Uses of thyme and health benefits. Also includes use of thyme essential oil as headlice deterrent. Note that thyme oil is toxic and should not be used for any other purpose.
Cancer is still the second most common cause of death in the major industrial nations.
Some people are particularly sensitive to oncogenic factors.
External factors include;
- Radiation and radioactive substances
- Certain chemical products (food additives, contaminants, certain drugs)
A cell that has undergone change is malignant. Unlike normal cells, cancerous cells multiply ceaselessly, and unless arrested, they will kill the host.
Pest management involves using integrated approaches including cultural, mechanical, biological and chemical controls. Cultural controls prevent pest issues through practices like crop rotation, sanitation and resistant varieties. Monitoring involves regular inspections to identify pests and determine if thresholds are met. Once thresholds are reached, actions like targeted pesticide use or harvesting are implemented to control pests. The goal is to use a balanced combination of methods to reduce pest populations in an environmentally sound and cost effective manner.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
