Health: as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, as it may have limited value for implementation. Health may be defined as the ability to adapt and manage physical, mental and social challenges throughout life.
COVID 19 has resulted in diverse research needs ranging from mechanism and impact of the disease, to solutions to identify, combat or treat the disease. Cellular technologies such as flow an...
The COVID-19 pandemic is caused by a newly discovered coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. To characterize and detect this new virus, antibodies to support scientific research, diagnosis and vaccine dev...
Choosing the right solution for your laboratory’s SARS-CoV-2 testing needs can be a difficult decision. With the dynamic demand on labs, making the wrong choice could be catastrophic....
Emerging infectious diseases” are those that are rapidly increasing in incidence or geographic range. Most are zoonotic, entering the human population from other animal species. None e...
The spread of the SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic is driving an urgent need for extensive testing, including patients and health workers as a priority. The most sensitive and reliable method...
Severe COVID-19 is characterized by dramatic immune system activation and inflammation. Several studies to modulate the immune response and limit immunopathology are ongoing. To better under...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is a global pandemic that has impacted the lives of the entire world’s population. Accurate and effective testing mechanisms to identify those with...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is the primary technology used to identify genomic targets for vaccine development, detect emerging viral strains and monitor transmission patterns. Enhanced...
With more than 6 million infections and more than 300,000 deaths (as of end of May 2020), the current COVID-19 pandemic has led to large scale lockdown around the world to prevent further sp...
Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the development of diagnostics for both the virus (molecular) and the host immune response (serological) has become essential for monitoring the...
Staying informed on diagnostic tools for SARS-CoV-2 can be challenging. Because the results of the various test have different clinical implications it is important to understand the design...
With over 6.7 million cases and over 213 countries and territories affected worldwide, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has challenged the world in several ways. As the global pandemic sprea...
