Fluorescence polarization system for rapid COVID-19 diagnosis

Developing a Method for Assessing and Managing the Risk of Covid-19; Rapid Covid-19 Hazard analysis

Background and aims: Work environments are constantly changing under the influence of various factors and newer risks are introduced. Rapid changes in science and technology, increasing the complexity of the industry, increased system integration and other factors have been shown to increase total risk in the past few decades. As well, risk management becomes increasingly critical in decreasing...

Modeling of self-assessment system of covid-19 disease diagnosis using Type-2 Sugeno fuzzy inference system

Due to the continuation of the pandemic of Coronavirus in the whole world, the number of deaths has reached over one million, based on the World Health Organization reports. Early diagnosis of the illness can be great assistance in order to break the chain of disease transmission. Nowadays, COVID-19 test kits are so limited in numbers, and expensive in terms of cost, which slows down the diagno...

Fluorescence polarization immunoassay. II. Analyzer for rapid, precise measurement of fluorescence polarization with use of disposable cuvettes.

This instrument, developed for quantitating fluorescence polarization immunoassays, automatically measures both polarization components and computes a polarization value corrected for background and optical bias. An electronically switched liquid crystal provides a nonmechanical means of rotating the plane of polarization in the excitation optics. The electronic design features digital integrat...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) Immunopathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment

SARS-CoV-2 is a member of the coronaviruses family that causes the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in China in late 2019 which has exploded to a global pandemic. The reference genome of the SARS-CoV-2 is considered to be very closely related to SARS-CoV and the virus uses the ACE-2 receptor for cellular entry similar to SARS-CoV. The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, c...
