Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences available for strains of the collection that had been previously deposited in the NCBI database, we performed an updated phylogenetic analysis with the current members of the phylum Planctomycetota. The analysed data can be regarded as a representative excerpt...
In an essay calledThe Optimistic Thought Experiment, Thiel advises us to build the modern equivalent of Noah’s ark, so we can survive the floods of Girardian evil. Thiel fears that due to technologies like nuclear weapons, humans are already capable of destroying the world. With modern techno...
His discovery of the reciprocal link between magnetism and electricity, electromagnetism, was published in 1820 in his four-page work “Experimenta circa effectum conflictus electrici in acum magneticam” [31]. In addition, he investigated the compressibility of liquids and...
, an average germ reduction of 70% could be detected in an experiment. The proportion of air treatment agent in the ambient air, which is adjusted by the method (1) according to the invention, is usually <10 ppb (parts per billion, volume base), preferably #100 ppt (vol.), more ...
When cell supernatant containing budded virus from this “rescue” experiment was used to infect a new monolayer of MDCK cells, CAT activity was also detected, suggesting that the RNA containing the recombinant CAT gene had been packaged into virus particles. These results demonstrate the successful...
Nor do they state, for example, whether the researcher developed an active infection, nor whether they developed symptoms, nor if they transmitted the recombinant virus to anyone else. Neither do they reveal what kind of recombinant virus was being used or the purpose of the experiment. ...
