Human intestinal organoid model for celiac disease research

Celiac disease pathogenesis, in addition to immune cell component, encompasses pathogenic events also in the duodenal epithelium. In celiac disease patients, exposure to dietary gluten induces drastic changes in epithelial differentiation and elicit cellular response to inflammatory cytokines. The autoantigen in celiac disease, transglutaminase 2 (TG2) enzyme, has been also suggested to play its pathogenic…

Geosampler

Terramonitor Geosampler calculates the zonal statistics (mean, maximum, minimum etc.) from a raster file containing geographical information, around coordinate points defined in the input file with a given radius in meters. Produces a csv file in the output directory with zonal statistics added to the points. The method is based on the QGIS Zonal Statistics…

Geocoder

The geocoder converts addresses to coordinates and produces a csv file with coordinates in the output directory. The method is based on the geopy Python package, see https://geopy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ for detailed information. Requirements Ubuntu operating system + Python3 Usage python3 geocoder.py [csv filename with addresses in input directory] Example: python3 geocoder.py sample_input.csv The input csv file should…

Array-in-Well (AiW) Multiplex Assay Platform

The Array-in-well (AiW) platform is a high-throughput array-based multiplex assay platform that offers a sample-saving alternative to replacing or complementing ELISA in serological analyses. The AiW platform consists of dot arrays printed at the bottom of microtiter plate wells. Each well can contain nearly a hundred dots of different bio-affinity reagents, such as antibodies, antigens,…

1H NMR spectrometry for analysis of biological samples

A 500 MHz spectrometer dedicated to metabolomics of biological samples, with standard protocols for faecal, urine, and plasma analysis, is a powerful tool capable of monitoring the concentrations of 30-60 small molecular metabolites in each sample. It is suitable for robust screening of biological samples in clinical studies or epidemiological cohorts. This spectrometer allows for…
