VISUALISATION OF SENTINEL LYMPH NODE WITH INDIUM-BASED NEAR INFRARED EMITTING QUANTUM DOTS IN A MURINE METASTATIC BREAST CANCER MODEL.

Visualisation of sentinel lymph node with indium-based near infrared emitting Quantum Dots in a murine metastatic breast cancer model.

Due to its non-invasiveness, high temporal resolution and lower cost, fluorescence imaging is an interesting alternative to the current method (blue dye and radiocolloid) of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in breast cancer.Near-infrared (NIR) emitting cadmium-based Quantum Dots (QDs) could be used for this purpose; however, their wide application

Identification and Functional Characterization of a Microtubule-Associated Protein, GhCLASP2, From Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Cytoplasmic linker-associated proteins (CLASPs) are microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) involved in regulation of dynamics of microtubules (MTs) that play an important role in plant growth and development.In this study, we identified cotton CLASP genes and investigated the function of GhCLASP2.GhCLASP2 was mainly expressed in stem and developing

A Novel Median Dendritic Neuron Model for Prediction

Dendritic neuron model (DNM) that utilizes a single dendritic neuron to emulate the information processing in human brains has been successfully applied to classification, approximation, and prediction fields.However, it is still a challenging task to improve the performance for forecasting the time series with outliers.A time series is a collectio
