Cas Walker by Joshua S. Hodge Pdf

Businessman, politician, broadcasting personality, and newspaper publisher, Cas Walker (1902–1998) was, by his own estimation, a “living legend” in Knoxville for much of the twentieth century. Renowned for his gravelly voice and country-boy persona, he rose from blue-collar beginnings to make a fortune as a grocer whose chain of supermarkets extended from East Tennessee into Virginia and Kentucky. To promote his stores, he hosted a local variety show, first on radio and then TV, that advanced the careers of many famed country music artists from a young Dolly Parton to Roy Acuff, Chet Atkins, and Bill Monroe. As a member of the Knoxville city council, he championed the “little man” while ceaselessly irritating the people he called the “silk-stocking crowd.” This wonderfully entertaining book brings together selections from interviews with a score of Knoxvillians, various newspaper accounts, Walker’s own autobiography, and other sources to present a colorful mosaic of Walker’s life. The stories range from his flamboyant advertising schemes—as when he buried a man alive outside one of his stores—to memories of his inimitable managerial style—as when he infamously canned the Everly Brothers because he didn’t like it when they began performing rock ’n’ roll. Further recollections call to mind Walker’s peculiar brand of bare-knuckle politics, his generosity to people in need, his stance on civil rights, and his lifelong love of coon hunting (and coon dogs). The book also traces his decline, hastened in part by a successful libel suit brought against his muckraking weekly newspaper, the Watchdog. It’s said that any Knoxvillian born before 1980 has a Cas Walker story. In relating many of those stories in the voices of those who still remember him, this book not only offers an engaging portrait of the man himself and his checkered legacy, but also opens a new window into the history and culture of the city in which he lived and thrived.

CRISPR-Cas Systems by Rodolphe Barrangou,John van der Oost Pdf

CRISPR/Cas is a recently described defense system that protects bacteria and archaea against invasion by mobile genetic elements such as viruses and plasmids. A wide spectrum of distinct CRISPR/Cas systems has been identified in at least half of the available prokaryotic genomes. On-going structural and functional analyses have resulted in a far greater insight into the functions and possible applications of these systems, although many secrets remain to be discovered. In this book, experts summarize the state of the art in this exciting field.

CRISPR-Cas system based diagnosis of infectious diseases by ROOHI BANSAL Pdf

Since its discovery as a part of the bacterial defense mechanism, the Nobel Prize-winning technology CRISPR-Cas system has revolutionized the fields of genome editing and genetic engineering. Beyond gene-editing ability, scientists have leveraged its potential in the diagnosis of infectious diseases including COVID-19. This book provides a detailed understanding of CRISPR-based rapid and point-of-care diagnostic kits like SHERLOCK, DETECTR, FELUDA, AIOD CRISPR-Cas12a, etc. Although these CRISPR-based tests are performed using isothermal nucleic acid amplification processes like RPA and LAMP, they promise a real-time RT-PCR sensitivity. Furthermore, the tests’ results can be interpreted using paper-based lateral flow strips, potentially reducing laboratory and test costs. In this technique, the colored lines on the strip, similar to pregnancy tests, indicate whether the test is positive or negative. Because of the ease of performing the test and simple interpretation of the test results, CRISPR-based tests can be used at airports, ports, clinics, schools, etc., for better disease diagnosis, monitoring, management, and containment of infectious diseases like COVID-19. Additionally, the book also discusses Monoclonal Antibodies, which have revolutionized the treatment for cancer, arthritis, autoimmune diseases, etc. This book also talks about various strategies to isolate monoclonal antibodies from the COVID-19 recovered people and different ways to engineer these antibodies using hybridoma technology.

From CA to CAS online by Hedda Schulz,Ursula Georgy Pdf

Since this book was first published in 1985, tremendous changes have taken place in the field of online searching. Thus a second edition was truely over due. Dr. Hedda Schulz, author of the first edition, found a most competent and renowned searcher as her co-author in the person of Dr. Ursula Georgy. The authors have undertaken an enormous task. As a result of their efforts, a convincing handbook had been written. It will reliably serve newcomers and experts alike it is an instruction manual as well as a reference book. The importance of modem information handling has been advanced in many an article, book and preface. It is therefore unnecessary to repeat the arguments here. This book can contribute to creating a deeper understanding of information handling in those persons who have not yet registered its impor tance or who are standing on the sidelines waiting sceptically. In contrast, all those people who have so far believed that you only need to connect your personal computer to a modem will be shown in a thoroughly professional way that there is a lot more to online searching than pressing keys on your keyboard. To own a palette and easel does not make you an artist. Apart from the benefit, that searchers and readers will draw from it, this book should help to eradicate the timeworn motto: the world's knowledge at your fingertips.
