Methods for selecting tag-oligonucleotide sequences for use in an in vitro nucleic acid assay. The selected tag sequences are useful for nucleic acid assay wherein interference between the nucleic acid sequences is the assay is to be controlled. Selected tag sequences are incorporated into nucleic acid assay to improve the performance of and/or minimize any interference between nucleic acids in the assay compared to untagged assays.

The invention provides methods of increasing immune response by inducing iron-dependent cellular disassembly. The increase in immune response may be used, for example, for treatment of infection or cancer. The invention also provides screening assays for identification of compounds that induce iron-dependent cellular disassembly and are also immunostimulatory agents. The invention further provides methods for identifying immunostimulatory agents produced by cells undergoing iron-dependent cellular disassembly.

Compositions which are fragrant and contain at least a member set culled from a library of compositions, each being comprised of sub-combinations of selected terpenes. Fragrances that mimic that of various states of organic and synthetic aromatics including products, processes and those from non-combusted plant products, among other things, uniquitous products, processes, medicinals, and related moieties leverage databases of all known terpene groupings are offered for consideration, and have been provided, according to the instant teachings.
