Enterocytozoon Hepatopenaei 18S Small Subunit rRNA Gene Nucleotide Sequence and Primers for PCR Detection
This technology uses a PCR test to detect the enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) parasite within shrimp. EHP is linked to the growth retardation of shrimp and has been increasingly prevalent in Southeastern Asia since 2009. Background: It is estimated that across the global tropical shrimp industry alone around 40% of production is lost to disease....

Distributed Feedback Fiber Laser Pumped by Multimode Diode Lasers
Researchers at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences and Canada's Carleton University recently succeeded in fabricating high reflectivity (>99%) Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) into phosphate glass fibers using UV light and a phase mask technique. With this new manufacturing technique, fiber lasers can be created as single monolithic...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...

Infectious Myonecrosis Virus (IMNV) Nucleotide Sequence, Primers for RT-PCR and a DNA Probe for In Situ Hybridization Assays for Detection of the Virus in Shrimp
University researchers have developed a rapid and sensitive method for definitive diagnosis of the disease using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Two primer sets were used to detect 328 and 139 bp amplicons in a nested RT-PCR assay. Background: Infectious myonecrosis virus (IMNV) infecting cultured Litopenaeus vannamei, identified...
