Molecular bacteriology: a diagnostic tool for the millennium.
From a practical viewpoint, clinical bacteriology can be subdivided into three main activities. First and foremost is detection, isolation, and identification of pathogens. This is usually achieved by culture of specimens on specific media in defined conditions, accompanied by microscopy and tests of biochemical activity of an isolate. Second is the determination of antibiotic susceptibility, a...

Background: Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women demanding accurate diagnosis to take remedial measures to treat.Objective: Comparing the diagnostic capability of the computer regulation thermography (CRT), as a novel and safe diagnostic procedure, with common methods including sonography, mammography and clinical examinations for diagnosing breast cancer in suspicious...
متن کاملConsiderations for digital PCR as an accurate molecular diagnostic tool.
BACKGROUND Digital PCR (dPCR) is an increasingly popular manifestation of PCR that offers a number of unique advantages when applied to preclinical research, particularly when used to detect rare mutations and in the precise quantification of nucleic acids. As is common with many new research methods, the application of dPCR to potential clinical scenarios is also being increasingly described. ...
متن کاملDiagnostic, Predictive, Prognostic, and Therapeutic Molecular Biomarkers in Third Millennium: A Breakthrough in Gastric Cancer
Introduction Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer and the third cause of cancer death. The clinical outcomes of the patients are still not encouraging with a low rate of 5 years' survival. Often the disease is diagnosed at advanced stages and this obviously negatively affects patients outcomes. A deep understanding of molecular basis of gastric cancer can lead to the identification of...
متن کاملUse of the diagnostic bacteriology laboratory: a practical review for the clinician.
EVective utilisation and understanding of the clinical bacteriology laboratory can greatly aid in the diagnosis of infectious diseases. Although described more than a century ago, the Gram stain remains the most frequently used rapid diagnostic test, and in conjunction with various biochemical tests is the cornerstone of the clinical laboratory. First described by Danish pathologist Christian G...
