Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has a short replication time, high mutation rates and large population sizes, all of which make it an excellent experimental model for evolution studies, because evolution can be visualized in real-time.In this review, we discuss the implications to study HCV evolution at the interpatient and intrapatient levels of infection
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important pathogen that can infect both humans and cattle.The widespread K.pneumoniae and its high drug resistance make it difficult to treat Klebsiella infections/diseases.In this study, a lytic K.pneumoniae bacteriophage vB_Kpn_B01 was isolated from a dairy farm trough in Sichuan Province, and its biological properties
Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a widely used measurement technique to determine the mobility of fluorescent molecules within living cells.While the experimental setup and protocol for FRAP experiments are usually fixed, data (pre)processing represents an important issue.The aim of this paper is twofold.First, we formulate and
Recently, the dangers associated with face generation technology have been attracting much attention in image processing and forensic science.The current face anti-spoofing methods based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) suffer from defects such as overfitting and generalization problems.This paper proposes a new generation method using a o
