who can receive from a b- donor?
Can you explain the idea a little more? I don't fully understand how to do something. Do we need to add a new drug? Should I change the printing method of the surgical patch? How will the idea develop?
Why is this technique used?

- An experiment was performed in mice. Wild-type bone marrow is used to reconstitute lethally irradiated Cr2-/- mice (wt®Cr2-/-), or vice versa (Cr2-/-®wt). As controls, Cr2-/- bone marrow is used to reconstitute Cr2-/- recipients (Cr2-/-®Cr2-/-), and wild-type bone marrow used to reconstitute wild-type recipients (wt®wt). These mice are then inoculated with the HSV-rd virus at 106 PFU, once at day 0 and then a second time at day 28, and the anti-HSV IgG responses are measured every 7 days, as shown in figure below. a) From the data shown above, on which cell type is the expression of the complement receptor most important for humoral immunity? b) For each of the cell types expressing the complement receptor encoded by Cr2, what is the explanation for their importance in humoral immunity to HSV inoculation?arrow_forwardIn the protocol, why is the nucleus of the oocyte removed?arrow_forwardWhich DNA samples are likely to be contaminated?arrow_forward

- Which person type O, A, B, or AB is considered a universal donor, and which is a universal recipient? Explain your answer?arrow_forwardMr. I. M. Megabucks, the wealthiest man in the world, recently died. Since his death, three women have come forward. Each woman claims to have a child by Megabucks and demands a substantial share of his estate for her child. Lawyers for the estate have insisted on DNA typing of each of the alleged heirs. Fortunately, Megabucks anticipated trouble like this before he died, and he arranged to have a sample of his blood frozen for DNA typing. The results of the typing are shown in the figure below. Your job is to analyze the data and determine whether any of the children could be Megabucks' heir. Remember that every person has two of each chromosome, one inherited from his mother and one inherited from his father. Half of every person's DNA comes from his mother, and half comes from his father, so some of the DNA bands showing in the children will come from their mothers, and the rest will come from their fathers. The question is, could that father be Megabucks? For the first child,…arrow_forwardExplain how PCR/OLA (polymerase chain reaction/oligonucleotide ligation assay) can be used in the diagnosis of sickle cell disorder .
