Smartphone-Based DNA Diagnostics Detects Malaria
There remains a substantial burden from infectious disease in low-resource rural communities, not least as a consequence of malaria. In infectious disease diagnosis, results need to be communicated rapidly to healthcare professionals once testing has been completed so that care pathways can be implemented. More...16 Aug 2021
Paper-Based Dengue NS1 Rapid Diagnostic Test Validated
Dengue virus (DENV) infection is one of the world’s most important neglected tropical diseases and the fastest spreading mosquito-borne disease. About 70% of the 3.9 billion people at risk live in Asian Pacific countries, mainly in Southeast Asia. More...06 Aug 2021
Fluorescent Reagents Evaluated for Vulvovaginal Candidiasis Diagnosis
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common vaginitis in females, which is estimated to be the second most common cause of vaginitis after bacterial vaginosis. Vulvovaginal candidiasis affects around 70%–75% of all women during their childbearing age, and is considered to be an important public health problem. More...29 Jul 2021
T-Cell CD27 Expression Assessed for Smear-Negative Tuberculosis
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and its related disease tuberculosis (TB) are infectious diseases with a worldwide focus. Although both vaccines and anti-TB drugs are available, there is a global focus on illness diagnosis in smear-negative and latent tuberculosis infectious populations (SN-TB and LTBI).
