Cell Salvage The process of collecting shed blood, its processing and readministration has been termed cell salvage, autotransfusion, intraoperative blood recovery, as well as cell saving. For the purpose of this chapter, the term cell salvage will be used. Cell salvage can take place either in the intraoperative period or in the postoperative period. Salvage can also involve washing of the collected blood or it can be simply readministered with microaggregate filtration. The concept of cell

Materials/Methods and Results-Haematology Practical Haemoglobin Estimation: To determine the amount of haemoglobin concentration in the patient’s blood, an anticoagulated blood sample from the patient and a healthy control, were lysed by converting haemoglobin into cyanmethaemoglobin. Potassium ferricyanide and potassium cyanide are used for this conversion to occur, and the absorbance of this colouring was measured at 540nm using a spectrophotometer. The results were recorded for the patient and

organelles were either lost or transferred to the nucleus. Today, it is demonstrated that from all mitochondrial proteins (over 1500) most of them (93-99%) are encoded in the nucleus, synthesized in the cytoplasm and then imported into the organelles (Woodson and Chory 2008). For instance, human mtDNA only contains 37 genes and codes for 13 encoding polypeptides, 22 tRNAa, and 2 rRNAs (Ryan and Hoogenraad 2007). The relationship between organelles and the nucleus is continually evolving to suit an organism’s

another person through Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT). This process involves taking oocytes, or immature female egg cells that are generated during ovulation, incubating them in in vivo culture, and extracting the nucleus of such cells and replacing them with the the nucleus of another cell. This produces a stem cell with a genetic make-up

AML xenograft model: For the proposed studies to test the efficacy of CK2 inhibitor in AML, we have transduced the human AML cell line, U937 and human APML cell line, HL60 with a lentiviral vector carrying the luciferase gene. The luciferase-producing U937 and HL60 cells were injected via the tail-vein into NOD.Cg-Rag1 Il2rg/SzJ (NRG) mice. After 3-5 days, engraftment of AML cells was confirmed by bioluminescence imaging documenting one log increase in quantitative signal measured by the IVIS Xenogen

Heterogeneous ribonucleic proteins (HNRNPs) are a family of RNA binding proteins that play a key role in various metabolic functions of RNA. There are roughly twenty major hnRNPs which are readily found in large quantities in the nucleus and in some cases in the cytoplasm. hnRNPs are expressed throughout all tissues at different levels depending on the hnRNP (Kamma et al. 1994). hnRNP metabolic roles include polyadanilation, shuttling mRNA out of the nuclear envelope, telomere biogenesis and localization

What is a 24 hours Scientific Meditation? Meditation is known to human since time immemorial and it is prevalent in almost all religions. However Religion is not the jurisdiction of meditation although It can go well together. Knowingly or unknowingly everyone does meditation. A scientific explanation of Meditation is ‘communication between consciousness to the cells and genes of the body’. A 24 hours Scientific Meditation can be described as using scientific evidence based knowledge for practicing

How are proteins transported out of the nucleus? Eukaryotic cells rely majorly on the aqueous pores of the nuclear envelope, the double membrane system surrounds the nucleoplasm, as a pathway for transportation of proteins between the nucleus and the cytosol. The process is commonly known as a kind of gated transportation as to the fact that the nuclear pore complexes (NPC) that are embedded in the aqueous pores serve as gates that only select certain molecules to pass. Proteins, as macromolecules

phase DNA appears grainy in photos and the cell nucleus contains two complete sets of DNA. Gap 2, is the third stage of the cell cycle. The cells continue doing there thing and more growth occurs. This phase is like the checkpoint, everything in the cell has to be going right for the cell to be able to enter mitosis. Mitosis is the fourth stage of the cell cycle. It includes two phases mitosis and cytokinesis. Mitosis is the division of the cell's nucleus and all it’s contents. Cytokinesis is the process

Eukaryotic cells have structural advantages over Prokaryotic cells, due to the presence of specific internal organelles, such as a nucleus; where DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) and genetic codes are found, as well as the presence of other organelles which are bigger in eukaryotes, such as mitochondria. Also, eukaryotes can be considered structurally advanced as its organelles are enclosed by a membrane, making it larger in size and stronger compared to a prokaryote. Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have
