Arsenite-resistance protein 2 (Ars2) is an important nuclear protein involved in various RNA metabolisms in animals and plants, but no Ars2 ortholog has been studied in filamentous fungi.Although it is an essential gene in most model eukaryotes, FgARS2 null mutants were viable in the plant pathogenic fungus Fusarium graminearum.The deletion of FgAR
Central serous chorioretinopathy: Treatment
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is a pachychoroid spectrum disease characterized by serous detachment of the neurosensory retina with subretinal fluid in young and middle-aged adults.The pathogenesis of CSC is not yet fully understood.However, it is considered a multifactorial disease that is strongly associated with choroidal dysfunction or
Study on the comparison of key issues of Codex Commission on Food Additives(CCFA) and corresponding food additive management in China
Objective To compare the key issues discussed in the recent meetings of the Codex Commission on Food Additives(CCFA) with the relevant standards in China, and to analyze the rationality, practicability and existing problems of the standard management in China.Methods To collect the CCFA discussion Recycle-Install on food category 01.1 revision of t
Multi-particle three-dimensional coordinate estimation in real-time optical manipulation
We have previously shown how stereoscopic images can be obtained in our three-dimensional optical micromanipulation system [J.S.Dam et al., Opt.Express 16, 7244 (2008)].Here, we present an extension and application of this principle to automatically gather the three-dimensional coordinates for all trapped particles with high tracking range and high
Nonlinear Programming-Based Robot Motion Planning for Automatic Gait Measurement of a Passing Pedestrian in Corridors
Patrol robots in hospital wards are expected not only to ensure the safety of their movements, but also to perform gait measurement as part of their monitoring functions.In this study, we present a system that enables a patrol robot to perform a 5-meter walk test (5mWT) on passing pedestrians in a corridor.The pedestrian’s position and ASTRA
