The catching-by-polymerization (CBP) oligodeoxynucleotide (oligo or ODN) purification method has been demonstrated suitable for large-scale, parallel, and long oligo purification. The authenticity of the oligos has been verified via DNA sequencing, and gene construction and expression. A remaining obstacle to the practical utility of the CBP method is affordable polymerizable tagging phosphoramidites (PTPs) that are needed for the method.

Background: Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have increased insulin resistance (IR). The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a marker of IR and is associated with the prognosis of patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the TyG index and the risk of death in patients on MHD.

Background: Oral microbiome has been associated with various cancers, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but its role in cancer treatment and prognosis remains largely unknown. This study aims to address the dynamic changes in oral microbiome following cancer treatment and their prognostic implications in NPC patients.
Patients And Methods: Unstimulated whole saliva samples were collected from 23 NPC patients before and after treatment, with an average of 2.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to global health, with its spread intricately linked across human, animal, and environmental sectors. Revealing the antimicrobial resistance gene (ARG) flow among the One Health sectors is essential for better control of antimicrobial resistance.
Results: In this study, we investigated regional ARG transmission among humans, food, and the environment in Dengfeng, Henan Province, China by combining large-scale metagenomic sequencing with culturing of resistant bacterial isolates in 592 samples.

Background: FFPE tissue samples are commonly used in biomedical research and are a valuable source for next-generation sequencing in oncology, however, extracting RNA from these samples can be difficult the quantity and quality achieved can impact the downstream analysis. This study compared the effectiveness of seven different commercially available RNA extraction kits specifically designed for use with FFPE samples in terms of the quantity and quality of RNA recovered.
Methods: This study used 9 samples of FFPE tissue from three different types of tissue (Tonsil, Appendix and lymph node of B-cell lymphoma) to evaluate RNA extraction methods.
