2. 1. Genome sequencing. Analysis of pathogenicity factors in hereditary and bacterial diseases

   Author : Joakim Westberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : genome sequencing; DNA sequencing; dye-terminator; solid-phase; de novo mutation detection; Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC; mycoplasma; CBPP; properdin; insertion sequence; ISMmy1;

   Abstract : With a metal removal process based on precipitation aimed atthe purification of pulping effluent as a starting point, theinfluence of carboxylic acids on calcium carbonateprecipitation has been studied. The chosen carboxylic acids canact as more or less strong complexing agents for aqueouscalcium, just as many compounds found in pulping liquors. READ MORE

   Abstract : Diagnostic tests based on nucleic acid amplification have become available for Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) and influenza viruses. Here, an MP PCR test detected 100% of infections during the first three symptomatic weeks, whereas classical serology detected 21% week 1, 56% week 2, and 100% week 3. READ MORE

6. 4. Detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Mycoplasma genitalium by genetic and serological methods

   Abstract : Chlamydia trachomatis infections are associated with a spectrum of clinical diseases including urethritis, prostatitis and epididymitis among men and cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), with an increased risk of infertility and ectopic pregnancy (EP), among women. In the search for other pathogens causing urethritis, Mycoplasma genitalium was isolated from urethral specimens from two men with acute urethritis (1980). READ MORE

   Abstract : Chlamydia and gonorrhea are major causes of sexually transmitted infections (STI) in adolescents worldwide. The infections are caused by Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria gonorrhoeae, bacteria with clinical manifestations such as urethritis, prostatitis and epididymitis among men, and urethritis, cervicitis and upper genital tract infection (i.e. READ MORE
