Non-thermal processing of cashews: irradiation reduces allergenicity by altering the structure of Ana o 3

Abstract

Traditional thermal processing of cashews not only results in nutrient loss and harmful by-products, but also does not significantly reduce allergenicity. Irradiation could be an important non-thermal processing method to...

Uncertainty Estimation for Quantitative Agarose Gel Electrophoresis of Nucleic Acids

“…Although the recent advent of next-generation sequencing technologies has the potential to replace many of the current uses of agarose gels, their ease of use and versatility means that this technique is likely to persist for the foreseeable future”. Among the numerous applications of electrophoretic separation of nucleic acids in agarose gel, the following can be mentioned: studies on cancer [ 7 , 8 ], gene mutations [ 9 , 10 ], molecular alteration caused by radiation [ 11 , 12 ], etc. The wide use of the method is the reason for applying electrophoretic separation in agarose gel as a comparison standard when developing other quantitative analysis methods [ 13 ].…”
