highlighted using the gene ...
