AN IMMUNOMAGNETIC CELL SEPARATION SYSTEM BASED ON A RETROVIRAL VECTOR CONTAINING A CHIMERIC, RECOMBINANT HUMAN-MURINE CD4 GENE

An immunomagnetic cell separation system based on a retroviral vector containing a chimeric, recombinant human-murine CD4 gene

Primary B- and T-lymphocytes and neoplastic cells of B- and T-cell origin are particularly hard to transfect with plasmids.Thus, functional and molecular studies in immunology and oncohematology require selection of cells after plasmid biblio xl transduction, assuring obtaining homogeneous cell populations expressing plasmid-delivered molecules.The

Breeding for improvement of functional traits in dairy cattle

Selection programs for increasing milk production per cow have been very successful over time.This success has been partially due to the consideration of few other traits.Unfortunately, many traits related to costs of production and cattle functionality (i.e., “functional traits”), such as fertility and health, are antagonistically corr
