Viruses are certain organisms (debated whether they are living or not) that consist entirely of a certain DNA or RNA base that is surrounded by a protein casing, often with specific binding proteins surrounding the shell.Answer and Explanation: ...
Stable-isotope probing (SIP) for use in microbial ecology was based on the premise that a physio- logically active subset of organisms within environ- mental samples, when offered substrates labelled with a stable isotope, would incorporate the heavier C- or N-source into cell components. The ...
First-, second- and third-line antibiotic consumption was 38%, 52% and 10%, respectively. Our hospital data showed a high rate of antibiotic prescription in all hospital areas, mainly broad-spectrum antibiotics. Regarding the ASP introduced in 2016, ITS analysis showed a change in the outcome...
such as texture and histogram analysis of voxels within the region of interest, can be used to classify stages of the disease process and correlate these features with clinical parameters, such as liver enzyme concentrations or virus titers. For instance, a method to quantify lung abnormalities in...
