Thioflavin T as a fluorescence probe for biosensing applications

TL;DR: Thioflavin T, a water-soluble fluorescence probe and the conventional dye for the detection of amyloid fibrils has recently been demonstrated to recognize and bind nucleic acids and helps in the formation of G-quadruplex (G4) structure.

Label-Free G-Quadruplex Aptamer Fluorescence Assay for Ochratoxin A Using a Thioflavin T Probe.

TL;DR: This method has a high specificity for OTA relative to Ochratoxin B (23%) and Aflatoxin B1 (13%) and has been validated using a sample of red wine supplemented with a range of OTA concentrations with recoveries of 96.5% to 107%.

The causes and prevention of cancer.

TL;DR: Epidemiological evidence indicates that avoidance of smoking, increased consumption of fruits and vegetables, and control of infections will have a major effect on reducing rates of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphorylation of nucleic acid by an enzyme from T4 bacteriophage-infected Escherichia coli

TL;DR: The activating effects of PLP and Fe+++ on these earlier preparations remain unexplained but were partially due to stabilizing effects on the enzyme under the assay conditions then in use, and hence provide no evidence for a role ofPLP in action of the enzyme.

Thioflavin T as an Efficient Inducer and Selective Fluorescent Sensor for the Human Telomeric G-Quadruplex DNA

TL;DR: The application of a water-soluble fluorogenic dye, Thioflavin T (ThT), in a dual role of exclusively inducing quadruplex folding in the 22AG human telomeric DNA, both in the presence and absence of Tris buffer/salt, is demonstrated.

Evolution of Water Lifting Devices (Pumps) over the Centuries Worldwide

TL;DR: A timeline of the historical development of water pumps worldwide through the last 5500 years of the history of mankind is presented in this article, followed by a chronological order with emphasis on the major civilizations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of neural networks for precipitation analysis in a humid region to detect drought and wet year alarms

TL;DR: Performance of the networks was not satisfactory because the number of neurons in the hidden layer and the roles of training, validation and testing phases were lacking flexibility and change, but improvement of network accuracy was found.
