Accuracy of high-risk HPV DNA PCR, p16(INK4a) immunohistochemistry or the combination of both to diagnose HPV-driven oropharyngeal cancer
These considerations highlight the importance of reliable and accurate markers to diagnose truly HPV-induced OPC. Methods The accuracy of three possible test strategies, i.e. (a) hrHPV DNA PCR (DNA), (b) ...
Antimicrobial resistance in ESBL and indicator E.coli, Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp., methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Enterococcus faecalis and faecium isolated from food and food-producing animals (primary production) in 2022
levels except for an increased resistance to erythromycin and a first detection of low chloramphenicol resistance. In 2022, 20% of the isolates were resistant to the macrolide erythromycin compared to 9% ...
Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
conventional methods in e.g. the field of pathogen detection/characterization along the food chain, starting from the food production environment (including detection of AMR genes) until foodborne outbreak ...
Redesign and Validation of a Real-Time RT-PCR to Improve Surveillance for Avian Influenza Viruses of the H9 Subtype.
