A rapid lateral flow immunoassay is presented that uses carboxyl-modified superparamagnetic nanoparticles as labels that can be quantified by highly sensitive multi-channel electronic readers. The approach is generic in that it is likely to be applicable to numerous small molecules. The method permits both single- and multiplex assays at a point-of-need without sample pretreatment. It is user-friendly and offers attractive characteristics demonstrated here for detection of morphine, fentanyl and methamphetamine in . The competitive immunoassay uses commercially available reagents that do not require special permissions. After migration of sample, the lateral flow test strips are subjected to an alternating magnetic field at two frequencies. The response from the nanolabels is readout at a combinatorial frequency from the entire volume of a porous immunochromatographic membrane by the magnetic particle quantification technique.
application to the determination of drugs of abuse.
Estimating the detection time of a drug in urine is complex because of many different influencing factors and the lack of experimental data. Detection times vary depending on dose and route of administration, metabolism and characteristics of the screening and confirmation assays. Using a cut-off value of 1000 ng/mL, urinary samples can be positive for amphetamine for up to 5 days after intake of the drug.
The variables in a study of a cause-and-effect relationship are called the independent and dependent variables. The independent variable is the cause. Its value is independent of other variables in your study. The dependent variable is the effect.
Answer:
Achondroplasia affects the long bones and individual has normal size, head and torso.
Explanation:
Achondroplasia dwarfism may be defined as the form of dwarfism in which the conversion of bone to cartilage is defected. This is the most common form of dwarfism.
Achondroplasia dwarfism mainly affects the long bones of an individual as there is problem in the conversion of cartilage to bone. The individuals have short arms and legs but they have normal head and torso size. The individuals has height around 4 feet.
Answer:
The answer is letter A.
Explanation:
The false statement about glycogen is UDP–glucose is produced from glycogen by the action of the enzyme phosphorylase Glycogen is a polymer of glucose in alpha(1->4) linkages with alpha(1->6) linked branches every 8–14 residues.
