Molecular and genotyping techniques in diagnosis of Coxiella burnetii: An overview.

Although we live in the genomic era, the accessibility of the complete genome sequence of Coxiella burnetii, the etiological agent of Q fever, has increased knowledge in the field of genomic diversity of this agent However, it is still somewhat of a "question" microorganism. The epidemiology of Q fever is intricate due to its global distribution, repository and vector variety, as well as absence of surveys defining the dynamic interaction among these factors. Moreover, C.

Adding yeast extract to culture medium enhances replication of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus in chicken embryo kidney cells.

Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), an avian coronavirus, can be isolated and cultured in tracheal organ cultures (TOCs), embryonated eggs and cell cultures, the first two of which are commonly used for viral isolation. Previous studies have suggested that foetal bovine serum (FBS) can inhibit coronavirus replication in cell cultures. In this study, the replication of IBV in chicken embryo kidney (CEK) cell cultures and the Leghorn hepatocellular carcinoma (LMH) cell line was assessed using two different cell culture media containing FBS or yeast extract (YE) and two different IBV strains.

Transformer-Based Fire Detection in Videos.

Fire detection in videos forms a valuable feature in surveillance systems, as its utilization can prevent hazardous situations. The combination of an accurate and fast model is necessary for the effective confrontation of this significant task. In this work, a transformer-based network for the detection of fire in videos is proposed.
