Bluetongue (BT) is a vector-borne viral disease of multiple domestic and wild ruminants across the globe. The VP7 protein of bluetongue virus (BTV) is the major immune-dominant structural protein that is conserved across the BTV serotypes and therefore, targeted for the development of immuno-diagnostics for BT. In this study, full-length recombinant VP7 protein (rVP7) of BTV-1 was expressed in Trochoplusia ni derived insect cells (Tn5) using codon-optimized synthetic gene construct through baculovirus expression system.

The research advanced the Mf-EIT hardware through analogue discovery, component assessment, hardware integration, software creation, and data reconstruction utilizing Gauss-Newton and GREIT approaches. The breast cancer phantom consisted of a gelatin and sodium chloride solution.

This study is aimed at analyzing the meat content of cattle meatballs and detecting foreign objects using ultrasonography (USG), digital radiography (DR), and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Meatballs were produced using four different meat formulations (0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% meat) and three treatments (no preservative (control), borax, and formalin preservatives).

Ultrasonography is based on non-ionizing radiations without adverse biological effects. A set of electrodes was placed around the torso and a small alternating current (AC) was injected via two of the electrodes into the object.
