Spain and Chile: MAPKs are key signaling mechanisms for detoxification in Macroalgae
The role of the MAPK signaling pathway in U. compressa under chronic copper stress was investigated by studying the expression of selected genes using RT-qPCR performed on the MIC.
Germany: DNA methylation determines TNF- α dependent regulation of ACE expression in human endothelial cells
Role of DNA methylation in the TNF-α dependent regulation of ACE expression was studied using RT-qPCR on MIC qPCR cycler.
South Korea: Modular Chip for Bacterial DNA Extraction
A modular chip was developed to simplify and reduce the cost of bacterial DNA extraction. The chip demonstrated high efficiency and reproducibility with similar performance to conventional methods. It can potentially be used for Point-of-Care testing.
Italy: Infrapatellar Fat Pad stem cells exert incomplete protective activity from OA inflammation
The study employed techniques, such as gene expression performed on the MIC, to determine the structural and functional characterization of osteoarthritic infrapatellar fat pad stem cells and their role in osteoarthritic inflammation.
South Korea: Sonic Hedgehog protein promotes hair-related gene expression
The effect of overexpression of Shh protein on hair follicle growth was investigated using quantitative qPCR on the Mic Real-Time Cycler.
USA: Functional conservation of RecQ helicase BLM between humans and Drosophila melanogaster
The extent of function conservation of RecQ helicases was investigated using quantitative qPCR on the Mic Real-Time Cycler.
Australia: A propidium monoazide–qPCR (PMA-qPCR) method for detection of viable Ascaris ova in wastewater
A propidium monoazide–qPCR (PMA-qPCR) method was validated using the Mic qPCR cycler for detecting viable Ascaris ova in wastewater
Poland: qPCR for the detection of Legionella spp. and E. Coli in hot tap water systems
In this study, L. spp., L. pneumophila, and E. coli bacteria were quantified from total DNA extracts of hot tap water samples using the MIC qPCR platform with TaqMan probes. The obtained results prove the presence of these bacteria in hot tap water installations in the majority of the examined buildings.
Finland: Molecular point-of-care testing for rapid diagnosis of common colds occurring in elite athletes
Molecular point-of-care testing (POCT) consists of a multiplex qPCR for rapid diagnosis of the aetiological agent causing the common cold. It allows for effective treatment and enhance timely isolation to decrease viral transmission.
