Abstract Screening, testing and contact tracing plays a pivotal role in control of the COVID-19 pandemic. To enable this it is necessary to increase the testing capacity. This study compared a SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen test (RAT) and RT-PCR in 842 asymptomatic individuals from Tarapacá, Chile. A sensitivity of 69.86%, specificity of 99.61%, PPV of 94.44% and NPP of 97.22% with Ct values (Ct > 27) that were significantly higher among individuals with false-negative RAT were reported. These results support the … Continue reading “SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen test compared with real-time RT-PCR”
Binding of pDNA to cDNA primarily based on Cit-AgNPs

Lately, a model new Resistance to Phytophthorainfestans (Rpi) gene, Rpi-amr1, was cloned from a wild Solanum species, Solanumamericanum. Identification of the corresponding acknowledged effector (Avirulence or Avr) genes from P. infestans is important to elucidating their naturally occurring sequence variation, which in flip informs the potential sturdiness of the cognate late … Continue reading “Binding of pDNA to cDNA primarily based on Cit-AgNPs “
