Wastes from hospitals, laboratories, human and animal clinics are considered hazardous and non-hazardous waste. Non-hazardous includes beddings, linens, bandages, and even waste from the kitchen. In ...

One observation, made more than 80 years ago about precisely where on chromosomes crossovers happen, has fueled research in Dr. Gerry Smith’s laboratory in the Basic Sciences Division. That ...

Precise and rapid DNA segregation is required for proper inheritance of genetic material. In most bacteria and archaea, this process is assured by a broadly conserved mitotic-like apparatus in which a ...

From avocado plants to baker's yeast, humans to zebras, sexually reproducing organisms must create germ cells that contain half the number of chromosomes found in a typical body cell. When these germ ...

segregation of IT environments is a conventional technique, but one that remains just as relevant in today’s context, as organisations seek to limit intruders’ ability to move across the network ...

For a living cell to divide successfully, each daughter cell must inherit the correct genetic material. In eukaryotes, segregation of duplicated chromosomes is performed by the mitotic spindle, a ...

Proper DNA inheritance is essential for healthy chloroplast: the energy center of all plant cells. Researchers discover a new gene in chloroplast that disentangles its DNA for proper plant health.

Optimally positioned crossovers facilitate the proper segregation of chromosomes in meiosis. A new study in yeast implicates the spindle checkpoint in the rescue of crossovers that occur too distant ...
