This application note explores how an innovative panel provides a comprehensive tool for infectious disease research and ...

Could they have infected each other? Only understanding each person’s unique viral RNA sequence could answer that question. The standard test to determine whether someone is infected with the ...

Amplicon-based sequencing approaches have been widely adopted for routine microbiology applications, including targeted 16S rRNA for bacterial taxonomic classification and tiled multiplex PCR for ...

Bats carry viral pathogens that typically do not lead to severe disease in the bats themselves but can be lethal to humans. Adaptations in certain immune genes might contribute to this resistance.

This precision ensures that patients get the proper treatment and helps to avoid misdiagnosis, which is especially important ...

Scientists at the Center for Infection and Immunity at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health report a breakthrough genetic testing method called the Virome-Capture-Sequencing ...

Scientists at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research have discovered how a viral infection causes autoimmune disease, disproving a long-standing theory and opening a promising new approach to ...

it can be replaced by another siRNA that targets a different viral sequence. Finally, unlike many chemical antiviral compounds siRNAs are easily soluble in water. [43] Gene silencing techniques ...

A professional illustrator named Uday Mohite created a hypothetical storyboard to visually explain the possible sequence of ...
