Noninfectious factors associated with cervical inflammation on Pap smear results
The purpose of this study was to establish if there is a relationship between degree of tampon use and cervical inflammation of women with no history of sexually transmitted disease, previous abnormal Pap smears, and no current abnormal vaginal symptoms. This non-experimental retrospective study …

Hybrid Gene Therapy Vectors Comprised of Synthetic Polymer and Noninfectious Virus -Like Particles
While the hybrid vectors have combined some of the beneficial traits of the polymer and viral components the efficiency of the vector is low, in comparison to conventional viral vectors. Based on the changes in gene expression over time and the effect of chloroquine, the limiting step of hybrid …

Characterization of P39, A <i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> Specific Protein
… separate investigations. First, infectious and noninfectious isolates of <em>B. burgdorferi</em> were established in vitro, and the infectivity of each was assessed in a murine model. Second, the location of P39 within the spirochete was determined in infectious and noninfectious isolates by …

Analysis of the role of outer surface protein C (OspC) in Borrelia burgdorferi pathogenesis
… residue within LBD1 rendered B. burgdorferi noninfectious, indicating the importance of this domain in infection establishment. The variable portion of OspC was investigated by: (1) altering the surface charge of ligand binding domain 2 (LBD2), (2) inserting different OspC types into a …

Mathematical Modeling Of Smallpox Withoptimal Intervention Policy
… (3) infected but asymptomatic, noninfectious, and vaccine-in-sensitive; (4) infected but asymptomatic, and infectious; and (5) symptomatic and isolated. Exponential probability distribution is used for modeling this case. We compare outcomes of mass vaccination and trace …

Investigation into the mechanism of immature HIV-1 capsid assembly
… the host cell membrane. The resulting immature, noninfectious<br/>virions are released from the cell and the viral protease, PR, hydrolyses Gag into<br/>its component domains. MA remains at the membrane and NC remains in complex with<br/>the genome, whilst CA reassembles as a mature capsid with a …

Enzyme diffusion and cellulose breakdown in the bioremediation of medical waste
… enzymes in a batch reactor to render the waste noninfectious. The success of this biological process depends on (among other things) two mechanisms: the diffusion of the disinfecting enzymes into small crevices within the waste stream and the breakdown of cellulose-derived material by cellulase …

Genetic and Biochemical Analysis of the Bryan Strain of Rous Sarcoma Virus
… inhibited. This was accomplished by using the noninfectious pol<sup>-</sup>, env<sup>-</sup> alpha variant of the Bryan high titer strain of Rous sarcoma virus (BH-RSV). Twelve independent BHRSV-transformed chicken embryo fibroblast clones were obtained and the provirus-cell junction fragments …

Identification of novel cellular components associated with early HIV-1 nucleoprotein complexes
… and the addition of biotin rendered this virus noninfectious. The insertion and addition of biotin severely disrupted integration activity of this virus. HIV-1 IN and MA protein complexes were affinity purified at 4 hours post infection and candidate cellular proteins were identified by mass …

Sturcture and function of tomato ringspot virus RNA1 and RNA2
… for viral symptoms. Transcripts were found to be noninfectious.

Development of West Nile virus candidate vaccines in Nicotiana benthamiana
… by exploiting the virus's ability to form noninfectious VLPs by expressing only the WNV membrane (prM – precursor, M – matured) and envelope (E) proteins. Infiltration of these recombinant plasmids into plants yielded no protein expression unless co-expressed with the human chaperone …

Pharmacokinetics of a novel cytosine arabinoside subcutaneous protocol in dogs with meningoencephalomyelitis of unknown etiology
… is an umbrella term used to describe a group of noninfectious inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) diseases in dogs. There are many subtypes of MUE identified in the canine population, including granulomatous meningoencephalomyelitis, necrotizing meningoencephalitis, necrotizing …
