    摘要: Provided are integrated automated systems for quantitative and/or qualitative microbiological assessment and/or analyte assessment of samples using in situ generated culture devices. The systems comprise: an integrated automated system comprising sterile media and/or buffer reagents, culture device parts, and automated components for media and/or buffer handling, test sample handling, culture device assembly, and microbial enumeration and/or detection, all within a sterile environment; and one or more processors; and memory, including computer-executable instructions that, if executed by the one or more processors, cause the integrated automated system to determine that a coded test sample, loaded into the system, is to be quantitatively and/or qualitatively assessed, and accordingly process and microbiologically assess the coded test sample using, for quantitative assessment, one or more specified in situ generated culture devices for quantitative assessment, thereby eliminating the need to sterilize, ship, store, and/or open ex situ fabricated culture devices prior to inoculation thereof.

    摘要: The invention describes a method for determining how to stimulate, monitor and/or inhibit virus production in whole blood culture. The invention relates to a test kit for performing the method and to the use of a suitable blood sampling system. The system can be used to determine how to activate or target latently HIV-infected cells, for clinical management of HIV treatments and for personalized therapeutic strategies.

    摘要: The present invention relates to vesicles derived from genus Morganella bacteria and a use thereof, the present inventors experimentally confirmed that the vesicles were significantly decreased in clinical samples derived from patients with a malignant disease such as gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer and lymphoma, a cardiovascular disease such as myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, variant angina, and stroke, diabetes mellitus, and Parkinson's disease as compared to normal persons, and the vesicles suppressed the secretion of inflammatory mediators by pathogenic vesicles and suppressed the occurrence of cancer, so that the vesicles derived from genus Morganella bacteria may be usefully used for the purpose of developing a method for diagnosing a malignant disease such as gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer and lymphoma, a cardiovascular disease such as myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, variant angina, and stroke, diabetes mellitus, and Parkinson's disease, and a composition for preventing or treating the diseases or an inflammatory disease.
