Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction and is considered a major cause of health loss. However, since the current biomarkers of sepsis reflect the host’s immune response to microorganisms, they ...
The Medical City South Luzon (TMCSL) introduces MALDITOF Mass Spectrometry, becoming the first hospital in the region to offer this technology. MALDI-TOF gives physicians a faster, more precise tool ...
Do you ever wonder how researchers identify bacterial infections? Traditionally, they collect samples from the infected site, grow the bacteria in a lab, and analyze them using a method called ...
Healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) have been arising as an important cause of mortality worldwide mainly due to the increasing escalation of antimicrobial resistance 1. HCAIs are characterized ...
In a recent study published in BMC Microbiology, researchers developed the Novel Organism Verification and Analysis (NOVA) algorithm to systematically analyze bacterial isolates unidentified using ...
Bacteria are among the most diverse lifeforms on Earth, so it’s no surprise that their genomes have yielded a treasure trove of fascinating discoveries. The study of bacterial genomes has led to the ...
Researchers at Umeå University have recently developed a highly sensitive method for detecting bacterial spores—tough microorganisms that survive extreme conditions and can cause both food poisoning ...
Scientists at UMC Utrecht have developed a new technology to efficiently isolate a specific subset of gut bacteria from fecal samples that are recognized by IgA antibodies. These "IgA-coated" bacteria ...
Researchers in Japan have developed a new light-based technology that can rapidly gather thousands of bacteria into a tiny ...
Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...
Emerging drug-resistant strains are posing significant challenges to the global fight against tuberculosis (TB) and it is a critical task to detect treatment failure as early as possible. Researchers ...
