Universal microbial diagnostics using random DNA probes

Early identification of pathogens is essential for limiting development of therapy-resistant pathogens and mitigating infectious disease outbreaks. Most bacterial detection schemes use target-specific probes to differentiate pathogen species, creating time and cost inefficiencies in identifying newly discovered organisms. We present a novel universal microbial diagnostics (UMD) platform to scre...

Application of Quality Assurance Strategies in Diagnostics and Clinical Support Services in Iranian Hospitals

Background Iran has a widespread diagnostics and clinical support services (DCSS) network that plays a crucial role in providing diagnostic and clinical support services to both inpatient and outpatient care. However, very little is known on the application of quality assurance (QA) policies in DCSS units. This study explores the extent of application of eleven QA strategies in DCSS units withi...

Molecular Diagnostics in Clinical Microbiology

In the daily routine of a clinical microbiological laboratory, pathogens can be detected in several ways. Diagnostics of infectious diseases require a strategic approach, since the etiological agent can be of bacterial, viral, fungal or protozoan origin, frequently sharing an identical syndrome. A complicating factor is that the clinical sample, sent to the laboratory, can be severely contamina...
