Reactivation of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been reported in patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy or chemotherapy. We report a case of HBV reactivation in a patient negative for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), positive for hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc), and positive for hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs), who was undergoing chronic maintenance hemodialysis without immu...
Sample homogenization is an essential step for genomic DNA extraction, with multiple downstream applications in Molecular Biology. Genotyping hundreds or thousands of samples requires an automation of this homogenization step, and high throughput homogenizer equipment currently costs 7000 euros or more. We present an apparatus for homogenization of individual Drosophila adult flies in 96-well micr...
