  2. Molecular Koch's postulates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_Koch's_postulates

    As per Falkow's original descriptions, the three postulates are: [1] "The phenotype or property under investigation should be associated with pathogenic members of a genus or pathogenic strains of a species. Specific inactivation of the gene(s) associated with the suspected virulence trait should lead to a measurable loss in pathogenicity or ...

  3. Stanley Falkow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Falkow

    Falkow is known as the father of the field of molecular microbial pathogenesis. [1] He formulated molecular Koch's postulates, which have guided the study of the microbial determinants of infectious diseases since the late 1980s. [2] Falkow spent over 50 years uncovering molecular mechanisms of how bacteria cause disease and how to disarm them. [1]

  4. Koch's postulates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch's_postulates

    In 1988, microbiologist Stanley Falkow developed a set of three Molecular Koch's postulates for identifying the microbial genes encoding virulence factors. First, the phenotype of a disease symptom must be associated with a specific genotype only found in pathogenic strains. Second, that symptom should not be present when the associated gene is ...

    The exact cause of Alzheimer’s disease has long evaded scientists, but experts typically suggest there are likely several factors (like genetics, environment, and lifestyle) that contribute to ...

    Microbial pathogenesis is a field of microbiology that started at least as early as 1988, with the identification of the triune Falkow's criteria, aka molecular Koch's postulates.

    Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics, Inc., 569 U.S. 576 (2013), was a Supreme Court case, which decided that "a naturally occurring DNA segment is a product of nature and not patent eligible merely because it has been isolated.” [1] However, the Court allowed patenting of complementary DNA, which contains exactly the same protein-coding base pair sequence as the natural ...

    In coordination with these concepts, in 1833 the French chemist Marc Antoine Auguste Gaudin presented a clear account of Avogadro's hypothesis, [10] regarding atomic weights, by making use of "volume diagrams", which clearly show both semi-correct molecular geometries, such as a linear water molecule, and correct molecular formulas, such as H 2 O:

  9. Supramolecular chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_recognition

    Supramolecular chemistry refers to the branch of chemistry concerning chemical systems composed of a discrete number of molecules.The strength of the forces responsible for spatial organization of the system range from weak intermolecular forces, electrostatic charge, or hydrogen bonding to strong covalent bonding, provided that the electronic coupling strength remains small relative to the ...
