associated HUS has emerged since 2012, with 28 and 18 cases respectively reported in 2016. Four STEC- HUS food-borne outbreaks were detected (three STEC O157 linked to ground beef and raw-milk cheese and one ...
Application of whole genome data for in silico evaluation of primers and probes routinely employed for the detection of viral species by RT-qPCR using dengue virus as a case study.
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Viral infection by dengue virus is a major public health problem in tropical countries. Early diagnosis and detection are increasingly based on quantitative reverse transcriptase ...
Relationship between mold exposure, specific IgE sensitization, and clinical asthma: A case-control study.
A fumigatus and severity for patients with asthma in contrast with sensitization to other species. Indoor mold contamination was detected in approximately 90% of dwellings. Overall mold exposure was not ...
Activity-Based Detection and Bioanalytical Confirmation of a Fatal Carfentanil Intoxication.
