Summary: This reagent can be used in ELISA, Western blotting and Dot blot to detect antigens and antibodies. It is important in the immunodiagnosis of infectious diseases and other problems. Protein L binds to kappa light chains of immunoglobulins from many animal species including human, mouse, rat, chicken, hamster and pig [1].1.

Summary: The inactivation protocol uses a chemical plus heat to break open cells (including virus, if present) and preserve the RNA. The inactivation can be done outside a lab setting, at the point of sample collection or drop-off. This is our preferred mode, and we refer to these as "inactivation stations". Prior to inactivation, the samples may contain live, contagious virus, so it is crucial that personnel use proper PPE and safe handling procedures. Many current community screening efforts are performing non-lab based sample processing (for example, Dave O'Connor and Chris Mason), and we have followed their examples with the use of splash guards in addition to PPE.After inactivation, samples should be refrigerated or stored on ice before same-day processing through the assay.On our website are our protocols in worksheet form as we use in the lab. This and more information will be live soon.

Summary: There has been considerable interest in the measurement of cortisol in hair as a biomarker of stress since work by Davenport et al. (2006). The methodology developed by our laboratory is intended to allow for a scalable method for hair analysis that can be undertaken for large numbers of hair samples and has the minimum number of steps to reduce the chance of error and reduce costs. Our method reduces the number of steps where the sample is transferred to another container as it is kept in the same tube from initial weighing through to end of the methanol incubation. The procedure is also very scalable. The ‘rate limiting’ step for our hair analysis procedure is the grinding of the hair and this has been partially automated using the MP Biological Fast Prep grinder which is highly scalable. Final quantification of cortisol is performed via an ELISA assay, an assay which is rapid and cost effective.References:Davenport, M. D., Tiefenbacher, S., Lutz, C. K., Novak, M. a., & Meyer, J. S.

Summary: A recombinant protein that combines the IgG-binding domains of SpA and SpG was developed, and labelled to horseradish peroxidase. It was used as universal conjugate in ELISA for the assessment of antibodies against Brucella spp in cattle, sheep, dogs, goats and pigs. It was reported that similar results as the one shown using the chimeric protein AG were obtained when murine monoclonal antibody-enzyme conjugates were used [1,2]. References1.

Summary: Background: The blood clam, Scapharca (Anadara) broughtonii, is an economically and ecologically important marine bivalve of the Family Arcidae. The efforts that have been made to study their population genetics, breeding, cultivation and stock enrichment were somewhat hindered by the lack of a reference genome. Here, we reported the complete genome sequence of S. broughtonii, a first reference genome of the Family Arcidae.Funding: A total of 75.79 Gb clean data was generated with the PacBio and Oxford Nanopore platforms, which represented approx. 86× coverage of the S. broughtonii genome. De novo assembly of these long reads resulted in an 884.5 Mb genome, with a contig N50 of 1.80 Mb and scaffold N50 of 45.00 Mb, respectively. Genome Hi-C scaffolding resulted in 19 chromosomes containing 99.35% of bases of the assembled genome. Genome annotation revealed that a considerable part of the genome (46.1%) is composed by repeated sequences, while 24,045 protein-coding genes were predicted and 84.7% of them were annotated.Conclusion: We report here the chromosomal-level assembly of the S. broughtonii genome based on long read sequencing and Hi-C scaffolding. The genomic data could be served as reference genome for the Arcidae Family and will provide a valuable resource for the scientific community and aquaculture sector.
