Development of multiplex loop-mediated isothermal amplification assays to detect medically important yeasts in dairy products.
Rapid detection of yeast contamination is important in the food industry. We have developed loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays to detect the emerging opportunistic pathogenic yeasts: Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, the Candida parapsilosis group, Trichosporon asahii, and Trichosporon mucoides. These yeasts may cause deep-seated candidiasis or trichospor...
متن کاملIdentifying Recent HIV Infections: From Serological Assays to Genomics
In this paper, we review serological and molecular based methods to identify HIV infection recency. The accurate identification of recent HIV infection continues to be an important research area and has implications for HIV prevention and treatment interventions. Longitudinal cohorts that follow HIV negative individuals over time are the current gold standard approach, but they are logistically...
متن کاملA Combination of Serological Assays to Detect Human Antibodies to the Avian Influenza A H7N9 Virus
Human infection with avian influenza A H7N9 virus was first identified in March 2013 and represents an ongoing threat to public health. There is a need to optimize serological methods for this new influenza virus. Here, we compared the sensitivity and specificity of the hemagglutinin inhibition (HI), microneutralization (MN), and Western blot (WB) assays for the detection of human antibodies ag...
متن کاملSerological Surveillance Development for Tropical Infectious Diseases Using Simultaneous Microsphere-Based Multiplex Assays and Finite Mixture Models
BACKGROUND A strategy to combat infectious diseases, including neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), will depend on the development of reliable epidemiological surveillance methods. To establish a simple and practical seroprevalence detection system, we developed a microsphere-based multiplex immunoassay system and evaluated utility using samples obtained in Kenya. METHODS We developed a micros...
متن کاملConstructing STR multiplex assays.
Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) refers to the simultaneous amplification of multiple regions of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) using PCR. Commercial short tandem repeat (STR) assays that can coamplify as many as 16 different loci have become widely used in forensic DNA typing. This chapter will focus on some of the aspects of constructing robust STR multiplex assays, including careful de...
