A nucleic acid based test for the detection of the economically important plant virus Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) based on the Luminex xTAG technology was developed.
Results demonstrating that peripheral blood can be used to develop a gene expression based test for early detection of breast cancer will be presented.
Since 1999, the European Commission (EC) authorized the evaluation and approval of 20 molecular based tests for the rapid detection of the pathological prion protein (PrPsc) in BSE infection.
Xpert is an integrated specimen processing and nucleic acid amplification-based test for detection of M. tuberculosis and rifampin resistance and offers results within hours.
PCR based test showed improved detection of fungal aetiology in microbial keratitis.
We suggest that the delays in obtaining results from the direct Etest and the lack of robustness and inconvenience of the in-house phage based test preclude their application for detection of drug resistant tuberculosis in a clinical setting.
MR imaging with gadolinium chelates offers an accurate non-radiation based imaging test for detection of liver metastases.
A wide area measurement system (WAMS) based test platform is developed for transient stability detection and control.
According to existing research achievements, a WAMS based test platform is developed for power system transient instability detection and control.
Furthermore, four screening tests for the rapid detection of scrapie in small ruminants were applied consistently throughout the EU during 2003: two Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assays (ELISA) tests, a luminescence immunoassay test and a Western-blot based test.
