Abstract: A method is provided for detecting the presence of heart disease in a subject, comprising the steps of: (a) determining the level of expression of each of a plurality of miRNAs within a sample from a subject; and (b) using one or more Artificial Intelligence (AI) model to predict the disease condition of the subject.

Abstract: Immunogenic compositions containing Escherichia coli 0157:H7 flagella including fusion proteins and methods using the immunogenic compositions are disclosed. Inducing an immune response in an animal to Escherichia coli O157:H7 flagella will result in prevention of colonization by Escherichia coli O157:H7 in the animal or a reduction in the amount of Escherichia coli O157:H7 infecting the animal. The immune composition will prevent or reduce the attachment of Escherichia coli 0157:H7 to cells within the animal.

Abstract: We describe a method for detection of the presence of an invertebrate or an invertebrate component in a sample of substantially non invertebrate material, comprising impinging said sample with a source of electromagnetic radiation at a wavelength of at least 600 nm and detecting Raman scattering/fluorescence of said invertebrate or a component of said invertebrate at a wavenumber where the non-invertebrate components of said sample either do not fluoresce or fluoresce with sufficiently low intensity wherein the non invertebrate material is edible and/or living.
