Mawi’s iSWAB-DNA was used to collect saliva samples from parents and children for Whole Exome Sequencing. Two take away messages from this paper: We enable whole exome sequencing One iSWAB sample collection (iSWAB-DNA-250) vs. Four of DNA Genotek (OGR-175, OGR-500, OGR-525, and OGR-57) View Protocol

READ MOREPleiotropic Effects in Exome Sequencing of Siblings with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Speech Sound Disorder
Article Abstract Recent studies of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) have resulted in conflicting conclusions regarding the comorbidity of these disorders on phenotypic grounds. In a nuclear family with two dually affected and one unaffected offspring, whole-exome sequences were evaluated…

Article Abstract Within the over 70 reported transforming growth factor-beta–induced (TGFBI) corneal dystrophy mutations,1more than 40 are associated with lattice corneal dystrophy (LCD), subtypes I, III, IIIA, and IIIB according to the Human Gene Mutation Database (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). This is a follow-up investigation to…
READ MOREUnderstanding the Effects of Waterpipe Smoke on Oxidative Stress in Buccal Cells
Oxidative stress is an imbalance between reactive species and antioxidants production, leading to protein, DNA and lipid damage. The aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative stress levels in buccal cells of ten non-shisha and heavy shisha smokers using MAWI iSWAB protein tubes.…
