Occurrence and Multilocus Genotyping of in Yunnan Black Goats in China.

is an important zoonotic parasite which can parasitize in the intestines of humans and various animals. However, the information about the prevalence and genetic diversity of in goats in China is limited. It is yet to be known whether Yunnan black goats, a unique goat breed in subtropical Yunnan province, southwestern China, are infected with Thus, a total of 907 fecal samples were collected from Yunnan black goats in five regions in Yunnan province, to estimate the prevalence and genotypes of using a PCR-based approach.

Advances and Application of DNA-functionalized Nanoparticles.

DNA-functionalized nanoparticle (DfNP) technology, the integration of DNA with nanotechnology, has emerged over recent decades as a promising biofunctionalization tool in the light of biotechnological approaches. The development of DfNPs has exhibited significant potential for several biological and biomedical applications. In this review, we focus on the mechanism of a series of DNA-NP nanocomposites and highlight the superstructures of DNA-based NPs.

[Polymorphism and original analysis of mtDNA D-loop of three Leuciscus species in Xinjiang].

PCR-RFLP technique was employed to amplify about 827bp of mtDNA D-loop hypervariable region of Leuciscus baicalensis, L.merzbacheri and L.idus in Xinjiang.

[Divergence and systematical evolution of three Leuciscus species in Xinjiang based on mitochondrial DNA control region sequences].

Nucleotide sequence of fish mitochondria DNA (mtDNA) D-loop region from Leuciscus leuciscus baicalensis, L. merzbacheri, and L. idus in Xinjiang, China, were examined by sequencing 667 - 669 bp length of homological fragments in the D-loop from 24 individuals of the three fish species.
