Animal infections occur when an agent invades a host animal's tissues where it replicates and releases toxins causing disease. Some animal infections, known as zoonotic diseases, can be transferred to humans.
Tuberculosis (TB) is the No.1 cause of death due to a single infectious agent in the world today. According to the global report from World Health Organization, one third of world population...
Background and aim: Rapid and complex diagnosis of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections is highly desirable not only in clinical practice, but also in food safety or early warning syste...
BGI group has been at the forefront in the fight against covid-19. Starting from building a lab in Wuhan, sequencing first 2019-nCoV virus genome and offering RT-PCR and sequencing based det...
Scientists worldwide are actively working to tame the COVID-19 pandemic by developing therapies for patients with severe disease and a vaccine to stem transmission. Accomplishing these two g...
The following items will be discussed in this panel presentation: How samples are collected and processed to be tested in reference laboratories The Best practices in collecting respiratory...
As the outbreak of 2019 Novel Coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, makes headlines on a daily basis, molecular diagnostic firms are rapidly responding by developing tests that assist in diag...
This session introduces the keypoints in validating RT-PCR testing of SARS-CoV-2, and presents findings at a provincial center of CoVID-19 on positive rate of molecular testing from multiple...
Sean Taylor will be presenting on the following: Title: COVID-19 infection mechanism, rate of infection and tools for testing and monitoring the disease spread Abstract:Since COVID-19 was fi...
Since the outbreak of CoVID-19 in Wuhan, China last December, the medical professional community have accumulated numerous experience that potentially will benefit other regions battling the...
Humans are susceptible to many life-threatening viruses such as HIV, influenza and Ebola. The current coronavirus pandemic is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-...
The ongoing unprecedented outbreak of pneumonia caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in Wuhan, China has highlighted the necessity for readily available, accurate and rapid diagnostic...
The Year of Rat is unfortunately dominated by bats due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Although we are not 100% certain that this is a bat virus, all the evidence suggests that there is a high cha...
Learning Objectives: 1. What kind of virus is the coronavirus? Where is its greatest vulnerability and why? 2. What differentiated the HCoVs discovered in the 1960s from the SARS-CoV and MER...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is the primary technology used to identify genomic targets for vaccine development. Enhanced options for NGS on Illumina systems now make it possible to iden...
A growing body of researchers around the world is working to mount an aggressive and sustained response to the COVID-19 pandemic. By building on past successes and harnessing insights from c...
Despite FDA-approved vaccines and antivirals, seasonal and pandemic influenza remains a serious threat associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The present modalities and vaccine...
