W pracy pokazano użyteczność dwóch nowych metod do typowania molekularnego Staphylococcus aureus, ADSRRS-fingerprinting (Amplification of DNA fragments Surrounding Rare Restriction Sites) i PCR MP (PCR melting profile). Przebadano 37 szczepów Staphylococcus aureus izolowanych od pacjentów z czyracznością. Jako metodę referencyjną zastosowano REA-PFGE. Okazało się, że izolaty Staphylococcus aureus z nosa od niektórych pacjentów...

Psoriasis is a multifactorial disease in which genetic, environmental and epigenetic factors regulating gene expression play a key role. In the “genomic era”, genome-wide association studies together with target genotyping platforms performed in different ethnic populations have found more than 50 genetic susceptible markers associated with the risk of psoriasis which have been identified so far. Up till now, the strongest association...

In this paper a new digital fingerprinting scheme for images is proposed. A proposed method is based on quaternion encryption with Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode of operation. Quaternions are hyper-complex numbers of rank 4 and thus often applied to mechanics in three-dimensional space. The encryption algorithm is designed for grey-tone images. For purpose of encryption, the algorithm uses the rotation of data vectors presented...
