RT-LAMP Used to Genotype and Diagnose Chikungunya
Chikungunya virus has re-emerged as an important pathogen causing several outbreaks in the world. As the clinical symptoms of chikungunya are similar to other mosquito-borne febrile diseases, the definitive diagnosis of the disease is based on the detection of viral genome from the patient blood.

Clinical Metagenomic Sequencing Improves Diagnosis of Neurological Infections
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a promising approach for the diagnosis of infectious disease because a comprehensive spectrum of potential causes, viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic, can be identified by a single assay. More...26 Jun 2019

Cholera Diagnosed from Dried Spotted Filter Paper
Cholera outbreaks can rapidly induce high death tolls by overwhelming the capacity of health facilities, especially in remote areas or areas of civil unrest. Global estimates for cholera annually approximate four million cases worldwide with 95,000 deaths. More...20 Jun 2019
Novel Methylated DNA Markers Assay Detects Cancer
An estimated 56,770 people will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the U.S. in 2019, and more than 45,750 will die from the disease. Pancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S. and is expected to become the second leading cause by 2020. More...20 Jun 2019
