Advances in clinical laboratory techniques and molecular analysis are reshaping our approach to therapy and diagnosis. Explore emerging diagnostic technology and the latest insights in the microbial community in these webinars.
The laboratory diagnosis of infectious diseases has traditionally relied on recovery of pathogens in cultures and for many infections, this approach remains the standard of care. The developm...
Rapid, inexpensive, and sensitive nucleic acid detection may aid point-of-care pathogen detection, genotyping, and disease monitoring. We combine the RNA- targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 with...
Historically single cell isolation techniques suffered from poor efficiency, low recovery and difficult automation, among other limitations. This presentation will highlight cellenONE, a piez...
The clinical laboratory for in vitro diagnostics is facing pressure these days to keep costs down whilst pressure increases to provide high quality services for more samples. Typically, clin...
DATE: September 25, 2019TIME: 9:00am PDTThis webinar will explore how VIDAS® B•R•A•H•M•S PCTTM (procalcitonin) and BIOFIRE® FILMARRAY® Respiratory P...
Decades of innovation have brought us into a new era of mass spectrometry with the design of Agilent’s revolutionary Triple Quadrupole LC/MS. Ultivo is packed full of the same power and...
In spite of significant progress in disease diagnosis and treatment, racial and ethnic minorities experience lower quality of care and poorer outcomes for certain conditions than non-minorit...
Genetic biomarkers have become increasingly important for disease prediction, early disease detection and progression, and options for intervention. Tumor biopsies are commonly used as sourc...
Transcriptional profiling of the tumor microenvironment can lead to insights about the interaction between the tumor and immune system. This facilitates investigation of immune evasion mechan...
DATA: 19 de agosto, 2020 Horário: às 15:00 horas Desde que foi detectado pela primeira vez em Wuhan, China, em 2019, o novo coronavírus SARS-CoV-2 e a doença que...
Interference in laboratory assays is a concern since it can positively or negatively influence test results, which can affect patient care. Interferents could be endogenous or exogenous comp...
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a key analyte for liquid biopsy samples. Due to extremely low concentration and high degree of fragmentation, the extraction of cfDNA is technically challenging. Her...
While chemiluminescence has been the traditional approach to western blot detection, this strategy is being progressively supplemented or replaced with fluorescence-based detection. With the...
Standards setting is an important process for improving forensic science. Guidelines, minimum practice and best standards all have their place in forensic toxicology. This lecture will focus...
Free 25OH Vitamin D has received increasing attention over the last four years. More and more studies support the importance of free 25OH Vitamin D, suggesting that this fraction of 25OH Vita...
Myeloid leukemias encompass a group of different diseases that include myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These diseases are d...
Novel psychoactive substances (NPS) emerged in the United States around 2000. Initially, synthetic cannabinoids and stimulants prevailed. Now, designer opioids, benzodiazepines an...
To achieve clear and accurate resolution of protein bands in protein gel electrophoresis, it is important to use the appropriate sample preparation conditions and to choose the right gel chem...
Testing volumes need to increase by orders of magnitude in order to restore communities back to normality. This workshop focuses on solutions that equip laboratories to participate in expand...
To ensure the immune system’s balance between the recognition of non-self and the prevention of autoimmunity, the activity of immune cells needs to be strictly controlled. During the pr...
The advent of next generation sequencing has transformed the way we identify mutations with clinical implications. As the compendium of variants expands, gathering the most current and accura...
The role of the microbiology laboratory in the processing of positive patient blood cultures has become more complicated with the increasing demand for rapid information to assist in the mana...
Part 1: Sustainable health and laboratory medicine; Presented by Professor Damien GrusonSummary: PendingPart 2: Let’s talk about errors in point of care testing in mobile health...
