SNPs have the potential to play a useful role in human identification testing. Small PCR amplicon sizes associated with SNP typing technologies make SNPs attractive for typing degraded DNA or other low copy number situations. SNP markers can be useful in
Single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNP) are the most frequent form of DNA sequence variation in the human genome and are becoming increasingly useful as genetic markers for genome mapping studies, medical diagnostics, and human identity testing. The primer

Graft failure in coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs) utilizing the saphenous vein is significantly higher than in those utilizing the internal mammary artery (IMA) or the radial artery (RA). While a number of studies have described this phenomenon
It is widely held that determination of increased levels of serum autoantibodies can play an important role in the diagnosis and, in some cases, management of many autoimmune diseases. It is also widely held that such testing is fraught with problems

2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyG) and 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyA), are formed abundantly in DNA of cultured cells or tissues exposed to ionizing radiation or to other free radical-generating systems. We show here that FapyG

Treatments that obdurate dentin tubules have been used for reducing dentin hypersensitivity. This study was to determine the effect of a treatment with a slurry of micron sized calcium phosphate on the hydraulic conductance (Lp) of etched dentin discs in
DNA has become a major target for clinical laboratory testing over the past 5 years, and RNA testing is emerging for infectious disease and gene expression (1). To normalize laboratory results across different technology platforms as well as between

Federal agencies, academia and industries have invested heavily in the development of structural and biothermodynamics data. However, the data are still largely distributed over several public and private archives leading to issues of inadequate
The Symposium on Metrology and Standards for Cell Signaling: Impact on Tissue Engineering, was held at the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) on October 14-15, 2003. The purpose of the symposium, which was co-sponsored by NIST and ASTM
