Fomsgaard,Line Nielsen,Alonzo Alfaro-Núñez,Søren Michael Karst,Shila Mortensen,Morten Rasmussen,Ria Lassaunière,Maiken Worsøe Rosenstierne,Charlotta Polacek,Jannik Fonager,Arieh Cohen,Claus Nielsen,Anders Fomsgaard +17 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors presented two flexible reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) platforms for small and large-scale screening to detect SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular diversity of dragonflies in three high‐elevation Andean tropical lakes through DNA barcoding
Rodrigo Chiriboga‐Ortega,Christine Van der heyden,Maria Eugenia Sulen Burgos,Sania Ortega,Tania Oña,Elizabeth Velarde,Peter Goethals,Alonzo Alfaro-Núñez,Alonzo Alfaro-Núñez +8 more
TL;DR: Genetic and morphological identification of dragonflies' larvae species in three high‐elevation Andean tropical lakes was done using DNA barcoding of the cytochrome oxidase 1 gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny and latitudinal biogeography of the Papillomaviridae Family
TL;DR: The phylogenetic analyses largely support the taxonomic division into major papillomavirus genera (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Lambda, Xi, Upsilon and Chi papilomaviruses), as reported in previous studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and phylogenetic characterization based on DNA sequences from RNA ribosomal genes of thermophilic microorganisms in a high elevation Andean tropical geothermal spring
Roque Rivas-Párraga,Andres Izquierdo,Karen Sánchez,Darío R. Bolaños-Guerrón,Alonzo Alfaro-Núñez +4 more
TL;DR: This study represents one of the first extensive molecular characterizations of extremophile microbes in the Tropical Equatorial Andes with isolated thermophilic bacteria, microalgae and fungi characterized and identified.
Posted ContentDOI
Long stability of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in dry and saliva swab samples stored for diagnostics, Denmark
Alonzo Alfaro-Núñez,Crone S,Shila Mortensen,Worsøe Rosenstierne M,Anna S. Fomsgaard,Ellinor Marving,Sofie Holdflod Nielsen,Jørgensen Mgp,Arieh Cohen,Claus Nielsen +9 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that swabs specimens can be stored at -20C and +4C for up to 26 days without affecting RT-qPCR results.
