DNA Methylation Age AccelerationAge acceleration can be defined as the difference between the DNA methylation age and the actual age, or as the residual resulting from regressing the DNA methylation age on the actual age. In comparison, the latter definition is more accurate and practical. We can determine the rate of biological aging based on the specific value of the DNA methylation age acceleration, with positive values indicating faster than expected aging and negative values the opposite.DN...

Laboratory equipment is a general term for the various instruments, containers and other tools needed for operation, synthesis, and analysis in various laboratories. The equipment helps researchers to observe, test, experiment or analyze data to confirm the authenticity or rationality of scientific hypotheses. According to the scope of application, laboratory equipment can be divided into general equipment and specialized equipment.General laboratory equipment includes freezers, incubators, shak...

Strong base anion (SBA) exchange resin is one type of ion exchange resins containing quaternary ammonium groups on the microsphere surfaces. The SBA resin shows an excellent physical and chemical stability, which is capable to exchange the different anion under a wide range of pH value. SBA resins are ideal for removing certain anionic contaminants and can be regenerated with salt.SBA resins are usually divided into two classes according to their functional groups. Type I SBA resins are aminated...

Aging is a biological process that occurs in each of us as individuals and is accompanied by a variety of changes. At the molecular level, DNA methylation occurs, a process in which a methyl group is covalently bonded at the cytosine 5 carbon position of a genomic CpG dinucleotide, and the association between DNA methylation and aging has been extensively studied and their close correlation has been found.DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays a key role in many aging-related b...

The ability to overexpress genes in microorganisms has revolutionized the field of synthetic biology. Gene overexpression involves the production of large quantities of target proteins by increasing the transcription and translation of the gene of interest. This technique has been applied in the engineering of microorganisms to produce a wide range of products, including biofuels, chemicals, and biopharmaceuticals. There are several strategies for gene overexpression in strain engineering. One c...
