This is a rapid immunochemical test that involves an enzyme (a protein that catalyzes a biochemical reaction). It also involves an antibody or... Genetic Diseases The definition of a genetic disease is a disorde
HIV testing is part of routine medical practice similar to tests that screen for other diseases. The CDC recommends a routine HIV test for all adolescent and adult patients aged 13 to 64 in all health care settings, in all cases of pregnancy, and all newborns of those with HIV at the tim...
Now, hospitals use CDSSs for numerous tasks, from generating alerts to drug control to ordering tests. Decision support solutions come in a number of versions. They can be either standalone tools or integrated parts of larger infrastructures — such as anElectronic Health Record (EHR)or a Compu...
Methods: We worked with 3480 samples of vagino-rectal swabs of women with 35–37 weeks of gestation. The identification of the strains was carried out using conventional biochemical tests and group confirmatory serology using a commercial latex particle agglutination kit. Two hundred GBS strains ...
The biochemical and histopathological effects of co-administered taxifolin on tramadol-induced liver damage in rats were the focus of this experimental study. The rats were classified into three groups for the experiment: the control group (CG), a group receiving tramadol only (TRG), and a group...
Chromosome analysis (including FISH) and aCGH/MLPA of the mother needs to be performed when a deletion of GPC3 is detected in the affected child. Molecular tests looking for point mutations through sequencing methods (Sanger, NGS, etc.) should be warranted for every mother of molecularly-...
The biochemical effector molecules in cells are proteins, and their direct measurement is, therefore, in principle preferable over the inference of protein quantities from transcript measurements (expression arrays and RNA sequencing). However, the commonly used proteomic approaches based on mass ...
Blood tests:While routine blood tests alone cannot diagnose lung cancer, they may reveal biochemical or metabolic abnormalities in the body that accompany cancer. For example, elevated levels of calcium or the enzymealkaline phosphatasemay accompany cancer that is metastatic to the bones. Likewise, el...

Historically, it had been subcategorized into three types (types I, II, and III) based on biochemical manifestations [1], [2]. However, after the discovery of the gene responsible for type II, SLC25A13 [3], the classification of citrullinemia has been changed to types I (CTLN1, MIM ...
