A new potentially interesting resource has been described in the abstract by Vojta et al. : Subchromosomal transferable fragments(STFs). These are generated starting from the chromosome 1-only interspecific hybrid using futher fragmentation by means of the combination of the random integration of a retroviral vector bearing a selectable marker, and gamma irradiation, by means of several steps of microcell mediated chromosome transfer and selective propagation in mouse A9 cells. 3, record 1, English, - microcell%2Dmediated%20chromosome%20transfer

Les vecteurs les plus sophistiqués, les YAC [...], ont permis récemment l'introduction de 1000 mégabases. MJ Mendez et al. ont tout simplement introduit dans les cellules ES, grâce à un procédé, le microcell-mediated chromosome transfer (MMCT), des chromosomes entiers. Des cellules hybrides hommes-souris possédant, chacune, un chromosome humain ont d'abord été sélectionnées puis fractionnées en «microcellules». Celles-ci ont été fusionnées aux cellules ES qui ont alors été introduites dans des embryons précoces de souris, réimplantés ultérieurement dans des femelles pseudogestantes. 1, record 1, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20MMCT

Blood irradiator BI-2000. Applications :Irradiation of blood & blood products by gamma rays is a proven and safe method to inhibit T-Lymphocyte proliferation and eliminate the risk of post transfusion graft versus host disease(T-GVHD). Gamma irradiation of cellular blood components is the best current technology to reduce the risk of T-GVHD to the recipients as confirmed by research and therefore being widely practiced world over in hospitals and blood banks as a life saving approach to this problem. Blood is usually irradiated in standard blood bags in dedicated blood irradiators using cobalt-60 or caesium-137 radioactive source. The usual recommended radiation doses are 25 Gy to 35 Gy(1 Gy=100 rad) for this purposes. 2, record 9, English, - blood%20irradiator
