Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates
Project description:Comparative genomic hybridization between Escherichia coli strains to determine core and pan genome content of clinical and environmental isolates Two color experiment, Escherichia coli Sakai (reference), clinical and environmental Escherichia coli strains (testers): At least two replicates including a single dye swap for each reference-tester comparison
Project description:The primary goals of this study are to: determine how intracellular infection of urothelial cells with uropathogenic Escherichia coli influences urothelial cell metabolism, and determine the influence of cytochrome bd on the urothelial cell response to infection
Project description:Cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH), mucometra, and pyometra are common uterine diseases in intact dogs, with pyometra being a life threatening disease. This study aimed to determine the gene expression profile of these conditions, in addition to potential biomarkers for closed-cervix pyometra, the most severe condition Total RNA was extracted from 69 fresh endometrium samples collected from 21 healthy female dogs during diestrus, 16 CEH, 15 mucometra and 17 pyometra (eight open and nine closed-cervix). Global gene expression was detected using the Affymetrix Canine Gene 1.0 ST Array
