Microbial detection and identification methods
Rising numbers of infectious diseases and growing outbreaks of epidemics require us to be more effective in microbial identification, especially for pathogens. However, microbiome samples are very challenging and require high-quality molecular methods for accurate identification of a particular organism, antimicrobial resistance genes or virulence genes in a microbial population. Here, you can explore the latest research and helpful tools for species-level detection in human health, environmental monitoring, or agricultural and industrial applications.
