Here, we describe a protocol for a colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for The methodology involves the preparation of small lysates by using the enzyme lysostaphin to degrade the peptidoglycan layer. These lysates are prepared using a small patch of bacteria grown on LB agar plates, and the lysates can subsequently be used for PCR analyses.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a detection method widely used in pathogen detection and clinical diagnosis. Nevertheless, it is highly constrained by thermal stability, catalytic activity, and resistance to inhibitors of Bst DNA polymerase. In this study, a novel DNA polymerase was characterized from Clostridium thermocellum, exhibiting potential in LAMP detection.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor, and has a low survival rate and a poor prognosis. Intensive studies of pathogenic mechanisms are essential for exploring therapeutic targets for GBM. In this study, the roles played by interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15), HECT, RCC1-containing protein 5 (HERC5), and SERPINE1 mRNA binding protein 1 (SERBP1) in regulating GBM cell stemness were investigated.

This study introduces an innovative on-site diagnostic method for rapidly detecting the / complex (SBSEC), crucial for livestock health and food safety. Through a comprehensive genomic analysis of 206 genomes, this study identified genetic markers that improved classification and addressed misclassifications, particularly in genomes labeled and . These markers were integrated into a portable quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) that can detect SBSEC species with high sensitivity (down to 10 or 10 colony-forming units/mL).
