Researchers at Karolinska Institute have developed a novel method using DNA Nanoballs to detect pathogens, aiming to simplify nucleic acid testing and revolutionize pathogen detection. The study's ...

A new 5-year coordinated research project (CRP) on biological toxins (biotoxins) and foodborne pathogens that will start in January 2022 is now open for proposals. The CRP has a One Health perspective ...

Aerosols play a critical role in the transmission of airborne pathogens by acting as carriers that transport pathogens between the environment and humans. Timely and accurate detection of these ...

Results of the test were then compared to initial blood cultures and subsequent microbial tests. The study has enrolled 350 patients, and the Karius test identified potential pathogens in 60% of ...

The integration of proteomics into infectious disease detection represents a significant paradigm shift in clinical microbiology and public health surveillance. As global health networks confront the ...

Scientists have found a way to create artificial sugars that could lead to more accurate ways to diagnose and perhaps treat diseases. The collaboration of academic and industry scientists in Europe, ...

The transmission of infectious diseases via contaminated water continues to be a risk to public health in the United States and throughout the rest of the. world. Source and finished drinking waters ...

The system can identify the presence of E. coli or Listeria within 40-45 minutes, providing a “presence zero” result in six hours for E. coli or nine hours for Listeria. Results from traditional ...

Researchers warn ultra-sensitive pathogen tests may trigger unnecessary recalls and food waste despite trace detections posing limited health risk.
