Host-pathogen adhesion as the basis of innovative diagnostics for emerging pathogens (2021)
Journal Article
van Belkum, A., Almeida, C., Bardiaux, B., Barrass, S. V., Butcher, S. J., Çaykara, T., …Linke, D. (2021). Host-pathogen adhesion as the basis of innovative diagnostics for emerging pathogens. Diagnostics, 11(7), Article 1259. https://doi.org/10.3390/diagnostics11071259

Infectious diseases are an existential health threat, potentiated by emerging and re-emerging viruses and increasing bacterial antibiotic resistance. Targeted treatment of infectious diseases requires precision diagnostics, especially in cases where...

FISH and chips: a review of microfluidic platforms for FISH analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Rodriguez-Mateos, P., Azevedo, N. F., Almeida, C., & Pamme, N. (2020). FISH and chips: a review of microfluidic platforms for FISH analysis. Medical Microbiology and Immunology, 209(3), 373-391. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00430-019-00654-1

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) allows visualization of specific nucleic acid sequences within an intact cell or a tissue section. It is based on molecular recognition between a fluorescently labeled probe that penetrates the cell membrane... Read More about FISH and chips: a review of microfluidic platforms for FISH analysis.
