Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory diagnosis of melioidosis: past, present and future.

TL;DR: Advances in bacterial identification and metabolomics may offer a novel approach for exploring potential diagnostic biomarkers in melioidosis, and culture supernatants can be potentially distinguished from those of related bacterial species including B. thailandensis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A sensitive and specific antigen detection assay for Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus.

TL;DR: A highly sensitive and specific MAbs-based antigen capture ELISA has been developed for MERS and should be useful for detection of MERS-CoV in human and dromedaries and in field studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyogenic liver abscesses caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae: US appearance and aspiration findings.

TL;DR: K pneumoniae liver abscess is associated with a much smaller quantity of pus at initial aspiration, and a predominantly solid appearance at US isassociated with K pneumoniae monomicrobial liverAbscess.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wild type and mutant 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) viruses cause more severe disease and higher mortality in pregnant BALB/c mice.

TL;DR: The adverse effect of this pandemic virus on maternal and fetal outcome is largely related to the severe pulmonary disease and the indirect effect of inflammatory cytokine spillover into the systemic circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

D225G mutation in hemagglutinin of pandemic influenza H1N1 (2009) virus enhances virulence in mice

TL;DR: Significantly higher viral titers and elevated proinflammatory cytokines in lung homogenates of mice infected with the mutant virus were found, which were compatible with severe histopathological changes of pneumonitis.
