Ovine footrot is a highly contagious foot disease caused by the gram-negative bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus). In a recent report, we showed a prevalence of 42.9% D. nodosus positive swabs across Germany. In this follow-up study, we used rea
High-risk HPV templates containing the 14 genotypes were the positive control, and RNAse/DNAse-free water was the negative control, both were included in each PCR run. Statistical methods Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS advanced statistics (Statistical Package for Social Sciences), version 27 (...
albicans followed by either survival rate monitoring/recording every 12 h for up to 2 weeks or sacrifice 24 h post infection for assessment of fungal burdens in organs. Tofacitinib (15 mg/kg), and PBS as control, was intraperitoneal injected twice a day after the infection. For ...
gDNA of P. vivax was used as a positive control template for amplifying gene encoding Plasmodium 18 s rRNA and msp1. Additional file 3: Figure S3. Liver-stage infection of P. vivax in liver organoid. (A) Confocal microscopic observation of P. vivax UIS4, a protein located in parasito...
However, during the development of HPV-associated carcinoma, high-risk HPVs are able to influence cell cycle control mechanisms, leading to tumorigenesis (Steenbergen et al. 1996). Thus, HPV-infected target cells associated with oropharyngeal carcinogenesis are likely undifferentiated, multiplying cells,...
No template control and unspiked sputum sample did not produce significant fungal read yields. (B) Mean A. fumigatus counts displayed a linear relationship with amount of spiked A. fumigatus (error bars indicated standard error). R2 value for linear relationship is indicated Full size image Assay...
DS was used as a positive control for the cell-free confirmatory assay. The non-infected cell control (mock) and the untreated HIV-1 infected cells (Virus control or VC) were included in the anti-HIV-1 assays. The preinstalled software of the Perkin Elmer multimode Luminometer system ...
Throughout the pandemic, KCEMS followed infection prevention and control practices recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which included protocols for personal protective equipment and screening and care of patients at risk for acute COVID-19. Clinical protocols for resuscitation ...

[23]. However, after the application of the appropriate analytical thresholds, all spiked samples were negative for any non-targeted species. Similarly, all the non-template control samples were negative for any bacterial species. The introduction of an enrichment phase as part of the‘5mL quick-...
