Research in the field of pulmonary biology often requires detailed analysis of lung tissues. One of the optimal methods for studying lung structures and functions in mice is the use of C57 mouse models, specifically through the preparation of frozen sections. This technique is vital for a variety of applications, including histological studies, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analysis. Why ...
Serrapeptase, also known as serratiopeptidase, is a proteolytic enzyme extracted from the intestines of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. It has gained considerable interest in both the medical and wellness communities for its potential therapeutic benefits, particularly in promoting pain relief, reducing inflammation, and aiding tissue healing. Understanding serrapeptase and its applications can shed ...
Welcome to 2023-2024 season’s respiratory surveillance recap, where we’ll share insights from the most recent respiratory surveillance season, covering three major respiratory viruses: COVID-19, influenza, and RSV. ...
In a recent Nature publication by Schappe,M (2024), researchers have revealed a fascinating aspect of respiratory physiology: the role of sensory neurons in guarding against airway obstruction and orchestrating crucial reflexes to maintain respiratory function.

Feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) can cause acute and highly contagious infectious diseases in cats, namely feline infectious rhinotracheitis. In 1958, FHV-1 was isolated and identified for the first time from kittens suffering from respiratory diseases in the United States by Crandell et al. Clinical manifestations include keratoconjunctivitis, upper respiratory tract infection and miscarriage, ...
16S/18S/ITS amplicon sequencing has now been a well-established method. Due to its low cost, shorter cycle and low quality requirement of the sample, 16S/18S/ITS amplicon sequencing is widely used in the study of microorganisms. 16S/18S/ITS amplicon sequencing reveals the species of microorganisms in environmental samples and their differences, relative abundance, population structure and ...
