76 Hymas, Weston C.; Hillyard, David R.Real time RT-PCR assay for norovirus detection with eclipse probes and a non-competitive internal control.Noroviruses are the major causative agents of nonbacterial gastroenteritis worldwide and are estimated to cause approximately 23 million cases in the United States annually. Real time RT-PCR is rapidly becoming the principle diagnostic means for norovirus detection due to its enhanced sensitivity an...Gastroenteritis; Eclipse Hybridization Probes; Norovirus2005-05-03
77 Petti, Cathy A.Role of the laboratory in diagnosis of influenza during seasonal epidemics and potential pandemicsLaboratory diagnosis of influenza is critical to its treatment and surveillance. With the emergence of novel and highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, the role of the laboratory has been further extended to include isolation and subtyping of the virus to monitor its appearance and facilitate ap...Antibodies, Viral; Antigens, Viral; RNA, Viral2006
78 Jaskowski, Troy D.Screening for antinuclear antibodies by enzyme immunoassayIndirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) is the most widely used method in clinical laboratories to screen for autoantibodies against a wide variety of nuclear antigens. Recently, a number of antinuclear antibody (ANA) enzyme immunoassay (EIA) screens have become commercially available and claim to be an...Antinuclear antibodies; Enzyme immunoassay1996
79 Cloud, Joann L.; Dunn, Jim; Hoggan, Karen; Wilson, Deborah; Iwen, Peter; Lasala, Paul; Hall, Geri; Woods, Gail L.Sequence-based identification of gram negative nonfermenters using commercial 16S rDNA databasesThis poster presents a study assessing the validity of the databases from two commercial systems were compared for the identification of NF. Background: Identification of gram negative nonfermenters (NF) from cultured human specimens is often difficult using traditional phenotypic methods. Partial 1...MicroSeq500; Virodec2005-08-29
80 Aldous, Wade K.; Hymas, Weston C.; Stevenson, Jeffery B.; Taggart, Edward W.;Hillyard, David R.Single tube real-time RT-PCR Assay for the detection of enterovirusWe developed a rapid and sensitive method for the routine detection of enterovirus in CSF and plasma using a one tube, one step, real-time PCR assay. A primer set and an Eclipse probe were designed to target the highly conserved 5' untranslated region of the enterovirus genome. This assay was compar...MGB Eclipse; Viral RNA; Picornaviridae2004-09-11
81 Roberts, William L.Specificity characteristics of 7 commercial creatinine measurement procedures by enzymatic and jaffe method principlesStandardized calibration does not change a creatinine measurement procedure?s susceptibility to potentially interfering substances.2012
82 Dwight, Zachary LawrenceuAnalyze: web-based high-resolution DNA melting analysis with comparison to thermodynamic predictionsAbstract-uAnalyzeSM is a web-based tool for analyzing high-resolution melting data of PCR products. PCR product sequence is input by the user and recursive nearest neighbor thermodynamic calculations used to predict a melting curve similar to uMELT (http://www.dna.utah.edu/umelt/umelt.html). Unproce...2012-01-01
83 Hymas, Weston C.Ultrasonic enhancement of antibiotic action on several species of bacteriaThe effect of the antibiotics gentamicin, streptomycin, kanamycin, tetracycline, and ampicillin on planktonic cultures of Enterobacter aerogenes, Serratia marcescens, Salmonella derby, Streptococcus mitis, and Staphylococcus epidermidis with and without an application of 70 kHz ultrasound was studi...Enterobacter aerogenes; Serratia marcescens; Salmonella derby; Streptococcus mitis; Staphylococcus epidermidis; Planktonic cultures; Gentamicin; Streptomycin; Kanamycin; Tetracycline; Ampicillin; Ultrasonic enhancement; Bioacoustic effect1998
84 Dwight, Zachary LawrenceuMELT: prediction of high-resolution melting curves and dynamic melting profiles of PCR products in a rich web applicationuMeltSM is a flexible web-based tool for predicting DNA melting curves and denaturation profiles of PCR products. The user defines an amplicon sequence and chooses a set of thermodynamic and experimental parameters that include nearest-neighbor stacking energies, loop entropy effects, cation (mono...2011
