The specimens were documented with different methods adapted to the special requirements of each specimen (see table 1).
This article reviews the requirements in terms of specimen preparation, imaging, and image analysis for quantitative FSM (qFSM) experiments.
The requirement of double serum specimens has limited its usage for diagnosis.
The design of a large aquarium must take into account the requirements of the specimens, especially since exhibits at modern aquariums include all types of aquatic organisms: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates as well as fishes.
Compared with traditional methods, this microfluidic system demonstrates the advantages of faster detection, requirement of fewer amount of specimens and reagents, much compact design and lower cost as well as lower risks for human errors.
Small sample input requirement facilitates testing of specimens with limited collection volume.
Staff involved in rapid electron microscopy should be vaccinated for multiple agents, including smallpox and hepatitis B. While rapid electron microscopy may be performed with any type of specimen, the requirement for truly rapid electron microscopic diagnosis is not common.
Improving case detection by other diagnostic techniques such as gastric lavage or nasopharyngeal aspiration and sputum induction, or strings tests are limited by the requirement of overnight fasting, repeated specimens, attendance at the clinic and similarly restrained by the need for culture of the specimen [ 25, 26].
The standard for a DNA barcode (http://www.barcoding.si.edu/PDF/DWG_data_standards-Final.pdf) contains a set of sequence quality requirements in addition to increased scrutiny of specimen data.
As new NATs converge towards the principle of lab-on-chip systems, most of the existing platforms are thus considered inadequate due to the requirement of pre-enrichment of the specimen, the reliance on prior cultivation in blood cultures and the limited antibiotic resistance testing.
