Journal ArticleDOI

Severe underlying liver diseases and high mortality associated with Laribacter hongkongensis bacteremia.

TL;DR: A strain of Laribacter hongkongensis isolated from the blood of a patient with fatal sepsis, who had alcoholic cirrhosis with ascites and portal hypertension, is characterized.

A multilocus sequence typing system for Penicillium marneffei: an international molecular cyber system for tracking its origin and transmission.

TL;DR: The authors' P marneffei MLST system appears to be more discriminating and more suitable for epidemiology studies than other similar systems, and non-housekeeping genes should be incorporated into theMLST system to achieve greater discriminatory power.
Journal ArticleDOI

A platform technology for generating subunit vaccines against diverse viral pathogens

TL;DR: The clamp streamlines subunit antigen production by both stabilising the immunologically important prefusion epitopes of trimeric viral fusion proteins while enabling purification without target-specific reagents by acting as an affinity tag.

CASE REPORTS Bacteremia Caused by Solobacterium moorei in a Patient with Acute Proctitis and Carcinoma of the Cervix

TL;DR: In this paper, a case of Solobacterium moorei bacteremia in a 43-year-old woman presenting with acute proctitis complicating radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma was described.

Multi-locus sequence typing scheme for Laribacter hongkongensis, a novel bacterium associated with freshwater fish-borne gastroenteritis and traveller's diarrhoea.

TL;DR: The clustering of fish and human isolates into different groups observed previously using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and the present MLST studies suggest that some clones of L hongkongensis are more virulent than others.
