cause severe damage to crops. However‚ a number of fungi‚ in particular the yeasts‚ are important "model organisms" for studying problems in genetics and molecular biology. The lactophenol blue staining or known as lacto phenol cotton blue (LPCB) wet mount preparation is the most widely used method of staining and observing fungi and is simple to prepare. The preparation has three components: phenol‚ which will kill any live organisms. The high concentration of the phenol deactivates lytic cellular

Some cancer prevention is based on systematic screening in order to detect small irregularities or tumors as early as possible even if there are no clear symptoms present. Breast self-examination‚ mammograms‚ testicular self-examination‚ and Pap smears are common screening methods for various cancers.
