1. Sensitive Real-Time Detection
of
Salmonella Typhimurium
Salmonella is a gram negative enterobacteria that can cause salmonellosis, a serious bacterial toxi-infection syndrome. Approximately 40,000 cases of salmonellosis, and an estimated 400 associated deaths, are reported in the United States annually.
|
| Current detection methods for Salmonella contamination in foodstuffs
often require extensive sample preparation and prolonged assay
procedures. Development of rapid, specific, and sensitive methods for
detection of Salmonella is essential for public health protection, risk
assessment and disease management. |

2. Detection of Total Prostate
Specific Antigen in Serum
Employing the QCMA-1 Molecular Analysis System in Point-of-Care testing for prostate cancer diagnosis
|
Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer for European men,
with 301,500 cases reported annually1. Early detection is critical as
there is no cure once it spreads to other
organs. Increased levels
of prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a primary indicator of prostate
malignancy, making it an ideal biomarker for cancer diagnosis. As PSA
testing is typically performed in centralized laboratories using slow
and expensive procedures, there is a need to develop a fast, simple and
cost effective detection methods. |
