Same Day Test Identifies Secondary Infections in COVID-19 Patients
The intensive care unit (ICU) is a dynamic environment with frequent staff-patient contact for invasive monitoring, interventions and personal care that together introduce the risk of secondary or nosocomial infection. When critically ill patients are cared for in the ICU, doctors may take deep samples from their lungs. More...02 Dec 2021
Multiplex Immunoassay Developed for Confirmation and Typing of HTLV Infections
Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Viruses (HTLV) type 1 and type 2 account for an estimated five to 10 million infections worldwide and are transmitted through breast feeding, sexual contacts and contaminated cellular blood components. More...24 Nov 2021
P-O-C Test Detects IgG Antibody in Serodiagnosis of Human Trichinellosis
Trichinellosis is one of the most critical food-borne parasitic zoonoses worldwide. Humans acquire trichinellosis by ingesting raw or undercooked meats containing the infective Trichinella larvae. Adult Trichinella spp. reside in the intestinal tract of the vertebrate host; larvae can be found encapsulated in muscle tissue. More...23 Nov 2021
Breath Test Can Identify COVID-19 in Critically Ill Patients
