Free DNA – new potential analyte in clinical laboratory diagnostics?
The existence of cell free DNA in the human circulatory system has been known since the 1950s, however, intensive research in this area has been conducted for the last ten years. This review paper brings a short overview of the existing literature concerning the cell free DNA research in various clinical fields and pathological states and considers the application possibilities of this new anal...
متن کاملNew clinical and laboratory finding in anti-phospholipid syndromes
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune disease with the appearance of anti-phospholipid antibody (ACLA), Anti β2GPI and lupus anticoagulant (LAC) in serum. The antigen-antibody reaction on cell surface leads to thrombosis, miscarriage and inflammation. Clinical findings are diverse and include thrombosis in veins and arteries, pregnancy loss, thrombocytopenia, neurological and...
متن کاملClinical Laboratory Diagnostics for Mycobacterium tuberculosis
This chapter highlights current state-of-the-art methods for the detection and identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) complex in the clinical diagnostic laboratory. Methods discussed include stain and culture which traditionally would have been followed by phenotypic-based identification methods. At this point in time however, molecular methods are considered the gold standard for b...
متن کاملThe Clinical and Health Economic Value of Clinical Laboratory Diagnostics
The ultimate goal of diagnostic testing is to guide disease management in order to improve patient outcomes and patient well-being. Patient populations are rarely homogenous and accurate diagnostic tests can dissect the patient population and identify those patients with similar symptoms but very different underlying pathophysiology that will respond differently to different treatments. This st...
متن کاملAdvances in real-time PCR: application to clinical laboratory diagnostics.
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has become one of the most important tools in molecular diagnostics, providing exquisite sensitivity and specificity for detection of nucleic acid targets. Real-time monitoring of PCR has simplified and accelerated PCR laboratory procedures and has increased information obtained from specimens including routine quantification and differentiation of amplificat...
