The Argentinian mother-and-child contaminant study: a cross-sectional study among delivering women in the cities of Ushuaia and Salta

Several ongoing international multidisciplinary projects have examined linkages between environmental chemicals and health.In contrast to Arctic regions, information for the Southern Hemisphere is scarce.Because of the inherent practice of pesticide utilisation and mismanagement, food security is potentially threatened.The most vulnerable period in

Phylogenetic footprinting of non-coding RNA: hammerhead ribozyme sequences in a satellite DNA family of Dolichopoda cave crickets (Orthoptera, Rhaphidophoridae)

Abstract Background The great variety in sequence, length, complexity, and abundance of satellite DNA has made it difficult to ascribe any function to this genome component.Recent studies have shown that satellite DNA can be transcribed and be involved in regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression.Some satellite DNAs, such as the pDo500
