Strategy and Performance Evaluation of Low-Frequency Variant Calling for SARS-CoV-2 Using Targeted Deep Illumina Sequencing
approach and Illumina sequencing. As anticipated, higher variation and lower sensitivity were observed at lower coverages and allelic frequencies. We found that detection of all low-frequency variants at an ...
Reliability of Morphological and PCR Methods for the Official Diagnosis of Aethina tumida (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae): A European Inter-Laboratory Comparison.
Laboratories in Europe participated in the study and analysed 12 samples with adult coleopterans and insect larvae. The performance of the laboratories was evaluated in terms of sensitivity and specificity ...
Retrospective evaluation of routine whole genome sequencing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at the Belgian National Reference Center, 2019.
MTB strains analyzed in 2019 (n = 306). RESULTS: In all cases, the WGS-based procedure was able to identify correctly the MTB species. Compared to MGIT drug susceptibility testing (DST), the sensitivity ...
Strategy to Develop and Evaluate a Multiplex RT-ddPCR in Response to SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Evolution.
such as specificity, sensitivity and applicability. Therefore, a duplex reverse-transcription droplet digital PCR (RT-ddPCR) method was evaluated in silico by using 154 489 whole-genome sequences of ...
Quantitative decision making in animal health surveillance: Bovine Tuberculosis Surveillance in Belgium as case study.
used to simulate the current surveillance system’s expected performance in terms of detection sensitivity and specificity. These results were then descriptively compared with observed field results. ...
Development of a real-time PCR marker targeting a new unauthorized genetically modified microorganism producing protease identified by DNA walking
developed to target specifically the newly discovered GMM, namely GMM protease2. The performance of the real-time PCR marker was assessed in terms of specificity and sensitivity. The applicability of the ...
Validation of TaqMan-Based Assays for Specific Detection and Differentiation of Wild-Type and Neethling Vaccine Strains of LSDV.
able to distinguish Neethling-based LAV s and wild-type LSDV were developed. Upon validation, both assays were shown to have high sensitivity and specificity with a diagnostic performance comparable to ...
Selection and use of reference panels: a case study highlighting current gaps in the materials available for foot and mouth disease.
are required. These are to: reduce bias in estimates of the diagnostic sensitivity and inter-serotypic specificity of tests used to detect diverse strains of FMD virus (FMDV), provide bio-safe positive ...
A molecular assay for rapidly distinguishing the AviPro SALMONELLA VAC T vaccine strain from wild-type field isolates
This molecular test is able to distinguish both Salmonella ser. Typhimurium types with 100% sensitivity and specificity within one working day. Health Topics: Salmonellosis Salmonellose Salmonellose ...
Selection and use of reference panels: a case study highlighting current gaps in the materials available for foot and mouth disease
an example, this review highlights four specific areas where new reference reagents are required. These are to: reduce bias in estimates of the diagnostic sensitivity and inter-serotypic specificity of ...
