Summary: The objective of this protocol was to compare the Airway ScopeTM(AWS) and the Macintosh laryngoscope (ML) for their performance in tracheal intubations (TIs) performed by emergency medical technicians (EMTs) using mannequin models with liquids in the airway. Rice gruel and mock blood were used to fill the upper airways of mannequins to create mock vomit and hematemesis models, respectively. TIs were performed by certified EMTs after visualizing the glottis using an AWS with an 18-Fr suction catheter and a ML with an 18-Fr suction catheter. TIs with AWS and ML were performed in random order in a comparative crossover trial. The TI success rate was evaluated based on the following: (a) the time taken from laryngoscope insertion into the oral cavity to glottis visualization, tracheal tube passage through the glottis, until the initiation of ventilation and (b) the subjective level of difficulty, which was assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS).

Summary: A pelvic nerve array is custom designed for implantation onto the pelvic nerve of male rats. This device is used for long-term (recovery) experiments. The device can electrically stimulate the pelvic nerve as well as record electrically evoked or spontaneous neural activity. Previously, we have successfully implanted rats for 2 months with no reports of biological adverse complications or damage sustained to the array. The surgical procedure is performed under anesthesia and should incorporate all local requirements for standards of animal experimentation, including methods of anesthesia, surgical environment, and post-operative monitoring and care.

Summary: This is an optimised protocol for 16S library preparation of V3-V4 region for sequencing through Illumina MiSeq platform (2 x 300 bp V3 chemistry). This protocol uses Platinum™ SuperFi™ PCR Master Mix instead of 2x KAPA HiFi HotStart ReadyMix given in Illumina 16S protocol. This polymerase master mix has lower error rate than KAPA, making it more suitable for sequencing.

Summary: LooK SPOT COVID-19 antigen rapid test is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of nucleocapsid protein antigen from SARS-CoV-2 in nasal swabs from patients suspected of COVID-19 within the first seven (7) days of symptom onset. Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet the requirements to perform moderate complexity tests. This test is authorized for use at the Point of Care (POC), i.e., in a patient care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation.].Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigen. The antigen is generally detectable in nasal samples during the acute phase of infection. Positive results indicate the presence of viral antigens, but the clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine infection status. Positive results do not rule out a bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of thedisease. Laboratories within the United States and its territories are required to report all positive results to the appropriate public health authorities.Negative results should be treated as presumptive, and do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions, including infection control decisions. Negative results should be considered in the context of a patient's recent exposures, history, and the presence of clinical signs and symptoms consistent with COVID-19, and confirmed with a molecular assay, if necessary, for patient management. LooK SPOT COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test can deliver a diagnosis of the SARS-CoV-2 virus detection between 5 to 8 minutes by using machine learning AI. LooK SPOT’s AI algorithm has high accuracy and can identify the fluorescence response when human eyes cannot identify the low positive cases. Healthcare responders in the COVID-19 test sites often need to make time-sensitive decisions to determine the test results during the time many patients are within their vicinity. But the tempo, volume, stress, fatigue, lighting, fear, and various other factors can overwhelm healthcare responders when making the visual interpretation of antigen test results. It is of paramount importance to reduce healthcare responders' cognitive load by providing accurate test results in an easy-to-read format. LooK SPOT COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test is a COVID-19 rapid test solution designed with a tactical edge to fight COVID-19. The LooK SPOT COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test is intended for use at the Point of Care (POC) settings by trained personnel specifically instructed and trained in vitro diagnostic procedures. It is only for use under the Food and Drug Administration's Emergency Use Authorization.

Summary: This protocol describes the purification of high-molecular-weight genomic DNA from mammalian cells and the generation of ultra-long (N50 >100 kbp) Oxford Nanopore data. It is based on the Sambrook and Russell protocol and Josh Quick's protocol with additional modifications. This protocol improves upon previous protocols developed for ultra-long read sequencing, as it gives longer reads with greater yield. In our hands, we obtain about 1-2 Gb of ultra-long-read ONT data with an N50 ~150 kbp on one MinION flow cell.
