The Risk of Microbial Transmission in Recipients of Donor Livers That Underwent Hypothermic or Normothermic Machine Perfusion.

Ex situ machine perfusion is increasingly used to preserve and assess donor livers before transplantation. Compared with traditional static cold storage (SCS), machine perfusion exposes livers to an additional risk of microbial contamination. However, information on the risk of microbial transmission during machine perfusion is lacking.

bridge (tool)

RRID:SCR_001343

Software package to test for differentially expressed genes with microarray data. It can be used with both cDNA microarrays or Affymetrix chip. The packge fits a robust Bayesian hierarchical model for testing for differential expression. Outliers are modeled explicitly using a $t$-distribution. The model includes an exchangeable prior for the variances which allow different variances for the genes but still shrink extreme empirical variances. The model can be used for testing for differentially expressed genes among multiple samples, and can distinguish between the different possible patterns of differential expression when there are three or more samples. Parameter estimation is carried out using a novel version of Markov Chain Monte Carlo that is appropriate when the model puts mass on subspaces of the full parameter space.

QIAGEN (tool)

RRID:SCR_008539

A commercial organization which provides assay technologies to isolate DNA, RNA, and proteins from any biological sample. Assay technologies are then used to make specific target biomolecules, such as the DNA of a specific virus, visible for subsequent analysis.
