"We are moving into a new era where we can actually use molecular methods to detect with much more sensitivity the pathogens in stools.
"In subsequent years, the investigators did not fully exploit molecular methods to identify and characterize" anthrax samples, the report said.
For the microbial work, Sogin used molecular methods to "count" the microbes-sequencing the DNA and seeing how many different versions of a gene existed in a sample.
The efficacy of molecular methods to determine the bacterial origin of meningitis remains to be evaluated if a rapid test is developed [2].
Molecular methods to differentiate serotypes, mating types and molecular types of Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are important tools to understand epidemiology and pathogenesis of these pathogens.
In order to improve the detection of MTBC infection in NHP colonies we propose new screening protocols that incorporate molecular methods to detect mycobacteria.
Use of molecular methods to define phylogeny helps to understand the interrelationship among the members of the anophelines and elucidate the ambiguity that has arisen from improper classification.
There are several molecular methods to detect PLRV including polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Multiplex AmpliDet RNA and double antibody sandwich ELISA (DAS-ELISA).
This approach depends on identification of the epitopes recognized by protective conventional monoclonal Abs (mAbs) and the subsequent use of structural, bioinformatics, and molecular methods to design immunogens that will induce polyclonal Abs similar to the originally identified protective mAbs.
Because species of FGSC were established based on the molecular characteristics and cannot be identified through the morphological characteristics (O'Donnell et al. 2004; Sarver et al. 2011), we used molecular methods to determine the species of each isolate.
The conspecificity of the species was supported in a later study that used traditional and molecular methods to compare field-collected English specimens and an extensive range of herbarium material collected from around the world.
