A genetic map of non-Mandelian genes in Chlamydomonas.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

Published: March 1970

A group of eight non-Mendelian genes have been shown by recombination analysis to be linked into a linear structure or chromosome. Similar genetic maps of gene order and relative distances between genes have been constructed by two methods, one based on additivity of recombination frequencies, the other on frequency of reciprocal recombination with a postulated attachment point. The data indicate that the progeny are diploid for this linkage group, and that the strands are distributed in a precisely oriented manner at mitosis. Evidence is discussed in support of the view that this linkage group is located in chloroplast DNA.

Background: Effective interventions to reduce drowning incidents require accurate and reliable data for scientific analysis. However, the lack of high-quality evidence and the variability in drowning terminology, definitions, and outcomes present significant challenges in assessing studies to inform drowning guidelines. Many drowning reports use inappropriate classifications for drowning incidents, which significantly contributes to the underreporting of drowning.

Improving UK data on avoidable perinatal brain injury: review of data dictionaries and consultation.

Pediatr Res

January 2025

THIS Institute (The Healthcare Improvement Studies Institute), University of Cambridge, Strangeways Research Laboratory, Cambridge, CB1 8RN, UK.

Background: High quality data is important to understanding epidemiology and supporting improvement efforts in perinatal brain injury. It is not clear which data items relevant to brain injury are captured across UK sources of routinely collected data, nor what needs to be done to ensure that those sources are fit for purpose in improving care.

Methods: We reviewed data dictionaries of four main UK perinatal data sources and consulted a multi-professional group (N = 27) with expertise in neonatal/maternity care, statistics, and clinical negligence.

N-nitrosamines are a class of compounds belonging to the "cohort of concern" and characterized by the linkage of a nitroso group (-N=O) to an amine functional group (-NR). Some of these compounds are mutagenic, genotoxic, and potentially carcinogenic agents in humans, which necessitates control at acceptable safe levels. The current work presents a comprehensive risk assessment and mitigation strategy for two complex diastereomeric nitrosamines as New Drug Substance Related Impurities (NDSRIs) for miglustat 65mg capsules.

Engineering biocompatible carbon dots nano-enzymes hydrogel for efficient antioxidative and anti-inflammatory treatment of dry eye disease.

Electronic address:

Dry eye disease (DED) is a complex and multifactorial ocular surface disease. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are of pivotal importance in the inflammatory processes and biological dysfunction associated with DED. In this study, an injectable hydrogel, designated as OHACDgel, was created by combining oxidized HA-containing aldehyde groups (OHA) and gelation (gel) via dynamic covalent linkages of the hydrazine bonds, is employed as the carrier, while polyethylene imine-functionalized carbon dots (PEI-CD) can form dynamic chemical bonds with the hydrogel, thus prolonging the retention time of the ocular.

Management of heterogeneous construction, renovation, and demolition (CRD) wood residues in Québec brings into light, a widespread topic under discussion related to their current disposal methods in landfills, that may lead to environmental concerns. With rising forfeitures from a legal standpoint, alternative treatment methods for CRD wood wastes are being explored. Thermochemical biomass conversion techniques can be employed to depolymerize low-quality end-of-life CRD wood and valorize it to bio-based products.
