Updating viral agents in tomato seeds with new generation diagnostic technologies

Emerging viral diseases: confronting threats with new technologies.

Emerging viral diseases pose ongoing health threats, particularly in an era of globalization; however, new biomedical research technologies such as genome sequencing and structure-based vaccine and drug design have improved our ability to respond to viral threats.

Updating: Cryptococcosis Diagnostic Aspects

Currently, AIDS represents the most common risk factor for the development of cryptococcosis. Despite of rapid scale-up of antiretroviral therapy programs and global investement in HIV care over the past decade, the decline in incidende and mortality rates associated with cryptococcosis has not been commensurate. This article puts into context recent diagnostics studies and morphologies with sp...

Applications of Next-Generation Sequencing Technologies to Diagnostic Virology

Novel DNA sequencing techniques, referred to as "next-generation" sequencing (NGS), provide high speed and throughput that can produce an enormous volume of sequences with many possible applications in research and diagnostic settings. In this article, we provide an overview of the many applications of NGS in diagnostic virology. NGS techniques have been used for high-throughput whole viral gen...

Photonic Network Technologies for New Generation Network

In this paper, we show the recent progress of photonic network technologies for the new generation network (NWGN). The NWGN is based on new design concepts that look beyond the next generation network (NGN) and the Internet. The NWGN will maintain the sustainability of our prosperous civilization and help resolve various social issues and problems by the use of information and communication tec...
