چکیده
Laboratory evidence to support the diagnosis of an infectious disease may be based on 1 or more of the following: direct examination of specimens using microscopic or antigen detection techniques, isolation of microorganisms in culture, serologic testing, host gene expression patterns, and molecular detection of an organism, resistance determinant, or virulence factor. Additional important roles of the diagnostic microbiology lab are antimicrobial susceptibility testing to guide in the selection of the most appropriate antimicrobial therapy and supporting hospital infection prevention in the detection and characterization of pathogens associated with nosocomial infections.

متن کاملEvaluation of Genotype MTBDRsl Assay to Detect Drug Resistance Associated with Fluoroquinolones, Aminoglycosides and Ethambutol on Clinical Sediments
BACKGROUND The emergence of resistant tuberculosis (TB) is a major setback to the global control of the disease as the treatment of such resistance is complex and expensive. Use of direct detection of mutations by molecular methods could facilitate rapid diagnosis of resistance to offset diagnostic delays. We evaluated the performance of the Genotype MTBDRsl (Hain Life Sciences) for the detecti...

متن کاملDynamic behavior of GFP–CLIP-170 reveals fast protein turnover on microtubule plus ends
Microtubule (MT) plus end-tracking proteins (+TIPs) specifically recognize the ends of growing MTs. +TIPs are involved in diverse cellular processes such as cell division, cell migration, and cell polarity. Although +TIP tracking is important for these processes, the mechanisms underlying plus end specificity of mammalian +TIPs are not completely understood. Cytoplasmic linker protein 170 (CLIP...
