From Sample to Answer: Innovations in sample processing and CRISPR-based diagnostics for enhanced clinical translation and field deployment by Arizti Sanz, Jon

“…We also designed and tested multiplexed diagnostic assays for the detection and differentiation of three tick-borne pathogens in clinical samples. Finally, given the inadequacy of existing sample processing methods – and their importance to nucleic acid test deployment – we developed a high throughput experimental workflow to analyze the effects of chemical reagents on diagnostic assay performance and nuclease activity in patient samples using a commercially available microfluidic platform. …”

Boronic acid and nitrofuranyl derivatives as potential therapeutics by Dey, AL

“…‘Rule of 5’, there has been extensive research on lead-like compounds other than those in the realm of small molecule drug-likeness. With this borne in mind Chapter 1, Antimicrobial Peptides – a New Chasm, introduces the concept of protein-protein interactions (PPIs), which could pave the way for development of promising therapeutic agents of various properties such as pacidamycin and muraymycin which are all peptide-based antibiotics that are concerned with PPIs. …”
