Real - Time Metagenomics
In the last few years a new technology called metagenomics has revolutionized biology. This technique allows biologists to sequence the DNA (genetic makeup) of all the organisms in an environment. The Real-Time Metagenomics project provides biologists with a variety of tools to annotate metagenomes using web 2.0 technology, including web services (RTMg.web), Google’s Android cell phone operatin...
متن کاملRapid Qualitative Urinary Tract Infection Pathogen Identification by SeptiFast® Real-Time PCR
BACKGROUND Urinary tract infections (UTI) are frequent in outpatients. Fast pathogen identification is mandatory for shortening the time of discomfort and preventing serious complications. Urine culture needs up to 48 hours until pathogen identification. Consequently, the initial antibiotic regimen is empirical. AIM To evaluate the feasibility of qualitative urine pathogen identification by a...
متن کاملReal Time Metagenomics: Using k-mers to annotate metagenomes
Annotation of metagenomes involves comparing the individual sequence reads with a database of known sequences and assigning a unique function to each read. This is a time-consuming task that is computationally intensive (though not computationally complex). Here we present a novel approach to annotate metagenomes using unique k-mer oligopeptide sequences from 7 to 12 amino acids long. We demons...
متن کاملMicrochip-based one step DNA extraction and real-time PCR in one chamber for rapid pathogen identification.
Optimal detection of a pathogen present in biological samples depends on the ability to extract DNA molecules rapidly and efficiently. In this paper, we report a novel method for efficient DNA extraction and subsequent real-time detection in a single microchip by combining laser irradiation and magnetic beads. By using a 808 nm laser and carboxyl-terminated magnetic beads, we demonstrate that a...
متن کاملReal-Time Building Information Modeling (BIM) Synchronization Using Radio Frequency Identification Technology and Cloud Computing System
The online observation of a construction site and processes bears significant advantage to all business sector. BIM is the combination of a 3D model of the project and a project-planning program which improves the project planning model by up to 6D (Adding Time, Cost and Material Information dimensions to the model). RFID technology is an appropriate information synchronization tool between the...
