Methods Explored for Gram-Negative Non-Fermentative Bacteria ID
The non-fermentative Gram-negative bacteria are widely distributed in the environment and have become increasingly common isolates in the clinical laboratory. Being ubiquitous in nature, they are often disregarded as contaminants. More...26 Oct 2019
Trial Finds High Analytical Performance in Whole-Genome Sequencing
Genetic diseases are a leading cause of infant mortality particularly among infants admitted to neonatal, pediatric, and cardiovascular intensive care units (ICUs). Disease progression can be extremely rapid in infants, necessitating early etiologic diagnosis in order to inform interventions that can lessen suffering, morbidity, and mortality. More...26 Oct 2019
Lynch Syndrome Screening by IHC Leads to Mutation Studies
Lynch syndrome or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer is an autosomal dominant genetic condition that is associated with a high risk of colon cancer, as well as other cancers including endometrial cancer, ovary, stomach, small intestine, hepatobiliary tract, upper urinary tract, brain, and skin.
