Molecular epidemiology of nosocomial rotavirus infection.
The molecular epidemiology of nosocomial rotavirus infection in children admitted to the paediatric ward of a large hospital in southern India was studied by transmission electron microscopy and RNA electrophoresis on stool samples. Six hundred and twenty-six samples were collected and rotaviruses were detected in 35 of them. A predominant electropherotype was found in all the samples, and ther...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of apparent outbreak of invasive aspergillosis in a hematology ward.
During a 2-month period, five patients suffering from invasive infections caused by Aspergillus flavus or Aspergillus fumigatus were identified in the Hematology Department of the University Hospital Dijkzigt (Rotterdam, The Netherlands). To study the epidemiological aspects of invasive aspergillosis, strains from these patients and from the hospital environment, isolated during extensive micro...
متن کاملMolecular approaches to diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis what we know and what we do not know.
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) are a major complication in immunocompromized patients where can be serious and rapidly fatal. Early diagnosis and early appropriate antifungal treatment is important in reducing mortality and morbidity. But despite many efforts to develop detection methods, the diagnosis of IA still remains challenging and current conventional methods are limited for adequate diagno...
متن کاملNosocomial aspergillosis is waterborne.
Nosocomial invasive aspergillosis can cause life-threatening infections among immunosuppressed patients and is thought to be primarily airborne. Despite the use of appropriate hospital air filtration systems, however, the incidence of this infection continues to increase. In this article, we present our hypothesis, which is that nosocomial aspergillosis can be airborne from a water source in th...
متن کامل[Molecular markers: an important tool in the diagnosis, treatment and epidemiology of invasive aspergillosis].
Increase in the incidence of invasive aspergillosis has represented a difficult problem for management of patients with this infection due to its high rate of mortality, limited knowledge concerning its diagnosis, and therapeutic practice. The difficulty in management of patients with aspergillosis initiates with detection of the fungus in the specimens of immunosuppressed patients infected wit...
