Detection of genome wide polymorphisms in the AT rich Plasmodium falciparum genome using a high density microarray
[…] nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) from the parasite genome. Here we evaluate polymorphism detection accuracy of a high-density 'tiling' microarray with 2.56 million probes by comparing single feature polymorphisms (SFP) calls from the microarray with known SNP among parasite isolates. Results: We found that probe GC content, SNP position in a probe, probe coverage, and signal ratio cutoff values were important factors for accurate detection of SFP in the parasite genome. We established a set […] read

Don’t You Dare Drink Starbucks in the Lobby of 15 Central Park West
Photo: nymag.comArchitecture critic Paul Golberger probes inside 15 Central Park West today over at Vanity Fair, and while we don't learn much new about the new mega-expensive co-op building, there are some nice details to the piece. For example, the exterior "is covered entirely in limestone, more than 85,000 pieces of it," Goldberger reveals. "Covering the entire building in limestone cost a couple of million dollars more than brick would […] read

Major DNS Flaw Finally Publicized - Exploits in the wild...
[…] the precise DNS flaw mechanics. This quickly resulted in the development of two working exploits. The Register offers one of several layman breakdowns:1. Bad Guy probes the target DNS to see if it's vulnerable (a couple free services can do this) 2. Bad Guy picks a domain they want to hijack for users of that DNS Server 3. Bad Guy runs the bailiwicked_domain module and takes control of that domain in the cache of that serverAnyone who then uses that vulnerable DNS server is going […] read

The Performance of Six Pulse Oximeters in the Environment of Neuronavigation
[…] oximeters for signal quality (P < 0.001) and saturation recognition (P < 0.001), and for the response to shielding methods (P < 0.001). Coverage of the probes with aluminum foil resulted an in undisturbed saturation recognition in all subjects with almost all monitors. CONCLUSIONS: Infrared pulse waves from neurosurgical navigation equipment may interfere with pulse oximeter measurements. Shielding the probe with aluminum foil sufficiently eliminated the infrared interference. read
