2. Safety and Stability of Samples Stored on Filter Paper for Molecular Arbovirus Diagnosis
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiAbstract : Expanding urbanization, climate change, and population growth contribute to increased transmission and spread of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses), many of which cause severe disease in humans. Pathogenic arboviruses include dengue, Zika, tick-borne encephalitis, and sindbis viruses, which together threaten more than half the global population. READ MORE

5. Species identification and pathogen detection by FLUIDIGM, a high-throughput PCR technique in ticks collected from northern Sweden
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public HealthAbstract : Due to the environmental climate changes, northern Sweden is potentially a geographical area where new tick species could become established and introduce along with them new tick-borne pathogens. High-throughput real-time PCR, FLUIDIGM, was selected to perform the pathogen detection in this study. READ MORE
