1. Detection of mutations conferring resistance to linezolid in <em>Enterococcus</em> spp. by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Publications)

   Detection of mutations conferring resistance to linezolid in <em>Enterococcus</em> spp. by fluorescence in situ hybridization

   Relevance:

   A fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay was established to detect linezolid resistance (conferred by the mutation 2576G> T in the gene coding for the 23 string of the ribosomal RNA) in enter

2. The mitochondrial genomes of the zoonotic canine filarial parasites<em> Dirofilaria (Nochtiella) repens</em> and <em>Candidatus</em> Dirofilaria... (Publications)

   The mitochondrial genomes of the zoonotic canine filarial parasites<em> Dirofilaria (Nochtiella) repens</em> and <em>Candidatus</em> Dirofilaria (Nochtiella) hongkongensis provide evidence for presence of cryptic species

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Cutaneous dirofilariosis is a canine mosquito-borne zoonosis that can cause larva migrans disease in humans. Dirofilaria repens is considered an emerging pathogen occurring with high preva

   Fluorescence in situ hybridization for rapid identification of <em>Achromobacter xylosoxidans</em> and <em>Alcaligenes faecalis</em> recovered from cystic fibrosis patients

   Relevance:

   Achromobacter xylosoxidans is frequently isolated from the respiratory secretions of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, but identification with biochemical tests is unreliable. We describe fluorescence in

4. Superiority of molecular techniques for identification of gram-negative, oxidase-positive rods, including morphologically nontypical <em>Pseudomonas... (Publications)

   Superiority of molecular techniques for identification of gram-negative, oxidase-positive rods, including morphologically nontypical <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em>, from patients with cystic fibrosis

   Relevance:

   Phenotypic identification of gram-negative bacteria from Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients carries a high risk of misidentification. Therefore, we compared the results of biochemical identification by API

5. Rapid detection of Brucella spp. in blood cultures by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Publications)

   Rapid detection of Brucella spp. in blood cultures by fluorescence in situ hybridization

   Relevance:

   Brucellosis is a severe systemic disease in humans. We describe a new 16S rRNA-based fluorescence in situ hybridization assay that facilitates rapid and specific detection of all human pathogenic spec

   <em>Schistosoma mansoni</em> in schoolchildren in a Madagascan highland school assessed by PCR and sedimentation microscopy and Bayesian estimation of sensitivities and specificities

   Relevance:

   Madagascar is an endemic area for schistosomiasis, but recent prevalence data are scarce. We investigated stool samples of 410 children aged 4-18 years from a combined primary and secondary school in

   Stakeholders perspectives on perceived needs and priorities for leprosy control and care, Tamil Nadu, India

   Relevance:

   Although leprosy has been declared as eliminated in India, treated patients with persisting disabilities still require care. With the shift from vertical to integrated services, questions remain about

    Maternal and newborn healthcare providers in rural Tanzania: in-depth interviews exploring influences on motivation, performance and job satisfaction

    Relevance:

    INTRODUCTION: Major improvements in maternal and neonatal health (MNH) remain elusive in Tanzania. The causes are closely related to the health system and overall human resource policy. Just 35% of th
